A definite must do for your trip to Manchester.Written 16 March 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Doug C1 contributionBeautiful Friday tour with Paul and Jamie at the helm. Behind the scenes views of the locker rooms, press areas, and tunnel entrance, along with pitch side access (just don’t go onto the actual pitch) made this tour unforgettable. Paul’s life long love and support for the team made him the perfect City ambassador. We were very pleased with our experience.

- rlucciBarcelona, Spain17 contributionsJoe knows Manchester inside out, especially its music scene. He’s fun, sharp, and keeps the tour engaging without overdoing it.

- ColetteOldham28 contributionsWhat an awesome day we had on this well-planned, beautiful, interesting, and fun tour! James was the perfect guide; he wove together history, legend, and fun facts, including a well-orchestrated music selection that fit the tour perfectly! He took the guesswork out of visiting a new place by providing tips and suggestions at each stop.
We were immersed - yet not drowning - in the story, culture, and people of Wales, Chester, and Manchester. The sites we visited were a marvelously selected sampling that made for a delightful and diverse day.
Mike was a pleasant, safe driver, too; we could relax and see the sights without worry as he navigated the roads for us.
Additional kudos for charging ports at each seat, a fried-and-true visit timetable, and willingness to answer questions above-and-beyond. We would definitely recommend this Rabbie’s Tour to those visiting the area!Written 11 March 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ShivDaveDublin, Ireland2 contributionsReally excellent. Perfect length and pace. Jonathan had such interesting knowledge, loved that he played a few tunes to get a good interaction.

- arpitamGurugram (Gurgaon), India1,074 contributionsWe chose The Mountain Goat for the day trip to the Lake District. The driver cum guide was Jean, a very friendly and professional lady. She was very punctual and knowledgeable who poured in all the necessary details throughout the trip. Her experienced approach helped us dodge several rain clouds and we could make the most of day long trip. The journey was smooth and picturesque. Once out of the Manchester city the country side landscape is all rolling greens dotted with white cattle and clear blue sky.
We reached Bowness by the lake Windermere, the largest lake of England. Very pleasant and windy. The cruise took us to the southern most tip of the lake. A railway carriage with heritage steam engine was waiting for us. We disembarked at Haverthwaite where we meet our guide. She took us through the winding country roads along the lake Coniston, the 3rd largest lake of England. The view was magnificent as we headed to Hawkshead, a chocolate box quaint village with charming character. This is a fairy tale place in reality. We bought some ingenious signature chocolate and caramel from the country and headed bavk to Manchester.
This is a memorable trip and strongly recommended to all fellow travellers.Written 23 October 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

He showed us some amazing views and had a wealth of knowledge about the Northern Wales area.Written 16 March 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
