A truly unique experience. It takes you through the breathtaking city centre and gives you insight into the deep history of York. I was impressed at how many interesting stories they told, with many women featured.

Highly recommend!

Fascinating and engaging tour!
The city is beautiful and our guide knew so much about its history. She told us some great stories about the history of the Romans, Chocolate production, how the city overcame poverty and disease, and really featured a variety of stories. We learned so much!
