Private driven tours from York
A public tour will usually be the cheapest way to see Yorkshire. A private tour gives you something very different. Your own vehicle, your own group and a day built around you. Highwayman Tours sits between the two: genuinely private touring at a price far below the typical private-tour cost.

More than the ticket price
Public and private tours are not really the same product. The difference is not simply how much you pay. It is how the entire day works.
The vehicle is exclusively for your group of up to four guests. Nobody else joins your booking.
Collection from your York-area accommodation and return after the tour are included.
Travel with someone who knows York, Yorkshire and the route, rather than simply being transported between stops.
Stay longer somewhere you love, adapt around the weather or change the pace when the day calls for it.
No waiting for a large group to return and no being rushed because everybody else is ready to leave.
No unfamiliar rural roads, navigation, parking problems or spending your Yorkshire day concentrating on driving.
A full eight-hour Highwayman Tours day is £408.10 for your entire private group of up to four guests, including the FareHarbor booking fee, York-area pick-up and return. That is £102.03 per person when four guests share.
