Car hire in York

The city of York is a small walled historic area which can be confusing due to the medieval streetplan. The small lanes that are within it are gate-tangible evidence of the viking years.

The city of York lies in the heart of Yourkshire and has the rivers Ouse & Foss running through it. For nearly 2000 years York has been the capital of the north, and it played a central role in British history under the Romans, Saxons and Vikings. It's a great city in which to amble through the spectacular Gothic cathedral, medieval city walls, tangle of historic streets and glut of teashops and pubs.

This city attracts millions of tourists every year but it's too old, too impressive and too convinced of its own importance to be overwhelmed by mere tourists. The city walls are among the most impressive surviving medieval fortifications in Europe - encompass a thriving, fascinating centre.
