The 30 Best Excursions in Liverpool

“My husband and I took the three-hour Beatles tour with Adrian and Phil (the taxi driver), and it was an unforgettable experience. From the beginning, Adrian took the time to lovingly and thoroughly explain each of the iconic sites we passed. He made us feel like we were rediscovering the history of the Beatles, and his passion for what he did was evident. Phil, the driver, was also very kind and calm, and they both perfectly respected our pace, never rushing us. We are deeply grateful to Carmen, who organized the tour with such care. It was a day full of magic, stories, and good company. We definitely recommend this experience; it's something we'll never forget!”

“Excellent Beatles tour with Jimmy! We enjoyed seeing so much of the city and the major Beatles history sigets, but especially loved taking with Jimmy and hearing the stories....not only about the Beatles but also the city and the people. We definitely recommend taking this tour dieing your time in Liverpool.”

“Fantastic experience for my 10 year old grandsons introduction to scuba diving. He's already asking when he can go again, so we are booking him on the full course! Leanne is patient and encouraging. A whole new world has opened up for him. Thank you, Palaemon Divers”

“My wife and I had an absolutely LOVELY time on this tour yesterday. The “Phils” were both extremely helpful and knowledgeable. “Phil the Younger” led our tour with another older couple (like us) from The Netherlands and was the best tour guide we could have asked for. We stopped at three of The Beatles birthplaces and childhood homes (John Paul Ringo) and did not visit George’s because it is a bit more outside of town (we visited it on our own this morning as we were leaving Liverpool). Our favorite parts of the tour were Penny Lane, Aunt Mimi’s house on the dual carriageway (and where John’s mother was killed in a horrible car accident when he was 17), the Eleanor Rigby grave, and the last few miles along the docks. O — and running into Colin who played with John in The Quarrymen!! My wife and I have enjoyed a number of ebike tours on different continents and we have to honestly say that the tour conducted by Phil yesterday in Liverpool is now at the top of our list. Highly recommended.”

“Great tour with Rob today. Extremely informative about Liverpool, easy to listen to and fantastic depth of information. Thank you so much for a lovely morning.”

“Brilliant tour of Chester with Nicola. Excellent insights into it's history from Roman times through the medieval to the war of the three kingdoms to the regency period. I would recommend. The 90 minutes flew by.”

“Absolutely delicious! Bursting with flavour and a touch of Sri Lankan warmth 'The Lions Liverpool' is a must-visit.”

“My husband and I went on a day tour to North Wales with BusyBus, and it was a fantastic experience! Our guide, Adrian, was incredibly friendly and made us feel like we were on a family day out. We explored North Wales in the best possible way, and Adrian’s enthusiasm and knowledge made the trip even more enjoyable and memorable. I highly recommend BusyBus sightseeing tours for anyone looking for a fun and unforgettable adventure.”

“It was truly amazing. The Experience was my birthday present off my husband. I was so excited just like a kid on Christmas morning. Great welcome on arrival. Coffee and biscuits while the paper work sorted. Taken outside and asked, out of 5, which car I would like to drive. I'm 70yrs old and 5'3" tall. I chose the biggest. A 2018 White 4.2 Range Rover value £120,000. Sean, my instructor was excellent. He drove down to the off road area then it was over to me. He explained all the controls, buttons, switches, mirrors and cameras. He said we would have some surprises on route and oh boy did we! One of the pics shows us stopped and balanced on 3 wheels. Look close, the furthest front wheel is off the ground. I took that pic while stopped balanced with my foot firm on the brake. If you want to know more make a booking. It's worth every penny. I didn't want it to end.”

“We really enjoyed this Beatles tour and I highly recommend it to everyone. The driver Arthur and guide Damion were great. Damion was an awesome performer and sang a few Beatles songs with his guitar along the way. The three stops were Strawberry fields, Mcartney's childhood house and Penny Lane. We stopped but didn't get off at Lennon's home. The tour price was very reasonable and they also allow you access to the jump on/off bus tour.”

“Too many negative reviews here - not what I expected from a lot of them. The museum is across 4 floors - the shop on the ground, then pre-Please Please Me, then 1962-66, then 1967-1970. All the Pete Best stuff the other reviews mention is on the first floor - which is really interesting with a lot about the Casbah and Hamburg. There are some great items too, with lots of guitars, memorabilia, and items purchased by the boys. I particularly like some carved coconuts John bought in Hawaii on holiday which were incredibly random but silly. They also have a toilet from Tittinghurst which is odd but nice. There were some really good copies of the Pepper suits and right next to them french horns used on the album. Really enjoyable experience, great shop with decent prices, and not too busy.”

