My husband and I had a great time on the tour with Roy. He is exceptionally kind, vastly knowledgeable, and engages in easy, friendly conversation. He provided us an eclectic history of Manchester with lessons on the city’s origins, music, food, architecture, and much more.

We had a wonderful time with Kevin! He showed us historical places as well as taking us to legendary bars. He was very personable, and we enjoyed our three hours together.

What you’ll do

What would you say if we told you that you can take your pick from over 30 independent and unique breweries to visit? And then you can sample the cuisine from all corners of the world in the trendy Northern Quarter? Then try the local pub grub?

We don’t know about you, but that sounds pretty damn good to us. You’ll join one of our Manchester hosts for a jaunt around Manchester’s breweries, pubs, food trucks, and markets sampling a concoction of brews, cocktails, street eats, and hearty pub meals as you go.

Try some classic British pub grub (food) like fish and chips or a Sunday roast (not just for Sundays, this is a feast of roast beef, Yorkshire puds and gravy - you’ll have to try one to discover what all this is), as well as experiencing things on the more hipster side of life at a brewpub.

You’ll get to taste beers straight from the taproom where they’re made, with some snacks from the food trucks outside thrown in for good measure. And if you’ve got room, wander (or maybe roll) to the Northern Quarter for cocktails in a quirky bar and diverse food which hails from Texas to Thailand and everywhere in between. Yum.
