What visitors say
We had a wonderful time on the Beatles tour of the city. Rebecca, Gary and John were knowledgeable, very helpful, and excellent hosts. I highly recommend the tour. The stops included John Lennon’s and Paul McCartney’s childhood homes, Penny Lane and Strawberry Field. Along the way, they also pointed out other interesting places connected to the band’s history. There were plenty of photo opportunities, and Gary kindly helped by taking several photos on everyone’s phones. We were never rushed, and the whole experience felt relaxed and enjoyable. A great tour from start to finish.

Had a great visit on the open top bus. Although I'm actually from Liverpool myself I took a friend who was visiting from Milton Keynes. I learnt a lot myself from the commentary from Eileen who was fantastic, overall I really enjoyed seeing the sights from the top of the bus and listening to facts of the city I didn't know myself and I've been here since I was born. Great experience.

Thoroughly enjoyed my trip on the hop on bus as went to Albert Docks first so as to do the beatles story, and then after exploring the docks a bit, I went bk on the bus so as to go to the anglican cathedral. Will definitely do the bus again, and possibly a beatles trip / boat trip. Highly recommend and very knowledgeable guides. Please check out my youtube of my visit to liverpool - @karlsmith25.

Such a fun, brilliant tour! Michael our guide was so lovely and made the experience very memorable. From the get go, with beatles music playing and him chatting to us all, it was a great atmosphere. Michael clearly knew his Beatles lore and history inside out and was so passionate about the city and the boys. The tour is perfect for an overview of major Beatles sites and general Liverpool history thrown in. Even if you are a big Beatles fan, it’s still a lot of fun and I feel like you’d pick up on different things each time. If you want longer at sites like strawberry fields or penny lane then a more in depth tour might be better, but this one is great for a really fun hour and half especially if the sun is out! Would recommend!
