Visitors from China, India and the US surge as sterling falls against most major currencies.
The regional tourist office Welcome to Yorkshire finds that tourism is thriving in the area. Commercial director Peter Dodd said:"We're hearing from lots of our accommodation members, especially cottages, lodges and other self-catering properties, that business is booming with some already fully booked until October."
"We're at 87% occupancy for the year already, which is much earlier than in previous years. Brexit uncertainty is causing people to choose holidays in Britain this year, which is good news for us."But when it comes to European visitors, Visit Britain says there is some concern about the impact that the uncertainty of Brexit is having.
They are running a campaign in Europe to persuade people that the UK will still be a good place to visit after it leaves the European Union.
