Short on time but keen to see the countryside beyond York? This private half-day tour is just for your group of up to four guests, with your own local driver-guide and vehicle.

Start with around 45 minutes in Easingwold, a Georgian market town, then climb to the hilltop village of Crayke for St Cuthbert’s Church and wide views. Next come the ruins of Byland Abbey, once one of England’s great monasteries, and finally the Kilburn White Horse, cut into the hillside with a last view over the Vale of York.

The tour lasts around four hours from pick-up to drop-off, and timings can flex around your group, traffic and weather.
