Excellent guides - Visited York today with my mother and used this tour bus company, they were very helpful and full of information and the views were great! Special mention to Keith our guide . He was knowledgeable, friendly polite and was so funny, great banter! The only thing we were disappointed with was the fact we had so much to do in york we couldn't stay on the tour bus all day listening to him! Highly recommend!! Love from the 2 mackems :)

Fabulous - We couldn't recommend this tour highly enough. From buying the tickets right through to the whole tour. The bus driver/tour guide, Keith, was fabulous. Very informative and very funny. Shame about his taste in football teams but there you go, proves nobody is perfect 😄

York golden tour - brilliant - The bus was comfortable and the views great! We were lucky to have Keith as our driver. He is a Yorkie and brought everything to life with his brilliant non-stop commentary. Tickets valid for next day also so great value although sadly no Keith that day!

Hop on Hop off Bus Tour - York - We were so grateful for James with Golden Tours. He greeted us with a warm welcome and helped us out. We were very disappointed when we saw online that we could NOT take our baby on the bus. (it says you can't take 4 and under onto the bus) When we spoke to James he told us that was not the case and booked us tickets right away! We were so happy and couldn't have asked for a better experience in York. The hop in hop off bus tour is the best way to see everything. Thank you to James and the team for making our visit memorable.

Memorable London Tour with Golden - We had a very good guide named Emma. She explained each and every London landmark in detail and she kept us entertained with her good sense of humor. We would recommend Golden Tours to people visiting London. Thanks and best wishes ❤️

Should be 5 stars - Prior to visiting York we were going to book our tickets on line. The website is very confusing as tickets can only be purchased for 5 years upwards. When we spoke to a very pleasant representative called James he reassured us we could go on with the baby. So we bought our tickets from him. If we had not spoken to James we would have missed out on the tour and you would have lost our business.
