We did the music tour on Saturday - it packs a lot into a few hours, and Rose is the perfect guide. Warm, friendly and full of personal experience of the people and places who define the Manchester music scene. Absolutely loved it, highly recommended- thank you Mrs. Gill, for continuing Craig's legacy.

Fantastic! Did the Smiths tour today and loved every minute of it. Rose is great and knows so much about the music history in Manchester. She sprinkled in other interesting facts about the area as well. I've been a fan of the Smiths since I was a kid and thought I knew everything about the band but I learned so much more. I highly recommend.

We were on the Smiths tour at the weekend, and really enjoyed it. Rose is the perfect guide - personable, informative and passionate about the subject matter, the city of Manchester and its musical heritage. We saw and learnt so much in those three hours, and fully intend to do one of the other tours soon.

I was on the Joy Division tour of 20 May 2023.An excellent and very informative tour. Rose has obviously been heavily involved in the Manchester music scene for many years and it was a privilege to have her as our guide. The tour has certainly encouraged me to return to some of the key places we visited the next time I am in Manchester.The tour group was very international, which was refreshing to see.I think the pricing of the tour was very reasonable, especially considering its quality and length and the amount of driving involved. Maybe it would be better to have a refreshment break before heading off to Macclesfield but that's a minor point.If you read this Rose, I certainly had a lot of contact with Leroy at Gullivers on Saturday night. A very friendly guy!Thank you!

Did the Manchester Music Tour Special in October 2022 and it was brilliant. As a long-term fan of bands from Manchester, it was a perfect way to spend the afternoon. The Salford Lads Club visit in particular was a standout. Rose was a really personable and interesting guide. I will definitely be back to do the Smiths tour in the future and recommend the tour to anybody.

Absolutely amazing tour, with depth to local knowledge and stories and history PLUS working with the community. Rose is an absolute gem. Highly recommended!!

Fantastic Smiths tour, Rosie was amazing. I thought I knew a bit about Manchester music, but this tour makes it so real. Salfords Lads Club is a tour in itself, I had no idea what it meant to all involved. Truly inspiring. Absolute must for any one who loves proper music.

Must see for any oasis fan....went on Saturday with my husband for the oasis tour and was the highlight of my weekend. Rose was so nice and knew her stuff even hung about with the band in the 90s with her husband from inpriral carpets. Couldn't recommend it enough ...my sister is already planning to go now too

Manchester Music Tour- I felt like it was a dream the entire time we toured around Manchester with Rose. Wow. As a fan of this music for over 30 years, it was an unbelievable experience to see the places the musicians lived it, wrote and sang about. Rose was absolutely lovely- shared information and stories and took us to so many incredible places. We took lots of photos, she took photos of us, played the music during the ride, asked if we wanted to focus on particular bands (Smiths/Morrissey and Stone Roses for us) and being able to tour Salford Lads was worth the trip all by itself. We did private tour so if the offered dates won't work, email Rose and ask for availability. Cannot recommend this strongly enough!

I went on the Smiths tour with a small group. The Salford Lads? Club was a real treat and the highlight was the Smiths room with a young band performing and meeting Archie, one of the older volunteers. Other sites include Strangeways Prison, Southern Cemetery and the iron bridge from ?Still Ill?. To save time, the tour could probably do without the 15 minutes walking around the Northern Quarter at the beginning. The only thing I?d have liked is a bit more history and context to the Smiths and Marr / Morrissey?s time in Manchester as adolescents and young men.

(Translated by Google) Passing through Manchester to see Roger Daltrey at the Apollo, how lucky to be able to take a ride with Rose! I had the opportunity to do the MMT Special Tour, next time I hope to be able to do the Oasis one! The 4 hours went by at breakneck speed, Rose is EXCITING! No need to be bilingual to follow and at worst if you pick up, let yourself be carried away by the magic of what you will see! I recommend +++ Thank you Rose!(Original)De passage à Manchester pour voir Roger Daltrey à l'Apollo, quelle chance de pouvoir faire un tour avec Rose! J'ai eu l'occasion de faire le MMT Special Tour, prochaine fois j'espère pouvoir faire celui d'Oasis! Les 4h sont passées à une vitesse folle, Rose est PASSIONNANTE ! Pas la peine d'être bilingue pour suivre et au pire si vous décrochez, laissez vous porter par la magie de ce que vous verrez! Je recommande +++ Merci Rose!
