Looking for a Bath ghost tour that feels genuinely different?
Perfect for couples, friends, solo travellers and dark humour lovers.
This is NOT your typical ghost tour. It's an immersive experience that draws you
into the darker side of Bath through vivid storytelling, dark humour and unexpected moments that are both fun and unsettling.
At key points, specially chosen scent cards pull you deeper into the stories - sometimes comforting, sometimes unsettling, and occasionally something you may wish you had not smelled.
These sensory moments make the stories and experience feel more vivid, memorable and real.
Shared with the group around you, it becomes a night of laughter, tension, surprise and something far more memorable than a standard walking tour.
Created by Bath-based storytellers with experience in performance, ghost stories, and immersive audience interaction.
Additional Info
Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller
Public transportation options are available nearby
Suitable for all physical fitness levels

My Guide DID NOT show up !! Ghosted on the Ghost Tour

1.00I would give this a ZERO, but lowest I can do is 1. My Scented Ghost Tour (starting at Bath Abbey) guide DID NOT show up 18th June at 7pm. I had a confirmation email at 7am, but they did NOT show up at Bath Abbey at all for 19:00 tour. We were at Bath Abbey well before 18:45, as we had dinner 50 feet away from the Abbey, within site of the meeting location. Another ghost tour guide did show up at 19:30 (and it was the woman in the cover photo of the advert). She was carrying a lantern as we'd be led to expecte they woul. She was looking sheepish when we approached her and asked if she was the guide for the Scented Ghost Tour. She said no, and quickly hid her lantern under her cape. She made some quick excuse and went around the side of the Abbey and met 6 other people waiting for a tour. We looked up the confirmation I had on my emails and HER photo was on it. We approached her again, and she said that someone named Simon had stolen her photo and used it. We called the phone number on the confirmation email and left a few voicemails from 7pm thru to 8:15pm. We texted on the night as well, and the next day, and have had NO REPLY. WE ARE NOT HAPPY with this very unprofessional level of service. I replied to Viator's email, but this bounced back. This is all VERY disappointing. We want to know what happened. Where was our guide. Why did they not show up. ... and we require a refund and compensation for a totally wasted evening on our 2 day trip to Bath. My ref : 1411335701
