In the words of Ian Brown "Manchester has everything but a beach." England’s third largest city is probably the coolest outside of London. Manchester gave birth to the Industrial Revolution, was destroyed by the IRA bomb in 1996 and transformed into an edgy, urban metropolis. The tour takes you around the important landmarks that reflect Manchesters interesting past, the dramatic changes it has undergone and its vision for the future.
