Excellent, informative - 2 hours of pure information about Liverpool. Don’t let the thought of a 2 hour walk put you off, you only move a short distance before another interesting place loaded with information. You do cover a large area but it’s more information then walking. You don’t realise how much you take in. We went on the Merseyside ferry trip that has commentary running and they would tell you a couple of facts and we would add another 3 that John had passed on to us about a location/building
