WELCOME TO LIVERPOOL

Liverpool is a modern, vibrant city located in the North-West of England. It boasts a proud maritime history, and its

past glory is still evident in the city’s stunning architecture. Liverpool is, however, very much a 21st century city, and is

one of England’s most popular tourist destinations.

LIVERPOOL

One of the UK’s largest cities.

Crammed with shops, restaurants, pubs,

theatres and concert venues.

The most museums and art galleries outside

London, most of which are free of charge.

Boasts an attractive harbour area, home to

yachts and international cruise ships alike.

Home to the Beatles - visit the many Beatles landmarks,

the world famous Beatles museum, and take the Beatles

tour.

Home to two world-class football teams.

Excellent transport links, including easy access to two

international airports, Liverpool John Lennon and

Manchester International.

A fantastic base for exploring the UK - spend the

weekend in London, a day visiting the historic Roman city

of Chester, or a few days hiking in the beautiful Welsh

hills; all less than 2 hours from Liverpool.
