Excellent pub crawl with guide Joel Dean. He manager to bring the different visited pubs “a live” with interesting stories about each of them. We went through narrow streets learning something about the history and historical persons connected with them. So two hours well spent in good company. And we had a couple of beers as well, ofcourse.

A nice way to kick off a trip to York: a walking tour of the city centre, taking in some of its most historic and interesting pubs. Our guide had lots of information about everywhere we went!

Mike was an excellent guide. We went to some incredible pubs and learned a lot along the way! I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to see the city in a different way.

Cannot rate this tour highly enough! Met Mike outside the Punch Bowl at 14;00 for a 3hr , 7 pub tour. Also included historical facts of buildings & stories between pubs. The time flew by! Knowledgeable but more importantly humorous,& willing to amend itinerary as we went along. Good value for money. Gave us a invaluable insight into the history of York and also which pubs to revisit. Such a great way, on the 1st day of a 3 night visit to plan the rest of our stay Highly re recommended.
