Best 10 things to do in York on a day trip to York England 

Hi guys this video is all about some of the top things you can on a day trip to York. For even more detail check out the full guide I did on my blog here www.huesofdelahaye.com/day-trip-to-york/

"Buy the pie when you see the pie". Words of wisdom! Incredibly enjoyable vlog and I booked my Jorvik tickets now thanks to you. And oh, my God, the fudge shop! 😍

Thanks for sharing your trip to York, I’m going next month and now have a better idea of what I’ll get up to! You’ve got such a lovely smile btw😊

Wow York is so beautiful can’t wait to visit it

Pleased that you enjoyed York - it's a fine City, only 35 miles from my home. I used to work there and a great time to visit is early Autumn when the days are still warm(ish), the trees are starting to change colour and the big influx of tourists has subsided. One free thing in York is the National Railway Museum and is huge, quite close to the railway station - maybe 5 or 6 minutes walk.

Nice video. Never knew about the city pass so thank you so much for sharing 👍

Great vid! Planning to do a day trip soon. The York pass sounds like a great idea. Thanks

I’ve never consider visiting York before but it looks so cool especially walking the wall and visiting Shambles market. Thanks for sharing your vid and experience of York!

Gotta love my hometown !!! Great video !!!!!

Loved it, and thanks for all the information. Great video.👍😊🇨🇮

So happy seeing your video it really made me enjoyed the city of York

Great guide thanks ..

York looks beautiful. My husband and I are going this summer so this video was very helpful ♡

Just got back from York. Amazing place to visit for a city break.

We enjoyed the vlog and it was very helpful thanks 🙂 x

Great video. Really enjoyed. Thank you.

Thanks for the great intro to York. Now I really want to travel there.

Very nice video :) Thank you

i so enjoyed your video of York ...... you have a wonderful personality !!!

very beautiful video.. thanks for sharing such a high quality video with us... 🙏🙏 A new subscriber from Iran

Lovely video!

Lovely vid, I’ve booked to go there for a week. Nice to see places I can go too😊

Thanks for sharing this video. Very Beautiful York, can't wait to visit Shambles.

Great lovely video! Well done 👏😎

I am so pleased that you have done a proper video of York, there is so much there more than London in many ways and so much cheaper too, people who visit go to London and say that they have seen England, but they really haven't begun to scratch the surface, York and the North of England, Scotland and Wales have far more to offer than London at a fraction of the cost and often for free. The train that you saw at the end of the video leaves York and travels to Carlisle going through North Yorkshire and the award winning North Yorkshire scenery, it takes a full day but is a must do if you are staying for a few weeks (it has to be booked in advance) but you will get to see parts of the country that you otherwise would miss and some that can only be seen/experienced by rail, so we'll worth finding out more about.

People always think of New York when someone say York, Glad someone finally Recognises The original York :) Good video:)

Wow York looks so pretty!

beautiful, informative

Loved this😍Going for a short break with my 8 year old daughter soon and this has really helped and made us get excitwd😊. We will also make sure to take yoir advice 'buy the pie when you see the pie" 😂😂😂 Xxx

Good tips, especially about booking York Minster in advance. I’m planning two days there in December and I’m hoping there will be Christmas markets.

Love the video I'm going to York in 2024

Thankyou

thank you, loved the video! No need for club music or sad pop music, though! I skip those bits unfortunately. I think that's something that suits gen z and americans! The natural ambience is more than enough or even classical music - anything that suits York.

I went to the city centre on my bday btw I live in York and I bought so much stuff😍

England is so beautiful country.

Great video .. my wife and I are planning a mini break to York, so learning about the York Pass was very useful. Just one thing though, there is no letter i in the middle of The Minster Regards from Whitley Bay

Thanks for this. I love the walls, but so much more of course. Jórvík (most likely) meant 'deep inlet', just like in Gjøvik, Oppland, Norway. Yur-veek, Yuh-veek. Vik (veek) is also of course, the root of Vikings. Men from the inlets, or bays, mainly around Vestfold (west of the Olsofjord), Norway but also other areas and countries of course as well, including Denmark and Sweden. The Cawood Sword, found south of York is probably from a workshop in eastern Norway, not very far from Gjøvik, though these are technically, just barely post-Viking Age as they are likely early 1100s CE, which makes sense considering their quality culminating at the end of that age. York is virtually the 'Viking Capital City' according to Sir Tony Robinson and I agree. As an English king said in not too distant times, the history of York is the history of England. You can see virtual clones of Norwegians and also Danes, in York, but all through Yorkshire, and I see they come from Lincolnshire and Leicestershire as well, where the Great Heathen Army mostly settled. Voices, faces, eyes, hair, skin, skyles/preferences/fashions, movement & gait, they are around if you are aware and observant, much more interesting than even the historical Jórvík Viking Centre. My great, great grandfather was born in York (then came to York, Ontario, later Toronto) and the family had a China manufactory on Stonegate (Stein Gata, just like in Norway, or Stone Street). Many of our Canadian branch have always had at least some uncanny Norwegian thread or threads running through out lives and I'm no exception, feeling drawn to both York (more than once) and eastern, southern and also western Norway, more than once. It is in our mix, to varying degrees as 23andme has confirmed. I'm 6'4" unlike most (any?) other relatives of mine on either side of the pond. I felt more normal height and even frame/build in Norway and Denmark. The Anglian Tower and also St Olave's church are also worth a look.

I'm going York for my wife's birthday next month 👍

Hello ma, this is a nice video. So happy I came across your video. Please, how do I go about the house hunt I'm in Oakdale York, England. And how much is the estimate for rent? It's really important for me as I will be coming there soon... Thank you.

Hi ❤ your video

Absolutely fantastic video. :-) Thank you SO much. :-) Please only next time check the volume of the music between sections. I almost fell on the floor from my chair when the *WAY* too loud music attacked me. But, I repeat, the video and your way of presenting everything is extremely enjoyable (when you are TALKING - without that awful noise - using your beautiful voice). :-)

Nice video from someone who visits York regularly surprised York castle museum and railway museum didn't get a mention but very good

To get the most out of your visit to York I would like to recommend a free walking tour with the Association of Voluntary Guides, the AVG. Check us out on line. These two hour tours are completely free with no tips or commercial recommendations. The tours provide a background of York’s history and how the buildings fit into the story. You may even have a few laughs on the way round As well as meeting other visitors.

thank you for the video, if i get the york pass...do i still have to book tickets for places to visit?

You can go into The Minster for free if you attend Evensong.

York is a beautiful place, just keep away on race days and Saturdays. Loads of hen parties and the likes.

Looks amazing. Brilliant video. The music ruined it though.

Seems ironic to me ,given all history of York , Roman , viking ,that shops have sprung up ,about a fantasy, figure Harry Potter ,now I liked Harry Potter books ,but against the real history of York .? .

To any men watching - go to the railway museum. Second to none and close by.

It is ‘The Minster’ not ‘The Minister’.

York is beautiful place . Much better than London.

TURN THE MUSIC DOWN!!!!!
