‘Choice Guide to York, UK’, a 2019 Great Britain travel guidebook (Choice Guides to Yorkshire)
York has so many great historic sights that you won’t have time to see them all. This 2020 guidebook tells you enough about each of York’s attractions for you to choose what will suit your tastes. The author lives in York, writes from eyewitness experience, and keeps the book annually updated.
Detailed, read-as-you-walk-round, guides to York’s cathedral and the City Walls. These point out entertaining features, which otherwise you’d miss, and add quirky historical anecdotes.
Eleven very different museums are described, including two just outside York.
Descriptions for York’s best festivals.
Walks on York’s green outer fringes and a bus trip to a stately home in nearby countryside.
Guidance on York’s on-line system for choosing and booking hotels.
Advice on good times and not-so-good times for visiting York.
Ready-made day visit programme for any visitors too busy to choose for themselves.
For each entry, the map reference matches both this book’s clear street map and the standard tourist map of York. For Smart Phone / GPS navigation, a postcode is also always provided. Unlike other guidebooks, this book includes admission prices to all attractions since it is a print-on-demand book and is thus able to update information annually.
Thanks to its local authorship, this book provides eyewitness accounts of what’s inside every York attraction listed. This includes York’s more recent attractions like the chocolate industry heritage centre, the German Christmas shop in Stonegate, the Lord Mayor’s residence, and the remodelled Jorvik Viking Centre after it reopened following closure from flood damage.
This is a substantial, 170 page book which readers choose to keep rather than resell after visiting York – you’ll see comparatively few secondhand copies advertised on Amazon. In order to contain the price of such a large, informative book, illustration is limited to 60 black & white photos.
EXPANDED VERSION OF THIS BOOK The full text of the ‘Choice Guide to York’ is also available within a much larger Kindle e-book, ‘Choice Visits in Yorkshire and York’. This also includes very many day trips from York to the Yorkshire Dales, Moors, Wolds and Coast, plus extra background information on history, culture, festivals and seasonal Yorkshire events. Castles, stately homes, walks among Dales crags and waterfalls and along the cliffs of the Yorkshire Coast, beaches and boat trips on the North Sea – they're all in this very large Kindle book and selected for accessibility by public transport. If you are coming from overseas or are visiting York for more than a couple of days, it makes sense to view the large free sample of the expanded book on: www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B007P269ZQ
