The Royal Yacht Britannia served the British Royal Family for more than 40 years, travelling over one million miles to every corner of the globe. Now you are welcome on board to experience this floating palace for yourself discovering the heart and soul of a very special royal residence.
Described by the BBC as Scotland's leading visitor-friendly attraction, you will receive a truly warm welcome at Britannia's Visitor Centre on the second floor of Edinburgh's stunning Ocean Terminal waterfront shopping centre. Here you will discover Britannia's fascinating past before collecting your audio handset and stepping on board Britannia, a privilege previously reserved for guests of Her Majesty The Queen and the Royal Family.
The personal self-led audio tour will enable you to enjoy the Yacht's five decks, providing you with a rare glimpse into the life of the British Royal Family. Starting at the Bridge and finishing at the gleaming Engine Room, you can discover the reality behind life and work on board this Royal Yacht. Highlights include the State Dining Room, The Queen's Bedroom, the Admiral's Suite and Crew's Quarters.
