Beatles Tour Liverpool 

DAAAARRRRAAAA!!!! WOW!!!! I am just SO honored and surprised and thrilled to have been included in your video comments today!! Not in a million years did I expect that! Thank you so very, very much. I was, of course, all ready to make numerous happy comments anyway, about how much I enjoyed all the info and sites and sounds of My Beatles Liverpool that you have shared here. I learned so much more about them -- and thought I already knew everything anyway, but no, you added so much to my Beatles Mental Catalog. Plus actually SEEING all these locales made all the difference, bringing it so much more to life for me. Oh, and the ice cream stop was a bonus too; I think you chose the same flavo(u)r that caught my eye too! Yum!! Well, I have rambled on long enough here, so thank you again for this extra, extra special video. And I'm glad you enjoyed my Beatles Library from long ago!! 🥰❤👍🎶📚

We did a fab Beatles tour when we went to Liverpool a few years ago. Roger is a huge Beatles fan, and he was very impressed with the tour. It was like a dream come true to visit all the places the Beatles lived and sang about.

What a great tour to do! Oh i love blue slushies, especially with a shot or two of alcohol in, can’t beat it! Got some great historic photos of them and revealed some great insights! Penny Lane used to be a toll road, well that makes sense! You do suit the John Lennon glasses, were they magenta lenses? Yay Rach and Wills at the Philharmonic, legendary meet up! Very classy loo! Love the conservatory, pity about the wedding on your visit! Lovely story, nice inclusion for Bobby 👍

All very informative - a taste of the summer. I love Sefton Park

Ah Dara, what a fun time we had. I’ve never known Liverpool as hot as it was that day! Thanks for recommending our Beatles locations video. The weather in that video was certainly more Liverpool!!! Cheers 🍻

Beautiful blue tongue Dara! We would have loved to be on this tour with you and Ian. Never knew Paul was rejected for the choir! It would be a wonderful experience to visit the Cavern! We loved both your and Rachel and Wills videos of your meeting. But you do realize people are going to wonder about a lady in the men's room filming urinals. Enjoyed visiting all the Beatles sights. Thanks for bringing us along.

Hi, loved the idea of a bus tour, iv'e never been to Liverpool, maybe should put this in our calendar for this year, 😊

A very enjoyable vlog with lots of interesting fun facts 👏👏💕

Fun Fact: the position of the Beatles arms on the "Help" album, doesn't spell out help in semaphore. they changed it because of aesthetics for the photo. Darren is probable still signing on the dole, hence why he doesn't want filming. lol he said "where did you find this one from" BTW. did you get the "Brahms" and "Liszt" reference? it is rhyming slang for what most people get in a pub.

Great to see your take on the Beatles’ Liverpool attractions

Thanks for taking us on your Beatles tour Dara. Looks like it was warmer than Texas today!

This is fantastic. I'm realizing that for as ridiculously massive of a Beatles fan as I am (Stephen here 👋), I've never saught out any street-level, personal videos like this. SO, seeing these places from that perspective is making it so much more real, as opposed to "mythical."And wow, John really did live in quite a nicer neighborhood! The murals are beautiful!!! As a professional musician, I've got a short list of venues that give me goosebumps, whether I've been to or played them or not. I've not been to the Cavern, but it's at the top of that list of venues. I literally would prefer to sit in there all by myself, with no one performing, and just imagine. Just some local blokes cutting their teeth in the local pub. And then I'd want to break the silence and play there, too. Sefton Park - 🤣. But seriously, all joking aside, the urinals at the Philharmonic Pub are INCREDIBLE!!! What an unusual predicament though, the limitations on cleaning them due to their listing status. Just gorgeous though! I'll probably be watching this more than once. 😊

I went to Liverpool in 2016 and as a huge Beatles fan, to me it was like visiting Mecca! I stayed at the Hard Day's Night Hotel, explored the Albert docks, took the Magical Mystery Tour and had drinks at the Cavern club, it was such a great experience for me, I'd like to go back there one of these days

Like 72. Wow, such cool info about the Beatles and about Liverpool. It is a beautiful city too. A Flock of Seagulls (one of my favourite bands of all time) is also from Liverpool. As well, my favourite Bangles song is called "Going Down to Liverpool".

