The Coronation Street Experience - Manchester

Laura Barker

Loved it. If you are a Coronation Street fan, it's well worth a visit. Our guide was Julie, and she was really friendly and knowledgeable. It's great to see how it's filmed and put together.
The cobbles are real and can be hard to walk on. I needed my walking stick due to my disability. Otherwise, it's really accessible. With a lift up to the museum area.

I bought a Corrie Experience Tour as a gift for my wife and have to say that I wasn't really that keen on going. How wrong was I? Everything about the visit was simply amazing and because it was guided it was made really special because you don't miss anything with a structured tour. Out tour guides Ellen and David were fabulous, knowledgeable, engaging and truly delightful, so full marks to both of them. Coronation Street is a British institution and long may that continue. To get near to this by looking behind the scenes is nothing short of a treat for fans. This is the best attraction by miles and was worth every single penny. I would definitely go again and I don't say that very often.

Great experience. A 90 minute walk around the open air sets of Coronation Street. Cafe and shop are really small, so do not arrive early, plus tickets in advance are probably an absolute must. We went to the early morning slot and our tour was busy enough as you go around the sets with an insightful guide but later when we came out the tours looked even busier. ITV pelase give some sort of visible access to the sets as part of the experience is to see the filming process, but sadly this is NOT part of the tour. There is a museum upstairs including a mock of the Rovers Return for photos. A really enjoyable experience.

Loved it lots to see
Guide sorry need to be little older and knowledge needs to improve
Yes, we got to see a star, but we need to be better one longer in show or ones who play more roles.
Please go as it gives you an insight into how it is done.
Also, it would be good to see inside the studio of set to see how it is done.
I wouldn't like to do a tour if it was raining as it was cold and windy today.

A memorable afternoon visit. Cafe, shop and exhibition a little too busy but a great tour led by Katie and Jack. The introductory video was splendid and it was really interesting to see the outside of all the locations we'd seen so often on telly. However, I missed being able to see any interior sets. This used to be included when I visited Coronation Street at the previous location. We also felt the free time allowed in Coronation Street itself passed too quickly. Perhaps this was because our start time had been delayed.
It was a delight to meet Ryan, however brief the encounter. (He has promised to bring Carla to meet us at home. I hope he doesn't forget!) ?

What a fantastic tour. Really insightful and so much fun. Julie and Helen who took us on our tour were great and so knowledgeable. You can tell how much passion Julie had for the show and made the tour so enjoyable. Great experience

Unforgettable Tour of Coronation Street with Superstar Guide Scott!

I recently had the pleasure of visiting the ITV Coronation Street Experience with my 6-year-old son, Logan, who is a huge fan of the show. Our tour guide, Scott, turned what could have been a simple walk down the cobbles into a magical and memorable adventure!

Scott was absolutely phenomenal. From the moment the tour started, his energy and enthusiasm were contagious. He noticed Logan's excitement and made sure to bring him to the front, ensuring my little one didn't miss a beat. Scott's animated storytelling captivated everyone, especially Logan, making us feel as though we were part of the Coronation Street family.

The way Scott engaged with the audience was spectacular. His dynamic presence and charm could easily light up stages far beyond, reminiscent of a seasoned Broadway star or a beloved pantomime actor. It's rare to find someone who not only does their job well but also goes above and beyond to make every tour attendee feel special.

Thanks to Scott, our visit to Coronation Street was not just a tour; it was an unforgettable experience filled with laughter, learning, and lots of fun. It’s clear that he loves what he does, and his passion makes all the difference. We can't wait to go back!

Highly recommend this experience to anyone, especially if you're lucky enough to get Scott as your guide. Five stars all the way!

Brilliant experience, we did the old tour that was based in the centre of Manchester, but this was much better. There's a lot of new bites compared to the last one. The tour is mostly outside, so make sure you dress for the weather. We had an excellent tour guide who was very knowledgeable.

There's a nice little cafe and gift shop at the start. In the end you can look around the exhibition. The nearest carpark is next door in the war museum.
