A Walk Through Time: History of Liverpool Walking Tour

Having never visited Liverpool before, we thought it would be a good idea to find out more about its history than just the Beatles. The guide took us from 1207 up to present day and highlighted how important the docks had been and the innovation that were world first's which was fab. Although the tour was nearly 2 hours, you cover less than a mile making it suitable for all walking abilities.

As soon as John introduced himself, I knew we were in luck as I had many glowing reviews about his knowledge. He lived up to the reputation and the tour was excellent. Not too much walking as most things were very close together. We didn't get the bottle of water that was to be included....not a Biggie, just take your own if you feel the need to have one. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic guided tour with the brilliant John yesterday who passionately shares his wealth of knowledge on the history of Liverpool and the significance of the docks, the background to the incredible buildings and how Liverpool came to be the great city it is today. We took a friend who is from Liverpool and he loved it also and learned things he didn't know. Highly recommended, especially to complement all the other many interesting things to do in Liverpool. Thank you John. This was an amazing tour and a pleasure and privilege to benefit from your incredible knowledge of this fabulous city.

We really enjoyed the tour. Our guide was like a living history book and we learned a lot of surprising things about the city and its stories over time

John was a brilliant guide providing a non stop commentary packed full of interesting facts on this excellent city. Himself a proud Scouser he gave a humorous and well balanced presentation- would thoroughly recommend him.

This is a phantastic tour if you are interested in a detailed historic account of Liverpool’s development.

Our guide John was excellent - knowledgeable, engaging speaker, friendly and very willing to take questions and discuss any aspect of the tour. Altogether excellent

John was amazing so knowledgeable & great to listen to!! A fantastic experience!! A welcome historic break during our hen weekend.

Did a tour with John. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the city and delivered a great tour. The tour provides an in-depth look at Liverpool’s History.

Absolutely fantastic tour. Very informative and the tour guide really knew his stuff. Sometimes you can meet a tour guide who only knows a script, but this guy blows all others out the water. He's a local historian who is well qualified and experienced. I would highly recommend this tour even over others in Rome, Paris and London. Value or money and well worth the time
