Few cities in the world have arrival points in the heart of the city: New York, Venice, Sydney & St Petersbourg and now Liverpool. Since the inauguration of the new cruise berth in 2007, the giants of the cruise industry such as the Queen Mary 2 have been able to tie up alongside the UNESCO designated World Heritage site at Liverpool's famous Pier Head
Liverpool is a stylish and vibrant city, steeped in history and rich cultural heritage; it is the birthplace of the Beatles but is equally famous for its humour, passion for sport, friendly locals and music.
Liverpool has a plethora of award winning special events and attractions in a cruise destination brimming with tourism riches. Liverpool’s jewels range from the cultural icons of Albert Dock, the Walker Art Gallery, the Tate Gallery of the North and the Maritime Museum with its focus on `Emigration to the New World’, to the unique Beatles Musum and Magical Mystery Tour celebrating the world famous `Fab Four’ - all set in a city with two cathedrals and more national museums and galleries than any other UK city outside of London.
The surrounding region is renowned for its picturesque English villages and breathtaking coastline. The Roman city of Chester, the castles of North Wales and the poet Wordsworth’s treasured Lake District are just a stones throw away. Liverpool is at the heart of the UK’s Golf Coast with seven championship courses including clubs which regularly host the Open and the Ryder Cup.
Liverpool is a city bursting with energy and passion to be explored and enjoyed; no wonder Carl Jung called it "The Pool of Life"
