In a city so down to earth and friendly as Manchester, we guarantee it wouldn’t take more than a minute or two for someone to stop and help you out if you were looking a little lost.

But you’ll skip that completely when you explore MCR with one of our Manchester hosts by your side - you’ll feel like a local in no time, we promise.

Your host would love to share with you their favorite places to eat, hang out and explore, make recommendations for the rest of your trip, and feel free to ask as many questions as you like along the way.

Get to know the best ways to move around - we reckon the best way to figure out the buses is to use them! So why not start in the city center, then take the bus to the revitalized Salford Quays Docklands, where you’ll find trendy bars for a cheeky cocktail or pint, The Lowry art complex, and plenty of other cultural gems.

Don’t forget to ask your host for a few northern expressions too - they’ll make you feel even more at home!
