Beyond the tale of gunpowder, treason, and plot, this walking tour of York delves into the comprehensive story of Guy Fawkes.

Discover his family history in York, his upbringing influenced by Protestantism, and his later conversion to recusant Catholicism.

Tour Highlights:

  • This tour provides a complete narrative of one of York’s most famous figures, while also showcasing beautiful buildings, including the church where Guy Fawkes and his sisters were christened.
  • You’ll also visit some lesser-known spots within the city that even locals might not be aware of.
  • In addition to Guy Fawkes, the tour covers notable figures such as Kings Henry VIII, James I, and Charles I, William Etty RA, and St. Margaret Clitherow.
  • Stay with the tour until the end, where Vicki will share an incredible coincidence involving Guy Fawkes and her own recovery journey in a homeless hostel, a story that will leave you with goosebumps.

Meet your guide

Tour guide Vicki’s fascination with Guy Fawkes began in 2009, a passion that ultimately inspired her to move to the city.

She skillfully intertwines her personal journey of being diagnosed with stage 4b cancer, undergoing treatment, and achieving remission with the story of his life.

This can vary from tour to tour, but Invisible Cities prefer to have tours starting with three customers. The maximum capacity is usually 20 or 25.

Is your group bigger? Don’t panic. They can accommodate any size, if you have more than 25 people they will simply split your group between several guides at no added cost to you!

The tours delivered by Invisible Cities take you on a unique route, but most of them are wheel-chair accessible.

They can also adapt their tours to your group and guests, so everyone can enjoy them!

No! Rain or shine, your tour will go ahead, unless there is a weather warning and you have been advised to stay inside (which has happened in Scotland before!)
