Ti dirigerai nella Vale of York, imparando a conoscere la vita nello Yorkshire mentre attraversi i villaggi di Strensall, lo sceriffo Hutton e Hovingham. La prima fermata è nel tradizionale villaggio del Parco Nazionale di Hutton-le-Hole, dove puoi passeggiare tra le tradizionali case in pietra e le pecore che vagano sulla terra comune del villaggio, o semplicemente fare una piacevole birra dello Yorkshire in uno dei caffè - la scelta è tua!
Ci dirigiamo verso i North York Moors per alcune soste fotografiche, passando per il Lion Inn del XVI secolo su Blakey Ridge (il punto più alto dei Mori) e Ralph's Cross, quindi attraverso i pittoreschi e pittoreschi villaggi dello Yorkshire che conducono a Whitby. All'arrivo a Whitby, sentirai storie sulla storia della città di mare e la tua guida ti parlerà dei principali luoghi di interesse che potresti voler visitare.
Avrai due ore e mezza di tempo libero a Whitby (due ore se prendi l'opzione treno a vapore), con opzioni per visitare la nuova attrazione di Whitby, The Endeavour Experience (una delle sole due repliche a grandezza naturale di HM Bark Endeavour esistenti ), il Captain Cook Museum, fai un giro in barca replica in scala Bark Endeavour intorno al porto, visualizza Whitby Abbey (ispirazione per i libri di Dracula) o semplicemente esplora i negozi e il mercato della città di mare e sperimenta Fish & Chips dal famoso Magpie Café - la scelta è tua!
Se preferisci trascorrere un po 'meno tempo a Whitby e cogliere l'opportunità di viaggiare in treno a vapore sulla North Yorkshire Moors Railway a una tariffa speciale scontata, hai la possibilità di salire a bordo del treno delle 14:00 da Whitby per la brughiera di 45 minuti viaggio in treno attraverso Grosmont fino a Goathland (stazione di Hogsmeade nei film di Harry Potter), dove ti unirai nuovamente al Minicoach. Questa opzione è pagata in loco il giorno senza prenotazione anticipata.
Raggiungiamo la stazione di Goathland in tempo per vedere gli altri passeggeri arrivare in treno a vapore, quindi conoscere "Hogsmeade", prima di esplorare il villaggio immaginario da cartolina di "Aidensfield" nella serie televisiva Heartbeat e magari prendere un gelato dal negozio del villaggio.
Lasciamo Goathland e facciamo un altro paio di soste fotografiche mentre apprendi la storia dietro la misteriosa piramide RAF Fylingdales su Snod Hill e il Hole of Horcum.
Torniamo verso York attraverso le Howardian Hills con vista panoramica su Castle Howard.

It was a great trip! We were very comfortable with Vince as a guide. Wonderful views over the moors, a nice visit to Whitby, and good restaurant recommendations! And a memorable railroad ride to Goathland / Aidensield in the end.
Thank you very much, Triin, for taking the time to leave a review. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the North York Moors, your visit to Whitby, and the memorable journey on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway to Goathland, famous as Aidensfield in Heartbeat. We did notice that you mentioned Vince as your guide. We believe you may have accidentally mixed us up with another tour operator, as none of our driver-guides are called Vince. We completely understand how easy it is to do after a busy trip, but if this review was intended for another company, you may wish to update it so they receive the recognition they deserve. If, however, you travelled with Best of Britain – Yorkshire Day Tours, we are very grateful that you chose to spend the day with us and hope to welcome you back to Yorkshire again in the future. Kind regards, Lucy Best of Britain – Yorkshire Day Tours
