4.00A very entertaining tour. Chris was a very good guide and the both he, and the driver, helped with photos. The only small drawback was that the bus did not stop at Forthlin Road
Excellent tour and great value!

5.00Visiting from Essex for a long weekend and first time in Liverpool. Did the hop on hop off bus which was great but we also wanted a Beatles focus too so the next day did this one with Joe the driver and Damion the guide and we were certainly not disappointed! So friendly and chatty and never felt rushed it was really chilled from start to finish - there was obviously Beatles music but mixed with such interesting info Damion was really knowledgeable and fun (even got sung happy birthday to me!) we stopped at strawberry fields and penny lane and both helped with photo opportunities. Saw John Lennons house and Damion shared little bits of info and origin i had never heard about from the lyrics etc. Probably one of the best things we did in Liverpool along with visiting the Cavern club. Would highly recommend this Beatles bus tour and to top it off the sun shone on the open top bus just gorgeous seeing lots of Liverpool we would not have seen - we even had a special visitor who popped on at penny lane to say hello who played with the quarrymen! If you do nothing else related to the Beatles do this one tour 😉
Great time had on the Beatles bus tour, Liverpool.

5.00Had a great Beatles bus tour whilst on my friends celebratory birthday weekend in Liverpool. We thoroughly enjoyed the commentary from Damion, the stop off points and photographs taken by Joe the driver. Very informative and enjoyable. The sunny day also made it great. Would recommend if you are visiting Liverpool. Thank you both.
