Planning a day out in York with the kids?

👉 Why not give them to the Vikings for 90 minutes of...

⚔️ Adventure
😂 Laughing and getting involved
📜 Stories that pull them in
👣 A route that keeps them moving
🏰 Learning exciting Viking history

Instead of dragging them around York… you’ll be leading a band of tiny Vikings through it.

You might even enjoy it just as much as they do.

Well… this escalated quickly. 🛡️

A couple of months ago we laced up our boots, donned our finest Viking kit, and set out to see if anyone in York fancied a Viking adventure…

…and now? ⚔️

We’ve had warriors, shieldmaidens, tiny berserkers, and even the occasional confused tourist join us on the streets of Jorvik.

And honestly, we’re a bit blown away. 💨

We never expected such an incredible response so soon.

Every laugh, every booking, every person who’s come along and joined in the chaos, it genuinely means the world to us ❤️

So from the bottom of our (slightly dramatic, saga-loving) hearts…

Thank you.

We’re still a small band of Vikings trying to make our mark, but thanks to you lot, it feels like we might just make it into the sagas after all.

(And if you haven’t joined us yet… what are you waiting for? 👀)

⚔️ We were on BBC Radio York this morning… ⚔️

A few weeks ago we were in York during the Viking Festival, saw a ghost walk go past and thought:

“Why isn’t there a Viking version of this?”

So we created one.

Now we’re running Nine Realms Tours - bringing Viking York to life through stories, sagas, history and a bit of questionable comedy.

And this morning we were talking about it on BBC Radio York… which feels a bit surreal.

If you fancy something a little different, come and see what all the noise is about...

⚔️ Step back in time to Viking-age York! ⚔️

We had an incredible evening on the Nine Realms Tours "Viking Walking Tour" through the ancient streets of York – and it’s easily one of the most immersive experiences in the city today.

If you’re looking for a walking tour that’s a little different, this is it. Instead of a standard history lesson, you’re guided by two fully costumed Vikings who feel as though they’ve stepped straight out of the past and into the modern world. Their storytelling brings the city’s Norse history vividly to life, sharing tales of battle, trade, mythology, and everyday Viking life in the city once known as Jorvik.

York has plenty of walking tours, but this one truly stands out. It’s the only tour dedicated entirely to the city’s remarkable Viking heritage — and it’s engaging, entertaining, and packed with fascinating facts (and the occasional tall tale!).

Whether you’re visiting York for the first time or you’re a local wanting to see the city from a completely new perspective, this Viking adventure is an absolute must-do.

The gods were in a mood… and so was the weather.

Thor absolutely lost it over York the other day ⚡🌧️

Not a drizzle. Not a shower.

Full-on “why did I leave the house” rain.

And yet… they stayed.

A group of slightly soggy legends embracing their fate.

One guest even said:
“This feels more authentic.”

Which is bold… because historically speaking, Vikings didn’t exactly go:
“Let’s circle back when it’s dry.”

So there we were - drenched, laughing, telling sagas, questioning our life choices…
…and honestly having a brilliant time.

⚔️ Sunshine optional
👉 Sense of humour essential

Join us. We sail in all weather.

York wasn’t always this polite… 😄⚔️

Agnar’s been spotted on the Shambles this week handing out flyers - smiling, chatting… not pillaging anyone.

Which is a big change.

Because 1,000 years ago, this was Jórvík -
a loud, chaotic Viking city full of traders, warriors…
and probably at least one man arguing about a goat 🐐

Same streets. Slightly fewer axes.

Most people walk through it without ever realising what happened here…

⚔️ That’s where we come in.

We bring the sagas, gods and real Viking stories back to life right where it all happened.

📍 Tours 6pm daily
🎟️ www.ninerealmstours.co.uk⁠

If you see Agnar, feel free to take a flyer…
it’s the only Viking invitation you’ll ever get that doesn’t end in a raid 😉
