Cutty Sark Tickets
Step aboard the world's last surviving tea clipper and experience one of London's most remarkable maritime attractions. The Cutty Sark in Greenwich offers visitors access to a meticulously restored 19th-century sailing ship that once raced across the seas between Britain and China during the height of the tea trade. This legendary vessel stands as a testament to British naval engineering and provides an authentic glimpse into the golden age of sail.
Your visit takes you through multiple decks of the ship, from the crew quarters where sailors lived and worked to the cargo holds that once carried precious tea and wool. Interactive displays and multimedia presentations bring the ship's history to life, telling stories of dangerous voyages, fierce competition between clipper ships, and the skilled seamanship required to navigate these fast vessels. The highlight is walking beneath the ship's hull, suspended above ground level, giving you a unique perspective of the sleek design that made Cutty Sark one of the fastest ships of its time.
Highlights
- Explore all decks of the restored ship including crew quarters and cargo holds
- Walk beneath the ship's hull in the specially designed viewing area
- Interactive exhibitions about the tea trade and 19th-century maritime commerce
- Original artefacts and the ship's magnificent figurehead
- Audio guide included with detailed commentary in multiple languages
