Overview

See Liverpool through the eyes of a “scouser” (a Liverpudlian) who’s passionate about the city and its sights. On a walking tour, you’ll have Liverpool’s history brought to life as you learn how the northern city has become the lively place it is today. Hear stories of the Beatles, see the Albert Dock, and discover the lesser-known sights that only locals tend to know.
  • Secure your spot in advance for a popular Liverpool tour
  • See the Cavern Club, an iconic site linked to the Beatles
  • Learn through hearing fun facts instead of dry history
  • Find impressive photo points that you might miss otherwise

    Tour of Liverpool

    A wonderful tour from Martin with a group of 9 friends. Martin made it both informative and entertaining, his knowledge and passion for Liverpool was incredible. It didn’t matter what questions we had he was able both to answer it and add other facts and stories. All round a wonderful tour.

    Great tour

    Nicola_E, Jun 2025
    We were shown around by Martin, my companion is blind and Martin made an extra effort to explain what he was seeing in lots of details for him. What Martin doesn’t know about Liverpool isn’t worth knowing. He’s a lovely friendly guy and we both enjoyed the tour that he gave us.

    Wonderful walking tour

    Dan was a wonderful guide during our walking tour of Liverpool. He made history vivid, understandable, human. He can sing too. 😊

    The highlight of the holiday

    Outstanding Walking Tour of Liverpool

    Robin_R, Aug 2024
    We had a fantastic walking tour with Martin. He was knowledgeable about the city and filled our tour with great information and anecdotes. We are from the United States, and he taught us a bit about our US history and how it relates to the city of Liverpool, which is near the cruise port. It was amazing.

    A fantastic day in Liverpool!

    James_C, Jul 2024
    Dan was an outstanding guide! He gave us all sorts of history of Liverpool, covering everything from the background of the port, the Liverpool music scene, even a connection to the American Civil War (which I was completely unaware of), and much more.

    Great tour! Recommend highly!!!

    Roger_G, Jun 2024
