Whether your family has a budding archaeologist, a Thomas the Tank Engine fan or a history buff, York has something to indulge everyone’s passions. And with many activities located in the city, it’s easy to hop from one to the other and keep everybody happy.

Or for a full day out, it’s easy to lose yourself at either York Maze or nearby Castle Howard, one of England’s finest Baroque mansions and filming location of Brideshead Revisited.
