Description

From the place where Liverpool's wealth flowed in at the Albert Dock to the cellar where The Beatles played nearly 300 gigs before the world caught on – this walking tour takes you through the stories Liverpool doesn’t put on postcards. Start at the Royal Albert Dock, and discover the hidden symbolism in the statues there. Walk past the Three Graces where mythical Liver Birds are said to hold the city’s fate, then into the medieval streets that made Liverpool the Second City of the Empire. Pause at the Bombed Out Church – a roofless ruin and end at the Anglican Cathedral, one of Britain’s largest. Available in 9 languages. Use the app’s map and photos to navigate between stops. No group to wait for, no schedule to follow – pause for a pint, replay a story, or duck into a museum whenever you like. Over 25,000 travelers have used our self-guided tours, and this Liverpool audio tour comes with a full refund guarantee. Your city, your walk, your time.

Excellent Audio Tour Option

We came across this App in another City and specifically looked at their offering for Liverpool and found this walking tour around the key sights at the docks etc. We found being able to load the tour to your phone and just stop-start really flexible. The Tour was pretty informative and a good way to get round some of the key locations. We had walked a few on our own from the Hotel but the route was walkable and the information useful. The guide is AI voiced but really realistic and natural apart from pronouncing the Liver Birds as ‘LIVER’ Birds rather than ‘LY-VER’ Birds. Cost effective and informative Tour.

Great audio tour in Dutch. Clear route.

The tour worked fine. Navigating went reasonably well. Still have to look a lot on smartphone. Navigating with Google Maps (with audio directions) would be a nice addition.

Tourific is a great App. Users friendly and accessible

The App of Tourific worked excellently. In addition, the route to the points with Google Maps would be an addition.

Little information

Overall quite banal explanations, there is more potential there

A really nice tour, varied and not only passes by the great sights. The explanations were spoken by a real person with a nice to hear accent.

Really good route, lots...

Really good route, lots of sights we would have missed otherwise. Made for a really good morning. Audio very clear. Shared an earphone each, so we could still discuss at the same time.

Operator response

Thank you! We’re glad you enjoyed the route and discovered new sights along the way. Great to hear the audio worked well for you too.

Great value and excellent idea, easy to use

Great idea, the pace is self determined which is great plus just the right amount of information. And you can revisitas many times. Very easy to follow.. Only complaint was whenever I went to my camera to take pics I had to sign back in again with my code. Bit frustrating.

Operator response

Thank you for your thoughtful feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the flexibility and found the information just right. We appreciate your note about having to sign back in and will work on improving this for a smoother experience.
