On Monday the 412-foot yacht, which has recently been refurbished, will be opened to the public for tours at the port of Leith, two miles from the center of Edinburgh, Scotland. Technically a Royal Navy ship, the yacht has sailed more than a million miles.
Tourists reach the ship through a visitor center.
Its centerpiece is the yacht's 41-foot tender, floating in a pool. Britannia's original wheelhouse also will be displayed. Once on board, visitors will be guided around Britannia's five decks by an audio tour. The engine room, the captain's cabin and the galleys are also on the tour. The Britannia will be open daily except Christmas.
