5.00Our guide Gary was informative, engaging and funny. His love for Liverpool was infectious. Gary showed us around on foot and on a bus and gave great insight into every venue he described. There were four of us in our party and he took time to get to know us as he showed us around, a real people person. I would highly recommend using this company and if you get Gary as your guide, a win double!
Gary Friday was amazing

5.00Gary was incredible! He had many great stories from Liverpool‘s connection to the US Civil War, the Titanic, WWI and WWII and up to the Beatles. Never had a tour guide try so hard to include all the tourists as well as trying to remember everybody’s name. The tour was very enjoyable and we learned a lot about Liverpool in a very short time. Had a good time

5.00Liverpool Walking Tour with Gary Friday – Absolutely Fantastic! I just did the Liverpool Tour with Gary Friday, taking a few "out of town" family and friends to something different. It has to be said, it was absolutely brilliant! Gary is so good! Knows everything about Liverpool – he's like a walking encyclopaedia of the city! We started at the massive Liverpool Cathedral, and Gary had these stories about how they ran out of cash halfway through building it (but still managed to pull it off!). As we wandered around, Gary pointed out all the best places to see – the old warehouses and buildings from when Liverpool was a mega port. The legendary Cavern Club was a highlight for sure. Gary had these amazing tales about the Beatles' early days in Liverpool that really painted a picture of what the music scene was like back in the day. What made the tour great was Gary's humour and awesome energy. He's clearly crazy about Liverpool and its incredible history. I walked away loving this city even more after hanging out with Gary. If you're in Liverpool, book a tour with Gary – it's brilliant! And Gary himself? He's a top-notch guide who makes the whole thing absolutely fantastic!
Brilliant night
