5.00Jutta was an outstanding to a guide. She has lots of great questions to start and work out exactly how the tool best suit my interest. In my first time in Manchester, I could not have been more fortunate to have her as my guide. She was brilliant in her role leading me through the city.

5.00Daz 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!

5.00Manchester is such a cool City and my tour guide Darren was perfect. He has lots of interesting local knowledge about the town’s history and culture. He was fascinating on the music scene in particular. It was fun and I would highly recommend.
A Perfect, Fast, and Fact Filled Tour

5.00Did you know that the “insert item” was invented in Manchester? We learned so much on our two hour tour including the incredible listing of invented/created in Manchester tidbits that we have a new found affinity for the city that has nothing to do with its football teams. Jutta was always communicating prior to the tour and even gave us a great pub suggestion for the day before our scheduled tour - she gave us a great 2 hour tour covering everything we asked for in the lead up to the tour. We wanted to know about the history of the city with some emphasis on the music scene in particular the late 70’s and early 80’s punk and new wave music makers. We ended the tour with another great suggestion for a quiet coffee and scone location. Jutta can easily be hired for a longer tour should one have the time or inclination. I’m sure we missed so much. However, it was what we asked for and she delivered in spades. A great tour!
