Self Guided Walking Tour of Liverpool Landmarks and Legacy
Overview
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.
