When pineapples were worth twice twice their weight in gold!

Gary was our tour guide for the 2 hour crime based walking tour around Liverpool on Halloween! Such a genuine and knowledgable guy. Very interesting and clearly loves the city. Highly recommended👍

Gary Friday. A great guide for a great city.

Our guide Gary was informative, engaging and funny. His love for Liverpool was infectious. Gary showed us around on foot and on a bus and gave great insight into every venue he described. There were four of us in our party and he took time to get to know us as he showed us around, a real people person. I would highly recommend using this company and if you get Gary as your guide, a win double!

Gary Friday was amazing

Gary's Friday's Peaky Blinders tour was the highlight of our trip. Incredibly knowledgeable and engaging, the day flew by as he led us to one amazing show location to another. Couldn't recommend enough!

Gary Friday - fun and knowledgeable !

Gary was incredible! He had many great stories from Liverpool‘s connection to the US Civil War, the Titanic, WWI and WWII and up to the Beatles. Never had a tour guide try so hard to include all the tourists as well as trying to remember everybody’s name. The tour was very enjoyable and we learned a lot about Liverpool in a very short time. Had a good time

Liverpool True Crime Tour: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Liverpool.

How much does Liverpool True Crime Tour cost?

+

Prices start at $25 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Liverpool usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Liverpool True Crime Tour take?

+

Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Liverpool is not rushed.

Is Liverpool True Crime Tour worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Liverpool, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Liverpool True Crime Tour?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

Is Liverpool True Crime Tour suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 18. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 2-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Liverpool True Crime Tour?

+

Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Liverpool can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Liverpool and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Liverpool True Crime Tour start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Liverpool within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in Liverpool?

+

On Outty we rank every Liverpool experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Liverpool: "Blue Route" - City & Beatles Tour, Beatles Famous Walking Tour Of Liverpool- Small Groups, Best Of Liverpool Heritage, History & Culture Guided Walking Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit Liverpool?

+

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in Liverpool?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
