Description

Discover the heart of York, England, with an intimate small group walking tour that brings the city’s history to life. Your knowledgeable guide leads you through the city’s storied streets, ensuring a personal experience with no more than eight participants per group.

Begin your journey at the beautiful Victorian botanic gardens, where the ancient Roman fortress once stood. As you explore, your guide uses multimedia illustrations on an iPad to enrich the stories and reveal York’s fascinating past.

Wander the world-famous Shambles, Europe’s best-preserved medieval street and inspiration for Diagon Alley. Step into the labyrinth of medieval snickelways, following paths once traveled by Romans and Vikings, and uncover hidden corners of the city.

Marvel at the grandeur of York Minster, the largest medieval gothic cathedral in northern Europe, and admire the atmospheric ruins of northern England’s largest abbey. The tour remains outdoors, offering a comprehensive overview without entering museums or interiors.
