Shared York Walking Tour – Hidden Gems & History

Shared tour with Dave. Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic and clearly enjoys his role as a guide. He tries to make it fit to the needs of the group, depending on how in depth you want it. We had a larger group than normal, which made it more difficult for him to do this . We really enjoyed, learnt a lot we wouldn't have done from a book, but were ready to finish after 2.5 hours so dropped off then , although others were happy to continue. We had already toured the city walls the day before, so missed this bit out. Dave certainly wasn't offended and was happy for people to leave when they wanted without issue

Have is incredibly passionate about giving you the most in depth tour possible. Dave will take as long as you you want the tour to last and has no qualms about time so long as it meets your expectation. He is incredibly knowledgeable and adds humour in just the right amounts. Book and you won’t be disappointed.

Dave is an amazing guide. Funny, kind, witty, and, most importantly, a walking encyclopedia of information about a fascinating city. If possible he will cheerfully spend extra time at locations that you have a special interest in. Absolutely recommend his tour!

I wanted to give a good review bc I generally love tours. Unfortunately this tour was not the best. The guide was knowledgeable and friendly but difficult to understand at times. His accent yes but also his way of telling the history was a bit disjointed. He tired out quickly and complained about other tour guides and the minster guide situation. I would have preferred a different guide.

Overall it was enlightening and informative, however we booked the early morning tour as it was a Saturday and York was to be extremely busy. This Tour was cancelled and the email from Trip Advisor to advise us of this went to Spam so we did not see until we arrived at the meeting place accordingly. We tried to contact Trip Advisor to no avail and turned up for the 1pm Tour the same day - York by then was heaving with people so the Tour was abbreviated to suit and was a larger Group than both the Guide and we preferred.

Dave was a great guide and a wealth of knowledge. He knows his history of York and England. I'm so glad we booked this tour.

Dave was extremely informative & interesting providing a fantastic tour with his extensive knowledge and good humour in addition.

Dave is one of the most knowledgeable people I've yet to meet - what he didn't know about York (and the rest of the UK it seemed!) and it's history probably isn't worth knowing! He adapted the walk to what we wanted to see, and around our time constraints. Well worth the money.

Dave (Dave Haw Tours) was amazing tour guide. He was knowledgeable, friendly, flexible and humorous - the perfect tour guide

Dave was a great guide. We had a morning tour but enjoyed it so much we stayed into the next tour he had for the afternoon. He had a easy manner and was very knowledgeable. He also introduced us to many people at many places along the tour allowing us to ask questions of people that worked or volunteered at the sights. Highly recommended would take again.
