Tour tip

“Liverpool Cathedral is one of my favourite places

to take groups. I see jaws visibly drop as visitors

step inside to encounter the vast space. Groups are

amazed at this huge building and are intrigued to

hear its stories.”

Paul Beesley, Liverpool Tour Guide Service

“Ferry Cross the Mersey”

There’s no better way to relax and soak in the

riverside scenery and landmarks than aboard

a world-famous Mersey Ferry – and yes,

they play the song. Opt for a River Explorer

Cruise with Mersey Ferries; for just under an

hour you can sit back and discover the city’s

fascinating history, with all the usual creature

comforts. Cruises operate throughout the year

departing hourly from Pier Head Liverpool

and there are special rates for groups of 20 or

more (advance booking is required).

Prince Albert was certainly on to something

when, back in 1846, he said: “I have heard

of the greatness of Liverpool, but the reality

far surpasses the expectation”. Almost two

centuries later, it’s still the case.
