The highlight to our group's day trip. We were given a tour around the Old Royal Naval College by Giulio, who explained the history and art in great and interesting detail. The Painted Hall is a must-see, especially when accompanied by one so knowledgeable and engaging. All thoroughly enjoyed the tour, and we would definitely recommend to anyone finding themselves on the south side of the river.

Another overpriced tourist attraction. Exterior architecture is great but you are paying to only see a couple of rooms. Painted Hall is impressive but not that impressive! Apparently, our ticket gives us access for a year but why would I want to go back?

We spent two hours here and wish we had more time; the Old Royal Naval College is amazing and so beautiful! We had two tours (included in the price of our ticket): one of the Painted Hall and also then 600 years of history which took us round the grounds. Our tour guide was Jim; he was informative, enthusiastic and an excellent storyteller! Excellent value for money, the gift shop and staff were all lovely!
