We did the British Isles cruise a number of years ago. I spent some time in Manchester, UK. I took the train to Chester. So when I cruised with the family I said let go to Chester. It is a quaint city with a number of Tudor buildings. The Chester Cathedral was built in 1092. The Cathedral was not torn down when Henry VIII formed the Church of England.

Without knowing your itinerary it’s difficult to advise, but I assume you will be docking in Liverpool. We were on a day visit in June 2016 when Silhouette was in port. I heard a lot of positive remarks from cruise ship passengers.

 

We have recently visited out granddaughter who is at University there.

 

The Albert Dock has been renovated.

 

 

 

The Beatles tour is one not to miss.

 

 

 

The Liver building

 

The Catholic cathedral near the university can be seen from the tour bus.

Where are you from and where are you going? I live in th UK but it's difficult for anyone to advise without knowing your ports and how long you have in each.
