Enjoyable tour of York. It was raining on our day but we were provided with plastic ponchos that helped. We didn't hope off on this tour. Just stayed on for the whole route but it was a good way of seeing the sights

Good fount of knowledge but didn't really announce all the stops and what they can be used for. Still a good way to save your legs.

Really nice to sit back and listen to the history which is done via a guide rather than the standard earplugs, so much better.
