What are your plans for half term? Come on board HMS Belfast!

We have activities across the holiday that will educate and entertain, no matter if you're seven, seventeen or seventy. All included for no additional charge when you book your tickets to come on board.

On top of these, you'll also be able to explore all nine decks of HMS Belfast.

Climb down 15ft below the waterline of the Thames and get up close to engines that powered the ship as she travelled the world. Take in unique views of London from the flag deck and don't forget to get your photo in the captain's chair on your way!

You'll also hear stories of D-Day, the Arctic Convoys and the Korean War from those that lived and worked on board.

Don't forget that you can save 10% on tickets when you book on our website.