Wow! Love love the video as we are huge Beatles fans and Liverpool is on our list as well as this bus tour! Thanks for taking us along!! ~Cara 😊

Just by reading the title of your video....I knew this would be a good one!!! 👍🎶👍

Really great video. Would love to go to Liverpool. Hope you had a great time.

Great video and I'm the tour guide on the bus !!

Great tour..if I ever visit Liverpool I will do the same as you!! I visited the Abbey Road, and sone other places in London with Beatles connection....and Liverpool is a must for me as a Beatles fan! Very interesting video, take care!

Oooo OMG WOAHHH😍❤️ This is such a BEAUTIFUL and ATTRACTIVE place🤗💗✨ The Different Sceneries, Sites and Views Are DROP DEAD GORGEOUS💚🌳✨ I wanna Visit this place🥰💕 Thank Youuuu sooo Muchhh For the Lovely Tour🧡🙌 This was such an Enjoyable And Fun Video To Watch😊💛✨ Simply LOVE it💖 Keep On Going Beautiful💙🧿✨

When I saw the title there was this 🎶"Roll up, Roll up 🎶for the mystery tour🎶" thing running through my brain. It is still there Dara 🤣! This was so enjoyable and brought back memories and tunes. I smiled all the way through the video. Too may highlights to pick one. I'm a lemon ice cream fan myself though a salter caramel goes down well too. It was a hot summer. Let's hope we have a decent one again this year. You must have some plans being formed for your next UK adventure? Thank you Dara and Ian. This was another blast. 💖🙏🇳🇿🙋‍♀🇳🇱

This looks like such a fun tour - we do love The Philharmonic Pub too, always makes me think how much detail went into everything back then, it's really worth visiting! Thanks so much for sharing this.x

..very cool tour from the start to the end...👏👏👏👏

Great video and by the way I'm the tour guide on the bus !!!

The Cavern Club was so much smaller than you expect it to be. A very cool place to visit and listen to Beatles tribute bands.

Those hop on hop off buses are quite amazing. Every big city has them and they really are convenient. Funny slush puppy picture by the way, although I would have expected a magenta colour instead of blue. 😉 Very interesting tour and information about this great band. Their music is timeless. Those are beautiful mural paintings along the way.

Great stuff Dara Always loved the Beatles from when I was a kid Our friends live just outside the city and so we’ve had a couple of great tours of everything there. You visited the best places especially the Philarmonic loos😃. They really are amazing!! And the Beatles history you shared is really cool along with the photos and music clips. Top stuff Hope you guys are doing well 👍👍🤣

Another great vlog of Liverpool

Excellent vid, you certainly showed off the city in a great light. And boy did those wall to wall blue skies (for a change) help 🙂 I've frequented all those places numerous times, though I've never done the tour. I was never fussed on the Beatles 😱 I particularly loved the 'Sevvy Park' section, great ariel coverage BTW. As Liverpool's biggest park I think it hold a special place in most Liverpudlians hearts, and can't imagine any scousers who've not been at some time or other. For my part, I've played there as a kid. Used to go fishing in the big lake. Went to concerts there, and on one particularly cold winter, played ice hockey (of a sorts) with a stick and an old tin can 😀 I'm so glad you and yours enjoyed your time here.

Happy Friday, Dara. It embarrassed to say that I had to take every single word to learn about connections between Liverpool and Beatles. Yes, I have heard about them, listened to their songs, and seen photos/posters. Unfortunately, my parents have never got into their concerts, nor haven't I, except John Lenon and Yoko Ono. The most of information you talked about is fresh to me and fascinates me. Yes, Rachel and Wills are great YT ber as you are. Hmmm stinky mens' room...I can take a cup of ice cream! Thank you, Dara.

This looked like a great day out, despite the heat! I've got friends who have just returned from being in the UK since the beginning of December. They also did the Liverpool and Beatles pilgrimage and let's just say their photos were a lot greyer!

