Step by Step

Immerse yourself in York's Viking and Norman past as you explore its cobbled streets and centuries-old monuments from an open-top bus with 360° views. The hop-on hop-off service gives you total flexibility: hop on and off at any of the 14 stops, strategically placed alongside the city's main points of interest.

Start your adventure at Exhibition Square, where you'll hear about the Roman foundation of Eboracum before heading into the medieval heart of the city. Make your first stop at York Minster, England's largest Gothic cathedral, and marvel at its stained glass windows; the bus will pick you up when you decide to continue.

The next stage will take you to Clifford's Tower, a Norman relic from 1068, and then through Fishergate, one of the six barbicans that defended the city. Each commentary on the audio guide will enlighten you on battles, banquets and the legends that made York a strategic enclave in British history.

Sit on the upper deck to enjoy the sunshine as you walk through the 14th century Fishergate Bar, stroll along the River Ouse and breathe in the fresh air in the York Museum Gardens. The bus will take you back to Exhibition Square or continue on to other stops: Station York, Walmgate Bar, Gillygate... The choice is yours.

And to complete your day, take advantage of the discounts included in your ticket: board the York Boat to see the city from the water, or try the spooky York Dungeons at a special price. In 24 hours you can experience York's history in a unique and fun way.
