I walked in knowing very little and walked out with a whole new appreciation for herbal teas and a bag of my own custom blend. Tatjana has a real gift for making the subject accessible and fun - her enthusiasm is infectious. The range of herbs on offer was impressive and the freedom to experiment and follow your own instincts made it feel genuinely creative rather than just a lecture. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming throughout. Already thinking about coming back to try a different blend combination. Highly recommend as a gift or just a treat for yourself! + more

It was a gift for myself and my 10 year old daughter. We enjoyed the experience completely, she had the best time and the teacher was informative, professional and friendly.

We were lucky enough to receive this experience as a Christmas gift from a family member and it was fantastic. Davide really looked after us and we made two types of pasta: taglietelle and ravioliWe were lucky enough to receive this experience as a Christmas gift from a family member and it was fantastic. Davide really looked after us and we made two types of pasta: taglietelle and ravioli which were really delicious. He broke it down into steps for us which made it easy to learn and follow along. We've previously done cooking classes in big studios - this was far more personal and much better. It was a fantastic couple of hours and we're already planning to go again with family members. Thanks for looking after us so well Davide and Veronica! + more

Honestly, a brilliant gift as the course was just fantastic. Will, the teacher, is a natural and guided us with patience, humour and lots of little history lessons. At times it was like watching alchemyHonestly, a brilliant gift as the course was just fantastic. Will, the teacher, is a natural and guided us with patience, humour and lots of little history lessons. At times it was like watching alchemy and we were also incredibly pleased with the end results. This is a fantastic idea for a gift experience, oh and lunch was included. Our ages ranged from 13 to 56 and we all.loved it. Buy the course, you won't regret it. + more

Our carefully selected Manchester experiences offer more than just activities – they're gateways to precious moments spent together.

These experience gifts don't just create memories – they're also kind to our planet.

Gifts to get dad when he has everything
When your father seems to have everything he could possibly want, an experiential gift offers the perfect solution. Rather than adding to his collection of belongings, treat him to something truly priceless – the joy of discovery and learning. Our Manchester-based experiences provide the perfect answer for the dad who needs nothing but time for himself.
From mastering traditional blacksmithing to crafting his own guitar, these unique experiences open doors to passions he may never have considered exploring. For the food enthusiast, our exclusive Northern cheese and wine pairing sessions await, while practically-minded dads might discover a new calling in heritage building conservation or traditional dry stone walling.
Remember, the dad who has everything doesn't need more things – he needs more stories to tell, skills to master, and memories to treasure. Give him the gift of discovery this year, and watch as he uncovers new dimensions of himself in the heart of Manchester's vibrant maker community.