Liverpool is one of the many British cities I've never been to despite living all my life here. Never been to Newcastle or Durham and only visited Manchester and Leeds in the last two years and only spent part of a day in each! I've fancied visiting Liverpool for a while though and this video has confirmed me in that intention. Really want to see the Beatles locations and see the city itself so we'll visit this summer I think. If anyone hasn't seen that Paul McCartney carpool karaoke video it's a must see, one that I regularly rewatch.

Cool glasses! And magenta cookie, yay!

the pub on hope street is where the beer and music make things happen. We would probably get on one of those hop on hop off buses even though it looks like a great day for a stroll

There's an Airbnb ad on the telly now with the Yellow Submarine song. It's driving me nuts! (I listened to it too often when I was young).

Postcard and a Pint!!! 🍻

My first ever 45rpm single was *She Loves You* by The Beatles, costing 6s 8d from our local gramophone record shop. Thanks for the Beatles tour - fascinating!

I live in Blackpool (Not far from Liverpool) And I went here with my mum to the Beatles Museum and the Cavern! We both love listening to the Beatles, Even from where we live, Blackpool (Which is known for its tourists, theatres, sandy beaches, etc) John Lennon would come here 3x a week just to see the plays and would come here with his mother Heck, even during their Blackpool tour in August 1st, 1965 (Which, fun fact, was their tour BEFORE the 1965 Shea stadium tour in August the 15th), Blackpudlians were the first people to hear their new album "Help!" and even the song "Yesterday", before it became worldwide even at 5:13, below the USA flag image, that picture was taken at the Wintergardens theater in Blackpool in 1964

Took me a few days to get round to watching it but that was a great tour of Liverpool

Very best channel on YT❤

I saw that episode of Car Ride Karaoke - so good and so touching

Hey from a scouser I hope you enjoyed your visit 👍

Yay! It's not a super bold opinion or anything, but the Beatles really ARE #1. Knew you'd be all over that George cookie! We wish WE could do carpool karaoke with Paul. That Corden has all the luck. Yeah, this was a fantastic tour and who better to take us around Liverpool? Oh, and secret confession -- those Liverpoolian(?) accents are some of the best accents on the planet. Hope all is well with ya -- sorry we've been a bit MIA in the comments department of late! But we still love ya, even if we're not always verbose about it 😁

11:26 Every excuse is good for Ian to get ice cream......🍦😂🍦😂

According to another video I have seen The Cavern Club was reconstructed. The fire exit, next to the Cilla Black statue, is the location of the original entrance, according to Wikipedia anyway.

Did I hear you right Dara “Sevvy Park” ???? 😀👍👍👍 a Honorary scouser award earned just then , nice vid and fun fact Ringo’s past me once as I played outside my aunties home he was visiting a relative in the same street very early 70’s I think , great vids on Liverpool you done us proud thank you 👍

Hello Dara and Ian. Another great video. In the Philharmonic Pub you showed that they had two rooms called Brahms and Liszt. I am not sure how much Cockney Rhyming Slang you understand, “Brahms and Liszt” is rhyming slang for ****** (drunk). Your a lady, I will understand if you don’t know ******!!!! Here in the UK we call “Bunking Off School” as Skiving or Mitching

we spent 4 nights in Liverpool, in May 2016, but we took the taxi tour with a much more personal guide, very much reccommend.

Definitely never trust a gull! Great Beatles history!

I was born in the mid 60's, but I've always been more of a fan of John, Paul, George and Ringo's solo music rather than The Beatles. I will watch the Postcard and a Pint vlog (and press the like and subscribe button of course), I'm always looking for more travel videos to watch. It sounds like you all had an interesting time.

Great Beatles tour tho I wasn't too interested in the Beatles part but you visiting some of my old students haunts where I would hang out for happy hour etc straight after lectures. Went in the Cavern Club a few times but was a regular supping beer in the Philharmonic pub. It's not changed at all since I was there. in recent times I have competed, in the loosest sense of the word, in cross country running races around the rather large Sefton Park. The race had runners who competed for Great Britain so I was a little way behind them 🤭

Haha, loved the scouse accent. Did you attempt it, Dara? Ooh, very posh gentlemen's loos! Glad I don't have smellavision!

