For a historic city experience that you won’t find anywhere else in Britain, York is an outstanding destination for a holiday. Read on for top suggestions of what to see and do when you visit.
York is a destination that is absolutely heaving with different attractions, so there’s a huge range of choices when it comes to deciding where to go in the city.
If you’re a fan of museums then you’re in the right place, with options ranging from the National Railway Museum, York Castle Museum and York’s Chocolate Story, which is a deliciously interactive experience. A real highlight is the Jorvik Viking Centre, which tells the story of the city’s Viking history and has plenty of exciting exhibits and unexpected surprises.
Another top-rated place to visit is York Minster; a cathedral dating back to Medieval times with incredible examples of stained glass windows from the 14th and 15th centuries. If you want to continue the historic sightseeing, the 300-year-old Castle Howard is relatively close to York and is an excellent location for a day trip.
If you want to see York from the best vantage point then walking the 13th-century city walls is one of the best things to do during your stay. The entire trail around the walls is about two miles long and is open from 8.00 am until dusk each day, offering brilliant insight into the city’s history and providing a great afternoon activity.
York is famous for its narrow cobbled streets, and wandering through these is top of many visitor’s lists when they come to the city. The Shambles is one of the most famous streets in York and is the best place to start exploring the little shops and cafes and admiring the medieval style of the tightly packed buildings.
One thing you’ll see a lot of in York is guided tours, and if you want to learn more about the city then this is one of the best ways to get entertaining and accurate insight. With everything from ghost walks to tours performed by actors impersonating famous figures from the city’s past, there’s a lot to choose from and a lot to learn as you walk.
The best time to visit York is between June and September when the weather in the UK is at its warmest over the summer months. August will be a particularly busy month in the city as it is the school holidays, so if you’re not a fan of crowds then it’s recommended that you come just before or after the peak season at the start of June or the end of September.
