I organized a Shadows of York private tour for a group of students, and it was excellent. We all really enjoyed it! Dan our guide was fantastic - very engaging, and he tailored the tour so that it linked brilliantly with what the students were learning about. Mackenzie was also so helpful with all aspects of organizing the tour.

I extremely enjoyed this tour! It's the first tour I've done and doing it solo i was really nervous but josh our tour guide was brilliant at making us all at ease. Josh really knew his stuff and we got to see so many different places! Josh made time to get to know the group and interacting with us all, taking time to chat to us whilst walking to the next location. I really loved hearing all about the different places and Josh made time to explain everything in detail. So thankyou for a great tour and I'll be back in the future

Was a great insight into some of the history of York albeit the more unpleasant side, we had a very informative guide in Dan who gave us a great tour of the ghostly past, would definitely recommend.
