Memorable Hull Minster tower tour - What a fantastic tour we experienced at Hull Minster! Jon and Don are a great team with joint knowledge on Hull history, the influences and changes in the Church and the Reigns throughout its existence. Don is a bell ringer so he has specific expertise on the process and history and Jon does a great talk at the top. You can see 360 degrees of magnificent view and even send a postcard! The narrow sets of stone steps can be challenging but they are very hot on health and safety. Well worth the effort! Not to miss for any visitors to Hull Thanks a lot Jon and Don!

The Bell Tower Tour of Hull Minster - Fabulous information and tour with Jon. Highly recommended from history and bellringing info. The largest bell tour in the UK. Lovely local touch to know they've even played nursery rhymes on the bells! You can even send your written & stamped postcard from here ....

An excellent behind-the the scenes tour of the wonderful church clock tower. - The tour encompassed history of the Minster; views of Hull from the top of the clock tower and from the main church roof and on the way an explanation of the bell ringing procedures and protocols. We also saw the clock mechanism at the chiming of the hour. John and Rob, our guides were excellent hosts who looked after us and informed us for the duration, which was nearly an hour and a half. The spiral staircases are narrow and steep but worth the effort. A fabulous behind the scenes visit to one the most notable parish churches in the country.

Hull Minster Tower tour - Thoroughly enjoyed this tour. John (Verger) who guided the tour was patient and knowledgeable, and his love of Hull and the Minster was clearly evident. My son (12) and I learnt lots of interesting facts and the view at the top of the building was incredible. We also saw the workings of the bells and the clock, and walking up and down the ancient stone steps inside the tower was certainly an experience. The tour was great value for money, and the money goes on to support the running cost of the building. I’d highly recommend the tour as it was definitely one of the highlights of our family trip to Hull.
