For Beatles fans ! - We really enjoyed getting to see all the different places relating to the Beatles like Penny Lane, Strawberry fields and their childhood homes.
Watch out for tree branches if you sit on the upper level...

The absolute BEST bus tour we've ever taken! And singing to go along with it! A++ experience! - I've been on many a city bus tour over the years and I have to say unequivocally that this is hands down the absolutely best city tour I've ever done!
From the enthusiasm of the ticket sales lady to the cheerfulness of our bus driver Anne, to the passion of our tour guide Chris, it was all superb!!
Even if you're not into the Beatles, this is a MUST-do in Liverpool!
I learned so much I never knew before! Loved the photo stops at Penny Lane and entrance to Strawberry fields and learning about the importance of places and peoples in Liverpool to their music and videos.
Loved the Ukulele-playing and singing along - it put everyone in a lively, happy mood even on an overcast, cold day! Kudos to this company for putting this together and for the memorable entertainment, we won't ever forget!

Don’t miss this tour! - So happy there was room for us on this tour! We got to Liverpool without plans but I realized we had to go to a Beatles tour and this fit the bill - I booked it just an hour before. Damian our guide was fabulous. Loved all the stories, many of which were new to me. Plus he’s a great asset to take pics of us at the important places!

Excellent tours! - Excellent Beatles and city bus tours. Damien certainly knew his Beatles stuff and was very entertaining, ably assisted by John the driver who took a splendid photo of us at Penny Lane. Highly recommend!

Best duo to do the tour with! - Tommy & Arthur were THE best guys to do this tour with, so funny, so knowledgeable and very entertaining. My husband is a massive Beatles fan & Tommy knew just the extra things he wanted to know & they even had a sing along. Arthur even showed us old photos of the sights in the 60’s. Tommy got my husband a souvenir courtesy of JL too which he has treasured.

A must do. 5 stars. - We done this tour with our teenage daughters last week and we all absolutely loved it. Chris, our tour guide is extremely entertaining, brilliantly knowledgeable and can play and sing a bit!
Seeing the barbershop, bank building and shelter in the middle of the roundabout, all mentioned in the song Penny lane was a particular highlight. Whenever I hear that song now I know I’ll always think of this brilliant tour.
I cannot recommend this highly enough, whether you’re huge Beatles fans or not, young or old, this is an excellent way to spend 90mins.
Thank you Chris - you made our day!

Lovely Liverpool at its best ! - We went on the Beatles Tour first for 90 mins with the fabulous Dave as our guide and John our driver. Dave was such fun and told great stories, played Beatles songs and was great craic ! It was really interesting and informative and we visited all the relevant Beatles sites.
Two tips : 1. You need to get this tour by 1330 at the latest to be able to be back to hop on the last City Bus Tour for the day. 2. A visit to a Beatles museum prior to the Beatles Bus tour will greatly enhance your experience.

Fantastic way to spend a couple of hours! - This tour was one of the highlights of our trip! Chris was such a lovely and entertaining tour guide and Arthur the driver also kept us entertained. This
dynamic duo kept us laughing all the way around. Once you've done the Beatles tour on the blue route, you can also use the same ticket for the city red route hop on and hop off so really excellent value for money. An uplifting and interesting way to spend a couple of hours in Liverpool. Thanks Chris and Arthur!

Beatles, Liverpool - It was an experience seeing places were John, Paul , Ringo grew up in Liverpool including PennyLane and Strawberry Field.
I wish there was a hop on hop off that included the club where they performed, and an actual hop off at the Fab 4 homes.
It was fun listening to the passengers singing along to Beatles songs in the bus.
