City Explorer Liverpool
Cut through the crowds and spy some of Liverpool’s best bits from the elevated view of an open-top bus (there’s downstairs seating too for those rainy days). Your tour guide will give you all the insider scoops on the city and talk you through the most iconic attractions.
The best bit? You can customise the tour to suit you. Hop on and off at any of the 14 stops to take a longer look, picking the tour back up whenever you like. Stops include the Cavern Quarter with its Beatles-themed pubs, the historic Albert Docks lined with galleries and bars, and ornate Liverpool Cathedral.
Tours take place all year round - whatever the weather.
