Lennon & McCartney Songwriting History Tour

John Lennon and Paul McCartney were shaped by strikingly contrasting childhoods, developed very different writing styles, met by chance in Liverpool, formed a songwriting partnership, and that partnership changed popular music.

 

One of the themes explored on this tour is how those differences came together to help shape some of the most influential songs of the twentieth century.

What Makes This Tour Different:​​

  • It follows the Beatles story in sequence, rather than bus-hopping between famous locations.

  • We stand at the exact location where Paul McCartney first saw something in John Lennon that made him impossible to ignore.

  • We'll visit their childhood homes and discover how four boys who barely knew each other eventually became the Beatles.

  • We'll travel in comfort at a relaxed pace, with plenty of time for photographs, questions and the freedom to spend longer at the places that interest us most.
