A Great Afternoon Being Hosted Around Liverpool's Musical History by The Farm's Peter Hooton - Recommended! Myself & a friend attended the Liverpool Musical Icon's Tour with the Farm's Peter Hooton and what an excellent experience it was. I have to admit to already being something of a fan of Peter's prior to attending the tour, for many reasons: His 'originator' status when it comes to the birth of terrace-fashion, his involvement in the 70's/80's/90's Liverpool fanzine & music-scene, his impeccable musical-tastes and of course, the success he had as part of the Farm ......... all this (and plenty more) is touched-on during the tour. No Liverpool music tour would be possible without some Beatles content & Peter did touch on the Fab-4, but this is absolutely NOT a Beatles-centric tour ........ it is far, far wider than that. We found ourselves winding a route around the city at a reasonable pace (finding time for a mid-tour pint), touching on general history of the city, significant architectural touch-stones & of course, primarily, the rich musical history across multiple decades & genres...... all delivered with Peter's insightfulness & sense of humour. The tour concluded with the group having time for another beverage with Peter which gave the opportunity to chat in further detail on things that maybe weren't covered on the tour, but which they had a specific interest in. Peter was a great host & spent quite a bit of time with this and autographs/photo's, etc. The consensus across all the group was a great afternoon had by all.

Best £60 I’ve ever spent!! - I cannot recommend this tour enough. It was a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon in the company of Peter Hooton. Peter’s knowledge of all eras of the Liverpool music scene is unparalleled and this is evident throughout the tour. A stop off for a beer during the tour and one at the end of the tour was the icing on the cake. Some fabulous chat about football and music throughout the day from one of music’s most genial figures.

An enjoyable afternoon - A fantastic afternoon in the excellent company of Peter Hooton. The walk around Liverpool was informative, enlightening & humourous. Peter's stories & knowledge of the local area & the range of musicians, artists & venues covered was both extensive & impressive. Calling in to a couple of pubs during the walk is also a great chance to chat with Peter, ask questions & get to know the other people taking part in the walk. All in all a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon.

Best music tour of Liverpool. - Amazing day. The tour with Peter Hooton was fantastic. We saw many places that would not be on other tours. Stories from the The swinging 60s through to Britpop in the 90s. Even covers the 00s. Peters personal stories were my favourites though. Tour finished off with drinks and more stories from Peter in the pub. Best tour of the city.

Entertaining and informative tour with a local music legend - As someone who is from Liverpool I learnt so much in this tour that I didn’t know. Pete was a great guide who was very knowledgeable and brought Liverpool’s music history to life. Thoroughly recommend the tour.

Fantastic day out - This tour is amazing. There was so much we learned about the music scene in our city. Peter was really knowledgeable with great stories and fantastic music along the way. We would highly recommend this tour - thanks Peter!

Liverpool Icon Tour is a must! - The tour's a must for music fans of all ages. Amazing afternoon with a true Liverpool icon. Very authentic.Thanks Peter

excellent - This was an amazing Experience and a really good tour. Peter was very knowledgeable and what a lovely Guy. A must for music fans of all ages. What a good guy!

Thought I knew music until I did this tour - Excellent tour which I'd highly recommend. Peter has a vast knowledge of the Liverpool music scene to share and a multitude of great stories. Although the tour does touch on the Beatles, it is far more about exploring the post-Merseybeat music scene and boy is there a lot of it. The number of perfectly ordinary looking bars which have a rich musical heritage was astounding. The only bad thing I can say about the tour is that it made me wish I could timetravel in order to make the most of my new found knowledge!

Manchester post punk and Madchester rave tour. - The Tour was very interesting and deep inside the Manchester postpunk and Madchester Rave szene with any funny sidekicks. I definitly recommend this tour.
