York Private Guided Walking Tour｜United Kingdom

The “Capital of the North”, founded by the Roman Empire in the 1st century AD, the walled city of York is living history. Come with us to get the insight of York Minster, the 13th-century Gothic cathedral, Jórvík Viking Centre, and other examples of this city’s troublesome past, and for an insider view of modern York. Discover York Minster, one of the largest Gothic cathedrals in northern Europe and the second-best cathedral in the United Kingdom. Take some time to appreciate the sculptures, memorials, and incredible windows. Pass the Shambles, a medieval street lined with overhanging timber-framed buildings dating back to the 14th century. Learn all about the Merchant Adventurers' Hall, a guild hall that was once the most important building in the city. It was built mostly in the 14th century by a fraternity called the Guild of Our Lord Jesus and the Blessed Virgin Mary. Have a look at the JORVIK Viking Centre, built in the late 70s and early 80s after excavations discovered well-preserved remains of timber buildings and other artefacts of the Viking era. The Viking Centre recreates the Viking town, bringing it to life for the modern world. Experience this tour at your own pace, with a local expert to tell you the inside out of this vibrant city.
