How to Plan for a Trip to Liverpool
- 1). Book your Beatles tours on the Internet. There are many, and you want to find the right one that fits your time frame and interest. Some, like the Magical Mystery Tour, are less than two hours long. They run from the Albert Dock. The "ticket to ride" is a reasonable cost. The tour concludes at the famed Cavern Club on Mathews Street. These tours sell out quickly, so it's best to book in advance.
- 2). Book the tours of Paul McCartney and John Lennon's childhood homes yourself online to save money. Tours depart from Liverpool City Center several times a day, depending on the time of year. The childhood homes are now the property of the National Trust and are quite popular, so it's best to book in advance.
- 3). Buy tickets to the Beatles Story Museum. The museum is open seven days a week and has two locations. The original location is at Albert Dock. Once you have finished there, a shuttle bus takes you to the second location, Beatles Story Pier Head at the Mersey Ferry Terminal.
