      I had so much fun on the York air walk! Being able to explore the city from the walls was beautiful, and gave me a different view than I had from the ground. The guide was an excellent storyteller, and encouraged questions--he even had trivia questions with a prize! I really loved the detail and the thought that was put into creating a tour based around the theme of air. I saw a lot of things I might have overlooked, and had an absolutely amazing time! This is a really special way to get to know the city of York.
