At the start of December Sophie and her best friend visited York to explore the most of the city in 48 hours. Located almost exactly halfway between London and Edinburgh, York is a city with deep Roman and Viking roots, combining its heritage with modern British lifestyle. According to Sophie, here you will feel like you’ve stepped back in time as you wonder down medieval streets surrounded by the ancient city walls, but will also be brought back to present with York’s thriving cultural scene. Read about how to save money while sightseeing and the best places to stay and eat in York on Sophie’s blog and watch the video on her adventure in the city.
