Excursions in Manchester

“I visited Base Camp on the recommendation of a friend. I am glad I did, I can fully endorse previous comments. I needed new boots Mike listened to what I wanted and found the ideal boots. Great advice, patience and no hard sell. I will be going back.”

“An absolute gem in the heart of Romiley village with an amazing team who are not only super-knowledgeable and experienced, but who also work extremely hard to tailor make every holiday so that it is exactly what you want. They take all the hard work out of finding the perfect place for you, and then keep you updated with everything you need to know up to the day you go. From the minute you walk in the door, to the moment you arrive on holiday, the whole experience with the team at Key is a pleasure. I cannot recommend them highly enough!”

“We made booking first time with Gey me to the Alps. So far the process was very good. One of assistant was looking after our queries. She always responded with the update, follow ups. I felt I was guided through this. I got 2-3 different options to consider and links to additional information. I am looking forward to this skiing holiday. Paulina”

“The tour guide is very enthusiastic, careful and responsible!”

“I'd initially booked a two week jaunt to South Africa for my Dads 60th and after months of uncertainty we got the call that it couldn't go ahead. Despite this, Black Opal had stayed in touch throughout the entire experience, reassuring us that they would do everything in their power to make it happen. Alas, it was out of their hands. Black Opal quickly arranged an alternative trip to Murrayfield to at least watch the Lions on home soil and what a day it was, we saw all of the players board the buses prior to playing and a stellar 3 course meal with guest speakers. We had great seats and the atmosphere was as good as we could of expected. Black Opal accommodated a payment method they did not previously accept for me to pay for the entire trip and we got great rates for the initial trip to South Africa and the revised trip to Edinburgh. I'd not used a travel operator before, but I can assure you reading this and Black Opal I do not intend to go elsewhere ever again for sports excursions. Special mention to Ben Collis for the initial handling of my enquiry but my utmost thanks and appreciation goes to Kathryn Morris who was instrumental in the handling of our initial trip when it was in limbo and arranging our trip to Edinburgh. I cannot recommend this group enough.”

“Catherine arranged our family trip to Lapland. Her advice, organisation and planning was exemplary. She took the hassle out of the planning. I would highly recommend her!”

“I would like to share my experience of tourist trips with the tour company "Smile Adventures". I went on excursions twice with this company and two guides from this company. I am happy that I visited new places with Smile Adventures travel company, because it was interesting, exciting, instructive, informative and a lot of fun! I recommend everyone to take the opportunity to travel with a guide Lee. You will definitely not be bored, but you will get an excellent portion of informative information about the new place where you are going, take part in an entertaining quiz about a new place, hear a huge number of jokes, take a lot of beautiful photos with excellent Instagram views and return with unforgettable memories about your trip. I went to North Wales and Chester. Satisfied with trips. I would like to visit all new places with this company, as this is a great opportunity to explore new places for the benefit of yourself and the opportunity to get a lot of positive impressions from the tour and the trip itself. I recommend to everyone - choose the tour company “Smile”. Very positive guys. Energy boost guaranteed!”

“After living in Manchester for 6 months I figured I’d find out more about this city. My girlfriend and I did the free walking tour hosted by Josh. He was very passionate about this city and told many interesting stories and helped us discover some hidden gems.”

“My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Manchester with Gareth! We lucked out with the weather and had a wonderful time learning about the city and its history.”

“Went riding at Tarden Farm today for the first time, not ridden in 7 years so was a bit rusty and nervous. From the moment of walking into the yard was made to feel welcome from everyone which put me at ease. Beautiful well looked after and well behaved horses. Riding in lovely surroundings, couldn’t think of a better way to get your confidence back. Friendly and professional, would recommend. Will definitely be booking for next week.”

“Excellent way to spend an afternoon in Manchester. Guide Isla was great fun and the beers were just as fun, I’m not sure how there could be a better way for a beer lover to experience the city. Five stars”

“I went with Lupine to North Korea and am totally blown away with the experience. The trip itself was surreal, but everything was perfectly organized by Lupine, documents, Visa, ticket, meeting place, trains, guides... Full of helpful advices for North Korea and China, it was a great and easy trip and an unforgettable adventure. I will definitely visit DPRK again, and with them”

“Prompt, reliable service every time. There is a reassuring call the day before you travel to double check details of journey timing. The vehicles are clean and tidy and the drivers are very professional. We wouldn't consider using anyone else.”

I want to say a huge thank you, everything organised so well. I was travelling on my own and they made sure all eventualities were covered. Thank you so much!!!”
