Ciao! I am Francesca an Italian teacher who lives in Manchester. I moved here in 2015 but I've been dreaming about moving to this amazing city for a long time! Why? Because Manchester has everything you need, if you know where to look for..football and music above all, but also museums, great walks, and restaurants, its University but mostly its very diverse culture. I will show you around the city while listening to some good Mancunian tunes to discover its hidden gems and will give you tips for the best restaurants in town.

The tour with Francesca was perfect. Not only did she have an excellent knowledge of the ins and outs of Manchester’s music scene, but she also spoke about it with passion. It’s delightful to be with people who share the same passions. Furthermore, Francesca is a very pleasant person and gives excellent advice.

We had a fantastic time walking around Manchester with Francesca. She made a great effort to tailor the tour to our interests and she was really fun to talk to -- it felt like hanging out with a local friend. Exactly what we wanted, a great day trip from London.
