Shore Excursions & Day Trips

A day in North Wales from a cruise ship at Holyhead or Liverpool, or from a hotel in Manchester, Liverpool or Chester, timed to get you back.

The tours

These days start somewhere other than North Wales: a cruise ship tied up at Holyhead or Liverpool, or a hotel across the border in Manchester, Liverpool or Chester. Each is planned around the clock. For a ship, we work back from all aboard and keep a margin; from a city, the drive is part of the day, in by one road and out by another. Tell us your ship and its times, or where you're staying, and we'll fit the day to them.
