You'll pass famous landmarks like Bettys, Bootham Bar, and York Minster, uncovering their secrets. Learn about York’s infamous characters, Guy Fawkes and Dick Turpin, and discover hidden gems. Your savvy guide will reveal treasures even locals miss: concealed courtyards, unusual statues, secluded snickelways, and curious artefacts. Every gate (street) has its own unique story, and you'll hear them all as you stroll with your guide.

Included on this charming tour is a delicious taster from York’s Chocolate Story. A handmade chocolatey delight made on-site right here in York. This local treat adds a satisfying savouring in a city steeped in chocolate history.
