Excellent walking tour of Leeds city centre, Michelle was a very good guide and was very informative. Although we have visited Leeds many times, this is the first walking tour we have done in the area. Discovered lots of interesting facts about the history of Leeds.

Tour tracks the origin and growth of Leeds through the centuries with a focus on its Victorian heritage. Along the way the tour iincludes information about the ambition and determination of certain individuals who made their mark reflected in many of the buildings we see today. Our guide Michele was first class and spoke with knowledge and pride of Leeds. Would definitely recommend this walking tour. Prepare to have your eyes opened.

Tour Guide - "Michele"|. Met at the Black Prince Statue (City Square) and she gave us a history of Leeds, how it started and then developed into the city it is today. The tour takes you on a two hour walk around the area, explaining the buildings, and the identities who made Leeds prosper. Excellent tour from a very knowledgeable guide. Thanks Michele.
