This was an awesome day trip! A must for any Beatles fan - from their heyday or not. The only thing I didn't realize was that there is no tour guide on this tour. I was met at the rail station and given an envelope with train tickets, a map of Liverpool and passes to get into The Beatles Story and to get on the Magical Mystery Tour bus...the rest is up to you! If I had realized that I would have done a little bit of research before going, but it's a pretty straight-forward and small city. Every part of the day was fantastic and to top it off, at the end of the bus tour, they drop you off at The Cavern Club - where we spent 2 hours listening to a brother duo who do covers of Lennon and McCartney songs. A great way to end a great day!
Excellent trip. Had a little trouble finding the girl at Euston Station but from then on everything was fantastic. A must for Beatles fans.
Everything was great!
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!
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.
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.
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.)
A must for any and all Beatles fans!
This was probably my favorite thing we did outside of London! It is a must for Beatles fans and if you aren't a Beatles fan, book it anyway to get a taste of Liverpool. The people in Liverpool are very friendly and Liverpool has a little bit of everything. We didn't find it difficult at all to find our way around, even without a map. As soon as you step off the train, you will see signs directing you where to go, just pay attention! The Beatles museum was ok, nothing too spectacular, but interesting to say the least. The magical mystery tour was the highlight!! We had so much fun on the bus seeing all the Beatles' homes and where they grew up. Our tour guide Paul was a treat and so funny! The tour doesn't go to the Cavern Club because of the roads, but it does drop you off very close by and they will tell you how to get there. We spent several hours at the Cavern Club before the train left for London. We were able to drink some local Liverpool ale and listen to a Beatles cover band that sounded amazing! My husband and I were both in Heaven!!! I would definitely love to return to Liverpool someday because of this tour and our wonderful experience!
Excellent tour and very enjoyable and professional!!
This was a great day for Beatles lovers which we are. The only problem was we were so lost so many times trying to find museum and one of the venues. Directions were terrible. We had to constantly ask directions.
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 trip was a total blast. Our driver and guide were great. Even when the bus died and we had to walk a bit until the bus could catch up with us, no one had any issues. We actually were able to see a few landmarks that the bus would have only been able to pass but not stop at for any length of time. Highly recommened.
If you love the Beatles, GO IN THIS TOUR. Plain and simple. Great museum even some photographers took some photos of us for a tourism award in the kids room while we played on the giant piano. Amazing museum and amazing bus tour. Loved every second of this day! Would give it a 10 star if I could!
My 12 year old daughter and I LOVED this whole experience. I do think the tour bus needs to make an actual stop at "Strawberry Fields." I wanted to get out and take pictures.
