Joe our guide was great, very interesting and informative. His knowledge of the city and especially the music and history is second to none. If you’re looking for a walking tour this is it. Thanks Joe for an interesting 2.5 hours
Fun ,wacky and nuts

We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves even if it only two of us. Joe was informative, energetic (boy can be walk fast) and full of passion for the tour. His enthusiasm kinda rubs off on you. Helping us spot things right in front of noses and giving us a musical history of the city. Would definitely recommend
Great tour

Really interesting tour, Joe has lots of knowledge about the Manchester music scene, he even played a few tunes for us. Great way to spend a few hours.
Great introduction to Manchester.

Great tour which included music, history and plenty of street art. Great local host for the walk, who had lots of interesting facts and knowledge.
This also helped us decide where to eat and drink and to navigate our way around the city . A good thing to do when you first arrive.
Worth doing

This was such an incredible tour! Our tour guide, Joe, was super knowledgeable about all things music in the area and actually had personal stories about specific bands that originated or had history in the area (ex: Oasis, The Arctic Monkeys, The Smiths). The tour was well worth every penny, as we learned so much about the history of Manchester, visited hotels, listened to songs, saw famous landmarks, and finished up at a pub. After eating at a local historic pub, the group of us decided to explore more sites and pubs as a group, just hanging out after the “tour” part had finished. Truly we met friends on this tour that will be friends for life! It felt less like a tour and more like chilling with some friends in Manchester (with lots of cool info learned). We just met up with a friend in London this week that we met on the Rock & Goal Tour in Manchester! Thank you Joe for a wonderful experience!
5 STARS Tour.

The most memorable was arriving at 10.50 for the 11.00 tour along with 4 other people for the guide not to arrive to abandon it at 11.20 to then try and claim a refund

A very interesting and informative tour. Joe contacted us before the tour to ask what we were interested in. He had lots of stories to tell and music to accompany the 3 hour long walking tour.
Great morning with Joe....

This tour was so much fun with Joe! He was a great guide and catered the tour around some of our music/movie interests. I loved that he had his speakers so we could listen to relevant music to the sights we were currently seeing. I highly highly recommend this walking tour. You will not regret it.
Nice overview of Manchester!

We got to see a lot of the city in a short time which was perfect because we were only in town a couple of days. Joe was very knowledgeable and catered to our interests!

What an absolute cracking couple of hours we spent walking around with Joe, the best £10 we have ever spent. We learnt so much in such a short space of time and could of listened to Joe all day. We will definitely be doing the same tour when we return to Manchester. H and M.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
