Very experienced and helpful guide - Short but very thorough visit. Very experienced and helpful guide. It focused on key information, important to understand the city, instead of folkloric but little useful anecdotes, as sometimes happens with guided tours. Many ideas for further study. Absolutely recommended.

Outstanding high quality tour of the history of Liverpool city - Like other reviews we really enjoyed the 2 hours tour. It was end to end full of interesting facts about the history of Liverpool. He crammed so much into the time but also had broad enough knowledge to answer all the ‘off script’ questions as well. Well worth it.

Fantastically detailed tour - A really fantastic tour. The guide was extremely knowledgeable and clearly passionate about his subject - Liverpool. He went into a lot of depth, so I think maybe not for children but it suited us really well and gave us a really good understanding of the context of the city. A perfect thing to do on the first day of our visit.

Very Informative but Fast Paced - The tour guide’s knowledge and information provided was incredible, but he spoke rather fast and I had a hard time keeping up.
