Great day out and good value even in this time of watching every penny. The Boat trip was wonderful and well informed regarding its history as a Little Ship at Dunkirk. Good place for children, pets and those with wheelchair needs although might be a issue getting on board the boat.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNot sure
Pay the extra for the boat trip, you won't be disappointed! Friendly team working there. Some good exhibits; we especially liked watching the talking-head videos/interviews with gentlemen that had worked the canals. Good price cafe just inside the entrance with seating inside and out. We went as a couple no kids with us and would recommend to anyone spending some time in Gloucester.
Great place to know history about docks. Once you buy the ticket, it will be valid for a whole year and you can visit it as many times as you want.... How amazing!!! It's a huge place to cover in a day, if you are also visiting other places in Gloucester, so plan your day accordingly.
Very informative museum, lots to see regarding canals and waterways, good history of waterways in and around Gloucester. The surrounding area around museum, the rejuvanation of the docks is fantastic, the old warehouses may have been altered from their original purpose but are still emblazoned with their original warehouse names, lots to see and do.
Great museum on canal history and Gloucester's place in it. Super trip around the dock and up the canal on a little Dunkirk boat.
Great Museum! Lots of exhibits and displays, interactive, very informative, with narrow boats inside and ships outdoors with fab gift shop and lovely, always happy to share knowledge staff

An excellent museum telling the story of Gloucester docks, the canals and the people who worked on them. Very friendly and welcoming staff and lots to do for children including trails, activities and play opportunities.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
If you're interested in the history of inland waterways, you find quite a few things to look at here. However, the exhibition is not very large, only covering one and a half floors of a much larger building. The boat trip extra charge is very good, although not exactly picturesque as it runs through an industrial areas and a modern housing estate. It's made worthwhile by the excellent commentary from the skipper, the operation of a lift bridge and a swing bridge, and the fact that the Queen Bouccida II is a Dunkirk Little Ship.
