Planning a trip on the ferry? Why not hop off at either one of our terminals (Liverpool Gerry Marsden or Seacombe) and turn your 50-minute cruise into a full day out for all the family!

There’s lots to see and do in Wirral, from the historic Birkenhead Park with its open meadows and lakeside walks, to the seaside fun of New Brighton which is packed with fairs, shops and restaurants to Port Sunlight, the beautiful garden village. All of these attractions are only a couple of stops away by bus, which you can catch from outside Seacombe Ferry Terminal.

Also, at Seacombe Terminal, you will find the newly opened Eureka! Science + Discovery centre. Explore how Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics influence and shape our lives - connecting the everyday with the extraordinary. A River Explorer Cruise is an ideal way to make the journey to and from Eureka! Science + Discovery and now you can enjoy both attractions and save money with our River Cruise & Eureka! Science + Discovery combo ticket.

Hop off the ferry at Liverpool Gerry Marsden Ferry Terminal and enjoy a delicious coffee from the Fab4 Cafe. Explore Liverpool’s fascinating architecture and history, with a live guide on the City Explorer Liverpool open top bus, including stops at the Royal Albert Dock, the Cavern Quarter and the Chinese Arch. You can save money by buying a ticket for a River Cruise & Sightseeing Bus Tour

If you're interested in music, The Beatles Story, is just around the corner from Liverpool Gerry Marsden Ferry Terminal. The award winning museum is the world largest permanent exhibition purely devoted to telling the story of the lives and times of The Beatles. Enjoy discounted prices on both attractions with our River Explorer & The Beatles Story combination ticket. 

With all this and lots more to do on both sides of the river the ferry is the best way to see and experience Liverpool and Wirral with your loved ones. 

See you onboard soon!
