    An absolute must do with your G string. Fred didnt and regretted it deeply. We got by with a little help from something called "You-Tube". Very high brow experience, of course high brows are very respected. For greatest respect of all, high selfie sticks award most reverence. We saw a whooper and were nearly blown away by a tree.

    We thoroughly enjoyed this bus tour. DAMIAN, our guide, was an absolutely brilliant person, and the tour was fun as he played his guitar as we went round. We were all singing and enjoying ourselves and the information he gave us was second to none. Would highly recommend this tour without hesitation. Well worth the money.... and you have to meet Damien, a wonderful character!

    Spent a very pleasant 1:30 on the beatles tour the guide was absolutely brilliant and full of anecdotes about the beatles and the area. He even gave a short burst of music on his banjo. I thoroughly recommend this tour to anyone. Must mention the driver she was so helpful getting everyone seated and warning us to duck for wayward branches😂😂

    It was very good but: I wish we spent more time at the stops and that there was more material/historical context. There were only 1-2 stops, but they are just the hop ons/offs. There's so much history that we could have stopped at each stop to listen to more information or historical stats. Also, I visited the city at the end of the Eurovision week and the guide didn't know 'basic' things, e.g. the partnerships the city of Liverpool formed for the 1-month long evebt or name of the new attractions around the city. He did tours before so why not do some research or just go to the inflatable bird and see what it's called? I assume he just represents the bus company and it's just his job, so my feedback is more for the tour organisers; providing information to the guids and asking them to stay up to date.

    Amazing people running the tours, super funny and tell interesting stories about Liverpool. I would recommend as a day out as you can hop off at different places like the cathedral, if you stay on the coach/bus its roughly an hour depending on the tour you choose :)

    10 stars are awarded to the Wolfpack’s Beatles tour guide Tony and driver Ryan! Tony mixes history and humor in his descriptions . Ryan is outgoing and is as comfortable in the office as he is driving the bus! As Tony said,” many have waited fifty years to take this tour ! Do not wait Beatle fans! Tony and if your are lucky , Ryan will be at your service !

    Had a blast doing this during the week! I did the combined Beatles and City tours and loved every second. Well worth it! Beware the cheeky bus crew who are fond of a selfie when they offer to take your photo 🤣🤣 Wish I could remember their names but they were outstanding!!

    An enjoyable and informative tour of the city, and into the 'burbs to see where The Beatles grew up. Damien was our guide, and he's a real character: full of knowledge, jokes and songs. Despite having lived in Liverpool my entire life, I had a great time and would highly recommend it.

    Great value tour. Very informative and fun. Ann, the bus driver, and Tony, the tour guide, were both friendly, welcoming and entertaining. I would recommend this tour whether you know Liverpool or it's your first time there.

    We’ve done the City tour before and really enjoyed the informative and witty narrative from the tour guides. This time around we added the Beatles tour and wow what a great 90 minutes we had. Great telling of the Beatles story and live music from our tour host Damion! Stop offs at penny lane and strawberry field along the way with good photo opportunities. Highly recommend this tour, you won’t be disappointed.

    This was an amazing tour. Chloe was our tour guide and she was fantastic ❤️. A real Liverpool lass with fascinating facts, funny wit and a gorgeous smile. Anne the driver was great too. We did the 90min tour and then you can use your ticket for the next 24hours to hop on and hop off the bus around Liverpool. Great value and lovely people on bus too. Will definitely recommend to friends and family and anyone who will listen to me. Xx

    Excellent tour round Liverpool. Stayed on for 3 curcuits. Very knowledgeable guides. Really enjoyed it. Highly recommended.

  • 4/5 Gary T. 11 months ago on Google
    Went on the Beatles Bus Tour which was good, although wish they drove up to Paul McCartneys childhood house, instead of letting us glimpse part of the roof from a distance. Only stopped to get off twice on the tour. The driver and tour guide were great and had good knowledge of the sights. Would recommend if visiting Liverpool for the first time!

  • 5/5 Carol M. 2 years ago on Google
    The Beatles tour hosted by Chris with Steve the driver was absolutely fabulous. It really felt quite personal and as though it was tailored for everyone on the bus. Thank you, it was such a lovely experience xxx

  • 5/5 Mona L. 10 months ago on Google
    The best way to explore Liverpool! And learn more about it. Everybody on and off the bus take care of you. Perfect to hop on off as you like. Use your ticket to max and take more than one round because every guide has a personal touch to the town.

  • 5/5 Sophie F. 10 months ago on Google
    Had a great time! A quick stop in Liverpool on our way to our next stop. This was the perfect way to see the city and get some history on the Beatles Our tour guide was very entertaining… I would recommend this tour!

    Loved this bus tour of Liverpool. It was a great way to see the city sights and the Beatles home turf

    Take the Blue Beatles tour. The onboard commentary with Tomy was great. You get to stop and take photos.

  • 5/5 Robyn C. 8 months ago on Google
    Missed the bus and joined late outside of strawberry field. What an amazing experience! Tommy was the best tour guide I think ive ever met and the driver was awesome too! So much to take in and learn! Thank you for a wonderful experience!

  • 4/5 Mozzerian M. 7 months ago on Google
    A great way to see the sights of Liverpool in any easy, carefree way with a guide telling relevant (and often humorous) stories as he points out each sight. If you don't know the city and/or have limited time to look around independently then this is a great option. The ticket lasts for 24 hours, and you can alight at any of the spots and catch the next bus to continue the tour or you can just get on and remain on the bus the whole time. If you pay to go on the river cruise at the Albert Docks you get free access to the bus which can be caught right next to the ferry terminal when you get off the boat. I now do these in every city I stay in because it's so convenient. A great choice for tourists.

