We’ve been fully captured by Gareth huge and profound knowledge of the city of Manchester. The tour last 2 hours and time will pass between wonderful hotspot and very interesting stories. It’s like travelling back in time and discover the old Manchester, the poor conditions the immigrants were working in and what meant living at the time of industrial revolution. Last but not least. Salsiccia, a wonderful and sweet sausage dog, will accompany you around the city. Just lovely. You have to try it. Available both in English (very easy to follow and well explained even for non native English speakers) and Spanish.
