Hello - My name is Neil, I am 70 years young and I have lived and worked in Liverpool for all of my life! I am a great admirer of the city, its people and its culture. I have been guiding since 2012, surpassing 375 tours for Toursbylocals during that time. I am happy and proud to report I consistently receive 5 STAR reviews for my tours and will endeavour to ensure this continues. You and your group will always be at the centre of my focus and I am always on hand to advise and assist you to get the most out of your time, both with me, and maybe plans for later, if you have more time in Liverpool. I firmly believe that the best way to explore Liverpool is by foot. My pace is relaxed and can be adjusted to suit all levels of mobility. Our City Centre is compact but never too crowded with lots of space in its many squares and parks to sit back, rest and enjoy the atmosphere between exploring the places and sights I will guide you to. The place is steeped in History and people are amazed to learn the extent Liverpool has played in shaping modern history. I have been astonished too at the changes to my home cities landscape over the last 20 years and have witnessed the resurgence of Liverpool to become an exciting and remarkable tourist destination. I will be proud to guide you through it's many wonderful attractions. Please take a look at my tours and reviews, if you would like me to customise a tour for you send me a message and I will endeavour to put something together for you that will be truly special! I often say my earliest memory, at the age of eight, was hearing the roll of drums that opened the Beatles first massive hit 'She Loves You' on the radio, my love of their unique sound and melodies has never diminished since. Ever proud of our most famous sons Beatles fans will find Liverpool still dances to the Mersey Beat! I am especially proud of my Beatles Experience tours, a truly personal journey through the story of their meeting and early days. Liverpool has some atmospheric old pubs each can tell a story or two about Liverpool's incredible history. We can include one or two of these in your itinerary - tours can be extended to include a Pub lunch sampling "Scouse" (Liverpool's local delicacy!) best enjoyed with a "Bevvy" (Ale) or "Black Stuff" (Guinness) Just let me know if you are interested! Please feel at liberty to combine short walking tours or ask me to customise a tour in order to fully meet your needs. Small groups can sometimes be accommodated by use of a car if mobility is an issue. If you should book a tour with me you will hopefully find me, as others do, a warm and friendly man with a wicked sense of humour and a genuine love for his City. I look forward to meeting you and sharing an unforgettable day out! 375 tours delivered for Toursbylocals in Liverpool, over 13 years, Loves local History.

Do you want to know more about your Liverpool ancestors? Do you want to walk in their footsteps? Do you want to see the places where they once lived, worked, and raised a family? Then let me take you on the journey of a lifetime. I am a local genealogist well used to using national, local and internet records to piece together a family history. Three of my great-grandfathers lived in Liverpool and I have researched my family history in detail. I know how it feels to unlock my own ancestor's history and pass it on to my present family, now held in trust for the future generations. Please contact me if you feel I can assist you in planning your trip to Liverpool, researching your Liverpool ancestors or guiding you in the City. The initial enquiry will cost you nothing and I will be able to tell you what you are likely to get out of the trip and what you can expect to see and find out.
I thoroughly enjoyed my tour with Neil. He told me of the history of Liverpool and surrounding area. My main focus was to the village of Tarvin, near Chester, as my maiden name was Tarvin, and that is where our name originated, centuries ago. Neil is very well versed in the history of the area, and a very pleasant guide. I hope to use him for my customers and myself in the future.
We had a lot we hoped to see and learn during our visit to Liverpool and with Neil as our guide we exceeded those expectations. He enriched our visit by researching a site with special significance to our ancestor’s time in Liverpool and in doing so greatly added to the quality of our experience. All that and the Beatles sites and stories too! We’ve used many guides over the years and Neil is at the top of the list. He made sure to fit the tour to our interests and to share his knowledge of a community he knows so intimately. We couldn’t recommend him any higher.
I booked this tour for my boyfriend as a Christmas present. Neil was such a pleasure to work with right from the start! His love and excitement for family research and genealogy shown through. You can also tell how much he loves his home and how much he appreciates its history and contribution to the world. Such a wonderful and unforgettable day for us! I felt sad to say goodbye to him as his lovely disposition and charm made our stay in Liverpool an unforgettable memory!
Thoroughly enjoyable journey with Neil L. He worked with me on the destinations and provided historic context to the locales as we visited the sites of significance to the Nugents and Carters of my ancestry. With Rainy weather we went to Liverpool Archives showing me how to access family records. Then journeyed to St John's Garden, RC Cathedral, Old Swan to Crosby, all important in my ancestry. Ended the well managed day with a trip and.talk via Mersey Tunnels to Birkenhead and back.
