Just over an hour from London by train ( I do the journey daily), Leicester is rich in history, sport and culture.
Remember the discovery of King Richard III under a carpark in Leicester. In this tour we will visit the spot where he had lain buried for 527 years as well as visiting his majestic resting place in Leicester Cathedral where he was re-interred in the presence of royals and descendants of those who fought with him at the Battle of Bosworth.
On our private walking tour of Leicester we will also visit the beautiful old Guildhall and see the old Jewry Wall Bathhouse which dates from Roman times and visit other spots that were important in the life and death of King Richard III
Leicester also played host to the English Civil War. Whilst not much of the castle remains now it has an important past. You can still see the loopholes the Parliamentary defenders made to shoot out at the Royalists outside.
We will also explore the ‘modern’ Georgian streets in the centre of the city.

5.00We had a fantastic day with Stephen exploring Leicester! My wife has been waiting to see where King Richard III was found ever since he was found in 2012 as well as all of the historical sites around Leicester, and Stephen did a wonderful job showing us around and explaining everything of historical significance. From ancient Roman ruins that can be seen throughout the city to churches and especially King Richard III's grave and exhumation site, we had a fantastic day! We would definitely recommend Stephen to anyone who is interested in the history Leicester has to offer!
