Trafalgar Tours Scenic England – Chester to Liverpool
Trafalgar Tours Scenic England – Chester to Liverpool
Daily Itinerary:
Day 6 – Anne Hathaway Cottage, Wedgwood Factory, Chester and Liverpool
Highlights:
Anne Hathaway Cottage – A quick detour on the departure from Stratford-upon-Avon brought us to the door of Anne Hathaway’s cottage where we made a quick stop to take photos.
Wedgwood Visitor Center Tour – Located in Barleston, there was more than enough time for an informative visit and self-guided tour of the visitor center. Followed by some shopping where some of our fellow passengers purchased their Wedgwood souvenirs.
Chester – One of the prettiest Roman cities in Cheshire, with a number of medieval buildings still standing. Chester is a fine example of a beautifully-preserved walled city and it is still possible to walk the Roman wall around the city – most of it is still intact. Lyndon gave a quick overview of the city’s highlights and history and then let us loose to explore alone.
Optional Excursion – Liverpool – All in our group decided to take the two-hour guided bus tour with local Scouser, Phil Capell.
Being from Liverpool himself, he was a mine of information and delivered the goods with humor while regaling tales from his experiences with the Fab Four – Paul, John, George & Ringo.
After we were delivered to our three-star abode for the night, the Jurys Inn Liverpool at Albert Dock, most passengers didn’t delay in hitting the town and finding a pub or restaurant for dinner. The hotel turned out to be very comfortable and ideally situated for ease of exploring the city during the evening.
