Brilliant tour of Liverpool! Have already done one history tour on the origins and development of Liverpool centred mainly around the docks area. This one, Liverpool Imperial Tour, led by Helen, reached into the areas, geographically, historically, culturally, that the first one didn’t cover. As Helen said, it’s like a jigsaw, putting all the pieces together, and doing more than one tour helps with this. Thank you!

Fantastic in depth information & stories about the history & development of Liverpool & it's most iconic buildings. Our guide was brilliant, so knowledgeable & entertaining. Loved it all, especially finding the old police station (now a pub) where Charles Dickens researched police work for his novels, hearing about the early trading & shipping around the port & seeing where Paul & John were at school/art college when they met. Wear comfy shoes & take water. There are opportunities for loo stops on the route.
