Absolutely stunning building to visit. The architecture and craftsmanship is awe inspiring. We paid to walk to the top of the tower and the views from the top are incredible. It’s definitely not for someone who struggles with mobility issues.

Great place to visit. Use the bus or walk around as parking can be a problem.. visited the Railway museum which was interested. Rather costly to visit the Minster cathedral and other areas. We walked the wall that surrounds the city. York is very busy area in August. My husband went to the Ebor festival (horse racing) which was good.

Having been so disappointed by the lack of information at Canterbury we were so impressed with what you can learn from a visit around the Minster. First revisit for many years. Great recovery from the road that used to go alongside the building. The public realm is now excellent. Well worth a visit. Allow 2 hours

If you love, or at least like, history and architecture the Minster is not to be missed. We didn't mind paying L16 to see and help preserve such a historical place. There are free guided tours by volunteers. Our guide, Mark, obviously loved sharing his knowledge of the Minster as we went over the hour the tour was supposed to take. It is amazing and awe-inspiring to take in all the details of the stained-glass windows, the ceilings and carvings throughout the church. The history of its construction and the repairs required after the three fires was very interesting.

Went to the minster for Evensong after the Mothers' Union Annual Gathering meeting. What an amazing place. The cathedral is so well kept and presented. Well worth a visit. It was an honour to be a part of worship in such a spectacular place.

York Minster is definitely worth a visit. Participate in a free guided tour to really understand the history and significance. As the largest gothic cathedral in Northern Europe it should not be missed. The gift shop was very good as well.

I left the car at the park and ride and took the bus into York. It stopped not far from the minster. There was a lot to see and I had to walk round very slowly to see everything and there was a guide book, which I bought. They offer guided tours, but I didn't have the time to join one. If you are ever in York, this one place not to be missed.

What an experience to visit the York Minster. Priced at £15 an adult initially it seems quite expensive but the reward is fantastic as you really do feel blown away by the beauty and serenity of the building. Well worth a visit.

A very nice cathedral and well worth a visit BUT I was not overwhelmed. I'd just visited Lincoln Cathedral several days before and I felt York Minster paled in comparison. I will say that the carving is spectacular and well worth close up observation. Lovely town, Lovely cathedral.

What an awe inspiring building - whilst it's vast the detail around the minster is incredible. We spent an enjoyable couple of hours wandering around but that did include joining one of the free tours which we would thoroughly recommend - there are so many things that we would have missed if we hadn't joined the tour. Our tour guide, Clive Jackson, was so knowledgable and an inspiration given he retired as a school teacher and became a guide and has now been guiding visitors for more than 30 years ! I can't recommend the minster enough for anyone visiting York.
