About this guide

Independent, fact-checked, updated from the port's own documents.

Facts checked October 2026 against operator sources. Prices and times change, the booking page wins.

This site is an independent guide to Southampton for cruise passengers and visitors. It is not run by ABP (the port operator), Southampton City Council or any cruise line, and it is not the city's official tourism service, which publishes its own site.

Facts come from ABP's passenger directions and live schedule, South Western Railway, National Express, Red Funnel, the museums' own ticket pages and English Heritage. Prices are the 2026 published rates on the date we checked; operators change them, so the booking page always wins.

Some links go to booking partners (transfers, hotels, trains, tours, luggage storage, insurance). Booking through them costs you nothing extra and funds the updates. We never accept payment for a listing or a review.

The domain carried the city's visitor information service from 2004 to 2013; old addresses from that site redirect to the matching page here.
