Attractions to excite and thrill as you take a journey on the City Sightseeing red bus tour of York

Be amazed by its priceless display of intricate medieval stained glass or climb the 275 steps to the top of the central tower. Your journey through York will excite and thrill your senses as you arrive at each stop with a new attraction to explore. Perhaps you could take the bus to visit Clifford’s Tower for a stunning view of the historic city and then take a short walk to the Jorvik Viking Centre or if you’re feeling brave you can enter the York Dungeons which will revisit gruesome historic events and bring them back to life. Make your getaway to York as relaxing or eventful as you like - anything is possible with our grand open top sightseeing buses showing you the way.
From outstanding educational museums such as the National Railway Museum to a gentle cruise along the River Ouse, York offers plenty of things to do catering for all ages and interests to keep you entertained throughout your stay.
If shopping is more your thing why not hop off the tour bus and take advantage of the fantastic opportunity to browse independent boutiques, designer labels and fashionable high street names.
