We weren’t kidding when we said that York has plenty of history to go round, and while the Vikings may have come over here from Scandinavia, they more than made their mark on British shores, with York being a particularly intriguing site for Anglo Saxon artefacts and history in general. Thanks to the hard work of archaeologists and general Viking fans, the Jorvik Viking Centre now stands as a mock-up Viking City – with nothing spared with regard to the whole experience. If horned helmets, sieges and massive feasts tickle your fancy, grab yourself a York Pass or head on over to the Jorvik Centre with £10.25 in hand per adult.
