Our tour with Kevin was a highlight of our time in York-informative, entertaining, and very enjoyable. Highly recommend!

We are from Ukraine and live in North Yorkshire since start of war – visited York number of times and yesterday we were lucky to join a free tour of York with Richard – and boy it was great! So many facts, history, great bland of jokes and personality – Richard is a wonderful guide and great person was sharing his love and passion of York. I have discovered many interesting facts about city, history, religion all the way from Romans, vikings and until recent times. Provided by enthusiast – it was one if the best tour I had in long time! Thanks Richard for making us fall in love with York and spending your Sunday with our group, myself and my daughter who is 17 and loved it as well! Will return to new places in York which I haven’t discovered before and will try to join this excursion again when my friends and family are visiting! Highly recommended!!!

Thank you so much for providing such a great service. Neil and the other guide were very flexible and forming the groups. He was great at explaining the fascinating history of York. It was like an interesting walk through time with a professor. Thank you!

We did a tour on Saturday afternoon with Mick (sorry if it is not the correct name) and I want to give a big thank you to him and the association. We are used to visit cities, book a tour and a person show the city but this is far away of what we expect. The guide was really friendly, open to questions, full of knowledge about the city. Nothing like a local person who sharer the secrets of his city with that passion:)

We had a very interesting and entertaining tour with Mike. He has a profound knowledge of English history and a great sense of humour. We saw lots of lovely places we wouldn’t have found on our own and learned a lot of interesting details about the city. Thank you very much!

Thank you for providing and hosting such an informative tour! We really appreciate Mike to be our tour guide and gave us a long, clear history of York. He is very good at telling stories, showing fun facts and sharing personal experience of this city. Mike’s sharing brought me closer attachment to this beautiful, historical city. Thank you for being the ambassador to York!

Never knew I could learn so much on a 2-hour walking tour and stay so engaged the whole time! The tour was packed with so many fun facts that made you go aha! – I was not bored the whole time. Our guide was Mike, and his deep knowledge of history and presentation of the stories made it so so enjoyable! And definitely inspired me to go read up on more facts about York and the English history.

Such an informative tour. I have travelled the world and paid top dollar for city tours, and this was head and shoulders above the rest and FREE. Amazing. Thank you so much.

Amazing tour! Wendy was great! Red really enjoyed it!

Our guide Wendy was very knowledgeable about the history of the beautiful city of York. Recommended to get a good feel for the city and learn something along the way!

Just a quick email to say a ‘Big Thank You’ to your wonderful tour guide Debbie. She was very informative, humorous and made the whole tour yesterday very enjoyable. We had friends with us who had travelled from New Zealand and were very enamoured by it all.

Joined the afternoon tour today with guide Mick Popka. This tour was fantastic and I couldn’t recommend it more. Mick was a great guide and very engaging and very knowledgeable. I would recommend this tour.to anyone visiting York 10 out of 10.

What a wonderful tour and experience this is. John W our guide was very knowledgeable and really knows his history, not just about York itself. I would highly recommend this tour, you’ll actually see York and places that you wouldn’t otherwise see or appreciate without the extra bit of history/information. Thanks John from the couple from Wales.

Wow! Our guide Wendy was delightful and shared the history of York that captured our attention and peaked interest to learn even more. Our time in York is a highlight of our 10 trip around England. Thanks Wendy!

We had a wonderful and highly informative tour by Kevin. His knowledge of the history of York is extensive and his blending of facts with humor and interesting anecdotes made the tour so very interesting. Great way to understand the history of the area and its inhabitants.

Fantastic tour from Pete today. I learnt so much and he pointed out many little details you would normally just walk past. Highly recommend this tour, York is a fascinating city.

1. 4 travellers from Canada. Fraser was a great tour guide and very knowledgeable.
   Highly recommend!

Best walking tour I have ever been on! Richard was friendly, informative and a gread advert for York. Would highly recommend 🙂

We really enjoyed our tour with Ken. He was really engaging, knowledgeable and demonstrated interest in those he was taking on the tour. That he does it all voluntarily is really amazing and deserves a special mention. Thank you Ken.

