Liverpool : Flusskreuzfahrt & Sightseeing Bustour

A wonderful day! Lots of interesting facts!

Boat broke down and we were not able to go on a tour. We tried 2 days in a row to be able to go and it was closed.

Great trip being on the Ferry Crossing the Mersey as it's something my Wife and I have always wanted to do. It was much better than expected and a great way to see the amazing city of Liverpool. The bus tour was great and very informative of the history at all the different locations on the tour. I would recommend this to anyone visiting Liverpool and would say it's great value for money.

All very easy and covers alot of history. It's the yellow bus with a real person talking and answering questions. Will look for them again. We are seniors with walking issues and this very easy from cruise port

We booked the ferry trip and bus together No contact to say bus stop was closed and a 15 min walk from ferry terminal The ferry was disappointing as you needed headphones for the dialogue A 5 second splurge of the song ferry across the Mersey was played we expected more we had no idea what we could see so a pointless trip The bus stop as much better a great manned trip with handy information and tips with lots of history given we enjoyed this

In all honesty I wouldn’t recommend the cruise however the bus tour was really good and made more memorable by the great commentary by Dave with assistance from driver Wayne’

The Sightseeing bus was really great - helped by the sunny weather on the open top bus. Commentary was interesting and just enough. We stayed on for the whole 'lap' then got off a few extra stops by the Docks. The river cruise was just a ferry trip to the other side, in a big loop. Disappointing there was no commentary at all. It was still good and enjoyable and with the bus tour, was excellent value for money.

The hop on hop off bus tour was good, informative and reliable. Enjoyed it. The river cruise was a glorified ferry boat between the two sides of the river. Wouldn’t do that part again.

I have been a regular passenger on the Mersey Ferry when I have visited the City of Liverpool, over the last 20 years, and have always thoroughly enjoyed the experience. However, my most recent trip last Wednesday was quite disappointing. I took a open top bus tour of the city. Very enjoyable with a narrator on the bus explaining where sights and buildings were and giving us details about them. I have no problem with that whatsoever. However, I was looking forward to the usual on board commentary about the River Mersey and the city of Liverpool, along with hearing the iconic song Ferry Cross the Mersey. My Aunt and her partner have never been on it before. What did I hear? Complete silence throughout the crossing. I could have been going anywhere for all I knew. While I personally have a smartphone, my mother (who is nearly 80), my aunt, and her partner (who are both also pensioners) do not. The only way to access the commentary was via a QR code, which was not clearly signposted and only noticed once we were seated. I heard it, but the older members of our group missed out on the experience entirely. I thoroughly enjoyed my time in Liverpool itself, as I always do. However, I will not be using the Mersey Ferry until the traditional narration is reinstated. I will also be advising friends and family to avoid using it in its current form. I hope you will consider restoring the broadcast commentary, as it is an important part of what makes the ferry crossing special — particularly for older visitors.

Guide was excellent. Good sense of humour and knowledgeable. Excellent trip. Xx
