Was ok. One couple on out tour monopolized the guide. They were making plans to meet in Australia sometime. Very distracting. Way too many people in car(6). Didn’t go to the Cavern or the Casbah.
The fact that our cruise ship was unable to dock in Liverpool because of bad weather and La Vacanza Travel refused to refund our fees. I’m out $180 USD
Seeing all the homes that the 4 Beatles had lived in. Penny Lane and Strawberry Fields were a highlight also. The guide was very informative and showed us the highlights of Liverpool also. The Rolls Royce vehicle was comfortable and in itself an icon. Very interesting hearing all the stories of the background of each member.
We were on a cruise that went to Liverpool for one day. I booked this tour more than a year beforehand and was so excited after reading all of the great reviews. I checked and double checked all of our information before leaving hime, printing out instructions on where to meet etc. knowing I had no internet while on the ship to get information. On the day of our booked tour, we arrived at the designed spot (last contact from company was in July confirming meet up spot) We arrived about 45 minutes early and asked people on the street and other tour operators if in fact we were in the correct spot, all saying yes, this is where he picks people up, we see him all the time. At 10 minutes past the meeting time, and no you’re in sight, I stopped three different people and ask them to phone the phone number provided on the email. The number was not in service. At 20 minutes past the meeting time, I went to a nearby shop to use their wifi and found an email from Robbie, stating we cannot wait for you. Wait!!! What??!!?? We are right where we are supposed to be! He says he sent me an email yesterday to tell me the meeting point changed. I am on a ship, with NO internet!!!!!!! Emailing me 24 hours beforehand is irresponsible in my view, particularly when a meeting point is well established and confirmed. Furthermore, he knew we were most likely at the old spot, so drove past to see! I find this company irresponsible and not trustworthy. Robbie has denied my claim to a refund based on what I would call misinformation. He offered me another tour, but we are back home and no immediate plans to return to Liverpool. So very disappointing. I will not ever recommend this tour to anyone.
This tour was amazing and the tour guide was really good with information!! Was good to have a laugh with the driver and saw so many places related to the Beatles. Would 100% do this again!! We went to all different places to do with the Beatles and was good to learn new facts
