Full job description

We're looking for an enthusiastic, personable Tour Guide to bring the history and hidden stories of York to life for visitors from all over the world. York is one of the UK's most historic cities — from Roman roots and Viking heritage to medieval streets and Georgian architecture — and we want someone who can share that story with warmth, confidence, and a bit of showmanship.

You'll be trained on a specific tour route and script, so previous experience as a tour guide isn't essential — what matters most is your ability to engage an audience, think on your feet, and represent our company brilliantly.

Tours may include (subject to final confirmation):

Walking tours of York's historic city centre and the Shambles
York Minster and surrounding cathedral quarter
City walls and Roman/medieval history tours
Ghost walks and York's "most haunted" folklore tours
Viking and Jorvik heritage tours
Harry Potter Themed Tours

What You'll Be Doing

Delivering engaging, informative, and entertaining tours to groups of visitors
Learning and confidently presenting an assigned tour route, script, and key historical content
Adapting your delivery for different audiences (families, international visitors, school groups, etc.)
Managing group logistics — timings, safety, weather contingencies, and accessibility needs
Answering visitor questions and offering local recommendations
Representing the company professionally at all times, including appearance and punctuality
Collecting feedback and helping improve the tour experience

What We're Looking For

Excellent communication and public speaking skills
A genuine interest in history, storytelling, and York's heritage
Confidence leading groups of strangers, indoors and outdoors, in all weather
Reliability, punctuality, and a strong sense of responsibility for visitor safety
Comfortable walking/standing for extended periods
A friendly, approachable, and adaptable personality
Previous customer-facing, hospitality, acting, teaching, or guiding experience is a plus but not required
Full training on the specific tour content will be provided

What We Offer

Full training on your assigned tour route and content
Ongoing support and opportunities to learn additional tours over time
Flexible scheduling (adjust as applicable)
A fun, sociable working environment in one of the UK's most beautiful cities
Tips and commission and other incentives on top of your standard rate.

Job Types: Full-time, Part-time

Pay: £25.00-£27.50 per hour

Benefits:

Flexitime

Application question(s):

Do you have the legal right to work in the UK? If you hold a visa, does it allow you to work on a self-employed basis?
Do you live in York?

Language:

French fluently (preferred)
English fluently (preferred)
German fluently (required)
