Despre activitate
Your guides know Leicester well. They know the medieval history too. Have fun visiting the key sites in the company of someone who can tell all the stories, as well as answer any questions you might have. You’ll see places that are not easy to find, and come away with a love for King Richard’s life and times.
The tour works perfectly with your own visit to the tomb in the Cathedral and to the Richard III visitor centre.
