Liverpool: 50-minütige Flussfahrt auf dem Mersey

No commentary, very short circular trip and rather rude staff. I hadn't been on the ferry for 20+ years before this and won't be hurrying back.

It was a fun experience. I felt sad that there was no alternative to earphones as we forgot these. Most London cruises give information on a loud speaker. But they did warn us so it's our own fault for forgetting! It also assumes you have data which is tough for children and visitors. Anyway, we are glad we did it, and the fact it's a fun, painted ship added to the experience.

A very authentic feel to this trip aboard the good ship ‘Everybody Razzle Dazzle’ with great views of the highlight sights of the Mersey estuary. No in-person guiding but an informative commentary available for download on a smartphone, ideally with headphones or earbuds available. We felt that the commentary would have been more accessible if broadcast over the ship’s PA system.

Nice to have been out on the "Ferry cross the Mersey." You should quickly familiarize yourself with the functionality of the audio guide (via your own cell phone) at the beginning in order to hear all the explanations in the right places.

Very nice ride on a newly upgraded ferry. Helped it was a gorgeous day! Smooth and a way to see the beautiful city of Liverpool.

Very good tour and value for money

Super easy to book through get your guide Really friendly and welcoming staff It was our first time on the ferry cross the mersey and even with the drizzly weather it was really nice. Plenty of space to sit and walk around. Highly recommend

This is a ferry repurposed as a tour boat. There is also a commuter ferry service which visits the 3 docks and uses the same facilities. The tour only stops at two points, and you're free to get off on the other side and explore the New Brighton beach area, and take a later 2nd leg of the tour back. If you go in the summer (before the end of August) there is a free connecting bus service from the ferry terminal to the beach with several stops. The busses are timed to match the ferry arrivals/departures, and even though it was a drizzly day, we enjoyed going down to the beach and boardwalk and walking around for a couple of hours. The boat itself is a very nice ferry with access to several open air decks for great photos. They have a small shop set up and (of course) restrooms on board. The one downside some people mentioned is that the "tour" part with audio commentary about the sights is phone-only, and ostensibly requires headphones to listen. You'd also need a data plan on local cell service to download the audio files unless you think ahead and download in advance. It does have a written version of the tour material if you don't have headphones or prefer to read. While not perfect, this worked pretty well, and was better than trying to hear tour information on the loudspeaker over the fairly loud ferry engine. The only real complaint we had is that the tour page played annoying background music until you approached one of the tour sites, then it switched to the appropriate spoken tour. There was no way to disable the music, which made it impossible to hear anyone in your group or the spoken announcements. If the background music were eliminated it would be fine. The scenery was great, and the ferries were operated very professionally, with friendly staff. Overall a great experience we would do again in retrospect. Reasonably priced for what it is.

This was a very nice trip with good views of Liverpool from a different viewpoint. They played Gerry and the Pacemakers Ferry Across the Mersey (of course!) when we set off. Glad we did it.

I visited during a busy weekday in late-August. Immaculate boat, ‘Snowdrop’. Helpful staff. Plentiful indoor and outdoor seating. Cafe selling sandwiches, snacks and hot & cold drinks. Toilets. Commentary via a QR Code (take a smartphone & headphones). A great way to view the Liverpool and Wirral skylines and learn about their history.
