Booked for April 2020 but was cancelled due to Covid and wouldn’t refund money,issued voucher to use in 2021.Now informed that they won’t honour existing booking as they’ve put price up by £150 ???????? so have refunded original money.Have kept my money for over a year to help their business survive but now increased the price by about 80% and don’t want to look after existing bookings.Shocking way for a company to act so avoid them at all cost.Contact Liverpool taxi drivers via social media who will look after you at a fraction of the cost with a professional service. Brit Movie Tours are greedy and unprofessional !!!

It was my first trip to Lake Districts and I absolutely loved it. Gerry is very friendly, kind and knowledgeable person. He knows Lake District like the back of his hand. Although it wasn't the best weather to see the lakes but he made sure that we visit as much as we could. It's still wonderful no matter how the weather was like. I will definitely come back one day. Would rate it 6 stars if I can :)

With so much of England flooded and the wind from storm Jorge doing its best to spoil our trip, this was a perfect way to enjoy the scenery without being drown, frozen or exhausted. Carl (our driver/guide) was fun, informative and helpful, making the trip work for everyone Many thanks !

This full-day guided Beatles experience starts with a shared 2 hour walking tour in small groups with a Beatles expert then a private luxury transport tour which is the most comprehensive & best value tour in Liverpool. With 5 star reviews this superb guided day out is the best way to learn how & why Liverpool has changed in the footsteps of the Fab4.

After lunch you travel in luxury transport to Penny lane, Strawberry Field & see outside the childhood homes of John Lennon, Paul McCartney & Ringo Starr. This tour has something for everyone you will see the schools & colleges the boys attended & outside the World's fifth largest cathedral. * (The 9am tour does the car tour first)

This luxury tour is brilliant for a group of friends, a corporate group or as a shore excursion for anyone who loves The Beatles and was inspired by the Carpool karaoke programme in 2018 shown on the James Corden programme the Late Show. Sing along as you are guided in luxury transport for up to 6 guests with hand held microphones as you sing along Karaoke style with your guide. Enjoy strawberrys at Strawberry Fields, see Paul's former schools, outside his childhood home and you'll receive a souvenir key ring along Penny Lane where he signed the famous road sign. This is a top end luxury product, in a fully licensed vehicle with a qualified fun tour guide and Beatles expert. There are other Beatles tours but there's no other Carpool Karaoke tour and this is easily the most fun and your guide will suggest lots of other Beatles themed things you can do during your visit to Liverpool.

Inclusions: Air-conditioned vehicle, Live Guide who will sing along - Carpool Karaoke Style

Exclusions: Gratuities, Food, drinks or refreshments , We do not always visit inside the Cavern Club as there is an entrance charge after 12:00

17/09/2020 - Our adventure was absolutely brilliant! Frank our driver was the best! His knowledge of North Wales is outstanding. He kept us all entertained throughout the trip, he’s such a friendly guy with a fantastic personality! This trip is definitely worth another go just to take in all the scenery, idyllic places, history, shops & cafes. Will be booking another trip with Frank in the very near future. 10/10

This tour was fantastic from the second we’d booked it!! The communication from Ian was quick and efficient, much helped by the fact that he does all the organising/booking/tours himself so he knows exactly what he’s doing. The tour itself was just so informative, I cannot believe that one person can remember that many facts and dates, Ians knowledge verges on encyclopaedic! I won’t say too much about the places that you visit as you need to book and see for yourselves. What I will say though is that is was fun, informative, good value for money, breathtaking and that chances are we will return to Liverpool with family next year and do this tour again, hopefully the weather will be better next time, but even that wasn’t enough to dampen our spirits. Thank you Ian, it was a real pleasure to meet you!
