Our tour guide Nick not only had great knowledge about the local area, but also had a lot of knowledge about history in general. You could tell he was passionate about being able to tell people about the great city of York and as a first time visitor, I was glad I chose to go on this tour. If you're going to York and you have a couple of hours to spare, make sure you add this into your diary. Thanks Nick, from Peter & Pauline.
