Beatles Taxi Tour

Take a Beatles taxi tour that shows you all the old haunts of The Fab Four, whilst focusing on the fascinating social and political history that lies behind the music.

The Beatles started out at the Cavern Club in Liverpool, and the London chapter of their story began in 1962 when Brian Epstein discovered the four ‘mop tops’ and brought them down to the city. This was a step that changed music forever. You will discover The Beatles’ old hangouts, the places they lived and worked and the music venues their concerts packed out across London. And there are some excellent photo opportunities along the way!

Book with confidence.

TESTIMONIALS

“Absolutely fabulous. Paul Williams completely wowed my wife and I with his knowledge of The Beatles. I thought I knew my stuff but he had it all. We were treated like royalty and everyone back home will be heading your way. Thanks so much for making the morning so enjoyable. Keep doing what your doing guys.”

“Tim Brosnan was phenomenal of this Beatles’ London Tour!
Black Taxi Tours seem the best for personal tours loaded with abundant information. Tim made this tour far better than I would have imagined. He knew his rock n’ roll history, and knows the places . Highlight was seeing Paul McCartney outside his home for about 15 minutes, followed by our interview about the new Bond flick being shown on the news the night of our day tour. It was quite the day! Best words from Tim was; ‘I love giving tours so much that it’s not really like work.’ Truer words were never spoken!”

“Steve made the whole day extra fun- and was very clever with his idea to recreate iconic pictures of the Fab 4 having their own “Mad Day Out” in London. We enjoyed it all- in spite of the rainy London day. This was the best day we’ve spent in London so far!”
