A Floating Family Day Out...A Taste of Modern History

To celebrate the launch of A Taste of Modern History, a historical recipe book journey through North West cuisine we're inviting families of Manchester and beyond to join us on a foodie, floating, family day out exploring the region's historic waterways that connect Manchester and The Quays. Start your day with a visit to The People's History Museum, then climb on board and enjoy the waterways ride to the Quays with kids activities plus a regional tasty snack with a historical twist. Jump onto dry land at the Quays where you can experience pop-up dark room activities at Imperial War Museum North, visit The Lowry or encounter choirs, sculpture and fitness fanatics as you explore around and about.

3 boats are running throughout the day - book your place now as our family boat rides last year sold out in super quick time!
