Portsmouth Tourism, the National Trust, and Visit Britain should be sponsoring every single one of your amazing videos or at the very least offering you FREE tickets to attractions and events! Your reviews make people want to travel, explore and adventure beyond borders and comfort zones! LOL! Thank you so much for this tour and review!

[@marilys3549]

I agree with this review 👍 I live in the USA 🇺🇸 and I would someday love to visit England again. 🇬🇧

[@KirstenJoerg]

That's honestly so kind, thank you so much!

[@rubycorman469]

I agree ! 💕🇨🇦

[@barbiec4312]

I am quite literally making notes during every episode for my next trip, inspired by some of the places you’ve visited. Thank you.

[@toriladybird511]

Super excited you visited my city. Very proud of my Island City

[@LotusLady9]

Thank you Kirsten & Joerg; so glad Joerg got to fulfill his birthday wish. Love your videos!🌞

[@cindi7955]

This was a treasure.💰 So well presented and thankful Joerg received this for a birthday gift and shared his day with us. The workmanship that went into this ship is so beautiful and would be amazing to see this ship on the sea. History is so important to study and when you can view a piece of it like HMS VICTORY it truly makes history come to life.

[@KirstenJoerg]

Oh yes, it would be amazing to see the ship on the sea with all her sails up.

[@siobhanmacm]

That was a lovely stroll down memory lane for me- I visited the Victory as a young girl in the 70’s during the Tall Ship’s race. The sight of those Tall Ships in procession coming out of Portsmouth Harbour is one of the most spectacular sights I have ever seen. I loved it!!!! ❤❤

[@KirstenJoerg]

Oh wow, that's so great!

[@janelleramdial4623]

Amazing!! I was having a sad day, I thought a dose of you guys would pick me up. I came to your channel only to see you posted 1 minute ago.. Thanks for being a comfort to me. Your videos really lift my spirit.. My love to you and wishes that you will be here for a long long time ❤️💕❤️

What a beautiful ship! It appears to be in perfect condition. I can't imagine twelve more years of restoration! I love old ships, trains and museums. I was so pleased that you shared this masterpiece and with us! Love it!

[@KirstenJoerg]

It's gorgeous! Yes, it needs to be restored (an ongoing process) to keep it or it would fall apart, it's so expensive.

I was so excited that you guys took this Michigan girl into the Mary Rose museum. I have been fascinated by its history and wish so much to visit the exhibits myself. But I'm happy to have gotten a few glimpses, and so glad you two enjoyed the experience.

Thank you so much! It felt so unreal to be on the Victory.

[@Rita-cm7zc]

Wauw this is an excellent video if you want to learn something of the history of the English live at sea. Very impressive and i think its worth the money. Because that will also help to the restoration of the ships. The Victory is beautiful with all the details. I loved it .thanks again for a great video. Greetings 🌷💟🇾🇪

[@KirstenJoerg]

Thanks so much! Yes, absolutely, it's so expensive to restore and keep the ships.

I am so pleased that you loved the Portsmouth historic dockyard and visiting the area where I live. I have really enjoyed the videos that you made from around Portsmouth and The Isle of Wight. I have been to the dockyard many times and it is such an amazing place to visit and such good value for money. Thank you for sharing it with others. Thank you also for showcasing such wonderful places in the British Isles x

[@KirstenJoerg]

Thanks so much Jane! Oh it's was simply amazing, we can't wait to go back.

[@aprilninthr2886]

Loved seeing the HMS Victory. Stories about Horacio Nelson and Lady Emma Hamilton are favorites of mine. What an impressive ship it is! I guess, in the day, you would have to wear one of those hats no matter what. I thought Joerg looked very handsome! Thanks for taking us along!

[@ellaaltman2137]

Happy Belated Birthday Joerg! How wonderful that you have fulfilled a dream of a lifetime by touring the Historic Dockyard in Portsmouth. I think regardless of whether or not maritime museums are a passion, you cannot help but get caught up in the history of the era and marvel at the magnitude of what sailors (and warriors) of the day endured on the high seas in times of calm and certainly in times of war. Incredible! Thank you again both for bringing us along!

[@KirstenJoerg]

Thanks so much Ella! Oh yes, it was absolutely amazing, loved every second there.

[@stephanieruggles7783]

Thank you for this video. Wow what a huge ship. Lord Nelson knew how to sail in style. Imagine all those canons… I felt like I was diving into exactly that time when the ship was sailing and battling. Which definitely wasnt an easy task back then. What a wonderful birthday surprise for,Jörg to fulfill his childhood dream.

[@KirstenJoerg]

It was really big, we didn't film it all but it was very big.

[@kimesch9698]

Thank you for sharing your amazing day out. I am disabled and largely housebound. I love travelling vicariously through you! I want to learn more about Lord Nelson. Jorge, you look great in a nautical hat. You would have fit right in in the day.

