Overview
Includes an exclusive FREE book written by your guide! Step into the world of Westeros on our Winterfell: A Game of Thrones Fan Tour of York, our latest tour following over 15 years of award winning history tours of York. Explore York’s dramatic history through the lens of Game of Thrones, from the freezing edge of the Roman Empire — the real “Winterfell” — to the Wars of the Roses, the true inspiration for the clash of rival houses. Discover the echoes of Britain’s bloodiest battle in the “Battle of the Bastards,” and see how York’s towers, walls, and snickelways shaped the world of Jon Snow, Cersei, and Tyrion. Along the way, your guide brings York’s history to life with vivid parallels between fact and fantasy. Please note young children under 5 are free, just let us know at time of booking
