Casbah Coffee Club

The Holy Grail of The Beatles trail. The place where it truly all began for the greatest music phenomenon of the 20th century.

Reviewed By PaulaH422 - Buckingham, United States

It was a surreal, amazing experience standing in the place where the Beatles really began. To walk into the untouched Casbah felt as if we walked back in time, and we could have spent hours there just staring at the pictures and other memorabilia. The highlight for us was when our guide brought us there, and the door was opened by none other than Roag Best!!! He was our guide for the hour tour of the Casbah, and so we ended the day on an absolute high note! By the way, we were able to visit the Casbah through the Fab Four Taxi Tour; we booked the 3-hour Macca tour with the added visit to the Casbah at the end. The day was truly a fantastic day!

Williamson’s Tunnels – Friends of Williamson’s Tunnels

The Friends of Williamson's Tunnels are the custodians of two fascinating sections of Williamson’s Tunnels not open daily to the Public. The first, is Paddington, which is formed of multiple and impressive brick arched chambers. These chambers include the cathedral like Level 4, 60ft below street level, located on ‘Paddington’, Edge Hill, L7 3RG. Visits to Paddington are available free of charge. Our second site is Joseph Williamson’s House, we are currently working hard to uncover the hidden history of Joseph's House and its subterranean chambers beneath - Wine Bins, Sandstone Arch, Gash and the famous Banqueting Hall. We have recently uncovered Joseph’s Kitchen, complete with 4 large fireplaces & cooking Ranges. Williamson’s House is on Mason Street, Edge Hill L7 3EW. Extended visits to Joseph’s house are members only. All Visits can be arranged directly from our web site, e-mail or telephone. All visits must be booked in advance and are Free of charge, though we welcome donations

We have visited today. Lovely welcome from Lynn who booked us on and a great tour with Mike.hr was very knowledgeable about it, we found it very fascinating and he was great keeping the children engaged as well, We have loved being moles for the day, and a lovely touch that the children got a certificate and badge at the end too. I hope to revisit when you've unearthed some more hidden tunnels....

Sudley House

Sudley House has been described as a hidden gem. Tucked away in Liverpool's leafy suburbs, Sudley is the only house of a Victorian merchant that still has its original pictures, including works by Millais, Turner and Rossetti. With beautiful period furniture, carpets and wallpaper it doesn't feel like a regular gallery, more a period home that you've been given the keys to. Admission is free, booking essential at www.liverpoolmuseums.org.uk/sudleyhouse

In all the years we've been coming to the great city of Liverpool we had never visited this glorious house and gallery. Sublime paintings, fabulous interiors, and amazing views to the Welsh hills from the rear terrace and gardens. Cannot recommend a visit enough. Staff are absolutely WONDERFUL, knowledgeable and friendly. A great afternoon out.
