点评:What a splendid day out to celebrate my dad's 70th birthday. We arrived for 09.30 and didn't leave until we were being ushered out at closing time.
We booked the Factory Full Works Tour, which included a sandwich roll & hot drink on arrival, a private tour of the museum and factory, a personalised vin plate keyring for each person and a signed Triumph book (which of course was given to my dad!). Booking this tour also gave a gift shop discount of 50% off clothing and 25% off merchandise.
Pete was our guide and from the moment we arrived to the second we left he was perfect! He was thoughtful, knowledgeable, attentive, passionate, funny and dedicated.
The anecdotal stories were great from his lengthy employment with Triumph.
The museum is over 2 floors and as you'd expect, full of bikes, parts, plaques and history. The movie section is great.
You are not able to touch the bikes (however Pete did allow us to jump on a couple to try out for size and this was such a memory making moment for my dad, who is disabled, to straddle his ultimate favourite...the Bonneville) but the photo opportunities are endless.
The factory is an eye opener, who knew what it takes to make one of these stunning machines?!? Makes you feel very patriotic.
I can highly recommend a visit to Triumph, from the staff, museum, cafe, factory & toilets - everything was spot on!
A huge thank you, especially to Pete for making our day perfect.
翻译:今天真是庆祝我父亲 70 岁生日的美好一天。我们 9:30 到达,直到关门时才离开。
我们预订了工厂全程游览,包括抵达时享用三明治卷和热饮、私人参观博物馆和工厂、为每个人提供个性化的车牌钥匙圈和一本签名的 Triumph 书(当然,这本书送给了我爸爸!)。预订此游览还可享受礼品店折扣,服装可享受 50% 的折扣,商品可享受 25% 的折扣。
Pete 是我们的导游,从我们到达的那一刻到我们离开的那一刻,他都是完美的!他体贴、知识渊博、细心、热情、风趣和敬业。
他长期在 Triumph 工作,这些轶事非常棒。
博物馆有 2 层楼,正如您所期望的那样,里面摆满了自行车、零件、牌匾和历史。电影部分很棒。
您不能触摸自行车(不过 Pete 允许我们骑上几辆试试尺寸,这对我身有残疾的父亲来说真是一个难忘的时刻,他骑着他最喜欢的 Bonneville 自行车),但拍照的机会是无穷无尽的。
工厂令人大开眼界,谁知道制造这些令人惊叹的机器需要什么?!?让您感到非常爱国。
我强烈推荐参观 Triumph,从工作人员、博物馆、咖啡馆、工厂到厕所 - 一切都恰到好处!
非常感谢,特别是 Pete,让我们的一天变得完美。
