Liverpool's The Yellow Boat Cruise crew members are so
dedicated to their jobs and proud of the city's 300-year-old
dock history, that they have devised an all-new Heritage Tour to
share their passion with their passengers.
Captain Dennis and Captain Collin have a wealth of nautical
experience and an extraordinary knowledge of Liverpool's South
Docks history. Together with Crewmen Paul and Gareth they have
worked hard to deliver a diverse and unique tour that people will
find entertaining and informative. The tour takes passengers on a
personal and intriguing voyage around Liverpool's impressive
South Docks.
Captain Dennis said, 'I was in the merchant navy for 40
years and have captained many vessels including the Royal Iris and
the Daffodil ferries on the Mersey, but this is the first time
I've had the opportunity to speak to my passengers and
hopefully share my passion for the city. Liverpool's port
legacy is fascinating and I really believe that people will find
our tour interesting and above all entertaining'.
To celebrate the re-launch of the new Heritage Tour, The Yellow
Boat Cruise has teamed up with a popular wine specialist and a fine
dining restaurant at the Albert Dock, to create a new experience
for visitors wanting to encounter Liverpool by water.
The Yellow Boat Cruise, Vinea and Gusto have designed a range of
packages to suit couples and groups who want to enjoy The Yellow
Boat crew's unique tour of Liverpool's South Docks. To
complement the 40-minute Heritage Tour passengers can choose their
own treat, including tea/coffee and cake, a two-course meal or a
wine tasting session to complete the experience.
Steeped in history, Liverpool's South Docks offer an intriguing
insight into the workings of a major port city as well as a
stunning vista incorporating the key aspects of the World Heritage
Site along with the Liverpool Marina. The new Yellow Boat Heritage
Cruise, which departs from the Albert Dock, will provide passengers
with a relaxing and informative voyage through the water,
celebrating the city's Dock based legacy and its transformation
into a popular visitor destination.
