About US

Reel Tours is your cinematic map of the world. We are based in Liverpool, a city which has thrived on the silver screen for decades. We are excited to share with you our walking tours of the city, visiting various locations that have featured in some of cinemas' greatest works.

Whether you’re a fan of British independent cinema or the glitz and glamour of Hollywood, we will show you the secrets of the locations in the city’s only film tour.

Our walking tour tells you the stories behind the camera and shows you how Liverpool has been represented onscreen for generations. The tours will be led by cinema lover Gary Lunt and he will take you on a journey to some popular destinations as well as some hidden gems in and around the city. We also run regular film quiz nights as well as hosting film screenings and talks about the history of the movies.

GARY LUNT

1993 was a glorious year to be alive, Bill Hicks was still with us, Jurassic Park was on its way & a small child in Lancashire saw Jason & The Argonauts (1963) and Batman (1989) for the first time. Things would never be the same again for Gary, who has had a love of film ever since.

Growing up on a steady diet of Bond, Hitchcock & horror, Gary gained a degree in Film at LJMU in 2010 and since then has written for various film websites and is a regular Q&A host for Picturehouse at FACT, Liverpool. He is also BBC Radio Merseyside’s resident film expert, appearing on the Sean Styles Show weekly. Gary hosts the popular ‘Mega Movie Quiz in a Theatre’ at the Everyman and various other cinematic events. His dream is to appear on Desert Island Discs.

As well as having a love of cinema, Gary has also had several short stories/poems published and he is currently working on his debut book, which is about genre cinema. When he grows up, he wants to be just like Mark Kermode.
