Liverpool and Albert Dock
Today we head into Liverpool for a full day to explore this remarkable city. Albert Dock, situated in a spectacular riverside setting as part of Liverpool’s UNESCO designated World Heritage Site, is home to a number of award-winning visitor attractions, including the Merseyside Maritime Museum and Tate Liverpool. A trip on one of the famous Mersey Ferries is a must, if only to see Liverpool’s spectacular waterfront in all its glory (supplement on request).

‘Iron Men’, Southport and WWT Martin Mere
This morning we travel to Crosby beach to see a portion of Anthony Gormley’s world famous ‘Another Place’, 100 iron men sculptures that face towards the sea. We continue to Southport to discover Lord Street, a Victorian canopied boulevard with a charming, unique style all of its own. Don’t miss Wayfarers Shopping Arcade, a Grade II listed building opened in 1898 that boasts a stunning glass-domed roof, impressive period décor and more than 30 exclusive stores, and stroll along the UK’s second longest pier with a traditional penny arcade at the end. In the afternoon we travel to WWT Martin Mere, a wetland nature reserve. Take a 30-minute electric boat cruise through the wetlands for a peaceful and unusual tour.
