All hotels in Liverpool have a minimum two night stay policy. We have negotiated a deal in a traditional pub, 10 mins from the city centre.

City tours with Jim

Who is Jim?

Club taxi driver and long time friend of the Dutch Branch, he is a very funny scouser.His knowledge of the city and history of Liverpool makes a tour with him essential. Jim definitely reaches the parts other tours don't. He can make a tour to your specifications. Visit Penny Lane, Strawberry Fields, the houses John, Paul, George and Ringo grew up in, the cavern club and some of the pubs the Fab Four used to play in. See the church Hall where Paul and John first met. The verger, Graham Paisley, will show you around the churchyard where Eleanor Rigby is buried. He will also show you the grave of the great Bob Paisley, his father. This Beatles tour is the best available and is cheaper than the bus.

If architecture is your thing, Jim will show you round Liverpool's magnificent past and glorious present. The most listed buildings outside London, more georgian buildings than Bath, the biggest cathedral in Britain, the only street in the world with a cathedral at either end, the fabulous three graces on Liverpool's waterfront, itself a World Heriage site.

If you want the Jim experience email us and we'll put you in touch.
