Great fun. We went primarily for our daughter, but ended up having just as much fun as she did. Our tour guide was the best. Loved seeing his photo with Paul!!

Self-guided tour, with minimal interaction with tour operator. The Beatles Story museum is well presented. The Mystery Tour bus tour stops or drives by many historically relevant Beatles sites. Return to LIverpool should be earlier or additional afternoon activities included.

I really enjoyed the tour and learning more about the Beattles. I took the tour in conjunction with the National Trust Tour of the interior of the Beatles childhood homes. My only concern which could have been a serious problem was that the locat Tour Agency, Evan Evans, did not book my bus tour with them for the afternoon as discussed with Viator. They claimed that Viator did not inform them, and that there was nothing that they could do. I was lucky in that one seat was available for the afternoon tour and I was able to make the change myself. Otherwise I would not have been able to take the tour that I paid for, as I had a morning tour with the National Trust Tour. Evan Evans did not care about what had happened, would not assist me, and they were half an hour late in meeting us at the train station in Liverpool. I would be interested to know if Viator actually told Evan Evans to book the afternoon tour as I had discussed with them, or as Evan Evans indicated, that Viator never told Evan Evans.

We very much enjoyed the tour, and have recommended it to friends. It was an ideal way to see the city whilst on a short break, thank you.

It was awesome. The guide did an excellent job and the fact of having The Beatles music all the way was fantastic. The organisation very well. A little critic would be to provide a better Liverpool map. It was kind of confusing. But anyway, it was a great experience.

The tour was amazing! I've been a Beatles fan since I was 10, and now my 11-year-old daughter is too, and our whole family enjoyed this tour. The train ride up from London was smooth, and we were able to walk through Liverpool on our way to The Beatles Story museum. The museum is great, and the audio guides were perfect for our daughter to easily learn the Beatles history without having to read everything posted. My only complaint there was that the music playing over the speakers in the museum was a bit loud, so it was sometimes hard to hear the audio guide. The Magical Mystery Tour bus ride was fantastic! We stopped on Penny Lane, at Strawberry Fields, and got out at both George and Paul's boyhood homes. The tour guide was great and told amazing stories about the Beatles. The only downside was that the day was sunny and warm and the air conditioning on the bus wasn't working well. A once in a lifetime experience well worth the money! I would absolutely recommend this tour to any Beatles fan.

This was the highlights of my trip! I really enjoyed the flex time and freedom in between activities to explore Liverpool. I realized that there is so much to do and see there and I hope to return someday! I felt this was well worth the money! I learned lots of fun little facts that I could never have learned from books or documentaries. To be in the Beatles home town and see the places that had meaning for them was a treat, and I have a greater scope and appreciation for their work!

Loved it! The whole experience was great. We had no stress entry into the museum and the Magical Mystery Tour was so informative. Perfect way to experience Liverpool, I wish we could have stayed longer!

We really enjoyed the trip. The rail was comfortable and trip was well organized. The Mystery Tour and Beatles live was well worth it. You may want to consider allowing some people to take an earlier train back (though we used all the time with other activities, and music in the Cavern Club.)

The trip was wonderful and we really enjoyed the Magical Mystery Tour and the museum. It was just enough time to see everything and do everything without being rushed. It's convenient to have everything organized for you, but honestly, it would have been just the same if we had booked it on our own. The lady we met at Euston station didn't arrive until 6:30 and we were a bit nervous since we were told to arrive 10 minutes early and didn't know when the train left, and the map they gave us was worthless--printed off of Google maps or something. There's a coin operated machine in Liverpool Lime Street Station where we picked up a good map for a pound. Since it's a self-guided tour, there's really no point in booking through a tour company--just get the train tickets, tour tickets, and museum tickets on your own.

A great trip for my wife, son and me. we were also very pleasantly surprised at how nice Liverpool was. Plenty of time for us (Beatles fans) as well as being able to explore the Albert Dock and the Maritime Museum. Train was also very smooth and scenic.

The Beatles Story, Magical Mystery Tour, and train ride was great. We had a fantastic time. The agent we met at Euston Train Station gave us an inadequate map and told us we were on our own. Fortunately, we were able to purchase a good map of Liverpool at the train station. The walk from the train station was confusing, but there were signs pointing to Albert Dock, and it is hard to miss. Once we found everything, the visit was very good. We enjoyed the visit to the Cavern Club. There is a very good Irish Pub with good prices past the Cavern Club. Our train ride going and returning was very pleasant.
