The Golden HindeSir Francis Drake completed the second-ever circumnavigation of the world between 1577-80 in a galleon ship called The Golden Hinde. The ship has been re-created and rebuilt as a museum, which is docked in Southwark near London Bridge. Guided tours are provided by staff dressed in period costume, and during term-time school groups can spend a day on board learning about life at sea in the 16th century. Visitors can also stay on the ship overnight to get a hands-on taste of what life as a crew member would be like. They will be able to help out on the boat, and learn about navigation and gunnery. At night after a feast of Tudor foods, visitors sleep between the cannons on the gundeck.
