City Tours

Golden Tours York

Join us for a trip around the historic walled English city of York. Founded by ancient Romans with a Viking past, our open top bus tour will give you a panoramic view of this beautiful city.

Sit back, relax and let your driver do the hard work as you explore the cobbled streets, see spectacular sights and hear fascinating facts from the live guide about York Minster, Micklegate Bar, Clifford’s Tower and much more.

There are 20 stops on this tour, and you can hop-on or off the bus at any of them. Why not take the whole circuit, then get off and maybe visit one of the 30 world-class museums? Your ticket is valid for 24 hours or 48 hours from the moment you board the bus, and a full circuit of the 20 stops will take around 1 hour.

Clifford’s Tower

Explore the one-thousand-year-old impressive stone tower overlooking the city of York. Built in 1245 during the reign of King Henry III, the tower has played a part in varying chapters of British history from the 1069 uprising against the Normans to its role in the Dissolution of the Monasteries. Now, visitors will get the chance to climb to the top of this historical tower and enjoy panoramic views of the city.
