Liverpool Beatles Experience and Magical Mystery Tour

This was a fun day trip from London.The Beatles museum is full of fun artifacts and treasures to keep any Beatles fan happy. You can take it all in at your own pace. Later you join a guided tour of the key sites in Liverpool where the Beatles lived and played. The guides were entertaining and full of juicy information. We even did an impromptu sing-along with everyone on the tour bus. It was well worth the time and money.

MThe train ride rolling through the English countryside was spectacular. Liverpool Is a shoppers Paradise,with lots of stores and places to shop. The Waterfront was great and the Beatles Museum was a great start to our Liverpool outing. The bus tour was fun informative and a picture takers paradise! It was a long day but one of the highlights of our trip to London.

As a huge Beatles fan, I found this tour to be a once in a lifetime experience!! It was well organized and loaded with interesting info. The upgrade on the train to include meals was well worth it. Although it could be done on your own for much less, having the day all planned for a first visit to Liverpool was great!!

Self-guided tour, with minimal interaction with tour operator. The Beatles Story museum is well presented. The Mystery Tour bus tour stops or drives by many historically relevant Beatles sites. Return to LIverpool should be earlier or additional afternoon activities included.

This tour brought back a lot of memories and I enjoyed it immensely. I found that instructions as to where to go and what to do were too few and at times I felt lost, but I managed to see what I wanted to see. It would be nice if Liverpool actually put more signage up so it was easier to find places. The map we were given was a tad confusing.

Tour guide met us at Euston Station right on time and provided us everything we needed for a successful day trip. If you're a Beatles fan, this trip is worth it for the Magical Mystery Tour alone seeing each lad's childhood home, where John and Paul first met, The Cavern Club, and just the sites of Liverpool with an awesome guide was so much fun! The Beatles Story Museum is full of mostly replicas and just a history of the group, nothing too exciting if you already know everything about The Beatles. Timeline of events allows you to fully enjoy everything without feeling rushed.

Oh my gosh! What can I say about this tour????? FANTASTIC! Up super early, get on the tube, head to Euston Rail Station, and 2 1/2 hours later you are walking through the streets of Liverpool. The street signs are really easy to follow,,head to Albert Dock and you are at the Beatles Story, the best museum in the world for Beatles fans. The train gets to town around 9:30. It's about a 20 minute walk to the museum and then you will have a good 2-3 hours to see all there is, shop for souvenirs, and grab some lunch in their cafe. At 2:00, you board the bus for the Magical Mystery Tour...Penny Lane, Beatles childhood homes, Strawberry Field iron gates, and lastly, The Cavern on Mathew Street. You can actually sit an listen to performers in The Cavern as you sip a drink or grab a sandwich before you head back toward Lime Street Rail Station for the train ride home at 6:30. The William Gladstone pub is right across the street from the end of Mathew Street...super cheap fish and chips and really good. It's a fantastic tour to take. The day is filled with everything you would want to see of the Beatles and their hometown.

A great trip for anyone who has an interest in The Beatles and has read up on them as seeing the places etc makes it more meaningful. Loved it. I would suggest that although the lady who met us at the station was most pleasant and helpful her actual lack of knowledge and experience needs to be addressed, having not been on the trip herself. For my part I would suggest that a person needs to put aside at least 2 to two and half hours for the Beatles experience if not more to throughly appreciate it. Then maybe a suggested plan walk through the cIty with an apprpiate map. This would help reinforce images of the history of The Beatlles enviroment for extra research. Coming from South Africa and doing additional reading on the Beatles it would really assist people really interested in there history. The guides on the bus were really great and knew their stuff. Maybe an extension to where Paul was ACTUALLY born as well, a description of the route taken by bike over the golf course between John and Paul and on my proposed self walk guide in the city one or 2 places the 4 frequented. Great.

Thoroughly enjoyable. We opted for the first class train tickets, which was a wonderful treat. Really treated well, with beverages, full meals and attentive service and wonderfully comfortable seats. The Beatles Story and the Magical Mystery (Bus) Tour were very enjoyable. The town shopping/central district is right between the train station and the docks (where the Beatles Story exhibition is located) is very pleasant and you can walk right past (or right into) the famous Cavern Club, where live music still plays every day.
Very enjoyable. Highly recommended for any level of Beatles fan!

The trip was wonderful and we really enjoyed the Magical Mystery Tour and the museum. It was just enough time to see everything and do everything without being rushed. It's convenient to have everything organized for you, but honestly, it would have been just the same if we had booked it on our own. The lady we met at Euston station didn't arrive until 6:30 and we were a bit nervous since we were told to arrive 10 minutes early and didn't know when the train left, and the map they gave us was worthless--printed off of Google maps or something. There's a coin operated machine in Liverpool Lime Street Station where we picked up a good map for a pound. Since it's a self-guided tour, there's really no point in booking through a tour company--just get the train tickets, tour tickets, and museum tickets on your own.

BR-654504995 - First this booking start was from Euston train station at 650 am, which you needed to be 10-min early. No big deal, I was literally staying 5-10 minutes from the station. However, when I arrived at 0630 - I could not find the person responsible for the tour. Neither could the assistant from the Euston Station ticket booth. No one answered calls to the number on the voucher, and VIATOR does not have ANY immediate contact numbers listed on their website. I had FIRST CLASS SEATS. I WAS IN THE STATION. HOW MESSED UP IS IT THAT I HAD TO WATCH THE TRAIN LEAVE WITHOUT ME? I certainly couldn't afford to purchase train tickets without a tour discount. It would have been so much easier if the ticket vouchers were electronic, but they were not. Unfortunately, I feel that this will also fall on deaf ears. I guess thereis always a glitch occasionally, and I must be it this time.

We took this tour on Saturday July 1st, 2017. Everything went off without a hitch and was very enjoyable. Be aware, however, that you are paying 180.00 per person for what amounts to about 100 worth of tickets. There is no guide - someone meets you at the train station and hands you an envelope with tickets for the train, The Beatles Story and the Cavern Club Bus Tour, all of which are available online separately. Save serious cash by setting this up yourself! You can do it no problem.
