    Depart School and travel to Liverpool.

    On arrival, get your bearings in the city with a walking tour and see the major sights with an expert guide.

    Then head to Liverpool Cathedral, the awe-inspiring Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ the King.  This dramatic icon of faith, architecture and human endeavour is spectacular in both scale and design.

    Arrive and settle into your accommodation.

  2. Day 2

    Start your day with a visit to The Beatles Story and be transported on an incredible immersive journey into the story of how four young lads from Liverpool were propelled to the dizzy heights of fame and fortune from humble beginnings.

    Then visit the Tate Liverpool which houses a wide range of modern art from Britain and around the world including local superstars of the art world such as L S Lowry.

    Head up the Radio City Tower, one of Liverpool's most iconic landmarks, which offers breath-taking panoramic views of the Wirral, North Wales and Lancashire, even as far as Snowdonia and Blackpool on clearer days.
