Hey Beatles lovers!

You’ve heard the songs a thousand times—but have you walked Penny Lane or stood at the gates of Strawberry Fields? Trust me, these places feel entirely different when you’re there in person.

Step Inside the Lyrics

On this part of the tour, we visit Penny Lane, with its barber shop, shelter in the middle of the roundabout, and the bank. These aren’t just lyrics—they’re real places with real stories.

Then it’s off to the red gates of Strawberry Field, where John used to play as a boy. Today, it's a stunning visitor centre with an exhibition and gardens—and a perfect place for reflection.
