Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We took the 3 hour personal tour as we were tight on time for a train out in the afternoon. Our driver was there ready to go and waiting on us on time. His name is Joey Lyons. He was excellent! My wife, son and I each thoroughly enjoyed the tour. The stories he told made what we looked at come to life like a personal visit in a Time Machine to the 1950’s and 60’s. I’d book with Liverpool Beatles Tours anytime I come back. Cheers!

As a lifelong Beatles fan visiting Liverpool had always been a dream. When my wife and I finally had the opportunity and we chose Liverpool Beatles Tours. We were able to choose what we wanted to see and they made an itinerary that fit our time schedule perfectly. David, our driver and guide was excellent. I couldn’t have asked for more. I highly recommend them if you’re planning on going to Liverpool.

We took a full day tour with Dave (and his driver, Ian) and it was worth every penny. My American friend - a Beatles fan since childhood - had come to Liverpool especially to do the tour and I know that she was not a bit disappointed! It might seem expensive at first sight, but you get Dave's undivided attention all day and escorted to the key sites and others you had no idea were there. Dave and Ian are both extremely knowledgeable AND very funny and gave us the best day imaginable. I fully recommend.

Absolutely fantastic day with David. He is so knowledgeable and accomodating, and took us to places we would never have been able to find or understand on our own. We combined Beatles, Liverpool history and WWII into one, fantastic 5 hour tour, ending with the Liverpool Cathedral, which was one of our special requests. We thought we'd be exhausted, but actually, we did not want our time with David and our driver to end. We travel constantly and often book private tours, so we've got a lot to compare this to. It was truly one of the best -- worth every penny!

This is a long time coming. Liverpool Beatles Tours changed my life.
Being a long time Beatles fanatic and historian, i had very high expectations for my second tour of Liverpool. Well let me tell you, Joey and the team surpassed all expectations. We were going to self tour because none of the tour companies looked interesting to me. same ole, same ole. The I found Liverpool Beatles Tours. I reached out to Ian and explained what I would like to do/see and he came straight back with I know the guy.
Joey was incredible. He knew details that I thought i had all the info on but didn't. He spent just right amount of time at each location both inside or outside the car. we never felt rushed or got bored. I wish we had more time with him.
If you want a Beatle tour.....DO NOT go with the others. Liverpool Beatles Tours is by far the best. Just incredible. We will be back to see Ian and Joey again.

If you love the Beatles as much as we do, this tour is a must. Joey was so full unique information about the Fab 4 that are heads are still spinning. The fact that we were able to stand in front of their childhood homes and get pictures was so emotional. A once in a lifetime opportunity, don't miss it! It is well worth the money!

Book this tour with David Bedford! Others can show you around Liverpool, but his love and knowledge of the Beatles, and their city, are apparent. We took the 6 hour tour (which flew by) and immersed ourselves into the world of the early Beatles.
Don't just pass John and Paul's houses on a yellow bus. Get out...go in...play piano in Paul's living room like I did! Stand in John's bedroom... on and on.
Most tours do not go to the Casbah Club, a special slice of Beatles history.
David and driver Ian were a blast to spend the day with, and we highly recommend you book this tour!

It was magical to visit so many of the places that shaped the Beatles and hear the stories of how it all came together. My guide, David Bedford, really brought the whole Beatles story to life and emphasized that the greatest band ever was truly meant to be. It was just a fantastic day all around that I will never forget!

David set up our Beatles tour of Liverpool on what turned out to be Sir Paul McCartney's birthday June 18th. Our guide was Joey and he was fantastic. He's born and bred in Liverpool and he knows the town and of course he knows the Beatles. We booked a four hour tour and Joey made sure that we really got to see everything that we could. We all four Beatles childhood homes, Strawberry Fields, Penny Lane and got a real sense of the city as it was in Beatle days. My family loved the tour and our excellent driver and raconteur Joey. I would highly recommend this tour.

We chose a full day tour with David. He is a class act! He met us at the port (we were on a cruise) and took us to see everything! From Ringo and George's childhood homes to arranging for us to take the National Trust tours of John and Paul's childhood homes! While standing on Penny Lane, he explained exactly was the song was about. He also told us and showed us Strawberry Fields and took us to the church where John and Paul were first introduced. The same church had a cemetery in which Eleanor Rigby was buried. The other big highlight of the day was getting to tour the Casbah Coffee Club. We enjoyed our tour with Roag Best (Pete's great nephew). We were totally immersed in Beatles history and influences during this tour. I can definitely say that

You can request whatever you wish in advance. They build custom tours with your Beatle interests. We saw John an Paul's home and we paid extra to see Stu Sutcliffe's grave . You tell your interest s and they quote you a price. I suggest Ringo stars sentimental journey hotel,casbah club.joh.pauls home,pennylane,philharmonic, roundabout, strawberry fields etc to name a few. Custom Tour ends at Beatles story at the docks. This tour is not cheap like magical mystery bus tours but they stop an explain and take pictures for you. You get what you pay for and this tour beats them all hands down. I also have many Beatle's Liverpool reviews on trip advisor with pictures. Please give a like if you view them. Thanks

I called the number in the listing the morning of my tour (in Dec), whilst they were booked out, they arranged for someone to work on their day off.
The cost for the cab was I think £75, there is not a PEr Person cost. But you can only fit 5 (maybe 6) in the cab.
We didn’t visit the Casbah Club but I believe this is extra per person paid to the club directly.
I can’t recommend the tour enough, I had previously dont the Magical Mystery Tour and this is leaps ahead!

Hi, I am doing a tour of the UK in May-June next year but it doesn't cover Liverpool so I thought I might do a day/night train trip to Liverpool.
I am keen to do a mini bus tour including the Beatle's one where you actually go into their homes. I would also like to see a bit more of Liverpool in the process. The tour guides Stevie T. and Ian had great reviews and would seem to fit what I had in mind. I wondered if you would know the best cheapest train line, times to depart each end i.e. London ti Liverpool and Liverpool back to London. I would spend one night only in Liverpool. Is there a backpackers a sixty-five plus could stay in or a reasonably priced hotel, near the train station you could recommend. Thanks for your help.Trust this finds you fit and well and not too cold, Best regards

Sorry to take so long answering your question. The train trip from London to Liverpool is approx 2 and a half hours. You can find timetables and cheap tickets at a website called "thetrainline".
Can't suggest cheap accomodation as we stayed in a nice hotel a block from The Cavern. So you pay for it. Absolutely recommend the tour, and it is the only one that will get you INSIDE John and Paul's former homes. Enjoy the trip mate. We will remember it for the rest of our lives.

We have never been to England and would love to have a fulfilling two week trip including an extensive Beatles all day exploring tour (and to be able to go INTO the homes, i read tours just drive by...) and then London attractions. PLEASE we have never been out of the United States and I would LOVE to follow someones itinerary that planned out a good (two week?) trip for themselves to England. I really really want to have nice experiences , and I am just lost looking at all the options. We are in our 60's and would be ever so grateful for your guidance's! Please!
