  Alfred met us at our hotel and took us on a fabulous walking tour around old York town. Alfred was delightful and very knowledgeable. He also had a knack of relating the history to current times. Mary and I had a very enjoyable experience. Alfred was very accomodating to allow us rest breaks. I would highly recommend this walking tour as the best way to see and understand York . Simply outstanding.

  Had an amazing private tour with Alfred. His extensive knowledge and ability to tell a story made the tour so engaging. We are still talking about it a month later. Alfred organized a walk that allowed for even time for tea at Betty's and a rest. Highly recommend this tour to connect and learn your way around York.

  A superb tour; Alfred captivated the children (age 2-9) and deftly wove their questions and knowledge into the narrative. A nice touch that he also extended the history to include our home city. Thank you - I’m sure we will book again.

  Alfred was a gracious, knowledgeable, and engaging guide. His storytelling brilliantly weaved together the story of York - this alone is a tall order given York's many-layered history. We saw many well-known sights (perfect for my in-laws' first visit to York), and some hidden gems. Alfred was also very kind to answer all of our questions with keen insights. I highly recommend this tour with Alfred for your next visit to York, whether it's your first or 10th time to the city. Thank you, Alfred!

  This is the best tour we have ever taken. Alfred was truly a delight and a gem. He is a wealth of information and history buff. Taking a private tour with him provided the opportunity to chat about so much history, linger at places, and have every question answered so thoughtfully. Next time we go to York we will be seeing him. He wrote a book, BTW!

• Excellent Tour and well worth the price

  Alfred was a very knowledgeable and friendly guide. We know some Yorkshire history; he picked up on that and directed his comments and observations accordingly. We highly recommend.

  Sarah was excellent, we covered the parts of the city that were most interesting. Although the tour didn’t include entry to the Minster, we had tickets for later in the day, she gave us a history of the different structures on the site which made our visit much better. She has a great depth of knowledge about the city and shared it with relevance. We would highly recommend this tour.
