A joyful afternoon - My husband and I received a voucher for Rob's tour. Prior to going, we thought we knew a lot about the food scene in our hometown, but we learned so much more! Rob took us to some brilliant places, provided excellent snacks/small meals along the way, and was a font of knowledge. We didn't know what to expect but we had a really enjoyable day and can't recommend the experience highly enough, whether you're a visitor or a local who thinks they know it all already!

Brilliant Food, Brilliant Guide, Brilliant Tour - This tour was a gastronomic delight from start to finish. Despite the fact my husband and I have lived in Manchester for some time, and thought we knew it well, the tour introduced us to all sorts of hidden histories, architectural gems, and scrumptious tastes we otherwise would have missed. And Britta was such an amazing (and knowledgable) tour guide--even in the rain, and a bit of ice, our group had such a fantastic time. Can't recommend highly enough!

You really should book this! - On a cold ( but thankfully sunny and dry!) day we enjoyed this excellent food walking tour with the wonderful Rob. We were in Manchester for a few days, seeing a comedian perform, so looked for things to do in a city we hadn't visited before. The pace was just right, lots of really interesting facts about the food and the areas we were walking through. The food was absolutely delicious, and some different places to eat that perhaps we wouldn't have come across otherwise. We have been fortunate enough to experience similar tours all around the world and this definitely one of the best ones we have ever done. It was excellent value for money and we enjoyed every minute, so if you are thinking about booking we would suggest you do!

Fabulous food and fun tour! - This was a surprise birthday gift and the best fun! Rob was our guide around central Manchester and we visited and saw places we had not been to before in the city and ate some fabulous food along the way. Rob showed us so many details in buildings and streets that I had never noticed before and explained the history behind them and we had several stops during the tour to pop into various restaurants and cafes to sample the menus and drinks, all of which were delicious! The walking tour was at a leisurely pace and very manageable; it was great to see our city through new knowledgeable eyes and to enjoy excellent food and drink along the way. I would highly recommend this as a novel way to explore and learn more about the city!

Fabulous Food and Facts! - We met on a lovely November morning at the lovely Manchester Craft Centre, and kicked off the delicious food with a fabulous light and fluffy custard filled doughnut. I knew this was the tour for me! Huge thanks to Britta, our guide on this journey. A knowledgeable, fun and engaging person with who we enjoyed good food, good facts, and good chat. Thank you for your time and energy.

Take the Tour, you won’t be disappointed !!! - Absolutely amazing tour. Steph was our guide, and she was brilliant. When in Manchester look up, if you don’t you miss so much. Steph had fantastic knowledge about the city of Manchester, she was really friendly, and it was a joy to spend a few hours with her. We tried some amazing food and went to places we didn’t even know existed.
