Viewed the Warrior as part of the Ultimate Shipyard Ticket. Really fabulous ship, but what made it for us was the actors on board sharing their ‘on ship’ experiences. Really good fun and a great visit.

It's been a dream of mine to visit the ship and it certainly didn't disappoint. Imposing and impressive from the outside, it was fascinating inside and every single member of the crew or staff were helpful and knowlegable. Despite having read about this ship I learned so much while there. Standout hit was the in-character crew, we ended up having a long and detailed conversation with one of the gun crew which was thoroughly enlightening.

I was reluctant to go at first as I wanted to go on HMS Victory (we only had time for one more!) but I am so glad we did. You could wander around freely and enjoy every aspect of the ship. The best bit though, that made this such a great experience, were the character crew. They were enthusiastic, knowledgeable and completely in character. They knew the 'big' stuff but also had so many anecdotes that were funny, interesting and informative. We spoke to the lieutenant for ages and he was amazing, I could have listened to him all day! Excellent attraction!

Absolutely fantastic!! We met with station 27 leader Mr knight. His knowledge was phenominal regarding the ship and the day to day life aboard. When you are in the company of someone who not only knows thier subject but is so enthusiastic, it is catching. We learned so much. I recommend this trip to all who venture to the Historic Dockyard

Of all the places you can visit at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard HMS Warrior was our favourite. I thought Victory would have been a close contender, but there was a couple things that put me off Victory. HMS Warrior is huge and you can visit every deck; The upper deck, main deck, lower deck, and the hold. Obviously there are a lot of steep stairs to get up and down the decks. I loved that there wasn’t an audio guide (like Victory) but I wish there had been a few information boards in certain areas to give a bit more insight and information about what part of the ship you were in and what it was used for. Having said that I did find a kind of leaflet thing, made to look like a newspaper which I wish I’d found earlier as it was a good guide. Personally speaking I’d have left these leaflets right at the top of the ramp you have to ascend to get on the ship, that way you have it right at the start of your exploration. All in all I would say this is the one you MUST visit.

It’s Eddie the bear here leaving my review. Today the sun was shining and I returned back to Portsmouth Historic Dockyard to visit HMS Warrior. What a majestic ship this is - they had historic people on board telling us about what life would have been like on the ship. One of the volunteers suggested I try a hammock out for size. I was a little naughty bear as I attempted to climb a ladder - I would not recommend this as I soon realised I had got stuck! Everyone was very friendly too - if you get the chance then definitely pay them a visit. 5*

Brilliant visit very interesting. Staff very knowledgeable and friendly. Three decks to visit everyone different. Plenty of steps to navigate but not difficult. Don’t forget to visit the art shop on the way out amazing pictures.

Our visit to HMS warrior was so interesting. |There was so much to see and all aspects of life on deck, the workings of the boat, the historical context were all brought to life so well by actors in character with different jobs on the ship. They were brilliant at talking about their life on board and giving stories about their jobs as well as demonstrations. They were the real highlight and you could've asked them anything and they'd have been able to tell you - they know so much and tell their stories so well. Thank you for making it such a fun day

The stunning HMS Warrior forms part of the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard - a home it shares with a number of other historic vessels, museums and attractions. As part of my visit I also saw the thrilling HMS Victory but, to my mind - and this might almost be blasphemous to say - on a purely aesthetic basis, Warrior is the more impressive and beautiful of the two. And, whilst Victory clearly trumps Warrior in the history stakes, Warrior still has a very interesting career behind her as a formidable Victorian warship and an exploration of her several accessible decks evokes that past vividly. Contrasting her with Victory is interesting in itself and I strongly recommend anyone visiting the dock to make sure they see both.
