Activity itinerary

Hope Street
  • 20m
At each end of Hope Street you will be able to see both of Liverpool's famous Cathedrals. We will pause briefly to see St James's Cemetery while you hear about its history. Then we will have a stroll along Hope Street learning about the residents of the past with plenty of photo opportunities as we go. You'll never guess which house it was where the cellar was used by grave robbers. See the famous Philharmonic Pub where the Beatles played in their early days as well as Paul and George's old school.
Rodney Street
  • 10m
Travelling back in time, this street has been used in films such as Peaky Blinders and Sherlock Holmes amongst others. It is one of the few streets that the Georgian and Victorian residents would still recognise today. It's also the location of Liverpool's pyramid tomb.
Bombed Out Church
  • 10m
We next head down Hardman Street towards Liverpool City Centre, passing St Luke's Church (known locally as the bombed out church) that suffered extensive damage during the Second World War and remains today as a monument for the people of Liverpool who lost their lives during the conflict. Within the grounds of the church are monuments to the Christmas ceasefire of WWI and the Irish famine.
Bold Street
  • 15m
We'll pass through one of the main shopping, cafe and bistro areas of Liverpool before walking down Church Street. The site of St Peter's Church, built in 1700 and was Liverpool's Pro-cathedral until 1926, is marked by a brass cross inlaid into the pavement. Travelling along Whitechapel we will be able to see the place where Brian Epstein had his music shop and office before heading towards the famous Mathew Street.
Mathew Street

For Beatles Fans, this is where it all began. We will pass the Cavern Club, see the Eleanor Rigby Statue for a photo opportunity and perhaps buy the odd souvenir at the tourist shop.
Dale Street
  • 10m
It's a short walk to Dale Street where you will be able to see (and perhaps enjoy a drink) at Liverpool's oldest public house build in 1726 before we head towards the Georgian Town Hall - one of the finest buildings in the city with a fascinating history built in 1754.
Castle Street
  • 5m
Moving along Castle Street we head towards the place where Liverpool Castle once stood and is now occupied by the Victoria Monument in honour of Queen Victoria. Learn about the siege of Liverpool during the English Civil War and what was found when excavating to build the Law Courts that are now on part of the site.
James Street
  • 10m
We head down James Street and pass the offices of the White Star Line and owners of the Titanic before moving to the pier head to see the famous Liver Buildings, Cunard Buildings and the Port of Liverpool building.

Albert Dock
  • 15m
The Albert Dock, Victorian warehouses and once the secret navy base for the war in the North Atlantic is now a major tourist hub in Liverpool.