Lol the blue tongue! I don't know how it's there but for some reason when I was in france I noticed the seagulls are quite big there in comparison to Canada. It really took me back like they were double the size.

I have the same picture in strawberry field!! Did you make out Sir PMc signature?

Not a great Beatles fan but Sefton, to me, means the wonderful, brave horse who suffer horrendous injuries in the Hyde Park bombing. He was nursed back to health and made many public appearances.

Earliest live recording of a Beatles concert discovered after 60 years. Stowe schoolboy John Bloomfield recorded it on a reel-to-reel tape recorder.

weird details: the area north of liverpool is called Sefton, but sefton park, is south of the city centre. The palm house is almost always closed for a wedding since it's a large part of how the park makes money. But on the day's its reserved for public viewing it's pretty nice. Banana flavouring in dairy products is extremely popular in the uk, i cannot explain that one but you might have noticed.

BBC chappie said he was talking to a 19 year old volunteer who's going to be at Eurovision in Liverpool this year. He said that neither her or her mum had ever heard of the Beatles. 😲

@MagentaOtterTravels I can't find the post where you8 mention her so this music post is the next best thing. 😁 Cyndi Lauper will be appearing at Glastonbury this June. Just wondering if you've bought your tickets yet? 😁😁

Hello Dara, my beatles history is sparce been too young when they were at their best. Did enjoy George Harrisons later music sometimes l don't think he got the credit he deserved. My older brother enjoyed them but unfortunately he died at 14 year old and his small record collection disappeared. I did find it when my mother died 40 years later, my younger brother had got into them so l gave them to him, they now take pride of place in his vast music collection. On one visit to Liverpool we went to the Albert Dock for a meal and the Boot leg beatles were playing and were very good. Did enjoy your Carvern trip but you didn't mention Cilla Black who was discovered there by the Beatles and Brian Empstien and was for decades an important part of culture in Liverpool.

That was very cool. Fab even. I love a bit of music history and trivia. Funnily enough I would never have called my self a big Beatles fan but I have all the Albums - love Sgt Peppers and the White Albums. And I love Paul McCartney and Wings and a load of Lennon's stuff. So I might like the Beatles a bit I suspect. 😂 I was listening to Sir Paul's latest album from a couple of years ago and it is really good. If it was really Paul. Everybody knows Paul is dead. He died back in 1966. Google it, it's true. 😂He has been quite prolific for a dead guy. Makes that John Lennon bloke a bit of a slacker. He hasn't had a new album in decades. One of my earliest TV memories was the Beatles. Their famous last rooftop concert. We got a TV in about 1969 and it was one of the first thing I remember seeing. That and a very vague recollection of the moon landing. And Rin Tin Tin. Loved that dog. Actually I just remembered my mum's best friend saw the Beatles when they visited Melbourne in 1964. Apparently it was quite hysterical. I've seen the concert footage and you can barely hear the Beatles. My mum was pregnant with me so I was sort of kind of in the country at the same time as the Beatles. Sort of. 😂 Otherwise the closest I've come to seeing the Beatles is seeing the Beatnix perform at a pub I worked at in the 80's. The Beatnix are the oldest Beatles tribute band in the world and have been going since 1980. Fascinating eh. 😂 Very cool seeing Rachel and Wills in the video. Actually we only saw Rach sitting awkwardly in the back of your uber. I'm assuming Wills was underneath there somewhere. 😂 Those urINals reminded me of the ones we have in a lot of old pubs here too. Old railway stations and public facilities will have them as well. I love a bit of toilet history and trivia. Good on you for having ice cream too. Nobody ever started fight having ice cream. But then I read there was something called the Glasgow Ice Cream Wars. Sigh. 😁🍦🍦🍦 This was a terrific video. Excuse my waffling on... mmm waffle cone... gotta go, pretty sure I have some ice cream in the freezer. PS was listening to Sir Paul while writing this. Ooh, Roxy Music and Bryan Ferry's Jealous Guy from 1981 just came on. Best cover ever. Interestingly Roxy Music's Avalon was the first CD I every heard in 1982. The local record shop got a CD player and bunch of CDs when they first came out. But I don't think I got a CD player till about 1990. The first CDs I bought were Midnight Oil and I think Hotel California by The Eagles. I don't think I bought another vinyl record after that. I think I'll skip the ice cream and go to bed. 😴😂

