So interesting, a MUST for history buffs of ALL ages!
DIG的点评
点评：What a fabulous time we had at DIG in York! As a family of huge history buffs, this was high on our list, but it completely exceeded our expectations. We went as a big group—including three bubbly kids aged 7, 9, and 10—and every single one of us was completely hooked from start to finish.
The absolute highlight of our visit was our tour guide, Matt. Being a teacher myself, I was honestly in awe of how he managed the group. Holding the attention of a crowd made up of different families with varying ages/expectations is no easy feat, but Matt is a true, flexible professional at work! He made sure everyone in the group was included and felt valued.
What impressed me most was his questioning technique—he scaffolded questions for both the adults and the kids so superbly. When our family started sharing facts we’d learned from our own research, Matt didn't just nod and move on; he knew exactly what we were talking about! He seamlessly incorporated our knowledge into his talk and even brought out specific objects to spark our attention further. It made the whole experience feel so personalized and engaging.
Pros:
Matt the Tour Guide: Absolutely brilliant! Friendly, knowledgeable, and exceptional at keeping kids and adults equally entertained.
Hands-on History: The actual "digging" pits are brilliant for the kids to get stuck in, and the artifacts are fascinating.
Super Inclusive: Fantastic atmosphere where no question is a silly question.
Cons & Missed Opportunities:
I wish I had thoroughly researched their website before booking! I didn't realize they run amazing special themed events, such as Cressida Cowell's "How to Train Your Dragon School" (including Survival School and Warrior School!). My child is a massive fan of the books, so I was gutted we missed out on these. Top tip: Check their website's event page well in advance so you can plan your trip around one of these!
Top Tips for Visiting:
BEST TIP: Try to book the last "dig" slot of the day! We went at the very end of the day and it was wonderfully quiet, which gave us a much more relaxed, intimate experience in the dig pits.
Cost Breakdown:
Tickets: ~£11 per adult, £9 per child (Or look into the Pastport ticket if you are planning to visit the JORVIK Viking Centre too, as it saves a lot of money!).
Location/Access: Located in St Saviourgate. Easy to walk to from the city center, but parking in central York is always tricky/expensive, so we recommend using the Park & Ride.
Souvenirs: Cute little gift shop with lots of pocket-money-friendly bits for the kids. Mine spen tlal their money here in York :-)
We will definitely be back to catch one of the special events next time. A massive thank you to Matt for making our day so special!

翻译：我们在约克的DIG体验中心度过了无比愉快的时光！作为一群历史迷，这里一直都在我们的心愿单上，而实际体验更是远远超出了我们的预期。我们一群人一同前往——其中包括三个年龄分别为7岁、9岁和10岁的活泼可爱的小孩——从头到尾，我们每个人都完全沉浸其中。
这次参观最令人难忘的，就是我们的导游马特。我自己也是一名教师，说实话，他带领团队的方式真是让我钦佩不已。要吸引由不同年龄段、有着各自期望的家人组成的群体的注意力绝非易事，但马特绝对是一位灵活且专业的达人！他确保团队中的每个人都参与进来，并感受到被重视。
最让我钦佩的是他的提问技巧——他为成人和孩子都设计了恰到好处的引导性问题。当我们一家人开始分享自己通过研究了解到的知识时……马特可不只是点点头就敷衍了事；他完全明白我们在谈论什么！他巧妙地把我们分享的知识融入到自己的讲解中，甚至还拿出一些实物来进一步吸引我们的注意力。这让整个体验变得极具个性化且引人入胜。
优点：
马特这位导游：简直太出色了！他友善又博学，尤其擅长让孩子和成年人都乐在其中。
互动式历史体验：“挖掘”环节对孩子们来说更是乐趣无穷，让他们能亲手参与其中。那些手工艺品真是引人入胜。
超级包容：氛围极佳，在这里没有任何问题会被视为“愚蠢的问题”。
缺点与错失的机会：
我真希望预订之前能仔细研究一下他们的网站！我之前并不知道他们会举办各种主题特别活动，比如克蕾西达·考威尔主办的“如何驯龙学校”（还包括生存技能学校与勇士学校哦！）。我的孩子可是这些书的狂热粉丝，所以我们错过了这些活动，真是遗憾至极。最佳建议：提前查看他们网站上的活动页面，这样就能根据活动安排自己的行程啦！
参观小贴士：
最实用的建议：尽量预订当天最后一个“挖掘体验”时段吧！我们是在当天快结束时去的，那时游客很少，环境十分安静，让我们在挖掘坑中享受了一段轻松又惬意的体验。
费用明细：
门票：成人约11英镑/人，儿童约9英镑/人。另外，如果您还打算参观约维克维京中心，不妨考虑购买Pastport通票，这样能节省不少费用哦！位置/交通：位于圣救世主门附近。从市中心步行即可到达，不过约克市中心的停车问题一直很棘手且费用高昂，因此我们建议选择“停车换乘”服务。
纪念品：这是一家可爱的小礼品店，售卖许多价位亲民、适合孩子们购买的小物件。我的孩子们把在约克的零用钱都花在这里啦 :-)
下次我们一定会再来，参加这里的特别活动。非常感谢马特让我们度过了一个如此难忘的一天！如果您喜欢这篇评论且觉得它有所帮助，我将不胜感激——请您点击那个写着“YES”的小按钮。提前谢谢大家啦 x。
