What To Expect

The tour starts in the morning or afternoon at the Bath Abbey in the city center, where you will meet your guide and begin with a string of sites including Pulteney Bridge and Bath Abbey, the site of the coronation of the first King of England in 973. You then proceed to the first highlight of the tour, the Roman Baths. Your guide will lead the group into the Baths (if option selected) to see the fascinating items and legacies left in Bath by the Romans during their occupation of the area, and to witness the miraculous phenomenon of Bath's hot geothermal springs. In the second half of the tour, you will also take in the enchanting Georgian architecture of this charming town. From the magnificent Royal Crescent to the mysterious Circus, you see the best of the pomp and luxury of the 18th century. We proceed from the central Pump Rooms to the lavish Upper Assembly Rooms and, finally, arrive at the sumptuous Royal Crescent and the mysterious Circus, Bath offers a stunning variety of breathtaking architectural gems. The tour has been specially devised to show you the very best of the Bath. The guides are fun, engaging local professionals who will make the city’s history truly accessible for visitors of all ages.

Thanks to the interesting story that was given to us by Rhys in a pleasant way adorned by funny anecdotes, it is a tour entirely recommended, an accurate route for those who want to know the history and evolution of this place, not only of the thermal baths themselves, but of the whole environment. Thank you so much!!!
Fun way to learn about Bath!

Great tour of Bath. Our tour guide Jamie was knowledgeable, entertaining and connected with everyone. We got to experience all the great sites and learn about Bath. There definitely isn’t a crazy amount of walking either.

George was a great guide! He took time with our small group, made sure to answer all the questions we had, and even had some clever jokes along the way! We also added tickets to the Baths to our tour. I'd highly recommend George!
