Hello I'm Jen. I have been a professional guide, and involved in the training of other guides, for more than 15 years. I was born in Liverpool in the same hospital as John Lennon, and my childhood home was a few short steps from Penny Lane! You will find me a city and Beatles expert, rated 5⭐️ by my guests - be sure to read my reviews. I can share with you my thousands of hours experience of private tours by private vehicle, walking tours and coach guiding. I am also a tour leader on what has been voted 'The World's Best Bus Tour- a real accolade and a true privilege. Here on Tours by Locals, as a small business every booking counts so thank you for looking at my profile and tours. If you don't see what you want, just drop me a message so we can design your perfect day in Liverpool and the surrounding region. Hand selected by ToursByLocals, I have enjoyed hosting ToursByLocals guests from across the world! And I've included pictures of me from other recent tours with my wonderful clients.Outside of the city, I also like to share my knowledge of the Roman city of Chester and the adventure capital of the UK - North Wales. Or book my time as a private guide so I can design a personal shore excursion/experience directly from your cruise liner. With many years' experience of in tour guiding, I am still excited at every single opportunity I get to show you, the discerning traveler, around the magnificent city in which I was born. *Liverpool Highlights & The Beatles* I am fascinated with the city's history and the story behind The Beatles, leading me to design some unique tours, especially for the clients of ToursByLocals. As well as all the hot spots, I can reveal the hidden gems and stories. I have a previous professional career, having held roles with significant responsibility in the corporate world. But I always return to the city I love - Liverpool. *Always Surprising* As a local tour guide, I can share my personal anecdotes and have been known to make my guests laugh, and sometimes even cry! I get a real buzz from treating every guest as VIP, from solo travellers to groups of dozens. I also know the best spot in town for a martini, afternoon tea, dinner or the latest trending vegan eaterie. With a keen interest in amateur photography, I'll love taking your photographs for you all day long. And ss an enthusiastic sailor myself, I can relate to you the stories of how The River Mersey helped to found the fortunes of Liverpool. I look forward to welcoming you to Liverpool, my home town and sharing the stories that make Liverpool such a special place. Thank you.

This tour was one of the best we've had in London. Jenna was so knowledgeable and engaging, we were sorry for the tour to end. We hired a driver to drive us around due to an injury I sustained which made walking difficult. Being able to drive from one end of Liverpool to the other and see sites all over town while Jenna spoke about the history and mentioned interesting facts was amazing. Visiting childhood homes, seeing sites referred to in songs, and touring other spots in Liverpool was so enjoyable, we plan on returning to see more of this lovely and vibrant city. I can't speaking highly enough about Jenna. I highly recommend taking a tour with her. We had so much fun, and she took some amazing pictures of us in front of various Landmarks and buildings.

Carlo was our guide for multiple regions in Puglia spanning several days. He would pick us up in whatever town we were using for base camp and take us out on daily excursions. Wherever we went he was very knowledgeable about the area, and we saw all of the highlights at each location. It was very impressive that Carlo knew so much about ALL of Puglia and it was great to have him with us for our entire time in the region. Carlo's flexibility and knowledge enabled us to change our pre-planned itinerary several times in order to make the most of our time. Unfortunately, we had a family emergency to deal with during our trip and Carlo was very gracious helping with changing travel arrangements and land transportation. If there was a TEN STAR rating to be given, Carlo would get an Eleven! THANKS CARLO!

Jenna is an exceptional tour guide. We wanted a tour of Liverpool that focused on The Beatles. She exceeded our expectations with a tour of our lifetime. Jenna's in-depth knowledge of "The Lads" enriched our visits to all of the sites made famous by them. She is an enthusiastic booster of her hometown. Residents of Liverpool should be proud of her!
