WHAT TO BRING

GOOD TO KNOW

THE JOHN LENNON STORY

Begin your tour at the registry office where John married his first wife - you’ll find out why this was hardly the romantic wedding of Cynthia’s dreams! Then, step back in time and see the place where Lennon was born.

THE JOHN LENNON STORY

HOPE STREET

As you drive along Hope Street (which links two of Liverpool's architectural gems), pass the stunning Philharmonic Dining Rooms. You may recognise this from Carpool Karaoke when Paul McCartney gave a (not untypical) surprise concert!

HOPE STREET

HIDDEN BEATLES STORIES

Continue past Brian Epstein’s old flat and discover which Beatles song was written here. Check out Paul McCartney and George Harrison’s old school – yes, they were friends before the days of the Beatles! Your knowledgeable & talented driver guide will entertain you with a host of anecdotes and trivia about the Beatles and Liverpool.

HIDDEN BEATLES STORIES

STUDENT DIGS

Just around the corner is the attractive 19th century terraced house where Lennon and Stuart Sutcliffe shared a student flat.

We recommend you bring suitable clothing for changing weather and comfortable footwear for your tour. Bring layers. This is Britain and we do tend to have four seasons in one day.

What are the guides like?

In short, fab! Some of them love to tell the fascinating history of the Beatles as if they lived it themselves, others know hidden secrets of every Fab4, and every one of them wants to make you love their city as much as they do. They will keep you entertained on the journey with music and stories and give you plenty of time for photos & questions.
