Rich B a treasure - We had a fantastic tour with Rich B. He is a York man and it shows in his knowledge ofvl the city. Pay him whatever it takes to keep him; he is a treasure.

There can Be only 1 Tour - Joining the Golden tours bus tour was an easy choice.. the first bus rolled up, and the driver on the Blue bus was welcoming, friendly, charming and funny. All of us in our group of 7 were later very pleased with our choice. As well as being informative, Rich B, our driver host and tour guide continued to be funny entertaining and informative, with that dry Yorkshire humour. Would highly recommend not just Golden Tours, but Rich B as well. They said they wanted us to have a good time, and we did. Also I felt that it mattered to him. I happened to see him the next day and he recognised me and waved. Its these small things that give you a personal touch that shows you are excellent at your job. Thanks for a great experience.

Russell - Yorkshire’s Peter Kay - What a brilliant way to see and learn about the history of York. Russell was our driver and he kept us informed and amused throughout the tour. His commentary led us from Vikings to Dick Turpin and Julian Clary’s association with the City 😂

Emma saves the day!!!! - A fairly blah tour, the canned audio was sparce at beat, and dreadful when you could hear it...nearly got off. Then Emma saved the day!!!! Her profound and intricate knowledge of her beautiful city was only hindered by the amount of time we had with her. She could have talked for days, and would gladly listen
