The darkest history of York will be coming to light this April as The York Dungeon announces its brand-new, frighteningly fun and family-friendly city walking tour.

Family day trips and city sightseeing have been limited over the past year, but The York Dungeon has the perfect plan for an eerie and exciting day out as we leave lockdown. Guests will be taken on a tour of some of York’s most hair-raising historic locations by two of the Dungeon’s best-loved characters, discovering real-life tales of the city’s murky past along the way.