[@KirstenJoerg]

Thank you so much, so glad you enjoyed it! Yes, Joerg served in the navy for a while and 13 years in the army (he is a captain).

[@gill2292]

Happy Birthday Joerg. Looks like you had and amazing birthday visiting these wonderful historic ships and sites. So much breathtaking history in Portsmouth. Everywhere you take us is like a living history lesson. Our small British isles has so much to offer.. thank you for another magnificent vlog.

These ships are spectacular My Dad was in Navy WWII he would’ve loved this He was on aircraft carrier

[@KirstenJoerg]

Your Dad would have loved it I'm sure.

[@yvonnegillman5095]

You bought back some wonderful memories of those ships and that whole place. My husband took me there when the Mary rose museum had just opened and we spent two days exploring, I absolutely loved aĺl of it. Such a special place and atmosphere. They made a Tv programme about the Mary rose and her crew and all the treasures they found. Fascinating.

[@KirstenJoerg]

It's such a great place, isn't it? We can't wait to go back. Oh yes, when they found the Mary Rose it was broadcasted on TV (that's what we read).

[@yvonnegillman5095]

Yes, 1982 we watched it live!!!! Its all on YT 😁

[@elizabethmcleod246]

No way he was a sailor......Joerg was a naval Captain in another life. Great video. 🥰

[@KirstenJoerg]

Hahah Joerg actually has the rank of a captain (army). Thanks so much for watching.

[@annr6495]

That was fascinating. Thank you for taking us along. The ships may be much larger today but not nearly as beautiful.

Thanks so much and yes, wholeheartedly agree.

[@carolefreeman2544]

Happy belated Birthday Joerg! 🎂🍻🎈🎉 The tour of HMS VICTORY was amazing regardless of the scaffolding, it was still a beautiful ship. It is in fabulous shape. I’m so glad it made Lord Joerg’s day. 🫡👏🏻🤩😆 I’m sure Admiral Lord Nelson would be very proud of the way his ship has been restored and that so many. It was also wonderful to see the Mary Rose remains as it was the proud ship of King Henry the 8th. Thank you again for a wonderful trip, I really enjoyed it. Till next time, take care you two. 🤗🥰🇨🇦

Thank you so much Carole! Absolutely! It would be amazing to see it with all her sails up, that must be such a sight.

Hey Kirsten & Joerg, What a wonderful Birthday Trip for a Special guy! Oh yes indeed I would have loved this excursion. I saw an old movie about Lord Nelson. Very good but also very sad. He was such a likeable man by the men under him and the people of England. It was a sad time when he died. When you enjoy Historical places you don't like to leave at least that's the way I feel. So glad your time was well spent. Again looking forward to next Video Adventure. You Across the Pond Friend Jo

Oh this brought back a funny memory. When I was touring through the HMS Victory, I was distracted by everything and the history. I kept hitting my head on the beams. One of the “sailors” on board said…”You wouldn’t hit your head if you took off your hat.” That was quite a moment for me. LOL

I LOVE OLD SAILING SHIPS however they are rigged! Hello from Portsmouth New Hampshire 😊! I cannot explain why but when I saw the Victory during the opening moments of this video a THRILL ran straight through me!!!! Over the years as I have learned more about Nelson my admiration and respect have grown. Here in Portsmouth there is what is referred to as a tall ship parade of sail (larger vessels) every summer (excluding over the last two years due to Covid) and it is a thrill to view them on the Piscataqua river here in New Hampshire and Maine. THANK YOU SO MUCH for this video, it felt like being there myself 😊!! Lovely to see Joerg’s excitement and the revelation for Kirsten that it was a truly marvelous experience!

How wonderful for Joerg to fulfill a lifelong dream, to see the great ship, HMS Victory! My husband also realized his dream to see the ship when we visited in 2018. The ticket is a wonderful idea, as there is really so much to see, and it would be nice to stay at least a couple of days in town, and really immerse into the whole scene. It’s a very exciting area to visit. It was on the Solent that my eldest son learned to sail, last year!

I'm watching your Vlog from a beautiful holiday cottage in Whitby, on the gorgeous North Yorkshire Coast. As I type, I have a wonderful view of Whitby Abbey and St Mary's Church, the church bells are ringing, the sea is blue, so must get out there and make the most of it, it's a wonderfully historic area. I'll be catching up on some more of your Vlogs later this evening.

Portsmouth and the Historic Dockyard are a great couple of days out. Something for everyone down there. And the preservation work that they are doing on Victory is, as you rightly say, crucial. She was literally collapsing under her own weight.

I LOVED this! thank you for the wonderful tour. I've been a fan of Nelson ever since reading the Patrick O'Brian novels, and got strangely emotional seeing where he died. Thank you, as usual, for providing a tiny vacation from the everyday.
