Very informative I enjoyed all our tour guide had to say! Lots of interesting facts i just love the York Minster we would take the tour again!

Guide although of pleasant disposition had an extremely poor delivery. Also, I booked for two hours, guide had no more to say after one hour & offered to take us on tour of city, but as we already had a tour in the morning we politely refused. I feel as if I have been short changed & not at all happy about it. Most disappointed. I am local to York & have had other tours by very erudite individuals with a broad dept of knowledge & was expecting something similar but this tour fell well short.
