      How it works
      Is this a traditional tour or something different?

      This isn’t a traditional tour with a fixed script. It’s a fully personalized day shaped around your interests, whether it’s culture, history, neighborhoods, or hidden local spots. Your host is a knowledgeable local, more like a friend showing you their city. It’s flexible, one-on-one, and tailored entirely to you.

      Can I request a specific host?
      You can request a host, but since most hosts have other commitments, we can't guarantee they'll be available. However, we carefully match you with a host based on your interests and preferences, making it feel like exploring with a friend rather than a stranger.
      What makes City Unscripted different?
      We don’t do generic tours. Every experience is crafted around you, ensuring a unique, personal, and authentic way to explore the city. You won’t just see the sights—you’ll connect with the people and stories that bring the city to life.
      What happens if the weather is bad?

      Your experience will still go ahead, and your host will adapt the day to suit the conditions. One of the great things about City Unscripted is that no two experiences are the same, and your host knows the city well enough to find great “rainy day” alternatives.

      We chose our local guide. He was excellent. His correspondence before actually meeting was clear and very reassuring. He freely passed on local knowledge and his experience growing up in Japan. Very good experience.

      Darren was great! He was very lively and a true local from Manchester. He knew a ton about the history of Manchester. I had mentioned that there didn’t seem to be much to see in Manchester other than the two football stadiums but he assured me that there was a ton. I also enjoyed how he was flexible in his tour when I mentioned that I wasn’t too interested in a ton of history and just wanted to see more of the landmarks in the area and overall city. He even took me to a local pub. Definitely felt less like a tour and more like going around town with a friend and that was the best part. Thanks Darren, good luck to United.
