For a unique perspective of the Royal Albert Dock and Liverpool’s waterfront, hop aboard one of Splash Tours’ amphibious vehicles. Experience the thrill of cruising around the historic dock, taking in the sights from the water, before the vehicle seamlessly transitions onto land for a fascinating tour of the city’s streets.
The Beatles Story is a great spot for mini music lovers, with their craft workshops the ideal free thing to do. Little ones can create a spin drum to sound like Ringo Starr, design their very own music note to add to their musical wall, and so much more.
A family day out in the sunshine wouldn’t be complete without an ice cream. Head to Real Dairy Ice Cream to pick up a sweet treat, which is just a stone’s throw from the dock’s vintage-style carousel for a guaranteed good time.
Located on the dock’s Atlantic Pavilion, Escape Hunt invites visitors to step into a new and utterly immersive world to become the star of their own brilliantly plotted escape movie. Competing in teams of two to six people, it’s the perfect family-friendly activity to do this half term, to get pulses racing and adrenaline pumping.
Summer is made for dining outside, and at the dock, families can enjoy relaxed meals with a waterside view. Several restaurants offer child-friendly menus, including The Botanist, Rosa’s Thai and Gusto to name a few. From delicious build-your-own pizzas to tasty Thai favourites, there’s something for every palate.
This independent art and gift shop is brimming with unique craft kits, colouring books and art sets that are perfect for little ones with big imaginations. Whether it’s mindful colouring or hands-on craft time, it’s the perfect way to wind down after a day exploring the dock.
This colourful, traditional sweet shop is packed wall-to-wall with every sweet treat you can imagine, from classic pick ‘n’ mix and retro sweets to giant lollies and novelty goodies that kids (and nostalgic grown-ups) will love. It’s the perfect place to let little ones choose a summer holiday treat or to stock up on gifts to take home.
Add a touch of nostalgia to your summer day out with a ride on the beautiful vintage-style carousel. With its brightly painted horses, charming music and prime location by the water, it’s a magical moment for little ones and a perfect photo opportunity for the whole family.
