Description
York is a city which rewards exploration as there is something new to see around every corner. From the incredible Shambles and the maze of medieval alleyways to the spectacular Minster, York’s history is written in its streets.
With your 24hr hop-on, hop-off bus ticket, you’ll be able to explore the city to your heart’s content. A great place to start your exploring is Exhibition Square, with amazing views of the Minster and home to the York Art Gallery.
Don't miss Walmgate Bar, where you can see the country’s only fully intact medieval city gate. Hop off at South Bank to see Rowntree Park, which was given to the city by the chocolate company Rowntree in memory of the company’s staff who died during the First World War. It’s a beautiful memorial and the perfect spot for a picnic.
Clifford’s Tower is another highlight on the City Sightseeing open-top tour. This imposing tower was built by William the Conqueror nearly a thousand years ago and offers some of the very best views over the city. It’s also a short walk from one of the two points where you can board your river cruise along the Ouse.
York owes the birth of its chocolate industry to the river and the Vikings would have sailed their long ships up its waters. Join the city boat tour and take a relaxing trip along the river while listening to your guide share interesting facts about the history of York.
