Activity itinerary

Port Sunlight

Travelling beneath the River Mersey and onto the Wirral Peninsula, you will transition from Liverpool’s iconic maritime waterfront, and drive past historic landmarks and scenic river park to arrive at our first stop that is the beautifully preserved model village of Port. Founded in 1888 by industrialist William Lever of Lever Brothers, this historic village was created to provide high-quality homes for the company’s soap factory workers. Today, visitors can enjoy its peaceful parkland setting, attractive Arts and Crafts architecture, and more than 900 Grade II listed buildings spread across 130 acres.

St George's Quarter

Arrive in the cultural quarter (also known as St Georges Quarter) and get ready for a grand Liverpool welcome, with the colossal St George’s Hall standing proudly opposite Lime Street Station.

Today, its restored warehouses are home to museums, galleries, shops, restaurants and waterfront views, telling the storey of Liverpool’s maritime past and modern regeneration.

This short stop offers excellent photo opportunities and a chance to appreciate one of Britain’s most recognisable waterfront views.

Memorial to the Engine Room Heroes of the Titanic

The tour ends at the Titanic Memorial, a meaningful waterfront tribute that highlights Liverpool’s lasting connection with the famous ocean liner.
