Best season
April to October

If you’re considering your first walking tour experience in Leeds, we want to make sure you have realistic expectations. There are currently six different options available, ranging significantly in price from £5 up to £128, and lasting between 60 minutes and a full two hours. The average rating across all tours is 3.8 out of 5 – this gives you a good indication of the overall quality on offer.

When choosing your tour, it’s helpful to think about what’s important to you. The shorter tours, costing around £5-£12 and lasting just an hour, are generally geared towards a very introductory experience. Conversely, the longer durations – up to 240 minutes – and higher price points (£97 - £128) usually represent more in-depth explorations. We recommend comparing the duration alongside the cost; you'll find that some of the most highly rated tours are also the longest.

The "Hunt, an exciting cat-and-mouse game in Leeds" tour currently holds the highest rating at 5.0/5 with just one review, and it costs £9. This suggests a smaller group size or perhaps a more unique experience within the broader walking tour offerings. While there isn’t a huge volume of reviews yet, this top-rated option provides an excellent benchmark for what you might expect.

It's perfectly normal to feel a little apprehensive about your first tour – we understand! However, with six options available and an average rating of 3.8, Leeds offers a good selection of walking tours suitable for various interests and budgets. We’re confident that you’ll find something that suits you.
