This exclusive, personalised walking tour of Viking York brings the city’s Norse past to life. As you move through the streets and along ancient lanes, you’ll hear the stories of the most famous Vikings — Ragnar, Ivar the Boneless, Erik Bloodaxe and Harald Hardrada — and learn why York became such an important Viking city and the setting for so many battles.
Along the way, your guide will explain key Viking connections across York and place the dramatic tales into the city’s wider history. The experience is private and paced to you, so you can explore the sites and stories that interest you most. You may also choose to include a stop at an authentic Viking-themed bar in York, located on the same site as the legendary Viking Kings of York, for a different way to soak up the atmosphere.
