Alternatively you can explore the largest collection of Grade I listed buildings in Britain at Albert Dock. Visit the Merseyside Maritime Museum or head elsewhere to one of the galleries of Tate Liverpool or see the Beatles’ Story, (no admission included). We return you to the hotel in time for dinner tonight.
On day 3 we return to Liverpool after a leisurely breakfast. Spend a few more hours exploring then join the crowds on the dock to watch thisfternoon’s Parade of the Sail as the whole fleet leaves port to begin the first leg of their voyage across the Irish Sea to Dublin. It is a breathtaking and unforgettable sight! Head for home later on.
