I went to Discovery Point as part of a coach trip with Lochs and Glens. I found all the staff to be very friendly and helpful and it was a very interesting experience. I thought walking around the ship was great and a real privilege and I also enjoyed my visit to cafe there.

Superb location. It looks amazing from outside. Visitors centre inside is ok to be honest. Not a lot to see and a bit disappointing how thin it is. There is a great story to be told here and I don't think it conveys it. Discovery the boat. Awesome, it's been saved and put in a dry dock but I'd like to see a bit more history. Perhaps a audio tour or some more to read. Thanks, but could be so much better.

Just across the road from the railway station and next to the Dundee V&A. The tour of Discovery is worth going for on its own. Fascinating to see of the early discoverers lived in very cramped quarters and extreme conditions

I was initially sceptical but what a place this is. You could easily spend all day here in the museum/visitors centre, totally immersed in the history of the time. It really makes you proud that Dundee and our country was at the forefront of polar exploration. What these men managed is nothing short of sheer brilliance. After exploring the interactive rooms and watching several short videos, it have you sufficient detail to then step aboard and explore the ship itself. Discovery is a work of beauty and it’s a testament to the staff and the charity she is at pride of place today. A stone throw from Dundee train station and literally next door to the V&A, what are you waiting for?!

I was here as a young teen twice where it had left a huge impression on me. The ship is still as beautiful and the museum is still great [although I remember a piece of Antarctic ice being in a beautiful glass pyramid being there]. Has a good combination of high quality films to give the history and then more traditional story boards and exhibits. You can feel the sense of pride and love over this Dundee built ship and the city's contribution to early Antarctic exploration. Will definitely be back with the family as I want to do my Xmas shopping in the museum shop. Also has very reasonable priced Scandi like cafe which cured me hangover with the chicken noodle soup.

Absolutely overjoyed with my visit to Discovery Point and onboard RSS Discovery. I didn’t know anything about Antarctic exploration and the museum gives a fascinating insight into this piece of history. The museum is laid out so well that it truly transports you to the era and tells a fascinating story. That being said, I enjoyed the first part of the space more, as I felt it got a bit confusing learning about the Discovery in later life. There is a lot of interaction with videos to watch and it feels like a great place to visit either solo or with a family. It was great to go onto the RSS Discovery, although I felt there could have been a little bit more information points and I was left wondering what I was looking at times. Lovely staff on the front desk, shop and in the cafe. This is 100% worth the price, with a joint ticket available to the Verdant Works and the price is for an annual ticket, which is great.

World class exhibition. Phenomenal, you'll need 2hrs here - at least. Even better than I imagined. I was really rushing and there's a lot to read and watch and was struggling to complete it all in 90 minutes. Extremely educational for all ages. One of the best exhibitions I've been to. Well done to everyone involved. Unfortunately I never had time to go up into the dome and you'll need to book a slot for this. This is one of the many reasons to come and visit Dundee

This trip to see the Discovery should best be done on a beautiful summer's day but my visit in September was close to perfect could be. The Royal Research Ship Discovery was one of the last wooden three-masted, barque rigged sailing ships to be built in Britain. As a major whaling centre Dundee’s shipyards had long experience of constructing ships robust enough to travel through the Arctic pack ice. Over 100 years after this ship was built it is now back home resting in Dundee.

I have always been fascinated by the stories of the exploration in the Antarctic so was very excited to see the ship, Discovery, which took Scott and Shackleton there in 1901. The ship was inspiring especially seeing the dining saloon and the cabins. However the ship is in poor condition and needs money spent on it. Would be a worthy National Lottery project. There are extensive exhibitions about the construction of the ship and the lives of the men on the ship.

An absolute must-do in Dundee (even though it hadn't been on the list before we went)! Fabulous location next to the V&A. The exhibitions are really well done and, along with several short films, provide a great insight into the Discovery’s Antarctic journey. I knew various bits of Scott and Shackleton’s adventures but it pulled them altogether for me. Being able to walk around the ship was a huge thrill – it would have been anyway but was all the more so for having understand its history and adventures. I loved the Officers’ Wardroom and cabins, and being on deck admiring the masts and rigging. There was an unexpected finale, needing to be time-slot booked (free) but definitely not to be missed. On the top floor, the Discovery Dome was opened last year and now houses a permanent Gaia (the World installation by Luke Gerram), which I’d been planning to try to see on its tour around the country sometime! There’s a 7-minute soundtrack for it, followed by a film about the development of Dundee, before the blinds are lifted for a spectacular 360 degree view of the city and river. Would 100% recommend a visit!
