About

Our mission is to give LFC fans the ultimate LFC experience

The LFC Explorer is an open top tour bus with a live tour guide. Starting at the Royal Albert Dock Liverpool, the route takes in some of the city centre's most historical sites, such as the famous Three Graces including Liverpool’s Royal Liver Building where you can see the famous Liver Birds that appear on the crest of the LFC badge. Before making its way up to Anfield, the bus enjoys a short stop at the best view in the whole of Liverpool from Everton park giving views of the entire city, the Wirral peninsula and the mountains of North Wales.

The tour finishes outside the world famous Anfield Kop were you can hop off and take a stadium tour and see the new Steven Gerrard collection or even book a Legends tour. You can then enjoy lunch in the Boot Room Café or just browse the Anfield souvenir shop. Having taken in everything there is on offer at the home of the Reds, passengers can then hop back on the bus to make the return trip into the city.

Testimonials

We aim to provide the best possible experience for our customers. See what they have to say about their time on the LFC City Explorer tour!

From the driver to the guide, all were real Liverpudlians with laughs in abundance. As a supporter of LFC since 1973, I was blown away with the stories and detail - not only of the football but of the social history of this fantastic city.

- Jarlath

Took the LFC City Explorer to and from Anfield. Tony was our tour guide and was really informative and friendly along with our driver who I think was Phil. Excellent service and good value for money, would use the service again.

- Louise

Got to Anfield and back while being entertained by a highly knowledgeable tour guide who gave information about both the city and the links to Liverpool Football Club. He gave a brief history, cracked some jokes towards Everton and Man United along the way.
