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
Best Experience Gifts for Men Manchester
Why experience vouchers make the best gift ideas for him
Experience gifts really do make the best gifts! Whether you’re buying birthday gifts for dad, searching for surprise Christmas gift ideas for your partner or a fun experience as a gift for a special friend, an experience gift voucher can open up a world of possibilities. If the man you’re buying for has a particular interest, hobby or passion, an experience voucher gives you the chance to treat him to some time out doing the thing he loves best.
For plant lovers, a terrarium workshop, a houseplant or floristry class or a wreath making workshop are all blooming lovely options, and for the foodies, there are lots of Manchester cooking classes to choose from. If you’ve got an arty guy to buy for, one of our painting classes or drawing courses would certainly spark his interest, and for the men that love baking, our 2026 range of baking classes and delicious dessert workshops provides a batch full of tasty options.
If you’re just not sure what to go for, an open-ended experience voucher is a flexible and safe bet, allowing your recipient to choose a creative, foodie or crafty experience at a time and date suitable for him. He’ll have a great time browsing his options - from warming whisky tasting experiences and adventurous wheel throwing pottery classes to social paint and sips and unique knife making classes, he’ll love choosing something just right for him.
Personalised gifts for men to make your recipient smile
Having a look for thoughtful anniversary gifts for your partner ahead of your special day? Whether it’s your first anniversary, your silver celebration or anything in between, choose an experience gift to surprise him with and enjoy some quality time together. Head into the city and have a go at a romantic pottery making class for two, try some fun Manchester cocktail making at a mixology workshop or relax in each other’s company at a soothing watercolour painting experience.
If you’d rather stay at home, treat him (and you!) to a DIY craft kit to enjoy on a cosy evening in together - recreate your first date meal with a cooking kit and online class, try a virtual drawing course together or paint each other’s portraits with a video tutorial, a craft box full of art materials and a glass of wine by your side.
If it’s a birthday gift you’re after for your husband, boyfriend, dad, uncle, bro or mate, choosing an experience day is a great option. An experience as a gift is a fab personalised present, giving you the chance to choose something you know he’ll love and avoiding the risk of picking him a material gift he’s already got!
Choose a hands-on metal working class and surprise him with the experience of making his own knife, sword or ring, or pick a curry making cooking class or a Mexican street food experience! Other options include DIY cocktail making (he’ll love learning how to make his own mojitos!), life drawing classes or a fun and friendly paint and sip workshop where he’ll learn to paint his own artwork to take home. Go with him as a pair or get the rest of your family and friends involved and have a big old celebration together as a group!
Unique presents for the man who has everything
Got a guy to buy for who already has loads of lovely things? Looking for Valentine’s gift for him with a difference? Need 30th birthday gift ideas or 60th birthday gifts? Want to choose a unique Christmas present? Keen to find meaningful gifts for him to really make him smile on his special day? Whether it’s a romantic gift idea, a birthday pressie, a Christmas surprise or special something to say thank you to a mate or family member, picking an experience as a gift or opting for an experience gift voucher is a failsafe way to ensure you’ll be choosing something he doesn’t already have!
Experience vouchers allow your giftee to choose a foodie, crafty or arty experience at a venue, date and time perfectly suited to them! Go with them and make a day (or even a full weekend!) of it, or give them the gift of me-time and the chance to go solo to really unwind. From vegan cooking classes to axe-making workshops and glass art experiences to fluid art workshops, there really is a unique gift experience out there for everyone! Time to get browsing and spoil that special guy.
