The driver was friendly- the bus was on time the audio is outdated and often not in synch with what you are looking at or about to look at. Overall this tour was disappointing- definitely needs an update as currently poor value for money Torur on Sunday 9 June 2024 at 12:00 hours- drop down box not working to select tour-

Bought 2 tickets online but bus never came. Messaged the business on Facebook but no reply. This business may not exist. There is a free for bus provided by the city metro, take that instead.

We enjoyed our stay. 2 days in the city and one in Chester was fine. The people were lovely, shopping and the food was good. We did the main gallery, JR library, the science museum( v good, especially if you have little kids), media city( bit soul less?), comedy club, pub quiz etc We enjoyed the Manchester police museum - good for an hour. Flight Club was great fun! Ticked off the list! (Wish we had done the gin distillery tour and had experienced a match) I couldn't get my bearings at all in the place but that was probably just me!

Good way to see Manchester quickly. I enjoyed the tour but feel that a proper tour guide, as opposed to a recording would have been better.

This service is probably the worst we've ever come across in all our years of doing city breaks!! We went for the 12md service nd as said in other reviews it just didn't turn up!! And yet this time was advertised on their website!! A shambles!!

Be careful! I bought this on Groupon, before I realised that it's literally one bus and only runs three times at day (we went in July). Then when we EVENTUALLY found it and got on it, you weren't allowed off... let me explain... The voucher said to get on at the first stop, and stated this was Town Hall/Albert Square (which their map on their website also states). We went to get on at 10:30am, and no bus. We went to get on at 12pm, and there was no bus Keen to actually get to use the voucher before our other plans that day, we decided to essentially run ahead of the bus at each stop (which don't have signs, btw). Perhaps I should get in touch with their customer service team for help? Unfortunately, I didn't have a stamp, which is what I'd need because their contact details don't include a number – just an address in Birmingham. After checking their Facebook (good job I have an account), it turned out they've changed their first stop temporarily. We went to the art gallery staff, who helped us find the stop and catch the last/only other remaining ride (2pm). As it was the last one (there's only three in the day and only one bus remember), we weren't allowed to get off so had to just sit on it for 1 hour 20 mins. Even with the discount (came to £18 for two people) this was a rip off and ended up wasting a large chunk of time on our short trip. Manchesters the best though!!!

The tour was informative and fun. I got to see a lot of interesting sights around Manchester. I went on the tour from 2 pm - 3.30 pm and the bus was full though. Maybe it would have been better to do this tour in the morning.

We decided to go to Manchester for 2 nights as a surprise for my son's birthday and as we have been on other tour buses around cities, we enjoy them and get to see everything we want. We got to bus stop with 20 minutes to spare and no bus turned up, we waited another 30 minutes and still no bus. We text for an updated timetable just incase and no reply. There was no number to contact them either. A few other family's who were also waiting not just us. We bought our ticket through Groupon as we have done many times and never an issue. We had 2 disappointed children. We ended up paying extra for the normal bus that for £10 family of 4 was very good value for money and went almost everywhere we wanted, but we waisted lots of the waiting around so missed a few things. Such a shame for a big city that they only have a unreliable tour bus company.

I enjoyed doing this tour. The commentary was informative, we saw some of Manchester's best sights (despite restrictions) and the driver was nice and friendly.

Excellent hop on tour bus. Got a discount as booked through Groupon. lasted 90 mins. Excellent route, went into SAlford Quays, which we later drove to. Its not ear phones but the commentary comes out of speakers at back of seats. Sat at the top in the sunshine. Really enjoyed it.

We bought a ticket that lasted 48 h the whole time we were in Manchester. As it was off season the tickets were £10 each well worth it as it's an excellent way to see the key areas and learn your way around the city. Recommend this for anyone visiting Manchester.

Bought tickets online for 15th Sept, received email two days before telling me that the tour bus would not pick up at Town Hall due to cycle race. There was no mention that buses would not go to other stops either. Waited at Science and Industry museum for a bus that never came. Great inconvenience as husband unable to walk far. Apparently a message posted on Facebook that day about stops not being serviced but I don’t use Facebook. Unable to use tickets at all that day so wrote on two occasions afterwards to ask for refund as I am sure this cycle event must have been known about at the time I booked my tickets but no mention of limited service on that date. I have not received any reply. Everything else about our short visit to Manchester was great but we were let down by this company. Complete waste of money.

We took a journey on the sightseeing tour, and found it to be very interesting. The tour takes in a large part of the cities of Manchester and Salford, and the 90 minute trip is just right in terms of times. The tickets are valid for 2 days, and the usual hop on hop off system is used, and 21 stops are on the journey. The buses themselves are confortable, with cushioned seats rather than the hard plastic often found on this type of open tour bus. The front section is partially enclosed in case of adverse weather (this is Lancashire after all...!). The commentary is very good, not too long for each section, but with a great content. For the foreign speakers on board, an application can be downloaded onto your smart phone allowing the commentary to be listened to in different languages. The app also allows you to read the commentary later. Definately recommended, and at £12 per adult this is a very good value for money ride.

Great way to get your bearings and discover where you want to visit. A great way of getting around with regular hop on/ hop off stops. Could be a little sooner between tours, one hour is a little too long.

Went to Manchester for a relaxing break took the open top bus to see the city great value at £6 for two days. The Salford quays are worth a visit also Manchester cathedral. The town hall looks great unfortunately Was closed for refurbishment. Plenty of museums to see. Worth a short stay.
