We took a private tour choosing our own itinerary as I had been to Liverpool multiple times before and wanted to go to some sites not typically on a tour.
I had family visiting from abroad and wanted them to experience a Beatles taxi tour.
Our guide STEVE picked us up at our hotel promptly at 9am and drove us to the bus pick up for the National Trust Tours of John Lennon and Paul McCartney's homes. After finishing the tour at Paul's home, Steve was right there waiting for us to continue with him on our own. Since l am a huge Beatles fan, Steve and I had a great time quizzing each other on Beatles facts and he surprised us by taking us to a few places not normally visited like Julia's gravesite and Georges boyhood home in Speke. We got inside of the St.
Peters Church Hall where John and Paul met for the first time and got to meet Colin Hanton from the original Quarrymen! I had been to Strawberry Fields Gate before but this time got inside Strawberry Fields, which was a treat.
Of course, Penny Lane and The Roundabout were on the list as it was my friends first time in LIverpool. Steve stopped at the Penny Lane sign which Paul signed when doing the James Corden Carpool karaoke show, so that was a real treat for us all.
Steve really took care of us and we had a glorious day.
This is the 2nd time we’ve done a Beatles tour in Liverpool and highly recommend Beatles city taxi tours and if you use Steve as your driver, you will be lucky!!!