  • 5/5 Liz M. 7 months ago on Google
    An open topped bus tour is the perfect start to any city break. It gives you a great grounding into all the major attractions the city has to offer. This tour is about an hour long, and you can hop on or off at any of the dozen stops. The driver and guide were superb and we learnt a lot about Liverpool during the trip. We would definitely do this again.

  • 5/5 David M. 5 months ago on Google
    Had a great tour over the Christmas week, very knowledgeable and funny tour guide. Great commentary as we drove around. Tickets valid for 24 hours so plenty of time to hop and and off and explore at your own pace

  • 5/5 Steve O. 6 months ago on Google
    The Beatles tour bus ride was so informative and fun. A ride down Penny Lane gives the real feeling of the song. The nicest and friendly of guides. Also included two days of City bus tour, easy to hop on/off like a stop at Cathedral. And finally the Beatles story museum tickets were included too. This is easy, fun and highly recommended. A splendid time!

  • 5/5 Little S. 2 years ago on Google
    Excellent tour, the driver and the guide the best, very entertaining in spite of the rainy day it was well worthy. The guide took us picture at Penny Lane and Strawberry Field. At the last leg of the tour the guide started singing Beatles songs and playing the ukulele. If you are a Beatle fan I strongly recommend to take this tour

  • 5/5 Sarah B. 2 years ago on Google
    Sept 2021 had a fantastic hour or so on the tour bus our guide Chris was very informative with a bit of wit thrown in. Our driver Ann was really good extremely pleasant and gave me some tips on things to do. Highlight of the tour is when Chris got he's banjo out and gave us a few songs. Would definitely recommend and will do it again next hopefully the local festival will have finished haha roadworks

  • 5/5 Callum K. 3 years ago on Google
    This is a super SUPER late review but early 2019 I went to Liverpool for the first time “In my life” at the age of 21. I was ecstatic as I’ve been a massive Beatles fan my entire life. My parents brought me and we did the tour with Tommy as our host, he was enthusiastic and incredibly knowledgeable. I loved my visit in it’s entirety that much I came back later that year, this time with my girlfriend. I wanted her to experience it all just as I did and fortunately enough we got Tommy again! Which was brilliant and he recognised me even tho we were sat right at the back! That really touched me as it goes to show how much he loves being there engaging with the audience and making sure everyone is having fun. I’m now 23 and still hold on to these fond memories! I honestly can’t wait to “get back” and do it all again! Thank you Tommy and the rest of the fab team!

    We did the Blue Route with Chloe as our guide who was absolutely incredible. Our driver “Phill from Eastenders” was lovely. Chloe was so interesting and really made us laugh. She was so informative and really engaged with everyone on the bus. The tour itself went to some great spots, it touched on some of the main buildings/areas in Liverpool and then went to the childhood homes of the Beatles. It stopped off at some of the Beatles highlights (Penny lane sign, strawberry fields gate etc) perfect for any Beatles fan! The only issue we really had was an incredibly obnoxious and rude gentleman who was checking peoples tickets. He had no time for anyone and was so rude to every customer who came near him. I understand it must be a lot to handle timing and making sure everyone is on the correct buses but there’s no need to be quite so blunt and aggressive. For anyone going on these tours, maybe go speak with the drivers or the guides and avoid this guy!

    Went on this tour today and really enjoyed it. Tony was a fantastic and funny tour guide and very knowledgeable. Even got a selfie of him and Smoggy on my phone! Would highly recommend

  • 5/5 Darron H. 2 years ago on Google
    A fantastic real time interesting interaction from the tour guide mixed with Beatles tunes and bites of local history. Stops for photos, understanding why the songs are what they are! Tour is Full of facts and nostalgia... I would give it six stars if I could ...take some change to give them a tip at the end, they worked hard ..... The lads are fantastic

    We went on the Liverpool City Sights Tour Bud (City tour only) it was £18 per person, I hate to say it, however this has to be the worst value for money sight seeing tour I’ve experienced anywhere in Europe. We’re lucky if we were on the bus for 45mins from the Liver Building back to the Docks. The guide (George I think it was) was great, if it wasn’t for him I would have left an even lower rating. There is a separate Beatles tour you can do (at an additional cost) so was surprised that the city tour was so heavily Beatles related. I also felt that things were being described AFTER we had driven by, meaning your constantly sitting looking over your shoulder, I think this may have been partly due to how quickly the bud was travelling. This was on the Bank Holiday Monday during the queens funeral so not sure if this is general practice, however if not, a discounted rate should have been given.

    A massive thanks to our driver and tour guide Chris for the best city tour I’ve ever been on. As well as being informative and knowledgeable about his beloved city Chris even pulled out a banjo at the end of the tour and belted out a few Beatles hits!! If you want the best tour guide for this trip hunt this guy down you won’t be disappointed. In the unlikely event you read this Chris I can’t thank you enough for making this the highlight of our Liverpool city break. You were superb! 👏👏

  • 5/5 Richard L. 1 year ago on Google
    Brilliant Tour Had a wonderful time with my wife, daughter and granddaughter on Sunday on the Blue Route and Beatles Tour. Tockey Tom is a superb guide, full of knowledge of not only the Beatles but the city as well. A fund of stories and great music. Anne, the driver, was friendly and handled the big double-decker around some very narrow streets with ease. Our dog enjoyed himself as well and was welcomed on board without and issues. Great afternoon out, great value and we were able to go on the Hop On Hop Off bus for a trip later in the day, included in the price. Five Stars.
