Fran was excellent

Fran was excellent! What a wonderful secret stroll in Liverpool. A big group of us were taken around the city on a Saturday morning. It was wet and windy but the weather didn’t dampen our spirits and Fran certainly kept the group going with all her amazing facts (how do you remember it all) It was a pleasure to learn so much more about Liverpool. It was an interesting and fascinating couple of hours walking around listening to Fran’s facts and insights. Fran looked after everyone, making sure everyone kept up and was included. The tour was excellent value for money and a must do tour for those wishing to know a bit more about the city, visitors and residents alike. I will be telling all my family and friends to book a tour with Fran as it was such an interesting and enjoyable event.

Fran was amazing! This tour is a must!

Fran was amazing! What a wonderful secret stroll around the city centre of Liverpool. 16 of us were taken around the city of a wet and windy Saturday morning, but there was nothing dismal about our tour. Fran brought to life the growth of the city from the opening of the first dry dock in the world, we heard facts about the 3 Graces and took in Matthew Street and the Fab Four. Having lived in the city all my life (over 60 years) I thought I knew a fair bit about its history, however, it was a pleasure to learn so much more. It was an interesting and fascinating couple of hours strolling around listening to Fran’s knowledge. Fran looked after us, making sure everyone was keeping up. The tour was excellent value for money and a must do tour for those wishing to know a bit more about the city, visitors and residents alike. I will be telling all my friends to book a tour with Fran as it was such an interesting and enjoyable event.

Fabulous City walk…

Such an interesting tour jam-packed with fascinating information, delivered in a relaxed style with no rush. Lived here for nearly 80 years yet Fran managed to tell us lots of things about our own City that we didn't know.
Well thought out "Comfort Stops" (important at our age!)
Well done, Fran. Your tour is an absolute "must" for natives and tourists alike.

Liverpools firsts!

Had a wonderfully interesting walking tour around Liverpool, discovering all the great 'firsts' for Liverpool around the city, taking in all the history, architecture and culture over the centuries. Fran was amazing in keeping it all so interesting and surprising me with so many facts and fun information. Looking at the city in a different way from now on! Well done Fran and thank you so much.

wonderful tour around Liverpool…

Had a wonderful tour around Liverpool city centre today, thanks to Fran, very knowledgeable guide who provided so much history, facts and figures to embellish our tour. Who knew the river Mersey used to flow almost to John Lewis’s front door? Lovely to meet Bella and Bertie, Liverpool’s iconic Liverpool birds, marvel at the three Graces; port of Liverpool, Cunard and liver Buildings. So much information about Churches, Cathedrals, Chinatown to take in. Loved visiting Mathew Street the birth place of the Cavern. Cilla had us singing “Step Inside” one of the many songs as a group we couldn’t resist. Ending the tour after a visit to the town hall, exchange flags, St John’s gardens, St George’s hall and the beautiful buildings on William Brown St left me hungry to visit this beautiful City very soon. Thank you Fran, you were spot on, how you retain all that information and keep it interesting for your group was wonderful. Wishing you much success in your new venture.

Jampacked with interest!

This was such an interesting walking tour, around and then from the Liverpool Anglican Cathedral down to the riverside, along the river frontage to historic civic buildings, up to the Town Hall and over to Mathew Street. Lots of history I knew nothing about and my guests from the US found fascinating. Fran is the perfect guide, full of all sorts of information, stories and human interest.

Excellent for both tourists and Liverpool residents.

Fran gave us a very informative tour of Liverpool one and the docks area. I have lived in Liverpool for nearly 10 years and I learnt so much that I didn't know.
I couldn't recommend the Liverpool Storyteller enough, it was excellent and I plan to do another of her tours soon.

The Liverpool Storyteller

What a fantastic way to explore the city of Liverpool! Fran was so friendly, hugely knowledgeable and engaging (especially with two teenagers!) and we spent an amazing couple of hours wandering the city and learning about the history of some of Liverpool’s most iconic buildings. Thank you Fran - your guide was the start of an amazing weekend in Liverpool! 100% recommend The Liverpool Storyteller.

Thank you for taking the time to share such kind feedback and for the recommendation. I’m so pleased you found the tour engaging and that it helped bring Liverpool’s history to life for the whole family. Hearing that the tour kicked off an amazing time in Liverpool it wonderful to read. I hope Liverpool invites you back again before too long; there’s always something new to discover.
