• 5An excellent way to see the city

  Very interactive, entertaining and informative. They put in a lot of effort to make it a fun way to see the city and teach a lot of the history. My wife and I had a great time and highly recommend to anyone visiting York.

• 5Imerse yourself in 2000 years of York History

  I have done many walking tours throughout the UK and Europe to learn about local history and I have liked many of them, but none has offered the fun, interactive and immersive experience like this one. Patrick and his assistant cover 2000 years of York history, by weaving a narrative that brings the history to life for tour members. Participants take on character roles with some simple props and dialog throughout the York Historical timeline. This was a fun engaging experience for our family.

About York

York is a walled cathedral city in northern England, a place of Roman and Viking history, medieval lanes and a vast Gothic minster.

York Minster, among the largest Gothic cathedrals in northern Europe, towers over the city, and its stained glass includes the Great East Window, one of the biggest areas of medieval glass in the country. Medieval walls, the longest in England, encircle the old centre and can be walked along the top. The Shambles, a narrow lane of leaning timber-framed buildings, was once the street of butchers.
