    This museum has a good mixture of historic exhibits and interactive displays. My five-year-old son who loves all forms of transportation could have spent hours here although he did mainly enjoy sinking the container ship in the cargo loading simulator. The ship simulator looks amazing but it only operates at weekends and you have to collect a ticket at 1pm to get a place - we visited on a weekday so didn't get chance.

    Informative and interactive! It is a fun and loving environment and my children loved it here. The harbour view is also stunning. I did not even know there was a museum here until last year. Quiet which is nice in a bustling city.
