Liverpool - The Beatles Story
Liverpool’s city centre and docklands have been recognised by UNESCO for their role in developing one of the world’s major trading centres of the 18th and 19th century. The city’s trading heritage is just one of the things which will influence our tour of Liverpool today. We’ll start with a guided tour of St George’s Hall, a fine neo-classical building decorated with inspiring figures, a priceless 30,000-piece mosaic and a concert organ with 7,000 pipes. We also view the striking Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral and Royal Liver Building. Reaching 98m tall on completion in 1911, it was considered Britain’s first skyscraper. The Beatles Story is another city highlight today. The exhibition takes you back to the 1960s with replicas of the Casbah Coffee Club and The Cavern Club, and leads you through the story of The Beatles and their solo careers.

Port Sunlight
Port Sunlight Village was built in the late 19th century by William Hesketh to house his soap factory workers. With a passion for art and architecture, he created a village of enviable homes, many now Grade II listed, and mature parkland which has been beautifully maintained. We take a guided tour of the village and the museum, which holds the memories of the villagers and workers of Port Sunlight during the late 1800s and early 1900s, before returning to Liverpool to enjoy the rest of the day at leisure.
-
Speke Hall and Gardens
Today’s excursion takes us to Speke Hall, a beautiful timber-framed manor house restored with the aesthetics of Victorian Arts and Crafts. Built in the Tudor period, when a secret priest hole was an essential feature of a devout Catholic home, it has survived for over 420 years, including a short spell when it was used as a cow shed. The Victorian gardens have also benefited from restoration, with a lovely kitchen garden and rose garden to enjoy today.
