Why follow the crowds? At Yorktour we believe a great tour should also be a fun conversation, which is why we guarantee there will be no more than eight participants so everyone can ask questions and no-one needs to worry about being left at the back! This family-friendly walking tour includes all the key sights - including the exterior of the Minster and the celebrated Shambles - though we will also lead you deep into the medieval maze of ‘Snickelways’ to follow in the footsteps of the Romans and Vikings who created York. Above all, our tours rely on great storytelling rather than gimmicks - so if we can’t remember everyone’s names there must be too many people taking part!
  • Personalised greeting sign at the meeting point
  • Multimedia illustrations accompany the tour - all guides carry iPads
  • Complementary map of York
  • Entrance fees: the tour is outdoors and does not include museums or the interior of the cathedral.

Sehr informative und unterhaltsame Führung. Das die Gruppe nicht zu gross war, hat mir sehr gut gefallen. Guide Albert ist fantastisch - würde die Tour jederzeit wieder machen.

Our guide was very knowledgeable and interesting. I loved everything he showed us. We only had 5 hours in York and he helped make the most of it. Thank you.

Booked Yourtours to help us get acquainted with the town before exploring further on our own. We selected due to small group format and ratings. Sarah (guide) gave an excellent introduction to the city, its history and sights. Deep knowledge, very engaging, loves talking about York and answering questions. Definitely recommend.
