    Excellent 90 min history and tour of York. Alfred was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic being a local York Guide. Would highly recommend in search of a small group (max 8) walking tour of York.

    Alfred was very knowledgeable and made the walk very enjoyable. We visited places we didn’t know existed and learned a lot about York through the ages. Definitely recommend worth every penny. Thank you.

    Having seen large tour groups in cities where it appears that most cannot see or hear the guide, I really liked that this was a small group tour. Sarah was clear where we should meet and followed this up a couple of hours before the tour began to ensure we knew where we were going. We are a family of 4, and there were 8 people in our tour group. Sarah learned all our names and engaged our history-loving teen in discussion. She took us around parts of the city we otherwise wouldn't have seen and gave a good-level of detail, so that those of us who know a bit of the appropriate histories beforehand and those of us who did not, all enjoyed the tour. She also gave some recommendations, which we happily followed up the next day.

    Our guide was so knowledgeable and passionate about York but delivered this in a really interesting and quirky manner. Lots of laughs and interaction with our group.

    Alfred was a master tour guide! Shared his enthusiasm for his home town and the historical context of York to allow us to fully understand and appreciate the city. Really, really enjoyed this tour!
