Royal Yacht Britannia (The)

After 44 years of loyal service, this yacht now bobs in serene retirement in Leith. Christened by Her Majesty the Queen in the year of her coronation, it was the last in a series of ships used by monarchs on trips abroad. On board the 126 metre long yacht, visitors can admire the Royal Apartments, the Captain's Cabin, the bridge and the Engine Room. Children will love the Kid's Mess and if you want to keep them quiet, plug them in to the audio-guide - it will amuse and educate them! The Visitor's Centre has some great interactive displays and there's a cafe and shop. Admission: adult #9.00; senior citizen #7.00; child (aged 5-17)#5.00, child under 5, free; student w/ID #5.00. Tickets must be booked in advance by telephone.
