Overview

Perfect for visitors and locals alike — enjoy a deeper appreciation of Liverpool's awe-inspiring Victorian (1800s) & Edwardian (early 1900s) waterfront and Lower City Centre Neighbourhoods.

From understanding the City's history and origins of how it started as a relatively unknown fishing village, to growing into one of the biggest Port Cities in the world, as a melting pot for multicultural creativity, architectural splendour and the home of one of the most influential bands in history, The Beatles.

Your Qualified Guide, Peter, will explore this heritage with you and unravel the fascinating stories that the architecture and statues tell.

Tour finishes at local pub, Ma Boyle's, which serves Liverpool's signature dish, a Bowl of Scouse, that you can buy.
