Somewhat pricey but definitely worth it! Audio guide is included and although we normally prefer to skip those, I'm glad we listened to these. The information is relevant and not too fussy, with a sprinkling of fun details. The ship itself is well maintained and there's plenty to see, especially for those interested in the royal family.

Beautifully presented history of a very famous yacht. It's kept in pristine shape. Nice audio guide with museum-like narration. The tea room is a nice place to take a break halfway through the walking tour of all 5 decks

Really interesting with audio guide. Just enough information without getting bogged down in detail. Fascinating to see how the Royal Family lived aboard. Staff in smart uniform & very helpful. Classy shop with no tat!

Very interesting few hours. £16.50 per adult. A great snapshot of a royal era. Excellent and helpful staff. I suspect the tour only covers about 50% of the ship. Recommended.

Loved my visit here. Luckily we were first in the queue and hardly saw anyone else!! That meant you could have a good look around! Some areas quite restricted but it was nice to get a feel for life on the yacht! The lady at the fudge kiosk was lovely and so friendly. In fact all the staff were. Recommended whilst in Edinburgh
