But did you know, Manchester was one of the first industrial cities in the world and still has a great deal of its original architecture today?
So, who better to tell you all about the history than a certified Manchester Heritage Club taxi driver? These chatty black cab drivers are eager to share their knowledge with you on a one or two hour tour.
Tours cover all main historical attractions including Chinatown, football stadiums (why not take a look at our Old Trafford tour info), the cathedral and Imperial War Museum.
Tours cost £30 an hour and are for up to five people, leaving from the city centre. All day tours can be arranged to other historical towns. There’s more about this on their website or send them an email for tailored information.
