The Beatles Explorer is a great experience for Beatles fans who wish visit iconic destinations in the band's history. The bus takes you from the stunning Royal Albert Dock Liverpool to Penny Lane, where you can live the song's memories for yourself and take a selfie at the famous signs. Then continue to Strawberry Field, another Liverpool destination made famous by the band. A former Salvation Army children's home, John Lennon visited here many times during his childhood. Take time to explore beyond the famous red gates – learn about John Lennon’s childhood and the writing and recording of the famous song. You can also see the piano he used to compose ‘Imagine’, the historic gardens where John found solace as a child and home to the original iconic red gates!  Enjoy lunch in the Imagine More café and browse the extensive gift shop before you continue your tour back to the city centre.

“The plan to open Strawberry Field to the public for the first time - so people can see a unique exhibition about the home, how and why the song was written by John, and allow visitors to explore the grounds as John did as a child - is very exciting.”