I was going to ask you if you've ever been on a bus. Spooky! 😲

We now need a visit to Lubbock and the grassy knoll please..

Do they serve any special "Beatles" dishes at the café?

It's funny how the Penny Lane Road sign was just painted onto one of the sand stone bricks in the wall. People have been writing on it for years. The council would come out and refresh it back to a white road sign and people would just sign it again. Then one day, Macca comes back to Liverpool, with James Cordin on his show (IIRC) and he signs his name on it. Suddenly the council slap a sheet of perspex over it! ps, you can't pinch a whole sandstone brick from a wall, that's why the council decided to make the brick a road sign as the original was always being nicked!

Could you imagine being at the Philharmonic when Paul showed up?? Oh my goodness. That's a highlight place I'd love to visit. What a wonderful tour! Thanks for this Dara!

Blue slush puppy, must be similar to Route Beer…

Sheldon type Fun Fact: Ringo narrated the TV series Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends. A children's series about a railway where the engines, carriages and trucks can talk. Story example: Henry, the green engine, wouldn't come out of a tunnel in case his paint got spoiled by the rain. The Fat Controller was so angry he had Henry bricked up in the tunnel.

0:49 Ian's special friend followed you from Cornwall to Liverpool??? 😱😱😱

Hiya Dara, My Dad and Auntie Margaret went to see The Beatles in October 1963 in Carlisle, Dad said "you couldn't here the music for screaming girls", I seen where John Lennon was shot before I seen where he was born I went to New York in October 2005,I bought Sgt Pepper T shirt at the Beatles shop on Mathew Street, Liverpool, John's mam (Julia) who Julian is named after was tradgically killed by an off duty drunken driver police officer, that's when his Aunt Mimi adopted him, I enjoyed this vlog about Liverpool and The Beatles,I also went to Elleanore Rigby's resting place, this is Choppy in Whitehaven, Cumberland, England

Are you sure they are doing breakdance? It seems to me like they try to practise Capoeira

Who would’ve guessed you were such a feisty lady,men’s toilets?ooohh madam! But seriously it looked a good day out.❤

DARA!!! What are you doing in the men's toilets??? 😂😂😂 But anyway, they are very beautiful. Even those rooms can be extravagant.

I'm sad there wasn't much about George Harrison. He was so talented and very underrated.

The boy pictured on the left at 12.57 is NOT John Lennon.

Did the tour guide mention that it wasn't the original Cavern? (The Animals were a far, far superior pop group btw). 😎The songs from The Animals make me cry, especially When I was Young. None of the Beatles songs do that.

Original cavern club was demolished

and the lucky people getting married didnt have the signs in the toilet area i bet haha

So, you got a ticket to ride

Umm. Let's see. What do I know about the Beatles? 1) They were going to spell it Beetles, as in the insect. 2) Ringo was not even the best drummer in the Beatles. 3) An early member of the group couldn't play guitar, so always stood with his back to the audience. 4) Elvis hated them. 5) The original Cavern Club was demolished to make way for a ventilator shaft for a railway extension that was never built. 5) Brian Epstein was a cheapskate that put them on a low cost airline where one of the engines caught fire. 6) You could say that Linda McCartney invented modern vegetarianism with her food range. 7) (And I think this is exciting). My sister has some of the original Beatles magazines from the early 60s. They must be worth a fortune now. 😁

That doesn't look like breakdancing. More like gymnastics and martial arts

Dear Otter, How to Reach you for a business inquiry? kindly provide any social media links or email address.

Great video and I'm the tour guide on the bus !!
