Excellent tour of Liverpool guided by Roy

Loved it! I did the tour with Roy and it was amazing! The city is beautiful and Roy very friendly. I was alone so it was a private city tour. The guide told the story of each place we visited, important details and answered each of my questions. How Argentina and a person who speaks Spanish as a main language, Roy's English understood very well for me, which is extremely important! I recommend 100%

Kudos to Mr.Roy for keeping me Comfortable and for sharing his knowledge about Liverpool culture, sports, Music & Business.

Liverpool in the rain!

We ended up being the only people that showed up (very rainy morning) so we had an excellent private tour with Fran D’Arcy. We walked throughout the main area of Liverpool with lots of stops & stories of the history of the buildings & areas. Mathew’s street memorabilia of the Beatles was amazing. We continued on for many more sites and Fran welcomed all of my questions. We discovered Liverpool is a beautiful city with a mix of old & new.
