Peaky Beatles Tour (4 hrs)
for fans of flat caps AND Mop Tops!
Did you know that Tommy Shelby grew up virtually next door to Ringo Starr of the Beatles? Or at least in the next street? OK the Shelbys didn't run their illegal betting den the same decade as young Ringo was growing up there but a surprising number of filming locations are close to the obligatory stops on any Beatles pilgrimage. Why not combine them both in this 3 hour tour!
As well as a selection of Peaky filming locations you'll stop for a photo with the famous Penny Lane sign, view the famous red gates of Strawberry Field (no "s" - the song's inspiration is a former Salvation Army Children's Home) and a selection of the Beatles childhood homes and educational establishments.
The tour will usually end at the starting point of the Albert Dock or you can request to be dropped off at Mathew St, home to the world famous Cavern Club, statues of the Fab Four and other sites associated with the Beatles.
