Have You Considered?
Liverpool boasts more museums and galleries than any other UK city outside London. It was also designated a UNESCO City of Music in 2015, highlighting its significant cultural contributions. Don’t miss the Tate Liverpool, the Merseyside Maritime Museum, or the Beatles Story museum. The city’s musical heritage extends far beyond the Beatles – check out the Cavern Club, where many famous musicians got their start, or time your visit to coincide with the Liverpool International Music Festival.
Did You Know?
Bristol has its own currency, the Bristol Pound, used to support local businesses. It’s an interesting economic experiment and a unique souvenir for visitors. The currency was launched in 2012 to encourage people to shop locally and keep money circulating within the community. You can exchange sterling for Bristol Pounds at various locations around the city, including the Tourist Information Centre. Remember, while it’s a fun novelty, not all businesses accept Bristol Pounds, so keep some regular sterling on hand too.
A Tip To Prep For Your Trip
Wear comfortable walking shoes and dress in layers to adapt to the unpredictable British weather. This will help you stay comfortable throughout your explorations. The weather can change rapidly, so it’s not uncommon to experience sunshine, rain, and wind all in one day. A waterproof jacket is essential, as is an umbrella.
Our Tour Staff’s Recommendation
Learn about Britain with a book! Our European tour staff recommends checking out, “Hamnet” by Maggie O’Farrell. This vivid reimagining of the life of William Shakespeare focuses on the death of his son, Hamnet, and its impact on the famous work “Hamlet”.
