Reviews of The Mayflower Museum

P. E.

This is a fab museum. The interpretation is very sensitive to the indiginous population in its pilgrim fathers story. The narrative is surprising, and very different to that traditionally told. Congratulations to the curators for pulling together a fascinating and inclusive exhibition. A must see in Plymouth.

M. M.

Pretty good interesting place for a visit for an hour when on the Barbican.

A. C.

This little museum above Plymouth's Tourist Information Centre gives a thorough but concise history of the Mayflower and the Pilgrims with some great little interactive bits for kids and big kids too! The model shop of the Mayfliwer is spectacular as is the view of the harbour from the third floor! Only £3 entry and well worth it!

M. D.

Good little museum. £8 for a family of 4 so it's not going to take hours to get around. Yes it could be better but it does encourage you to learn more.

N. C.

Okay but does take long to read what is there and you are done

M. T. p.

Ah a little gem this. Really educational. We had little kids with us so thought it was a risk but lots for them to do.

a. A.

A small display given there is not alot to put on display for the public, other than the story to tell. The small admission fee helps.

Very informative place very kind and nice stuff reasonable price actually very cheap awesome visit

P. T.

Fantastic exhibition, lots of little details you may not be aware of.

D. J.

Not very good for disabled young children but good for disabled students and adults. A lot of information but no children friendly guides in shop.

K. K.

Loved our trip to the Mayflower museum. Educational and fun, and great ticket prices.

M. H.

Has a load of interesting facts. Very little interactive displays.

S.

This museum is very interesting but I think he's a little short.

R. L.

Nice little museum. Very informative and good thing for children to do. Worth the entrance price, which is reasonable

S. J.

One word Heaven

S.

Really interesting visit. Not cheap for a family but you don't get to see things like this everyday. Very well thought out with excellent access for all. A wander through the dockyard is worth going alone to be honest if you just love boats!

W. S.

Very good for the price, good thing to do for half and hour to keep the kids entertained for a while. If you read the walls and take in all the information you can stay for around an hour. Would recommend especially for the prices.

S. C.

I liked the museum, everything is interesting and informative, we will definitely come back.

k. s.

Was a nice place £9 for the 3 of us and baby was free. It was short and sweet with nice views

S. F.

Great place to visit for an hour or two. Give all the signs a good read, you’ll learn some interesting history!

L. B.

I didn't visit the Museum itself, although it would be an interesting place for visitors. At £3.00 for adults and £1.50 for children prices are reasonable for a tourist attraction. A family ticket (2 + 3) can be purchased for £8.00. The Tourist Information has a lot of information about local places of interest and staff are friendly and helpful. They also sell a range of souvenirs which are different to those available in the usual souvenir shops.

k. K.

Took a short break near may flower steps nice warm bank holiday afternoon

E.

Definitely worth a trip! Very informative, reasonably priced ⛵️

S. C.

A beautifully kept little museum. The staff are outstanding- friendly, knowledgeable, helpful. The museum obviously aims for the local population, especially children, as well as tourists

C. W.

Small, but informative and only about £3 each. Worth checking out if you're interested in the story and can spare the time

P. T.

I've visited the gift shop but not the museum.

H. B.

Really cheap, went in as a group of students and had a great laugh. Brilliant view at the top balcony and great interactive museum. Fun for the kids.

E. N.

Very interesting, and a hit with our 6 and 3 year old children, plenty to interact with.

M. B.

Great value museum with interesting things to see and do for the whole family. Expect to spend around an hour here and you'll get to see and do pretty much everything.

D. G.

Good for the money, quite small but packed with information. Very educational to Plymothians aswell as visitors.

History based place.expensive for gifts as we found cheaper else where.ok for a look round out of the rain.we bought a tea light holder from here,lit for 10 secs ,nearly burn place down.really not safe.

(Translated) A small but exciting museum about the Mayflowers journey across the Atlantic and their subsequent colonization. Many millions of Americans are believed to be descended from the people who arrived on the Mayflower. Definitely worth the £3 (adult price, children are half price and students also get a discount) on a day of rain or where the sun might not be shining as much. More fun activities for the little ones. (Original) Et lille, men spændende museum omhandlende Mayflowers togt over Atlanterhavet, og deres efterfølgende kolonisering. Mange millioner amerikanere menes at stamme fra de personer, der ankom med Mayflower. Helt sikkert £3 værd (pris for voksne, børn er til halv pris og studerende får også rabat) på en dag med regn, eller hvor solen måske ikke skinner så meget. Flere sjove aktiviteter for de mindste.

Ein kleines aber feines Museum. Man erfährt viel über die Geschichte der Mayflower, jedoch ist es kein Muss bei einem Besuch in Plymouth. (Translated) A small but fine museum. You can learn a lot about the history of the Mayflower, but it's not a must when visiting Plymouth.

(Translated) Interesting visit but a bit short! (Original) Visite intéressante mais un peu courte !

(Translated) The Mayflower ship museum does not have any interesting exhibits, but it tells the story of the settlers to the New World well and in detail. Walking through the few halls of the museum, you feel like you are on the pages of a children's book. There are many interactive exhibits for children. (Original) Музей корабля Mayflower не обладает никакими интересными экспонатами, но хорошо и подробно рассказывает историю переселенцев в Новый Свет. Гуляя по немногочисленными залам музея, чувствуешь себя будто на страницах детской книги. Для детей много интерактивных экспонатов.
