    Easy listening tour of York
    We knew York had a diverse history so a walking tour appealed, although we didn’t want to tag along with a group. The pre-recorded format, where we could stop and start at our own pace and to suit lunch/coffee breaks, suited us perfectly. However, best of all was the narrator, who was very knowledgeable and engaging, giving us an easy listening, educational tour which we both loved.

    Blue Bell pub
    At one point we stopped at a pub and needed to cut out some stops to make our train time however I wasn’t able to restart the audio at the place where we moved. If the audio/stops had numbers then maybe I could have restarted the walk knowing I was at audio number x. We did enjoy the walk up to the Blue Bell pub

    Terrific Audio Guides of York, England
    Best audio tour of a city I have ever done because the narrator was specific with turns and where to go while providing a wealth of information about his city. Loved it! Highly recommend!

    Fantastic tour of York
    What a great tour! It was so easy to follow and informative every step of the way. It took us down alet’s and through areas that we wouldn’t have known were there otherwise. It was clear and easy to follow and picked up wherever we did, allowing us time to stop for beers and lunch on the way. It felt like we had our own personal guide with us. Thoroughly recommend.

    Informative, easy to follow, great value
    Interesting, Informative and easy to follow the route, we stopped and started a few times. We would never have seen and learnt lots of the history of York without this guide. We managed to navigate this with our dog too and one earbud each to keep alert!! We really enjoyed the tour. Good price

    We didn’t receive the ticket so we’re not able to attend. We were told tickets would arrive by email in 1 hour. After 5 hours still nothing. By which time we had to leave York

    Informative non intrusive guide
    An excellent tour with a really informative guide. Saw so much more of York using this tour. Even a hidden house which we never would have come across just wandering around.

    IIt suited us very well that we could jump in and out of the guiding. The route and the guiding was very interesting and useful.
