Yes, take a ferry, ‘cross the Mersey. A great way to get to know this endlessly fascinating city, the Mersey Ferry sightseeing experience is always a great way to immerse young ones in the magic of Liverpool. The sightseeing ferry itself is a bit on the ‘wacky’ side, all eccentric patterns and wild colour. Tickets also include free entry to the U-Boat Story exhibition in Birkenhead.
