The Merseyside city of Liverpool is one of the UK’s most iconic, renowned for its culture, music, and football. It has a strong maritime heritage, having been home to the head office of White Star Line – the managing company of the Titanic. Although the ship never visited Liverpool, it is believed that 1 in 10 of the crew members on board the fateful voyage was from the Merseyside area.

The city is very proud of its cruising traditions and, today, many lines operate cruises from Liverpool. Ships berth directly in Liverpool City Centre, making it one of the most easily accessible cruise ports in the UK. Additionally, a new cruise liner facility has recently been constructed to enable larger vessels to dock here.

Liverpool is easy to access via car or coach journey from Merseyside, Lancashire, or North Wales. It is also well connected via rail, with direct connections from across the UK including direct links to Manchester, Newcastle, London, and Norwich. In addition, Liverpool can also be accessed via flight services from across the UK to Liverpool John Lennon Airport.
