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.

Tried to book this tour in the past for the all weather boat build but it is popular. Luckily we managed to get on today and thoroughly enjoyed it. Very informative and to be able to see the full process of a build from start to finish is fascinating. Our Guide was very knowledgeable and took us all through at a gentle pace. There are stairs to go up the levels but there is a lift available for less able. Considering this is a working boat yard the workshops are very clean and well organised a credit to the ladies and gents who work there. Very educational and would highly recommend. Enjoy it if you go!

Fantastic tour with a very knowledgeable tour guide. Also got to be hands on and allowed those that wanted to have a go on the training simulator.

Second time on both tours but still learned new facts and figures from the excellent guides, Carolyn and Chris who both certainly "know their stuff". These really are hands-on tours through areas which are in the full working environment, particularly on the ALC tour where you are in touching distance of the boats being built or maintained. It provides a whole new perspective on the work which the RNLI undertakes - and the simulator on the College tour will make your realise how much the crews put their own lives at risk to save others. Brilliant

Really terrific tour. Plenty of information and all served up by a lovely gentleman with a great sense of humour and a twinkle in his eye. The training pool was an eyeopener but nothing could have beaten the simulator. What an experience and I would be happy to do it all again. If I do I will get there in time to have breakfast which looked delicious. I had fish and chips for lunch which was well cooked and of course there was a terrific view. All in all a splendid day and to be repeated.

So glad we did this tour, it was so informative and gave an excellent insight into the extensive training given to the lifeboat crew. As well as an in depth tour of the college. Our tour guide Chris was a friendly very knowledgeable volunteer.
The trip in the lifeboat simulator was a fantastic experience. One not to be missed !!
Would have loved to see the wave pool in action, perhaps next time !!

Travelled down from Derbyshire especially for the tour as my son (18) is interested in an apprenticeship with the RNLI. We stayed a night at the college/hotel (which was fantastic!) and then did the tour the next morning.
Our guide (Nick) went above and beyond throughout the tour, going into great depth with explanations and real life stories as we toured the amazing facilities. There were plenty of opportunities to ask questions and seeing the training pool, and the lifeboat simulator were particular highlights.
At the end of the tour, Nick also made time to show us the All Weather Lifeboat Centre (which was closed as it was a weekend) - this was a huge bonus as we had travelled so far to see the facilities.
Overall, a great visit and gave us a much deeper appreciation for an incredible charity.

We had an excellent tour of the training college including the rescue simulator. Our guides were volunteers that were very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and passionate about the college and what the RNLI do. After the tour we had booked a lunch for the 30 people in our party which everyone enjoyed. We were on a WI holiday from Leicestershire.

Well, what an excellent way to spend 2 hours. Our tour guide was Nick - so informative and made us feel so welcome. One of the young members of our group was a huge fan of Saving Lives at Sea and I think she may be an even bigger fan now. Well worth a visit even if you have to travel (we're from Cardiff) and the best £7.50 we have ever spent. Will definitely go back and next time we will stay at the College and maybe do another tour (it was THAT good). Thank you RNLI - you are amazing.

During half term we did both the Discovery Tour and the All Weather Lifeboat building centre tour.
So much information about the amazing work undertaken in building and refurbishing the current fleet of boats. Any budding engineer would appreciate the work that goes into these builds.
Followed by a look around the college on the Discovery Tour we were lucky enough to see some training in the sea survival pool (recovering from a capsized boat), have a chance to 'drive' a boat in the simulator and learn about the work undertaken abroad to educate people about drowning risks etc.
If you ever doubted the work of the RNLI and their many heroic volunteers these tours will show how dedicated, professional and brave they need to he to 'Save Lives at Sea'
Our guides were knowledgeable, engaging and welcoming and never forget that money spent here contributes to help keep up this organisations amazing work.

We were staying at the RNLI College Hotel over the weekend and attended the Discovery Tour as part of our trip. We are a family of 4 with 2 young children (aged 7 and 9). Our son is huge fan of the RNLI so this holiday was a special birthday treat for him. We all thoroughly enjoyed the tour and found it very interesting. Evelyn was our tour guide and she was fantastic! We all found it very informative and fun. We particularly enjoyed seeing the Sea Survival Pool and having a go in the All Weather Lifeboat Simulator. Evelyn was great at encouraging the children to take part and interact throughout the tour. She managed to keep their attention for the 90+ minutes and we all loved it. Thank you, Evelyn! Fantastic to see the amazing work of the RNLI and how they train these brave volunteers.

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 ?

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.

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