  the Jorvick viking center. I love it :) stinks though... but it's to give you a true feel for the viking period of history, lol

  Jorvick is awful. Train museum is where it's at.

  Agreed, the train museum is great, visit the shambles too, even have a walk down by the river

  If you're there for a while you may want to consider getting a York pass which gives you free entry but it's worth checking that you actually want to see all the things on offer.
  I would definitely recommend hiring a red boat, great fun if the weather is nice - Red boat website
  Also the museum gardens are good, if you bring monkey nuts the squirrels come and take them out of your hands - great for pictures.

  If it's a nice day, the walk along the walls is great. My son and I pretended we had bow and arrows and were fighting off invaders.

  Sorry have to disagree. It was the biggest disappointment in York. Very overrated IMO.
  
  Was very impressed with railway museum. Very interactive and hands on, even though I do not have ANY interest in trains

  Clifford's Tower, and there also used to be a museum next to cliffords tower, with advertising and packaging through the ages, all brands of household cleaning products, food and drink containers etc, - also good for realising how much chocolate bars have shrunk over the years ;)

  I was there over the Bank Holiday weekend.... DON'T queue for an hour for Betty's Tea Rooms... the service is rubbish! Supposed traditional values but they put my side plate on my right and when the drinks arrived (even though the 4 of us had the same over expensive coffee) they served the men 1st!

  There's not much to be fair try Betty's tea rooms and the boat ride, also the nightlife is much better with the pitcher and pano by the river
