Overview
We visited the Jorvik Viking Centre using my son's Max Card. I pre-booked our time slot prior to our visit. The website contains lots of accessibility information and a visual story. My son is Autistic so this was really useful. We arrived early for our timeslot. The man on the desk noticed our Max Card so let us go in a bit earlier. We were offered a sensory pack to borrow for our visit. My son loved the cart that took us through the Viking Settlement. The only negative was having to exit through the giftshop- my son had a huge meltdown in there. (To be fair I'm not sure if there was another exit that avoids the giftshop.)
Transport & Parking
We parked at the Monk Bar (York City Council) car park. It is about a 15 minute walk to the Jorvik Centre from here. Blue Badge holders can park for free,no time limit.
Access
Toilets
There were accessible toilets but we didn't use them.
Staff
The man on the desk was exceptionally helpful. The other staff were friendly too.
