Led by an architect who’s passionate about Manchester’s past and future, this walking tour explores the city through the lens of its buildings, streets and hidden stories.
Unlike standard sightseeing tours, we look at why Manchester looks the way it does… how post-war planning, industrial heritage and modern regeneration have shaped the city you see today.
Expect original photos, architectural insights and thoughtful discussion rather than a rehearsed script.
Each tour is relaxed, conversational and designed for anyone curious about design, place-making and how cities evolve.
