Top 10 City Tours in Liverpool, England

June 5, 2021 Alida England

Liverpool's fortunes have historically been tied to shipping. But imports and exports like sugar, spice and tobacco pale in comparison with Liverpool's most famous export of all—the Beatles. Relive the hysteria at the Beatles Story Experience, and check out Paul's childhood home, but also leave time for exploring Liverpool Cathedral and the Walker Art Gallery.

Booked for April 2020 but was cancelled due to Covid and wouldn’t refund money,issued voucher to use in 2021.Now informed that they won’t honour existing booking as they’ve put price up by £150 ???????? so have refunded original money.Have kept my money for over a year to help their business survive but now increased the price by about 80% and don’t want to look after existing bookings.Shocking way for a company to act so avoid them at all cost.Contact Liverpool taxi drivers via social media who will look after you at a fraction of the cost with a professional service. Brit Movie Tours are greedy and unprofessional !!!

We did a new tour Hope Street shivers which ended in the spooky necropolis of the cathedral. I really enjoyed this tour. The guides were engaging and funny and dealt with ‘hecklers’ really well. The tour was spooky and informative and was great fun. Will definitely be doing some of the other new tours coming up.

Audiences can expect a 90-minute, theatrical, walking tour with the infamous and distinctive flavor of street theater-style guiding with exclusive access into the city's darkest and less well-known avenues within the boundary of the city's seven original streets. Locations include the lofty banking halls of Castle Street, the regal opulence of Town Hall, the crooked alley-ways, and sulfuric lamp-lit lanes in the now bustling commercial district. Ending the immersive tour experience within the boundary of a medieval garden hidden beneath a Gothic spire, entered through a trapdoor, and named by Herman Melville himself...The Dead House.

Inclusions: Professional guide

Exclusions: Gratuities, Food and drinks, unless mentioned, Hotel pickup and drop-off

Booked this very last minute, not knowing what to expect. It was fantastic! Such a brilliant mix of history, spooky tales and laughter! We had Chilla Black and Judy Stench as our guides into the macabre. They were professional, informative and downright hilarious! Lots of group participation throughout the night, even had me screaming into the night air for the "Green Demon" to appear and allow us access across the roadway (pedestrian lights). Brilliant....haha. All in all, such an amazing night of twisted tales and wicked laughs. You are not just following a tour, you ARE the tour. We had a fabulous night! Simply could not recommend this enough to anyone even thinking of going. Just do it, you will not regret it.......!!

I joined the North Wales Adventure with Busy Bus, on 26/9/2020. It was a fantastic day trip through N. Wales and the Snowdonia Park. The places we visited, the scenery we met, the organisation of the trip were brilliant. Frank, our driver and guide was amazing! He made our tour unforgettable! A wonderful man, who loves his job and made us a little Welsh too. I'm looking forward to joining more day trips with Busy Bus. Thank you.
