Beatles Blue tour with Jimmy as guide and Arthur as the driver - Jimmy and Arthur were an amazing duo. Great Brish humour and fun stories to go with the tour. Arthur made some good photos of us as well as himself

Fab Four and City tour. - Chloe and Arthur were super. Very informative, funny and entertaining. Plenty of opportunities to ask questions. The route was perfect for Beatles history, Penny Lane, Strawberry Fields, The Fab Four's childhood homes. Photo stops at all the relevant spots. Highly recommend. We took our 80 year old mum, who thoroughly enjoyed the 90 minute tour.

Yellow Submarine - Most amazing and entertaining open bus tour I’ve ever been on. Took my daughter to Liverpool for a pre 21st Birthday trip. It was a glorious day with the wind whistling through your hair and the bushes (literally! the lady in front kept shouting duck, hilarious), my daughter was serenaded by Damian on his guitar and everyone joined it. Very informative tour, I learnt a lot about the Beatles and a great way to explore parts of Liverpool you otherwise wouldn’t see. It was the driver Arthur and guide Damian that made it special! Thank you

Just Do It - Had a lovely time, Driver Arthur was so funny telling us all the old jokes the ones you groan and laugh at at the same time. And our Guide Tommy was very good and was very informative and also funny. Worth every penny. 🤣😂

Blue bus Beatles tour. - Excellent tour, very informative and a must for all Beatles fans, including stopping off at strawberry field and penny lane for photo opportunities. Our guides Arthur and Tommy were brilliant, full of knowledge and fun. Good value aswell especially when your tickets gives you the hop on hop off tour aswell, which we used to do the to the tour but also hop off at the pub where john used to drink and Paul filmed the carpool Karaoke with James Corden, for a free glass of bubbly. All in all excellent tour, would highly recommend.

Spanish friends loved this! - I went on this tour with my Spanish couple friends & their 2 kids (16 & 12). The 90 min tour was a really good experience, with me as an adopted Scouser of 35 years enjoying it as much as my friends. It was a sunny day & the drive through the tree-lined roads of South Liverpool was fantastic- you see a different view of South Liverpool & my Spanish friends loved seeing the different areas & houses/parks etc. Lots of people waving to the bus! The craic was great with a very good commentary provided by Damian, including guitar playing, jokes, anecdotes, interesting encyclopaedic knowledge of places & dates provided, along with accompanying Beatles songs playing over the speaker. Both Damian & driver Arthur were excellent - helping out by taking photos at the Penny Lane & Strawberry Field stops, and were very friendly & accommodating. Thoroughly recommend this tour!
