Public transport: Our meeting location is adjacent to St Peter's Square tram stop which connects to the Metrolink and National Rail network

What to wear: This is Manchester and mid-November, you'll need to dress appropriately for the weather. Thankfully, we'll be planning to spend good sections of this 3 hour tour inside cosy boozers but in between, we'll be out and about. We can provide the loan of free umbrellas for the duration of the tour experience.

Dogs: Due to the intimate storytelling nature of the tour, we don't think dogs are suitable for this experience.

Refreshments: Not included. We'll look to organise our guests into similar "rounds" groups across the tour to make the pub stops slightly more efficient and help act as an ice-breaker.
