This is the perfect destination for primary and secondary school groups wishing to study history and English heritage.

In the afternoon find out more about the Industrial Revolution and the age of the train at the National Railway Museum. In the evening relax at the Megabowl 10-pin bowling centre.

Day 3: A spooky tour of York's dungeon provides some great stories of York's illustrious history and an afternoon exploring the Roman remains under the city helps pupils to understand more about early York settlements.
