HOW WE TRAIN OUR DRIVER GUIDES
Eddie (pictured) is one of our long standing Fab 4 driver guides. He retired from driving a couple of years ago after being a cabbie for Merseycabs and ComCab for over 35 years. He joined Fab 4 in 2012 and retired in 2022.
Today, Eddie is our senior driver guide trainer and “jumped at the chance I was given for the love of still being involved with anything Beatles”…
Eddie is extremely passionate and our driver guide training is aimed at passing this passion on to you. The main elements of our driver guide training consist of:
WORKSHOP / TALK
Gaining in-depth understanding of The Beatles and their role in Liverpool then and today.
JOIN THE TOUR
Part of the training is to shadow some of the tours and have hands-on training with existing guides.
DO THE TOUR!
When confident and ready, after some theory and practical elements, you are ready for your first tours...
