★★★★★★★★★★3.9 · 4 reviews · 1 - 6 hours · from $48

Private local walking tour of Liverpool from Pier Head, covering Albert Dock, Cavern Quarter, St Georges Hall and Sefton Park.

“Die Tour wurde kurzfristig abgesagt... zum zweiten Mal innerhalb von 24 Stunden. Die erste Tour wurde am Morgen des Tages abgesagt, an dem sie nachmittags stattfinden sollte. Daraufhin habe ich dieselbe Tour nochmal für den kommenden Tag am Morgen gebucht. Diese wurde ca. eine Stunde vor Beginn abgesagt. Anscheinend hat die ausführende Agentur der 17jährigen Guide erst am Abend zuvor gegen 23 Uhr Bescheid gegeben, dass sie die Tour machen soll, ohne sich das von ihr auch bestätigen zu lassen. Außerdem hat sie diese Tour wohl auch vorher noch nie gemacht. Schade, aber da muss man sich schon überlegen, ob man hier nochmal was bucht.”
