Choice Guide to York, U.K.

$12.13
 
York has so many great historic sights that you won't have time to see them all. This updated 2024 guidebook tells you enough about each of York's attractions for you to choose what will suit your tastes. The author lives in York and, since this is a print-on-demand book, can keep the book regularly updated. This 2024 edition includes York's latest developments, like the new 2023 children's Wonderlab section at York's Railway Museum and the 2022 relaunch of Clifford's Tower, as well as 2024 entry prices to York's attractions. Thanks to its local authorship, this book provides eyewitness accounts of what's inside every York attraction listed. The book is designed to be easy to dip into, one entry at a time as required.

Contents include:

  • Detailed, read-as-you-walk-round, guides to York's Cathedral and the medieval City Walls. These point out entertaining features, which otherwise you'd miss, and add quirky historical anecdotes.
  • Nine very different museums are described - covering things as diverse as time trips to re-creations of a Viking village and a Victorian street, old steam trains of every shape and size, giant dinosaurs, historic York chocolate-making, and a DIY archaeology experience for children.
  • Information on all the historic buildings which are open to visitors, including restaurants, caf?s and pubs in heritage buildings, plus York's famous old streets like Stonegate and the Shambles.
  • For anyone seeking a break from tourist crowds or admission charges, some interesting riverside and lakeside walks on York's green fringes to some of York's hidden delights.
  • Ready-made day visit programme for any visitors too busy to choose for themselves.

For every entry, a map reference matches both this book's clear street map and the standard tourist map of York. For Smart Phone / GPS navigation, a postcode is also always provided. Unlike other guidebooks, this book includes admission prices to all attractions since it is a print-on-demand book and is thus able to update information annually.

The book also covers:

  • Advice on good times and not-so-good times for visiting York.
  • Descriptions of York's best festivals.
  • Guidance on York's on-line system for choosing and booking hotels.
  • Streets in central York where there are especially many restaurants.
  • Ways to pay lower admission costs on a visit to York.

This is a substantial, in-depth guidebook, which readers choose to keep rather than resell after visiting York - you'll see comparatively few second-hand copies advertised on Amazon. In order to keep the price particularly low, illustration is limited to 60 black & white photos.
