The 30 Best Adventure travel agencies in Manchester

“Sept 2025 Nailed it again, popped in to see if the team could suggest a short break in the sun and they came up with Bulgaria, yes I know... Hotel Helena Sands was great a bit quirky but we really liked it, pool was great but cold, then again it was September, mind you we had a lovely heated pool in the Wellness Centre. Outdoor spaces were lovely, room was great we had a pool and sea view with balcony, lovely. Sunny Beach itself was a bit of a mixed bag. long walk all the way down the beachfront Strip to Flower street or you could take the mini train, if you can get one to stop for you! Bus was 2 Lev about £1. Shops and bars all the way. Flower Street was madness at night great for the youngsters. Has a lovely day in Nessebar Old Town, cobbled streets, history, nice shops, better places to eat. Food and drink was very reasonable. Went to Khan's Tent on our last night, dinner, cabaret show and circus entertainers with great views down to Sunny Beach. All in all we had a great time, weather was near perfect. Things were just starting to close down as we left so anytime after September I think it will be a ghost town. Thanks team”

“Amazing customer service by Amir, helped me through booking my perfect holiday, had the best time away and would highly recommend 10/10, would rate more stars if I could”

“Amazing service . Staff are extremely polite and accommodating. Would definitely recommend this travel agent”

“First class services from start to finish. The attention to detail in tailoring our itinerary was amazing. Throughout our incredible holiday in India, we were taken care of throughout the trip, with wonderful representatives, fantastic tour guides, and brilliant drivers. The hotels and experiences that were arranged were out of this world, and they really do care about the environment and cultures of where they operate. It was a real privilege to see and experience. What also impressed me about Conscious Travel was their ability to adapt to any last minute requests and deliver, even when you think it was not possible. Our holiday was unbelievable and it’s all thanks to Conscious Travel. I highly recommend Conscious Travel to anyone and I will definitely be using them for future travel plans.”

“I recently completed Umrah with my mother under the guidance of Heritage Umrah/Mayar Travel and I would like to commend the team for their professionalism and exceptional level of care throughout the journey. Our group leader, Amr, demonstrated outstanding organisation and attentiveness from the outset. He provided clear and consistent guidance during the performance of Umrah, ensuring I was supported and fully informed at each stage. When my mother required a wheelchair to complete her Umrah, Amr arranged this with great efficiency and consideration, allowing her to participate comfortably and with dignity. During my time in Makkah, I experienced a period of illness, and Amr provided valuable assistance by accompanying me to the hospital and facilitating my treatment. His calm approach and reliability offered significant reassurance to both me and my mother. The ziyarah visits were also well structured, with ample time allocated for reflection and prayer. Every aspect of the itinerary was managed with care and professionalism, contributing to a smooth and spiritually fulfilling experience. Overall, I found Mayar Travel to be a highly organised and trustworthy company. Amr’s leadership, attention to detail, and commitment to the wellbeing of each pilgrim were evident throughout. I would not hesitate to recommend Heritage Umrah to anyone seeking a reliable and supportive service for their pilgrimage.”

“Had an amazing tour to North Wales with guide Shelly. Her anecdotes, stories and safe driving made it by far the best tour I've ever done.”

“I just wanted to say, we had an absolutely AMAZING holiday. It was the best resort we've ever stayed in and has totally changed my mind about all-inclusives which I normally find a bit claustrophobic and repetitive. It was perfect from start to finish, despite the odd cloudy day! We had connecting rooms as requested and they made a big fuss of our son on his birthday! I’m already planning our next trip with you x”

“After a lot of searching for holidays myself and going round in circles I reached out to Becki who took the stress away and booked us 10 days in Turkey. Great hotel with a fabulous family room, fantastic food and exactly what we asked for. We will definitely be using Becki for all future holidays. Thankyou x”

“So glad I booked the walking tour with them. My guide was Gareth and my partner and I had a great time learning more about the city’s history. TBH, the 2 hours went by really fast.”

“Black Opal Travel Group planned the most incredible USA driving tour for me and my family. Every step of the way we were looked after, all our requests and family's needs were accommodated.

“We used Manchester Travels back in 2019 when we went hajj. The service provided by Hafiz Shahin, Kamal bhai and the team was exceptional, they made us feel very comfortable from start to finish. It was then that we promised, we will use Manchester Travels for our family umrah. They didn't disappoint again, as expected, guiding us all the way thorough. My kids felt so relaxed and at home. Having used Manchester Travels twice now, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone. I highly recommend them for anyone considering booking Hajj or Umrah.”

“Just got back from a amazing trip to Falklands, South Georgia & Antarctica. I meet Simon two years ago at the Travel Show he helped to make my trip of a lifetime come true, going through all the options available covering everything that I was hoping to cover within the trip. Wildfoot (Sylvia) arranged all my flights and transfer which all went seamless which allowed me to just enjoy the trip. I would recommend Wildfoot Travel to anyone who is considering going to Antarctica.”

“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!”
