Womens rights meets Manchester‘s music - Darren gave us a lovley tour with many insiders. He is funny and interested in his audience and wants to provide the best possible tour for non-locals.

Insightful and entertaining - I had a very lovely experience with Jutta as my local guide through musical Manchester. She shared her profound historical knowledge and many interesting insights about living in the UK. I very much enjoyed our conversations and the sights she brought me to. Full recommendation!

Knowledgeable, patience, fun, i just want to end this by thanking you Darren for a great experience, thank you . - To start with i just want to express how incredibly patient Darren was with my father and me, we had decided with Darren to meet up at a certain location, but because my father and me basically got lost on the tram system we ended up meeting up at a different location to meet up and Darren was nothing but understanding and warm about the whole situation.Now to the actual guide, not for one second did this feel like a tour, and I mean this in the best possible way, it felt like going through the city with a friend rather than a tour guide. Having said that. his knowledge of this place was immense, he was with us for almost 4 hours and not for one second was there a pause, so many things he told us about. I have been a Manchester United fan for a long time, but this tour gave me a new rejuvinated passion not only for my club but for this beautiful city.

Personalised city tour with Jutta - I was very nice to tour the city with Jutta. She was nice and kind and showed the city in a perspective that I could grasp the soul of Manchester. It was a great way to get familiar and see the major spots.

Must when ina Manchester - We had amazing private tour of Manchester. Booked a full Manchester tour of 6 hours and every minute flew by like we booked an 1 hour tour. Amazing and interesting. As per our wish, Jutta took us to Peaky Blinders filming sights and bar for lunch. We had amazing day, visited all the city’ sights and enjoyed every minute. Thank you Jutta!!! ♥️
