After exploring the cathedral, everyone enjoyed a lively walk through The Shambles, York’s famous medieval street. Students took in the quirky shops and bustling crowds, making memories and experiencing the unique charm of York’s old town. This part of the trip was a fantastic mix of history, sightseeing, and fun with friends.
