We thoroughly enjoyed our walk in York! We had very little time in the city and it was then great when Alex booked us in on a tour where Dudley then took us on an "exploration" of the city as he called it. We saw a huge amount of sights and heard lots about the history of the city! Really awesome two hours! Thanks!

This tour was fantastic from the second we’d booked it!! The communication from Ian was quick and efficient, much helped by the fact that he does all the organising/booking/tours himself so he knows exactly what he’s doing. The tour itself was just so informative, I cannot believe that one person can remember that many facts and dates, Ians knowledge verges on encyclopaedic! I won’t say too much about the places that you visit as you need to book and see for yourselves. What I will say though is that is was fun, informative, good value for money, breathtaking and that chances are we will return to Liverpool with family next year and do this tour again, hopefully the weather will be better next time, but even that wasn’t enough to dampen our spirits. Thank you Ian, it was a real pleasure to meet you!
