Over the extended holiday weekend of 2nd to 5th of June PS Medway Queen will be open on all four days with additional attractions to make your visit more enjoyable. Admission times and charges are not changed, it’s 11am to 4pm with last admission 3pm – same as the usual Saturdays. Ship tours will run as usual so start your visit at the Medway Queen Visitor Centre where some limited car parking is available. Medway Queen is moored at Gillingham Pier, Kent. ME7 1RX.
In addition to the guided tours we have arranged a series of additional attractions which are now listed on our diary page. There will be a sale of maritime prints and photos at sensible prices (come early in the weekend if you are interested), cream teas served on board and chances to see Pam and Mark’s historical presentation on our ship’s amazing history at certain times.
