Liverpool John Lennon Airport is 11km from Liverpool’s city centre. Placed conveniently in the extensive road network of Merseyside, it’s well-served by the M57, M62 and M56 motorways, making it easy to explore the city and beyond.

You’ll find a variety of sightseeing and entertainment options available in this Unesco World Heritage Site. You might be surprised to learn that, aside from London, Liverpool has the largest collection of galleries and museums in the UK.

The Museum of Liverpool and Merseyside Maritime Museum are good places to find out more about the history of this exciting urban hub. Art lovers should also check out the Walker Art Gallery, which holds a collection of works from the likes of Rubens, Gainsborough and Rembrandt.

Liverpool’s two cathedrals are also popular attractions. Vastly different in architectural styles, Liverpool Anglican Church took 74 years to build and was completed in 1904. In contrast, the modern Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ the King was completed in 1967 and features contemporary art works and abstract stained glass.

Entertainment-wise you’ll be spoilt for choice with a huge selection of restaurants, bars and nightclubs on offer. A visit to the legendary Cavern Club in Matthew Street is a must for fans of The Beatles.

There’s plenty to do if you want a day out with the family, and Knowsley Safari Park has over 700 animals spread across 550 acres of land. Spot them all from the comfort of your hire car.

There’s so much to see and do in Liverpool. Explore the city and beyond at your leisure with your Liverpool car hire.
