As you enjoy the tour, please be aware of your surroundings and of other pedestrians, and please be careful of traffic. The tour will take roughly 1 – 1 ½ hours and is at ground level throughout. As we tour around the city centre, there are many places to stop and have a break if you wish. Let’s go and visit our first cinema! You should now be standing just inside Leeds Station entrance to the south side of City Square, next to the doors at the very end of the main concourse, by the News Theatre.
