Visiting North Yorkshire works to promote the County of North Yorkshire, showcasing the great and the good on a global stage, via this website, social media and in print with an annual publication, stocked in Tourist Information Centres across the country and distributed around the world.

We believe that North Yorkshire is the most stunning, awe-inspiring, amazing and welcoming County in England and work towards making it the Number One tourist destination in the United Kingdom.

For those either currently visiting or intending to visit, we aim to be an excellent resource, with detailed listings for accommodation, places to eat and drink and things to see and do.

We don't leave it there - whilst on holiday you could need a dentist, doctor, vet or optician. We offer details of where to find some of these too. In addition we provide weather information, transport options and even places you can recharge an electric vehicle.

The team behind Visiting North Yorkshire has 8 years experience promoting tourism in North Yorkshire, designing and maintaining dynamic websites, running successful and influential social media channels and producing & distributing quality tourism guides. In addition to this they have 25 years experience in the IT industry, giving them a complete sphere of expertise in online working - not only are they extremely proficient with "front end" technology that engages with the customer (websites, social media), but also the background infrastructure that supports and operates it. That expertise is available to draw on for Visiting North Yorkshire members, should they require technical advice or support.

Visitors are being urged by the government to keep away from beaches and other holiday destinations in the UK to limit the spread of coronavirus, after record-numbers descended upon some tourist spots over the weekend of 20-22 March 2020.

If you have existing bookings with accommodation providers in North Yorkshire please contact them ahead of your visit and get an update regarding the situation. Please don't automatically cancel any reservations, but consider re-booking at a later date instead.

We understand how difficult the lockdown situation was for all concerned in the tourism industry. One cancellation didn't stop there - it had a knock-on effect that was potentially devastating.
