Visiting Wirral Town In a Minibus
Whether you are a history buff, an outdoor adventurer or a sports enthusiast, Wirral is the right place to visit. The peninsula is located on the northwest region of England between rivers Mersey and Dee. It is characterised by sandy beaches, off-shore islands inhabited by rare wild animals and rich historical monuments. Wirral Minibus hire will be glad to take you to some of the great attractions that the town has to offer.
The Award Winning German U-boat Story
The tourist attraction contributed significantly to the World War II history. The original film of this story is archived, but visitors get to witness all the action through the interactive displays of the World War II German submarine U-534. The historic ship was constructed in 1942 for service during the war. It is the only vessel of the four German submarines that have been preserved in good condition. It was salvaged in 1993 and was announced as a tourist attraction in 2009 as part of the U-boat story. Today, the ship is divided into four sections that have glass viewing partitions from where onlookers get to view its interior. The interactive exhibitions and audiovisual exhibits provide a fascinating story about life aboard the submarine during the war.
Visit Port Sunlight
Located beside the A41 near Bebington, the village was constructed by an authoritarian factory owner called William Lever to host workers in the 19th century. It makes a fascinating memorial of UK's early urban planning and pays tribute to its developer, William Lever. The museum provides a detailed history of Lever's political and business career and the general life in Port Sunlight village. The village lies on a 130-acre piece of well-maintained parkland, hosting 900 houses and larger buildings now listed as Grade 11. While at Port Sunlight village, you should visit Lady Lever Gallery, which is set to be renovated soon. A walk on its beautiful parkland affords you a spectacular view of the 19th-century village architecture of England.
The Floral Pavilion Theatre
If you are an art fanatic, this theatre is just for you. Located on New Brighton's prominent waterfront, the theatre offers panoramic views over the Liverpool Waterfront and Mersey Estuary. It was recently transformed into a prestigious leisure and business centre after a renovation that cost £12 million, making it the largest multi-purpose venue. Today, it hosts many broad-based activities and events to entertain the local community and tourists. In 2013, it was named Wirral Attraction of the Year and awarded gold during the Green Business Tourism Scheme.
Mersey Ferries
Spice up your vacation by taking a 50-minute cruise on the River Mersey. You get to enjoy the panoramic view of Liverpool Waterfront and discover the rich, fascinating history of River Mersey while aboard. The ferry service is 850 years old and still allows tourists to hop on the country's remaining Dazzle Ferry. The exhibition on board explains the role of Dazzle ships and Mersey Ferries during the First World War. You can also cruise on the River Explorer, which operates hourly through three terminals- Seacombe, Pier Head (Liverpool) and Woodside. A return ticket allows you to break the journey and join the cruise later during the day.
Visit Royden Park
The park is located in Thurston halfway between Heswall and West Kirby on a vast 250-acre parcel of woodland. It is known for its beautiful view of butterflies and the famous sandstone called Thor's Stone. During the Victorian times, the stone was the subject of several legends. The distinguished historian from Liverpool, Sir James Picton believed that the rock had been a shrine of Viking worship where nocturnal gatherings and festivities were held in honour of Thor, a Nordic god.

Travel as a Group Hiring a minibus saves you the trouble of hiring different vehicles to your destination. If you are a large group, there is the thrill that comes with travelling together as you get to share stories, bond and create new relationships. What's more, car rentals can be quite expensive if you are going in groups of 10 and more.
Relaxed Trip Back Home
Wild trips involve lots of fun and adventure. Having a designated driver who can take you home gives you peace of mind and allows you to rest after an eventful day. You only need to make prior arrangements as to a suitable arrival and departure time. Visitors who prefer hiring a self-drive minibus should acquaint themselves with the laws regarding carrying large groups of people. The UK law is rather strict in such scenarios as it requires the driver to:
• Be in possession of a full car license
• Have held the license for two years or more
• Drive on a voluntary basis
• Be over 21 years
• Receive no consideration or any form of out of pocket expenses
• Drive for social purposes only
