April to October

Liverpool is a city that immediately grabs your attention – a vibrant blend of maritime history, musical legacy, and contemporary culture. It’s a destination that can be enjoyed in countless ways; whether you’re planning a quick day trip from a cruise ship, a longer exploration over several days, or perhaps travelling with the family seeking entertainment, there’s something here to captivate everyone. The sheer breadth of experiences available makes it perfect for both adventurous travellers eager for action-packed tours and those content to simply soak up the atmosphere and discover hidden gems.

The beauty of planning your Liverpool adventure through us is that we offer a truly diverse selection of activities, carefully curated to cater to a wide range of interests and budgets. You can easily construct a whirlwind tour focused on the city’s iconic landmarks, delve into its rich past with one of our many historical tours – there are over 26 available – or immerse yourself in the sounds that defined an era with a Beatles-themed experience. We have options ranging from intimate, small-group adventures to larger bus tours offering access to Chester and beyond.

For those interested in art, Liverpool boasts an impressive collection of galleries and studios, and you can explore this through one of our 21 available art tours which range in price from £8 up to a considerable investment of £699. Alternatively, if history is your passion, you could join a ‘Beatles Famous Walking Tour of Liverpool - Shore Excursion’ – consistently rated the highest at 5.0/5 and costing between £5 and £250. Or perhaps you'd prefer something a little darker with one of our Ghost Tours, available in a range from just £20 to £135, again with top-rated options like the ‘Private Liverpool Dark Side Walking Tour’.

Food lovers will be delighted by the variety of tours on offer; from exploring the city’s culinary delights with a ‘A Taste of Liverpool Food & Drink Tour’ (a consistently high-scoring 5.0/5 costing between £100 and £120) to indulging in a Wine Tour Experience, also rated 5.0/5 at around £19 – these are great ways to discover the city's flavours. For those seeking a more traditional experience, our ‘Liverpool Historic Pub Walk: Local Stories & Small Groups’ (also 5.0/5 and priced from £25) provides an excellent opportunity to sample local ales and learn about the city's pub culture. There are even options for families with the 'Tributes and Tiaras Hosted at The Benidorm Bar Liverpool' which has a top rating of 5.0/5 and costs as little as £5.

Beyond these core experiences, we offer more specialized adventures. If you’re an artist yourself, consider one of our photography tours – with prices ranging from £140 to £218 for a professional photoshoot experience, or perhaps you'd like to test your skills in one of the many Escape Rooms available, with options starting at just £3. For those looking for a bit of physical activity, there are Adventure Tours offering wine tasting and experiences, while our historical tours cover a huge range of topics from maritime history to industrial heritage. You can even spend a day exploring the stunning Lake District from Liverpool on a ‘Private Tour: The Lake District from Liverpool’ (5.0/5), costing between £6 and £900.

We also have plenty of options for those who enjoy nightlife, with tours ranging from pub crawls (£8 - £450) to drag queen bar crawls (£49 – £76). If you're seeking a truly unique experience, consider one of our seasonal events tours, offering everything from private tours to larger group experiences. Our most highly-rated option is the ‘Private Tour: The Lake District from Liverpool’ at 5.0/5, but there are plenty more options available across all categories – with prices ranging from £4 to £900.

Finally, if you're interested in archaeology or simply want a deeper understanding of the city, our Archaeology Tours offer a fascinating insight into Liverpool’s past. We understand that budgets vary, and we have tours catering to almost every price point; for instance, you can find options as low as £4 for a walking tour, or spend upwards of £900 on an exclusive Beatles experience. No matter your interests or budget, there's a fantastic way to discover the unique character of Liverpool with us.
