Tour overview

Travel back to Viking York on a private guided walk filled with captivating stories, historic streets and fascinating tales of the city’s Norse past.

Description

Walk the streets of the real Jorvik.
In 866 AD, the Great Heathen Army captured York, transforming an Anglo-Saxon settlement into a thriving, international Viking capital. On this deeply researched walking tour, we navigate the historic alleys to uncover the incredible 200-year legacy of Norse rule.

Forget the horned helmets and Hollywood tropes. Your expert guide will bring the authentic Viking Age to life, sharing the stories of fierce kings, master craftsmen, global traders, and everyday families who built a commercial empire in the north of England.

If you want a genuine, gripping, and fact-checked exploration of York’s Viking heritage, this is your journey.