Joanna was our guide, she really loves York and its history and knows it well. The tour goes up and down many steps some very steep. Joanna gave a good lecture on the places we stopped and gave us a good overview of the history, the tour moved a a brisk pace which didn’t leave a lot of time for questions. Taking pictures often meant you would need to hustle to catch up. It was great for the price…

Our tour guide, Ken, was very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and entertaining. The route was great and he kept the energy high and took the time to answers questions and share interesting facts with the group.

It was a mixed group with a range of nationalities and he was incredibly friendly and clearly enjoyed sharing the city’s rich history with us. Thank you for a great tour Ken.

Five star review!! I went with my best friend yesterday morning and our tour guide was the lovely Richard. He was very friendly, very knowledgeable and lots of fun.

This is a fun thing to do in York and it’s free! I never have any loose cash anymore as I wanted to leave Richard a tip, but I hope my review is just as good!

Many thanks, will definitely go on the tour again as I’m planning on coming back to York as soon as I can!

Great tour. Our guide, Mike, was lovely. He really knew his history and made it engaging and fun. Highly recommend this tour if you are interested in York’s lengthy and varied history. Saw lots of sites that you cannot possibly see on your own.

It was a very informative tour with our lovely guide Richard of York. I would recommend anyone coming to York to do this tour to learn the history of this beautiful city.

Tom was an absolutely brilliant guide who was fun and incredibly informative. There were places he took us to that I would have missed despite watching numerous YouTube videos and multiple google searches about the area.
What a fabulous place York is and how lucky are we, that local people like Tom are willing to volunteer their time.
Thank you very much Tom!

Fantastic free tour, Our group really enjoyed the tour of York on Saturday morning given not by a Yorkshire person but by a Scot called Fraser. The tour was brilliant helped by the great weather Fraser told us it never rains in York when tourists are visiting but I’m not sure we believed him! We were shown everything from Abbey ruins, to strange trees from a very small window to a huge one, from ancient walls to modern buildings, museums to Churches at every stop there was a story and just enough detail to keep everyone entertained and informed without overloading us. Do this tour if you come to York you will not regret it. Big thanks to all the group who do these free tours and to our Scottish guide for the day THANK YOU we really enjoyed it.

Thank you Ken for a great, informative and entertaining tour. We all loved it and learned a lot too. Your knowledge and enthusiasm made it very memorable!

Amazing tour, very informative from beginning to end. As first time visitors to York, we learnt things we never would have just walking around by ourselves. Our guide Kevin was friendly, funny, informative and was especially adept at helping us get into the Dean’s private garden in order to retrieve my mother’s phone which she’d dropped from the Walls!! I would highly recommend this to anyone who has wants to know more about this amazing city.

We loved the walking tour with Fraser and would highly recommend one of these tours. Fraser was informative and made the time with him very interesting. It’s a great way to see some of the city.

Our tour was with Fraser on a beautiful sunny spring day but even if the weather had not been fine I am sure that Fraser’s knowledge, enthusiasm, humour and love for all things York would have shone through. I really enjoyed the tour, learned a lot and would totally recommend this as a way to see York.

A wonderful way to get to know a lot about the city! Fraser was a great guide, full of fascinating information and spending time in his company was a pleasure rn

How refreshing to have an articulate and interesting guide who really wanted to share his extensive knowledge of York to everyone in the group – no dumbing down here and I loved it! Martin was very accommodating – I’d actually booked for Sunday, the next day, but preferred to go on the Saturday and, fortunately, I was able to join a tour to fill in for a ‘no show’. We followed an interesting and well chosen itinerary with clever selection of foci from different eras. Martin was approachable and inspired confidence. Thank you – really helped inform my stay in York.

Great Tour ! ‘. Nick our guide showed a real passion for his beloved York. This guy was full of knowledge plus he kept us entertained with his humour .. rnWe thoroughly enjoyed every minute. It was a shame we had to cut it short to catch our train .. Thank you Nick ! rn
