HMS Warrior is a personal favorite for student tours because it is a transitional ship. Visitors often arrive without knowing whether to expect the age of sail or something later. That uncertainty leaves them surprised by many of its features. Students visiting Victory tend to bring a fixed picture of the ship, which a tour must first challenge.
