the way concert venues have been recently I should think so Jillian - would only suggest a pocket size camera though - nothing too big as for the meet up - more the merrier again there are several people from this board still looking for tickets - I'm trying for them as they asked first (sorry :() but if I know of others I will let you know ok

being totally honest Heidi I have NEVER seen that bus in Liddypool just looked at were the bus stops and they go nowhere near any of the beatles places so to me not worth the money at all - might as well get a saveaway and a beatles map of public transport it would save you LOADS more moneyI'd check availabilty of the PM suite - bet it is gone already I just think its very expensive for the location :hmm: |

I have seen that bus lots of times, it does exist. Looking at the Website, they’re not actually advertising it as a Beatles tour; they are just advertising it as a Liverpool tour. They say Liverpool, home of The Beatles, that’s just the same as me saying I live in Liverpool, home of The Beatles. I don’t know whether it’s worth it, but the ticket is valid for 24 hours and you do get a running commentary, I know it says it’s recorded but I’ve often seen someone at the front of the bus with a mike. |

Ok - found this online (at last) Beatles Tour - by bus you will need to print this off - but it gives you the bus routes around Liddypool to go to the sites unless you have me/Colin or George as a guide lol

I WISH I could have you two as guides...but I realize you're busy! It will be great just to be able to hang out with everyone at a pub! Thanks for that great map of Beatles attractions. Like Colin said, the big tour bus takes you all around areas of Liverpool, not just the Beatles places. Here's the route: 1. Canada Boulevard (Mersey Ferries) 2. Chapel St (Western Approaches) 3. Dale St (hop off stop only) 4. James Street Station 5. Victoria Street (The Cavern) 6. William Brown Street (Museums and Galleries) 7. Mount Pleasant (Metropolitan Cathedral) 8. Hope Street (Everyman Theater and Philharmonic Dining Rooms) 9. Upper Duke Street (Anglican Cathedral) 10. Great George Street (Chinatown) 11. Gower Street (Albert Dock) I don't know if any of these places are on that Beatles map... |

The Liverpool City Hop on Hop Off Bus tour is about $22 per person for a 24 hour pass. This is a tour of the city. The "Saveaway" tickets are about $5 for one day; that's the one that stops at the Beatles attractions, according to the map that Jayne provided. |

Thanks.
Are you going to do either of these tours, or haven't made up your mind yet? I have no idea what to do, I'm kinda just going to tag along with what everyone else does...I already booked the tixs for the tour of the childhood homes with Jayne. |

I haven't made up my mind yet. I for sure am doing the MMT (yellow van to the 2 homes); right now it's scheduled for May 30th but I'm trying to change it.... |

I haven't got the tixs for MMT, I'm going to wait and see when everyone else is going, and try and get on their tour. But I definitely want to do that. And of course the Beatles Story, that's a no brainer... |

Just to clarify, the 'Saveaway' tickets are for use of Liverpool Public Transport - you'd have to find your own way to the attractions.
|
| ...and in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make. | |

The MMT is a big yellow bus that takes you to and past many Beatle attractions but you do not get to go inside any of them on this tour. The tour that allows you into the childhood homes is the National Trust Tour. |

I've booked the National Trust Tour to Forthlin Road and Mendips, as well as the MMT. I've been to the Beatles Story several times and unless there is something new, I won't be going there. |

Andy I posted a link to say were all the public buses go in the city (Beatles related) If you ask the driver nicely when you get on they will tell you the exact stop to get off on all of them are VERY near bus stops |

The tour guides in Liverpool are so knowledgeable that I prefer the tours. Besides, you can't get in the houses without taking a tour. |
