The Dales and Bronte Country Small-Group Tour from Manchester
Very interesting and entertaining day
Had a lovely trip to the Yorkshire Dales today with Rob and Mike. They were very friendly and helpful and gave lots of interesting facts and relevant songs along the way.

A Taste of Manchester's Cottonopolis with Meals, Drinks and Guide
Fun, foody and full of facts!
We went on the Cottonopolis tour as a family group of 8. From start to finish, the tour was really interesting, and despite living in/around Manchester for nearly 20 years, we went to places I've never seen/visited. The food and drinks along the way were great quality, and the tour went out of the way to accommodate food allergies, making sure it was completely accessible. We would certainly recommend it!!
