Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

Hello George
Thanks for your excellent feedback on the College Discovery Tour and in particular Kevin, one of our talented volunteer tour guides.
The Search and Rescue Command simulator is definitely one of the highlights and glad that you got a chance to be the helm! Great that you got to see our crew training for their emergency procedures exercises as well.
Hope to welcome you back for a tour of the All Weather Lifeboat Centre, where you can see the world-class Shannon lifeboat being built.
Best regards

Very interesting and informative tour. Got to see the outside area, classrooms, the very impressive training pool, the mechanical/engine training maintenance training facility and a 'trip' in the wheelhouse of the lifeboat simulator. Very good and knowledgeable tour guide and great value for money. Gives you a comprehensive overview of the fantastic lifesaving work done by the RNLI. Recommended. We have also booked the lifeboat manufacturing tour as well.

Organised a Tour of the RNLI College for the Science & Technology Group of Purbeck U3A. The tour took a little over 90 minutes and started in the morning at 10:30. We were split into two groups each with an allocated Tour Guide who with enthusiasm, knowledge and expertise showed us round the College, including some of the areas where trainees learn new lifeboat skills. Unfortunately there were none in the large swimming pool sized tank at the time of our visit and our Guide said that this is often the case on Wednesdays. Wish I’d known this when I booked the Tour back in April! We had to be satisfied with a rather poor video of tank activities on a small screen. However the Lifeboat Simulator was available for us to enter and experience what it’s like to be travelling through rough seas off shore from Dover to aid a large tanker on fire. For most of us the simulator was the highlight of the tour. Our tour ended in a workshop where lifeboat engines were serviced - including the special propulsion equipment used in the latest Shannon Class lifeboats (which don’t use propellors). Use was made of the restaurant and bar at the College by some of us to complete an enjoyable morning.

Hello Chris
Thank you for taking the time to review our Discovery Tour so fully and thank you also for your photos and your comments about our volunteer tour guide.
Seeing the wet training in the pool is always a bonus and the schedule of 2,000 slots over the year for Emergency Crew Training which is now compulsory for all crew before they can go out on a shout, does provide us with some challenges to coordinate tours around the time the training is on.
Nevertheless, I hope that the simulator and tour around the live engine workshop added to your enjoyment.
Thank you for your support and hope to see you back at the college again soon.
Best regards

Most enjoyable tour with Evelyn. She was so passionate and knowledgeable. So interesting to see the facilities and hear what training the volunteer crews have to receive. The simulator is excellent, just a shame I get motion sickness!

The tour currently costs £7.50. We always recommend booking in advance for the college discovery tour and the factory tour (of the All weather lifeboat centre). Thanks

Hi on the tour could you try on a drysuit and all the gear and have a photo taken ? If not can you give a donation to put a suit on and have a photo taken ?
Skrevet 29. august 2022
This wasn't offered as any option or possibility.
The tour lasts about 90 minutes and I don't think there would be time to do this.
The tour is a pretty full 90 minutes and you do cover a bit of ground.
You could ask - you never know.

Apologies for the delay in responding. You can contact our reception team on 0300 300 7654.
We look forward to welcoming you to the RNLI College

Is the tour appropriate for a 5 year old and 2 year old please?
Thanks

Not really. The recommended minimum age is 10yrs, as the tour is based on seeing RNLI operational areas and learning about they operates.
