The lake is nice, but I don't feel like it's an activity that adds much to the experience in York.

York City Cruise

During this 1-hour cruise, you'll discover the historic center of York while sailing on the River Ouse. The captain of the boat will give you a live commentary in English about the many landmarks you'll see during the tour, such as the York Minster, the Guildhall and Clifford Tower, the last remnant of the ancient castle of York.

From the boat's panoramic deck, you'll also enjoy a view of the towers of York Minster, one of the most outstanding Gothic churches in Northern England. The tour will end at the same pier from which you boarded the boat.
