Coronation Street The Tour

Had a fun time visiting the Coronation Street set... seeing behind the scenes and walking the famous cobbled street. Our tour guide was Alex who made the tour entertaining as well as interesting... highly recommended.

Had a brilliant time visiting \The Street\. However, I very nearly had 2 asthma attacks (once on the way to the set and 1 on way back to dock 10), as I'm disabled and was on crutches. There's a good 5 min walk before actually getting to the street, going over a bridge with several steps (I didn't notice any provision for wheelchair users). I would have REALLY appreciated some form of help if it had been offered! Obviously to be able to stick to the tour times, the guides have to go pretty quickly. Thankfully we were on the last tour of the day, so the fact we were well behind wasn't too much to worry about, but it did mean that we had less time to enjoy it unfortunately. However, our tour guide - Michael - was very knowledgeable and lovely which compensated for a lot. I have already recommended the tour to several friends and family members. The ease of getting to MediaCity & Dock 10 was incredible (it was just from there to the set that was the issue!).

It was really exciting to be on the cobbles after watching the show for so many years, this is an absolute must for any Corrie fans. A great family day out that will live long in the memory. We even missed our timeslot due to bad traffic and the staff assigned us another free of charge. Very happy customers.

This is a great insight into the way in which Britain’s favourite drama is set, and filmed. The day I went was terrible in terms of the weather. It poured ! However the enthusiasm and insight of the guy was outstanding. The tour was well paced with plenty of opportunities to take photographs. You can even purchase a professionally taken picture outside the Rovers Return Pub. I didn’t do this but it seemed very popular. It takes around 80 minutes and is good value. It is all outdoor sets so have waterproof clothes available if the weather is inclement.