“Paula is always so welcoming as are all the staff. Drinks offered on board and a great way to spend 30 minutes. Very informative on history”

“I spent 4 weeks at the Travelodge, Strand whilst working in Liverpool recently . The rooms are exceptionally quiet, the staff here are super friendly and breakfast is excellent with a great view of Royal Albert Dock just opposite. Liverpool One Shopping Centre is close by and parking in Q park one is discounted - you need to pre book your days and you can come in and out of the car park when you want , just park on the 3rd floor near the shopmobility end and then you are at street level to walk to the hotel. Food menu in the evening has a good range of choice. I definitely would book here again.”

“Lovely staff in here, especially Mandy, she's been so helpful. We've chopped & changed our holidays a few times and nothing too much trouble, would 100% recommend Hays travel for your holidays.”

“Lovely ride, bit windy at times.”

“Big Shout out to Chris and Ryan with Ryan's patience excellent driving and Chris's top knowledge and banter We had the best Beatles blue route tour”

“This is a wonderful place to stop as part of a cruise. If you don't fancy the main tourist attractions it is possible to go for a short walk to explore some of the north docks which are only now being regenerated and make up the world heritage site. We headed north along Priness Parade, then followed the historic dock wall up to Stanley Dock. Once there the luxurious Titanic hotel provides a great water side location for drinks and food. This is definitely a departure from the well worn routes but an adventure well worth taking.”

“I had the pleasure of a trip on the boat, "Floating Grace" and it was wonderful. The service was 1st class and the skipper certainly knew how to sail with care. Thank you.”

“Fabulous business, really look after you! Darren is a wonderful driver,Would definitely recommend!”

“Just back from Mijas and stayed in Villa Lisetta.First stay in Spainish villa and must say it was exceptional.9 adults and 4 kids in party and house and overall property in excellent condition and very roomy.Everything was there we needed and more .Maid service even came and changed bedding and towels mid week.Location (via short minor road ) was secure and very private.kids loved the infinity pool and best time was late evening looking over the valley and sunset.Absolute gem of a holiday.Mijas villas as a company excellent to deal with and great communication all the way through.Special mention to Lisa there local rep .instant response and very helpful.Recomend 100%.will use again.”

“Jackie Cox-Peel from bar head travel booked me and some family members, a recent trip to Iceland. She booked everything from the flights, transfers, hotel and trips. The hotel was very central and perfectly situated for exploring the capital city on foot; and it was a lovely hotel. She took all of the stress out of the trip and organised some lovely excursions, to make the most of our stay. Would ask her for help again and would recommend her and the company to others. Thank you so much.”

“Very Knowledgeable staff, no pressure to buy. Would recommend if you're thinking about a cruise.”

“I work for a study abroad company and have had the pleasure of bringing students on multiple tours with Mario (the Baroque Rome walking tour, the Colosseum, and Pompeii)-- the tours were fabulous!! Mario was knowledgeable, engaging, informative and funny, and the students and I learned a lot and had a good time. I've also coordinated at least a dozen other tours with Mario and his team of guides for our students visiting Rome, Florence, Padua and Venice, and we always get great feedback about the tours. He's organized and quick to get back to me, and his tours are high quality and reasonably priced. 10/10 highly recommend working with Mario and the Grand Tour Europe!!”

“Everyone at Andersons Travel is fantastic! All so knowledgeable and no question is too trivial. We booked our amazing cruise to Antarctica through them and their advice on cabin type and location, flights and hotels was spot on. Absolutely 100% recommended!”

“Just like to say, a big thank you to Kelly at TUI Wrexham She was so friendly and Knowledgeable about what we required in booking our next holiday. She also helped us with an upcoming booking that we are having trouble signing into. Thanks Kelly”

“John was an excellent guide. He was a font of all knowledge about the area covered by this tour. We marvelled at his memory of all the historical sates. One suggestion to John is that he may need to slow down his delivery of information if he has foreign guests in his party. Our Dutch friends managed to keep up with him but would have welcomed a slower pace. John encouraged questions and was friendly and well mannered with his party of guests. Thank you John, we had an excellent two hour tour and thoroughly enjoyed meeting you and the tour.”
