This tour was one of the highlights of our holiday. Patrick and his lovely wife Claire were so entertaining and they made the historic stories really fun and memorable. It was great to get involved too. A lovely walk around some of the streets of beautiful York. Many thanks for a super afternoon.

Hi Anne thank you very much for the kind review, kind regards Patrick
Patrick was Brilliant!! Enthusiastic, knowledgeable, got us engaged and involved right from the start and the tour flew by!!! Would recommend. Thank you
Thank you for your review, it was great having you on the tour.
What a fantastic tour. Went with 4 friends and it cannot be beat for fun and insights. To be honest other tours we passed on our time-travelling trip round York looked dull by comparison. This one has gags, costumes, interaction, props, quizzes, and a brilliant buzz to it. Loved the energy but also the really detailed and deep history too.
Glad you and your brother enjoyed your 60th birthday - it was great having you all on the tour!
Patrick and (Sad) Sally 🤫 were amazing. We had such fun, but mixed with amazing knowledge & history of the wonderful city of York. Would highly recommend. Book it you will not be disappointed.

The Time Traveller and his assistant were entertaining, full of enthusiasm and very knowledgeable, bringing to life the history of York with the use of fun props and team competition. We all finished with a big smile on our faces!
We are glad you had a good time, thank you for coming on our tour, the Time Traveller and his assistant!
A great tour through the history of York, with snippets of history through the ages! Really enjoyed getting to know bits of history around the city centre with some surprises along the way
