Leeds, a city in the making. - 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.
