About the tour
This tour will give you unique insight into the history of Liverpool in the 20th century and get you acquainted with the watershed moments that changed not only the history of the city and the country, but the entire world!
Our adventure begins at the iconic Beatles Statue, a symbolic tribute to the band that changed the music scene.
As we walk through the lively streets, we’ll reach the legendary Cavern Club, the birthplace of The Beatles’ extraordinary career. Feel the musical energy that shaped their early years as we explore the very place where they first captured the hearts of their fans. (P.S We also would like to talk about Pete Best, The Beatles’ former Drummer)
Continuing our journey, we encounter the moving statues of Eleanor Rigby and Brian Epstein, that remind us of the profound impact of The Beatles’ music on the world.
We’ll visit The Jacaranda Club, a historic venue where The Beatles performed during their formative years, before their career developed. Feel the echoes of the past, just like at The Philharmonic Pub, a majestic Victorian establishment, and Ye Cracke, a traditional pub with a interesting history – all places where The Beatles occasionally enjoyed a drink.
Venturing further, we reach the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts (LIPA), founded by Sir Paul McCartney. Explore the institution that continues to nurture emerging talents, following in the footsteps of the founding members of The Beatles: George Harrison, Stuart Sutcliffe, and John Lennon.
Join us on this walking tour, in English and Spanish, where the melodies of The Beatles intertwine with the historic charm of Liverpool, creating an unforgettable experience for fans and music lovers alike.
