Last ever visit to Liverpool (the 9th time here) before being sold to Dubai never to retun to British waters again. QE2 leaves Southampton for Dubai on November 11th, meantime, for one day only, you can see her in the city where she was designed:
From Mersey Ferries:
QE2 is due to arrive at 12 noon and depart at 10pm on Friday 3rd October
Our normal ferry service will operate during the morning.
River Explorer Cruises will operate at 12 noon, 1pm, 2pm, 3pm and 3.30pm from Pier Head Liverpool calling at Seacombe and Woodside terminals. We will sail close to the QE2 for excellent views of this magnificent vessel. A Blue Badge Guide will give a live commentary on each service. Prices: Adults £5.30 Children £2.95
Pre-bookable 45 minute viewing cruises will operate from Seacombe only at 11am, 12 noon, 1pm, 2pm and 3pm. Our flag ship vessel Royal Daffodil will operate these cruises. Numbers will be limited. A Blue Badge Guide will again provide a commentary. Tickets are £10 for adults and £5 for children. The 11am service will sail out to the mouth of the river to meet the QE2 as she arrives in the Mersey.
From 4.15pm through until 8.05pm direct services will operate between Pier Head, Seacombe and Woodside. Departures between 4.15pm and 5.05pm will be approximately every 20 minutes and between 5.05pm and 8.05pm services will be approximately every 10 minutes. Again these services will give an a great opportunity to see the QE2 close up. A Blue Badge Guide will again be providing a commentary on each ferry. Prices for the direct services are Adults £2.30 return, Child £1.70 return.
