A Great Combo of Liverpool History and Wit! - First time to Liverpool, reviews I read indicated this was a good tour… and my experience today in the group that guide Mike led was so great! Mike has so much interesting knowledge on the history of the city, and how it has grown and changed since it was established - he related it at a pace that I could keep up with, and he obviously has a passion about the city and wanting others to learn about it. Plus the wit he peppered in there was not lost on me, was really an entertaining time! The walk through the docks and the Financial District was especially interesting to me, as was the time to get a pic with The Beatles statue, and it was nice to fit a ~10 minute break in the middle of the tour at the Museum to get a coffee. This was a great investment of time that was well worth the price - learned a lot and had an excellent experience!

Excellent Intro to Liverpool - Our tour with Mike was a very good overview of the history of Liverpool and introduced us a city before The Beatles. It was a good amount of walking but the 2.5+ hours flew by. Mike is knowledgeable and has a great interest and passion for Liverpool. We enjoyed the tour and highly recommend.

Walking time travel shortcut. - We went on the tour with the super well prepared and dedicated Colleen, who gave us plenty of details at each stop but never borred us with long 'lectures'. Perfectly balanced in my opinion. Great to be shown a broad range of architectural details, from different eras, combined with short precise explanations of 'who, how and why', things that we could so easily have overlooked on own since the city is so rich in detail as it is. A great way to explore for first time visitors like us - we absolutely recommend this.
