I took a group of 15 to York Dungeons as part of a meeting/day out and it was absolutely brilliant, the scenery, attention to detail and great acting make this place a truly immersive experience. We were scared at times and other times we were laughing our heads off. Special shout out to Mark the GM for personally helping us with the booking. I cannot reccomend this place enough, it was a great experience and one we should all do when visiting York. Thanks to all of the team at the Dungeon for a truly great time.

We went to the York Dungeon booked 3 tickets. £ 75 tickets in advance. We were 30 seconds late! ....If That! We were told that we were advised to be there 10 mins early, (not realizing that we would not get in if we weren't) We were there on Time. I stupidly handed my tickets to man on reception thinking we would get a refund, but as I was upset and angry at their attitude, I never got them back , So I have no proof. They would not refund our money. Terrible Customer Service. My advice would be DON'T BUY TICKETS IN ADVANCE.
Highlight of the trip!

Definitely the most fun I've had in a LONG time! The actors were brilliant, storytelling and scenes were spot on. There were some genuinely scary bits (I'm a 33 year old who loves horror) but rest assured no one will ever touch you. The groups were nice and small so it was much more intimate than say London. Really good fun for all ages and you learn a lot too. You absolutely have to visit!
Scary family fun

Excellent theming. Actors immense and totally immersive. I really enjoyed being bled, knocked unconscious and castrated all in one tour.
Excellent tour and staff are a credit!!

Absolutely brilliant experience at York Dungeon. Not only is the tour itself brilliant with great actors who are a credit to the company but I am temporarily wheelchair bound due to an operation on my ankle and the team could not do enough for me. They were kind, caring and extremely professional and also full of great humour. They completely ensured I didn't miss a single thing of the experience and actually followed me around the tour to ensure I had exactly the same access as everyone else. Please ensure this is passed onto everyone working on thursday 16th April, you were all brilliant, thank you for making our day!

Took our grandchildren for a trip out to York dungeon. Aged 10 and 13. We all had a fantastic time! The actors are brilliant, the rooms are very well 'undecorated' the scenery is very well put together. It is quite dark inside, however there are no steps, so no risk of falling. Great for adults and kids, great value for money, as it's around 1.5 hour's long. Everyone makes a huge effort to make your visit one to remember. Even the photographs are good value, at the end of the tour. 10/10 experience, would highly recommend and would most definitely go back.

What an amazing activity! I absolutely adored my initial trip to the Blackpool Dungeons so when I had the opportunity to visit the York Dungeons I couldn't wait. The whole tour lasted way longer than expected and was amazing value for money. My favourite part of the whole tour was the carriage ride at the end themed around Dick Turpin. All the actors and actresses were amazing and honestly they deserve a round of applause! It was quite busy but I did go over the Easter holidays! If you're interested in quirky history and spooks them GO TO THE DUNGEONS PEASANTS
