描述

This 2-hour walking tour provides you with fantastic insights into the most historic and world-famous sites in York. Start with the Romans then explore the 'Snickelways' of York and complete your tour at the magical York Minster.
Your tour starts with a mid-morning or afternoon pick up in central York, where you meet your expert guide. Ever since its establishment in 71 AD, York has been the site of savage warfare, intense political intrigue, and industrial breakthrough. It was here that Constantine, who would shake Europe to its core by converting Rome to Christianity, became the Roman Emperor. It was here that Richard III, later immortalized by Shakespeare, plotted his campaigns during the Wars of the Roses. York is the birthplace too of Guy Fawkes, the greatest traitor in England’s history. 

This tour will cover both history and architecture but in a way that can really hold your interest. Many of the tour guides are local history students and all are well-versed in York’s unique history and keen to share it with visitors. Over the course of the walking tour, they will work tirelessly to show you a truly memorable experience. 

The York Minster is a truly stunning attraction and is one of the largest cathedrals in Northern Europe. The first church on this site dates back to 627AD and the result of its various incarnations is nothing but an architectural marvel. Your tour will also cover the English Reformation and its effect on the Minster. This was perhaps one of the most profound events in English history and the effects of which are still being felt today. Apart from York Minster, this 2-hour walking tour will cover Emperor Constantine, Richard III, The Multangular Tower, Guy Fawkes, The King’s Manor, Berden Hall, St Mary’s Abbey, York City Walls, Clifford’s Tower, Monk Bar, Fairfax House, York Castle Prison, Stonegate, St Williams College, and War of the Roses.
