It was a real treat! The guide Joe is a real expert in the city. He knows all the fun facts about the city’s music scene. The duration is on point. The tour covers various aspects of Manchester, from history to music to literature. I will join his tour again for sure for my next visit.

Amazing - had never been to Manchester before and didn't know where to start so did a walking tour with Joe - so glad I did, a real eye opener, his intimate knowledge and eye for detail took us to places we would never have simply stumbled across, I genuinely feel that I know the city now, albeit through everything learned from Joe. I simply cannot recommend this tour enough. His little snippets of "inside" information here and there made it all the more worthwhile.

This tour with Joe was absolutely fantastic. His knowledge of Manchester is phenomenal and he showed us all the hidden gems, that you wouldn't see if walking around on your own. I can't recommend this tour enough.
