Manchester United & Museum Tour | Manchester Museum

I had friends visiting me in Manchester, and as they have a young lad, we decided to have a day at the Museums. 

Manchester United Museum & Tour


It has been four years since I last participated in the Manchester United Museum and Tour, but it was great to be back. The tour guides are part of the woodwork, and Manchester United through and through. they are full of insight and personal knowledge. True embodiment of fans.



It is always great to see the clubs history, memorabilia, and the many many trophies won over the years, but it is truly magnificent to see everything on display. Weaving in and out, and around the stadium, you get a full understanding of the magnitude of the club and stadium. The best part is walking out to the pitch (obviously without stepping on the pitch, but veering to one side towards the Manager's dugout).



What's new: An exhibit dedicated to Ryan Giggs. Brilliant!



The tour ends with a little VT of United's success, and I am not ashamed to say that it brought a tear to my eye. (I look forward to those days returning :))

This tour is great for fans, but it is also great for visitors. If in Manchester, visit Old Trafford, the Theatre of Dreams.

Great place to take the family! 

Currently they have an Egyptian exhibit, dinosaur bones, and lots of great stuffed animals. 




Fun, educational, and free! The museum has such a prestigious collection. Worth a visit!
