The Main Event
Choose a York river cruise and you’re choosing to see the beautiful city from a great vantage point! Frequent round trip departures from King’s Staith and Lendal Bridge give you the best chance to choose a convenient launch site for you.
On your cruise, you'll see numerous iconic city landmarks such as the stunning Gothic York Minster, Clifford's Tower—the lone remaining fortification of the castle that dominated York post-1066, the various bridges over the Ouse, the tranquil Museum Gardens, the medieval Guildhall and much more.
