Liverpool?

[poss]

We love the Beatles' music, but have no interest in any of the Beatlemania tours.   I wonder what cruisers find to do in or around Liverpool that's very interesting or handsome — if they're  not interested in Beatles tours.     

 

Thanks in advance.

You can go to the Cavern Club, drink beer and sing Beatles songs?

The Maritime Museum is wonderful. Take the HoHo for city tour and get off at the Museum (I think next to last stop).

In case you change your mind about The Beatles we took the 3 hour "Lennon Tour" with Fab4Taxi Tours.  We split the cost with another couple (so no large group. Just us 4 and the driver/guide).  Tour is in a black taxi cab with stops outside each Beatle home, Strawberry Fields, the church where they met, Penny Lane, etc.  I'm the big Beatles fan and it met my needs without driving my husband nuts (he liked the Beatles but....).  

We had them pick us up after lunch. In the morning we took the HoHo and visited the Maritime Museum (one of the best Maritime Museums we've ever been to).

Even though it was a gray (and sometimes wet) day when we stopped there a few years ago, I walked around by myself--it was a Sunday so things were pretty quiet:  saw a park or two, some government buildings (one's right by the dock), lots of pubs <g>, etc.

Thanks, everyone!   Much appreciated.

We weren't interested in a Beatles tour either. We went down to Royal Albert Docks, toured the Maritime Museum, and had lunch at a pub. We'll be back in 2021 and I'm thinking of taking a ride "'cross the Mersey" (apologies to Gerry and the Pacemakers). The ferry dock is a short walk from the cruise ship dock.

Cathedral, Tate Gallery, cruise on the Mersey. And do not forget your raincoat and or umbrella...Hop on Hop Off: one of them offers life comments. Pity that they start late: at 10.00 am near the terminal, but perfect for a rainy day.
