    HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. We had a tour of Manchester with Emma on 4th Feb 2022. We have lived in Manchester for 20 years and didn't realise how little we knew about the City!! Emma was so engaging and knowledgeable, showing us some hidden gems of the City. Her passion for Manchester is amazing. Many thanks Emma, we can't recommend highly enough - would give 6 stars if we could!! Jill & Dom Lunn

    I took my father for the day on the “Ale Trail” we had a fantastic day meeting some great people and seeing some wonderful sights. The whole day was hosted by Emma who was fantastic, bringing the day together with interesting local history and guiding us along. A thoroughly enjoyable day that I would recommend highly. Andy

    Great day day at Bridgewster RHS Gardens, finished off with a super history tour of Worsley by the lovely Emma. Very interesting and enjoyable. We can't recommend this girl highly enough. Our third time with Emma, I am sure there will be more to follow. Many thanks from all at Clwydian Walking Holidays Ltd.

    Enjoyed a fabulous tour with Emma on Saturday with a group of friends. A fantastic way to spend a Saturday afternoon of learning, culture and entertainment. Emma devised a special tour of Food and Feminism in Manchester which included influential women of note from history and of the present. Emma is a terrific tour guide and I am excited to work my way through the extensive list of tours she provides.

    This tour was a great introduction to both Manchester and its music scene! Emma was an enthusiastic and articulate guide who led us through the city's landmarks, explained their history and then played the music that bands like the Smiths, Buzzcocks and Oasis made there. The tour added surprising new emotion to some of my favorite songs.

    Absolutely superb. Emma helped organise tours for a group of uni students traveling to Mcr from the Midlands. The tour with Emma was excellent. Knowledgeable, enthusiastic, inspiring. The students were singing Emma's praises all the way home - and I'm certainly very grateful for the way in which she helped bring history alive. Absolutely recommend!

    Had an early evening Southern Cemetery Tour with Emma. Really enjoyed it, from the history of the cemetery and how Manchester’s history helped form it, to many interesting characters and notable people resting there. All communicated with humour and empathy. The youngsters in our party gained a new sense of admiration for their city! 🐝 Thank you Emma!

    Such an informative and enjoyable tour. Who knew that so many fascinating characters were laid to rest so close by! Emma was a fantastic host and made us feel so welcome into her world of knowledge and anecdotes. I would thoroughly recommend this tour for anybody even slightly interested in local history. *****

    The Streetart Tour with Emma was simply fantastic. Emma knows everything about the artists and all the hidden places, she spreads a wonderful energy and takes everyone on a cool journey. This tour is way better than any classic sightseeing trip. Go for it (with Emma)!

    Emma was our guide on a recent garden tour through Wales. She was fun, friendly and professional. Definitely an asset on the tour!

    The tour is a fascinating visit to Southern Cemetery in Manchester. Emma guides you around the features of the place and brings to life some of the interesting people who lived their lives in Manchester. She points out all the landmarks that allow you to navigate your way around the area. I particularly like the avenues that are named after the trees that are planted along them. I will definitely return to visit the place again and I highly recommend it to anyone.

    Brilliant pub tour from Emma for all the family, we enjoyed it so much. The breadth of her knowledge about Manchester, old and new, is amazing. Found out loads about the different pubs and their place in Manchester’s history, and discovered a couple of new favourite beers. An absolute pleasure and highly recommended. Thanks Emma!

    We loved our Southern Cemetery tour! Emma's stories were vivid and fascinating and we learned lots about our local history and the people who shaped our city. Beautiful trees, birdsong and an easy stroll, with Emma keeping us entertained throughout - cultural, fun, informative - looking forward to the next one!

    I was lucky enough to be invited onto Emma's Food and Feminism tour which as very interesting, fascinating and enjoyable. Emma read her audience so very well and managed to keep a group of strong chatty women fully engaged. I highly recommend and I look forward to more of Emma's tours

    I never knew that Worsley was steeped in so much history, fantastic tour with Emma today which included the Alphabet bridge, orange canals, coal mines and the amazing sculptures around the redevelopment of The Delph (Est1761.org). Not forgetting the ducks with orange bottoms! Emma you never cease to amaze me, always enlightened and always fun. Thank you.

    I recently went on one of Emma’s excellent Southern Cemetery tours. Emma has a fantastic way of weaving the immense history within the gates of this wonderful place alongside the significant points in history of Manchester. I learnt so many interesting things about the city I’ve lived in for most of my adult life. Thank you Emma.

    Our recent Sunday afternoon tour of Southern Cemetery was an absolute delight. Emma is very engaging, she is full of knowledge and enthusiasm and shared so many fascinating and humorous stories about our local history and those resting there. I learnt so much and highly recommend this tour. I’ll definitely be booking again. Thanks Emma.

    What a bright, knowledgeable, inspiring, breathtaking Manchester experience! A 2-hour+ tour by Emma perfectly tailored to our interests made the city and its vibrant personalities capture our minds and hearts! Highly recommended, be lucky to be guided by Emma!

    It was a really interesting tour, covering a little bit of everything. I learnt so much about Manchester, and Emma did an amazing job, despite the terrible weather.

    An excellent tour full of twists and turns. The social and cultural history of this vibrant city is brought to life by Emma's delightful storytelling that is both entertaining and informative. I really enjoyed the experience.

    We really enjoyed Emma’s tour of Southern Cemetery. She has a very engaging way of passing on information and took us round lots of interesting graves as well as regaling us with local stories and anecdotes. I learned that LS Lowry is buried here, as well as the industrialist who first backed Manchester United. Thank you Emma, it was great and I’ll definitely be on the look-out for another of your tours!

    Went on the Southern Cemetery tour with Emma and I have to say that it’s one of the best £11 I have ever spent. Over 2 hrs round the cemetery and the breadth of Emma’s knowledge is amazing. I cannot recommend enough. A great way to spend a couple of hours.

    The students found the tour highly informative and inspiring. Emma was brilliant and made sure we saw as much street art as possible in the short time we had. It's such a wonderful experience to feel like a tourist in your own city!

    Brilliant tour hosted by the brilliant Emma - so welcoming and similarly so interesting. The pub choices were excellent and the company even better. A great way to see a wonderful city like Manchester and a great way to meet new people. Wouldn't have been possible without Emma - very impressed by her knowledge of the city and would definitely book another tour in the future - thanks Emma!

    Emma was great and provided a brilliant tour. Gave us a really knowledgeable insight into the history of Manchester, as well as more recent pop culture in the city. Makes you appreciate all the historic buildings and events that went on inside them that we walk past day-to-day. Definitely recommend!
