Group Leader
This G Adventures group trip is accompanied by one of our group leaders, otherwise known as a Chief Experience Officer (CEO). The aim of the group leader is to take the hassle out of your travels and to help you have the best trip possible. They will provide information on the places you are travelling through, offer suggestions for things to do and see, recommend great local eating venues and introduce you to our local friends. While not being guides in the traditional sense you can expect them to have a broad general knowledge of the countries visited on the trip, including historical, cultural, religious and social aspects. We also use local guides where we think more specific knowledge will add to the enjoyment of the places we are visiting - we think it's the best of both worlds.

G Adventures: Manchester City: More Than Matchday
Day 1: Welcome to Manchester
Manchester makes its own kind of impression. After being collected and transferred to your hotel, your CEO is on hand with the inside knowledge on where to go and what to explore. Take the afternoon to find your bearings in a city that rewards curiosity. When evening comes, the group heads out for a handpicked round of Manchester's finest local pubs — the kind of pubs that put the North firmly on the map.
Day 2: Matchday at the Etihad
Today's the day. Your VIP Manchester City matchday begins with private group transportation and curated stops en route — pubs and streets alive with pre-match energy. At the Etihad you enter through the dedicated hospitality entrance and take your executive middle-tier seat — padded, well positioned and with lounge access throughout the day. A match programme, a full range of bars and food outlets and the kind of matchday atmosphere only Manchester City can generate. Post-match, the lounge is yours.
Depending on kick-off time, your stadium tour may be included on this day. If that's not possible, don’t worry — it’ll be moved to another part of your football trip.
Day 3: Football the local way
The Etihad is a hard act to follow. But that's the beauty of football in this city — it runs at every level. Today you experience it from the other end of the spectrum, with a grassroots match from the terraces where the grounds are small, the crowd is close and every decision is felt personally. Scheduled around kick-off, your CEO rounds the group up at a local pub for Premier League fixtures on screen and the kind of banter that only happens on matchday. The game always finds a way.
Day 4: Manchester, off the pitch
Football done. Now Manchester gets to make its case. After a leisurely breakfast, a local guide takes you through the city's food scene — from the Northern Quarter's independent spots to neighbourhood haunts that reward the curious visitor. The rest of the afternoon is yours to explore at your own pace. Your CEO pulls everyone together one final time that evening for an optional dinner — the right way to end a trip to one of England's most proudly itself cities.
Day 5: Departure day
Breakfast, one last look at a city that doesn't do things quietly, then it's time to go. Departures are at your leisure today.
