What to see in Bristol

Must-sees

Bristol was one of England’s great ports, and its historic harbour is now the centre of city life. There you can visit the SS Great Britain, the first great iron screw-propelled ship, the M Shed museum and the We The Curious science centre.

In Clifton, Isambard Kingdom Brunel’s suspension bridge spans the Avon Gorge. Bristol is also Banksy’s city, and his murals are scattered around Stokes Croft and the centre. St Nicholas Market is perfect for lunch.

Free tours and guided visits

Bristol has guided city tours, street-art and Banksy tours, and harbour boat trips. Bath is fifteen minutes away by train, and there are excursions that combine both.

How long to spend

Two days cover the harbour, Clifton and the street art. With a third you can go to Bath or Wells.

Where to stay

The harbour and the centre are the most practical, and Clifton the most elegant. Near Temple Meads station there are chain hotels.
