Traveler Reviews

The commentary was really interesting but after queuing early after reading previous reviews was really disappointed in the trip. We were 2nd on the Ferry so had a perfect seat at the front. However, it was so packed people just got on and stood directly in front of our seats. The only view we had was of people’s backs! I think they should ask people to be a bit more considerate and if they don’t want to sit in a seat not to stand in front of people that have paid to enjoy the scenery. Shame because I we were looking forward to this trip very much.

Even though the views were very nice, we expected to be on the characteristic colourful Beatles boat to experience a unique Beatles trip on the water. The cruise now was regular with a narrator on the background who could not be heard that well if you were seated close to the water. Also there is a stop at the other side at Seacombe, so the cruise is also used as a ferry.
-
Really enjoyable and informative. Whole family enjoyed it (children age 10, 7 and 7). Learned so much about importance of Liverpool’s docks and Dow it has changed over the centuries. Felt too special to do a ‘ferry cross the Mersey’. Would recommend. Staff were friendly too and dried our outdoor seats as it had been raining overnight.
-
We loved the experience and it's good value. But.... We could not hear any of the commentary as the speakers are not well placed, if you sit outside or even undercover to get the great views you will not hear anything. They should play the iconic song about the Mersey a little bit more.
-
Maybe my expectations where to high im not sure but I wouldn’t recommend this trip. Over priced and a bit dull compared to other city cruises..
-
The boat was not as advertised in this photo which was disappointing since this is the main reason I booked the tour
-
Enjoyable trip even if windy. Good views of the city and commentary. Long queue to get on but clears quick. 50 minute journey gives a different view of the city. As I kid we use this to get to the other side, now hardly anyone got off
-
I and a friend enjoyed our trip across the Mersey but it would have been so much better if we could have heard the commentary. Between the sound of the engines and the wind, it was impossible to catch more than a few words so we missed all the information.

Booked 50 minute book trip on the day at the pier head. £10.50 for persons over 65. Very busy and long queues for boarding , but went quick when ferry docked. A massive scramble for seating , otherwise you stood for the duration. Ferry went on to the other side of the Mersey then back down swung around and docked back.. It is not a full tour up and down the Mersey but well worth saying you have Caught the ferry across. Beware the wind direction if at the back as there is a strong smell of diesel fumes blowing your way. We had a nice sunny day an enjoyed the experience.
