Outstanding tour! A must

David, our guide, showed us all the important places of Manchester and told us a lot about the city's history and people. It was a pleasure to listen to David, who is a very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and fun person. I can highly recommend this tour.

First time visit, not last!

I very much enjoyed the waking tour. It was the best possible way to get to know Manchester for my first visit here. The tour was informative yet entertaining and I couldn't have asked for a better guide, who was friendly, humorous and just all around lovely. Thank you so much for this wonderful experience!

A great walk around the city

Easy going but very interesting tour. We learnt a great deal about Manchester centre - not only regarding those sites we had heard of, but also areas we hadn't heard of or even visited before. Our guide was easy to talk to and ask questions of and showed a great enthusiasm for the city. Really enjoyed the tour and would fully recommend it.

A lovely day out

This tour was absolutely perfect. The city was particularly busy but our guide managed to keep the group together. He was knowledgeable and added a lot of humour to the tour. It lasted just the right amount of time to hold our attention and we learned loads about the city. Fabulous value for money!”

Wonderful guide, can only recommend

Nothing was too much for our fantastic kind, knowledgeable and helpful guide. Our small group of five learnt all about the most interesting areas of this historical city. Loved how well he was prepared with his personal photos to show us how Manchester used to look over the years and prior the bombings. Would definitely recommend as a fun introduction to help any newcomer to Manchester with starting exploring further and anything other than the apparent plethora of shopping malls and eateries.

Excellent tour and guide

Our tour guide was excellent! He had so many interesting things to say about Manchester and some personal anecdotes as well. He treated heavy topics like the three bombings that have occurred in Manchester with great sensitivity, care and empathy. All guests were treated with kindness and respect. The tour was educational and truly a pleasure to attend. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone!
