The city of York has once again won another award proving its place as one of the UK’s top tourist destinations. This time the accolade was for ‘Best Destination in the UK for a Group Visit’.
The award was given to the city by Group Travel Organiser magazine and voted for by their readers. York beat stiff competition from popular destinations London and Blackpool.
York has won the award for the lucrative group tourism sector due to their group friendly accommodation and interesting attractions that are perfect for group visits, including Jorvik and York Minster.
Group tourism is extremely important to the area and is believed to have brought around 10,000 visitors and £25million to the area last year.
This is not the first time York has won the award and has previously held the title in both 2006 and 2009.
Yorkshire Passes are a great way for groups to see the best York attractions for a one off payment.
