Leeds Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

A lighthearted one hour walk with tales of the past and some ghost stories. Sprinkled with humour. Good value and you will learn some interesting facts about Skipton.

This was a fun tour, great guide and she took us to lots of interesting places down alleys and canal side including past a watermill. Lots of ghostly tales too

Very informative and entertaining. I'm from Leeds and there was a lot I didn't know, a knowledgeable tour guide

It was an absolute amazing experience. Our ghost STROMULUS was very informative about his fellow ghosts and showed me a new Leeds. I would definitely recommend other people to do this once.

I had a really good time on the Leeds Ghost Walk. I'd definitely recommend this tour and would definitely go again!

This was such a wonderful self guided tour! It was a lovely way to stroll through Roundhay Park and learn some interesting and cute history. I loved the VoiceMap app that it used — it knows where you are, so you can walk at your own pace and the narrator will talk when you get to the key spots. So great!

This was an excellent tour to the sights of Leeds. Sarah was the perfect guide, funny, engaging, and she made the tour really enjoyable.

We had a fantastic tour of the Yorkshire Dales with Chris! He was a brilliant guide, showing us around some beautiful spots while sharing fascinating facts and stories along the way. Our group ranged in age from 13 to 80, and Chris managed to make the experience enjoyable and interesting for everyone. His knowledge, humor, and friendly approach made the day feel relaxed and fun, while we got to see and learn so much about this incredible part of Yorkshire. A wonderful day exploring the Yorkshire Dales, and we would highly recommend Chris as a guide!

Very punny and interesting! Otley has much more history funny/grisly than I expected and you could tell the guide had a real passion for local history. Happy to answer questions, we had a great time. Beautiful town. We even bumped into a local one of the stories had come from which was cool!

A lovely day taking in the interesting history of Harrogate with some really good food from local suppliers. We found places to eat that we had never noticed before and will return to. We looked at buildings and noticed things that we had never thought to look up and see. All in all, a lovely day with a very pleasant guide.

From drop off, to getting on the Ryan air flight to Dublin, it was a brilliant day. Dropping the luggage off was so easy, we also entered a jet2 competition whilst we were there and won 2 free return tickets for any jet2 destination. Security was a walk through. Even though there was construction going on, the shops,bars,eating places were readily avaliable. A brilliant start to a fantastic weekend in ireland

I thoroughly enjoyed the tour. A lovely way to spend a couple of hours in a vibrant and interesting city. Michelle was an excellent host, fun and extremely knowledgeable.

We've now completed two York food tours with Yorkshire Appetite and both have been fantastic afternoons with a couple of different stops on the most recent tour! This weekend we had Kay as a guide and she is so nice, friendly and knowledge! It was lovely to learn some of York's history and have great food (and lots of it) and drinks along the way! Thank you Kay - we wouldn't hesitate to recommend and we're sure that we'll be joining you on another tour soon!

Harlow Carr Gardens is a fantastic place for a day out with friends! The gardens are beautifully maintained, with stunning seasonal displays, peaceful walking paths, and plenty of lovely spots to sit and enjoy the scenery. We spent hours exploring the different areas and discovering something new around every corner.The atmosphere is relaxing and welcoming, making it the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The café was also excellent, with delicious food and plenty of choice. Whether you're a keen gardener or just looking for a lovely day out in nature, Harlow Carr is well worth a visit. We all had a wonderful time and can't wait to return!

With Spindleshanks Mcscrew excellent evening tour very informative and fun outing. Visited a few new places in Otley. Highly recommend, the guide is super!

The tour we did on Saturday was excellent! Couldn't find fault with anything - the guide , Ellen, was very informative, the food was delicious and even the weather was lovely and sunny. Got the chance to try foods that neither of us had had before (Japanese) and I had my first doner kebab which was very tasty. Our favourite was the Italian but the food served at each of the 6 venues was of a very high standard. Would definitely book another tour either in Leeds or York.
