The walk was very good, I think the walk is a great way to get to know York and learn something of it’s history.

Brilliant! Having heard the history behind York's buildings, old streets and my favourite York Minster gave the tour a big PLUS. Thought I was only going sightseeing but our guide took it to a whole new level. Will definitely recommend it.

The history tour in York was great! I've been to York before but never on a walking tour and it certainly exceeded my expectations. Thanks a lot!
