There are options to choose but this is the best one. The route captures all the key and interesting places. The people giving the LIVE commentary are extremely knowledgeable and very amusing.

Would recommend but.....the tour guide/speaker did not know his left from his right, kept stating the wrong locations and as it was raining and already hard to see, we missed quite a lot of things whiulst looking on the wrong side of the street

This was a very good way to see Liverpool-we went around the city,and our tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly.
Excellent way of seeing the sights.

Bus was not on time. Dirty buses. Hard to find stops. Politically incorrect jokes instead of tour info. Bus driver couldn’t issue tickets from out scan as stated on the website. We were told to get that done at stop 1. Wasted time. Volume on speakers could be turned down. Sound like a rock concert…

Great way to see the city. We did a couple loops around before hopping off and on, taking the opportunity to sit in the upper deck as soon as it became available where it was easier to see what the tour guide was describing. We experienced 3 different guides, each had different things to add about the city during the loop, and some easier to understand through the speaker system and accents.

Guides were too loud and not timely with the sites. A little more development about what we were about to see and more history.

David was a fantastic and knowledgeable commentator on our City Explorer Sightseeing Bus. He also had a great sense of humour, but still managed to tell us lots of historical and interesting stories!

The hop on hop off bus was helpful in learning about the various areas of the city and helping us determine where to get off the bus.

Good tour however you can see all just walking if you can walk .
Pretty informative.
Recommending it

Phil, what a great time we had on your tour!
Informative, funny, great stories! Highly recommend! For a two-hour walking tour, it was over (sadly) before we knew it. Well done, Phil!

It was astonishing for us the way the trip offers to hop on and hop off at the desired spots and spend our time so effortlessly. Definitely recommend it. The narrator was thorough and funny
Christine_M, Sep 2024
The tour was very informative and fun. It was a great way to see the downtown area. We rode the full circle around then picked a few stops to hop on/off.

The good hospitality of the hosts and their history knowledge was amazing. We loved their stories and kind gestures. It was so welcoming and entertaining.

Great tour of the beautiful city of Liverpool! Great tour guide who provided excellent commentary of all the sites. Our tour was a city tour only (which we wanted) - make sure to book the Beatles tour if you want to see those locations. Highly recommend!

Interesting and knowledgeable guides brought Liverpool to life for our friend who had never been before. We are all pensioners and some of us can't walk very far, so it was an interesting way to see the city. Would definitely use again
Owen_J, Jul 2024
Very knowledgeable tour guides, great way to experience the city for the first time. Would book it again.
Stanley_P, Jun 2024
The guide was hard to understand due to his fast talking and thick accent. The speakers on the bus did not help the situation. We had to sit down stairs due to the number of passengers. In order to see the Beatles, you must purchase a different bus pass with the same company.
Over all, I would not recommend..

There was so much to learn about, we did the full route twice. Really enjoyed Matthew st. and the Beatles Museum there. Had a proper pint at a local pub.

Good tour for people who don't know Liverpool. Takes you to the main landmarks and is valid over 2 days, which is great, as it's impossible to do it all in one day if you get off and visit the landmarks. We had 2 different guides during our tour and they were very different in their manner. We didn't appreciate the unfunny 'adult humour' of the male guide, but really enjoyed the lady guide's tour, which was entertaining and informative.
Caroline_M, Feb 2024
Very good informative bus tour the man giving us all the information and chat was very good highly recommend
Gaye_W, Oct 2023
Very clean buses. The staff were really friendly & a good commentary. Buses turned up on time. It was warm enough to sit outside on the top deck.
Richard_A, Sep 2023
Speakers were fantastic and did a great job bringing the history to life! The stops selected were perfect and we really had a great time.

Garry was hilarious and shared lots of interesting facts about Liverpool! Nice way of going around the city.
Helen_A, Aug 2023
The guide, Viv, was friendly, funny and very knowledgeable/informative .
Great to be able to hop on and off.
Robert_L, Aug 2023
How easy to validate our tickets. Short ride but sights were amazing sites. Keep the promise of buses every 20 minutes was great
Noran_R, Jul 2023
Terrible! Hopped off and the bus never came back by. Called the office and they said to just keep waiting, that the bus comes by every 15 minutes and was nearby, but over an hour of waiting we had to get an Uber ourselves. If you just want to ride the loop and not get off, maybe it would be better.

Interesting and informative commentary . Loved Liverpool would definitely go and visit again . We were in a family get together and there was plenty for the different age gaps to do
Nancy_W, Jun 2023
We were on a cruise and the bus was easy to find once we disembarked. We had a wonderful narrator on the bus, Viv. She had plenty to share about the city and had great jokes. It was a great way to see the city and we were able to hop off and do a few activities that we wouldn't have thought of otherwise.
