👍👍 Organised a coach trip to Leicester which everyone enjoyed. Plenty to see and do, the King Richard 111 visitor centre was well worth seeing. Had a walk around the old town area, some lovely buildings there. People often mention Leicester, information, helpful, centre, staff,

    Couldn't find anywhere else to rate Leicester but here. Wanted to say what a fantastic city this is. Really interesting to see all the different cultures of people walking about. Some great entertainment on the streets from buskers, loved the clown!! Interesting history with information boards dotted around the streets. Very friendly atmosphere and the city centre streets are so clean! Chatted to a council worker who said they continuously go round picking up litter. Also no chewing gum in sight, the council worker said they come out periodically and clean it up. (Perhaps Leicester people are more responsible about where they dispose of gum!) Other councils could do with taking lessons from Leicester council. Well done!!

    This center presents itself,as a whole, a very welcoming environment and the staff who work there are friendly and competent in giving clarifications to the tourists who go there, the only flaw, as for as I know, the staff only speaks English. To conclude this center is stocked with souvenirs off all tipes,in my opinion not always cheap.

    Very nice place with lots of information. They have a variety of maps and pamphlets with information and you can also purchase tours and gifts, as there is a giftshop at the center.

    Whether visiting Leicester or planning to have visitors, this is a great place to go to help get your bearings. The staff are very helpful if you have any query. The shelves are stacked with panflets for local entertainment and places to visit. You can even pick up leicester memorabilia too.
