Great nostalgic trip!! However all the interesting info that is being said cannot be heard due to noise of the ferry!! Better to take a duck tour or open bus trip to get the history!! We went across to Seacombe and then went to Spaceport which the children loved! There's a Wallace and Gromit space exhibition there at the moment. More

At £6.70 a head it is great value & the view of the impressive city skyline worth every penny. Sing along with Jerry & the Pacemakers. All together now!! More
