Bristol's harbourside is a popular destination, with nearly everything worth doing here free to walk, making it an ideal spot for a budget-friendly day out. The SS Great Britain is the one ticket that earns its price, and it's a year-long pass, which changes the value maths. This article is published by the Tick Taxi group, who recommend checking their website for the latest transport prices.
For a start, take a walk along the harbour. It's free, and you can take in the sights and sounds of the area.
The ferry is a good way to get around, but it's not worth booking a 'cruise' - just pay per hop instead.
