Magical - We booked the crossing for us to be able to scatter my late Mum's ashes. It was a beautiful sunny (but cold!) morning and the whole experience was magical. We advised the staff when we boarded about the scattering, and about halfway through the journey they slow the boat right down and direct you to an area of the rear of the boat where we were able to scatter the ashes into the river. We then returned to the indoor area of boat to enjoy the remainder of the cruise. Thank you to everyone involved for helping us to make this happen

"Oh Ferry cross the Mersey, cause this is the land I love, and here I'll stay ..." - Really enjoyed tha "dazzle ship" tour. Best views of Liverpool and Wirral. The ferry tour also filled me in with the fascinating history of a former GREAT CITY of the Empire

Mersey River is a must! - Enjoyable ride on the Mersey. Unfortunately, my husband & I couldn't hear most of what was said over the loud speakers. While you can't control the weather, it was cold & windy!
