Experience Manchester
Beyond the Guidebooks

Roy made our visit to Manchester unforgettable. On our own, we would have missed the rich history and all the great spots to see. Our main purpose was to see sights related to The Smiths but the tour was all that and more. Roy was an attentive guide and personalized our stops making this tour a wonderful experience for both my son and myself. He was terrific and the city is full of music, history and life. We are so happy to have spent the morning with Roy. I recommend his tour for anyone who visits this great city.

Excellent tour with a very knowledgeable guide.

Jutta was fantastic! She showed me all Manchester has to offer, including hidden gems. I learned about it’s history, it’s charm and it’s tolerance.

Jutta was responsive to ensure we had a tour that suited our requirements. Jutta was friendly, knowledgeable and e had a great morning, thank you Jutta.

Absolutely charming, cheerful, and friendly guide. Even though I only booked two hours, she made the most of it.

We had a wonderful trip and we learned so much about Manchester and we’re really grateful to our guide for giving us a fantastic day.

Excelente guía con conocimiento y buen humor de nombre Darren, nos tocó muy buen clima y aprendo historia británica An excellent, knowledgeable, and humorous guide named Darren. We had great weather and learned about British history.

Daz was fantastic !! Lived here all of his life so a wealth of knowledge about history, the music scene and of course football. Daz showed us the highlights of the city as well as a few hidden gems we would never have found ourselves. Definitely worth every cent. Thanks Daz!

Daz did such an amazing job on our 2 hour private walking tour of Manchester! Communication was wonderful and he REALLY nailed our interests. I am a huge music nerd so I was skeptical but he is very knowledgeable about the music scene and history of Manchester. It was like hanging out with a good friend! We 10/10 recommend!

This was a highlight of my trip to Europe! The weather was disastrous but I had so much fun visiting all of the “Madchester” sites and hearing the AMAZING stories (historical and personal) that Darren had to share. He was beyond personable and if I didn’t live in another country I’d beg him to be my drinking buddy! Even if he supports United. Boo.

Personalized super tailored and flexible visit, the best!

Kevin estuvo genial. Nos paseo por Manchester y sus lugares mas iconicos. Nos explico muy bien el recorrido y nos gusto mucho su atencion y opciones de visita. Altamente recomendable. Kevin was great. He gave us a tour of Manchester and its most iconic landmarks. He explained the tour very well, and we really liked his attentiveness and tour options. Highly recommended.

Kevin was an absolutely brilliant guide. A well travelled, very knowledgeable person. He brough the Northern Quarter to life, from its Roman period, to its industrial peak with the cotton industry, to the modern era of BBC, Hacienda, Oasis. Will definitely visit Manchester again for more tours with Kevin. Recommend him to anyone with an enquiring

For me, a walking tour of any new city is an absolute MUST. The service provider was excellent as their Customer Service Manager communicated with me to confirm the tour and even arranged for an earlier time slot. My host Kevin was more like a friend, than a guide. He provided a preliminary itinerary before the tour and was prepared to tailor the tour to my interests. He gave me a lot of info and insights to better appreciate Manchester and helped me to better relate to the things I see in the city. My 2-hour tour covered a lot of fascinating history of the what's and why's to understand the motivations and circumstances that shaped the city. Kevin is certainly more enthusiastic about Manchester's rich history and personality, rather than both its famous football clubs. Kevin even shared some tips on places to visit on my own. He's passionate about what he does when he talks about life in the various neighborhoods, the local culture, values and lifestyle. Time really flew by. I highly recommend this walking tour to anyone. Kevin's tour has a bonus at the end, which you'll only discover if he's your host.

Kevin was warm and easy to talk to. He definitely showed us locations we wouldn’t have explored ourselves.

Kieran took the time to get to know about our interests ahead of the tour. He made it personal and fun, showing us lots of cool places, provided historical facts and interesting information along the way.

Had a good walk around the city and learnt loads about Manchester we had no idea about despite a few previous visits. It was really good that Kieran knew the areas so well and had personal anecdotes to bring the city to life. Followed Kierans personalised recommendations and had a brilliant dinner and night out after and he showed us where to go from our hotel the next day to get to the main shopping centres and eateries.

It was a great and very interesting sightseeing tour through the versatile Manchester! Thanks a lot!

I had a fabulous, sun-drenched* morning with Kieran, born and raised in Manchester. I was looking for someone with a lifetime's worth of personal stories to tell, and that is what I got. I never just listen – I ask lots of questions and Kieran had tales for every single one. So if you like getting to know a city through its loyal locals, try this guy! * Your weather may wary. ;-)
