Has anyone tried this? Was it worth it, would you recommend it to others?

As a Mancunian, I’ve never felt the need to hop on one of these buses, but I have used them in plenty of cities around the world were I’ve had just enough time for a whistle stop tour of a city’s highlights. In that context, I think these bus tours can be pretty interesting and good value for money. If you’re not a native of Manchester and find yourself in the city centre, you are definitely not going to see Old Trafford, Media City and Imperial War Museum North by accident. They’re a good 15mins+ drive from the heart of the city. So if you’ve got 90 mins and £12 spare, I’d go for it. The only stop on the list that isn’t particularly of note is Piccadilly Gardens (generally an area to be avoided rather than visited!).
