Go back in time or
60 meters up

Time, 975 AD. Place, York. Do things the Viking way and travel back in time to a dramatic Viking past at the Jorvik Viking Centre. Go up 60 meters on the Yorkshire Wheel to get a fantastic view of the city and the Yorkshire countryside. Not scary enough for you? A ghost walk should do it. Hear stories about York's past residents who roam the streets of the city even today.

Hear a tale in Canterbury

Chaucer's pilgrims ended their trip at Canterbury Cathedral, but you can begin your exploration here in Canterbury's maze of winding side streets, where you might be forgiven if you think that you've stepped into an ancient past. Hear medieval adventure stories at Canterbury Tales from Chaucer's Pilgrims themselves.
