November 2025. It made my day

5.00Absolutely amazing tour. Im a young frankie/ 80s fan, Nasher made me feel welcome and is a lovely guy and was willing to sign as much memorabilia as you wanted and answer questions. He took us to a couple of pubs and bought us all a free drink each. The tour was very informative and very interesting to hear about both frankie goes to hollywood/history of Liverpool and the beatles. One thing I will add to prepare for the tour is to make sure that you eat well before you go onthe tour as there are no food stops onthe tour. This is the mistake me and my family made, we didn't eat much before the tour and had a big journey to Liverpool aswell. Overall absolutely amazing. Highly recommend for any frankie fan.

5.00I absolutely loved the Nasher walking tour of Liverpool. From start to finish it was engaging and genuinely fascinating, with Nasher himself sharing stories and insights that brought the city’s musical history to life. I couldn’t quite believe I was walking around Liverpool hearing about Frankie Goes to Hollywood’s history first hand from someone who had lived it. The tour was brilliantly paced, with two well-timed drink stops that gave us chance to ask questions and chat as a group. What stood out most was how friendly and down-to-earth Nasher was — he made everyone feel welcome and valued throughout. It was a fantastic experience that I’ll never forget, and I can’t recommend the tour highly enough.
Fab trip for music lovers

5.00Great afternoon with someone who clearly loves Liverpool and its history not just music - was a great trip down memory lane for us and a reminder that the music scene here is more than just the Beatles. Brian was so interesting and generous with his time we were still with him at 4pm Highly recommended

5.00Really enjoyed the tour. Brian loves Liverpool. His passion for the city is clear. The stories were all interesting. Highlight for me was the visit to the Bridewell bar, which is a part of FGTH’s early history, for a drink and chat. Brian was very open to questions and he made sure everyone was involved. Loved it. Thanks Brian. You’re a top fella.
An excellent tour

5.00A great tour of our own city with Nasher from Frankie! Great tales along the way and also great insight into how the music business used to operate (recording process, etc). All topped off with a few pints with Brian! Best tour guide!
Hanging out with a member of FGTH. Awesome!

5.00Brilliant. Nasher is such a nice bloke. Friendly, accomodating (I alas arrived late). Makes you feel like you belong. A people person who's a good conversationalist, I spent 5 hours with him and wished I had more time! How often do you get the chance to hang with a bonafide pop/rock star? The tour is well worth it. As an example of character it started raining and he offered an umbrella to a lady in the group who had no protection
Brilliant walking tour

5.00This was such a wonderful tour. Nasher provides such a great range of insights about the music scene over the years in Liverpool, combining it with a rich tapestry of stories about life in the city itself. Combine this with lots of time to also enjoy Nasher's company and discuss all the history of Frankie and more besides, it's the perfect way to spend a few hours in Liverpool.
Outstanding.

5.00Fantastic day with Brian yesterday. A minefield of information mixed with his cutting sense of humour. Great sharing a few pints with him at the end.
I can't recommend this...

5.00I can't recommend this experience enough. This experience was not only a musical tour but also a tour of local history through Nasher's knowledge. Nasher makes you feel like you've known him for years, it's a fabulous way of spending the afternoon. I was a huge FGTH fan in the 80's, you're told not to meet your heroes but this doesn't apply to Nasher. With a group of the nicest people you could wish to meet we spent the afternoon talking, reminiscing and sharing stories along with Nasher. This experience is a must for FGTH fans and anyone who wants to see the sights of Liverpool with an informative guide!
