We recently took the Walking Tour of Bath with a Blue Badge Tourist Guide, and it was truly one of the highlights of our trip to the UK. Our guide Andrew was not only incredibly knowledgeable but also passionate about the city’s rich history and architecture. Every explanation was detailed, accurate, and engaging. From the Roman Baths to the Royal Crescent and the charming alleyways in between, we explored so many fascinating corners of Bath that we would have completely missed on our own. The pace was perfect—leisurely enough to take in the sights, but structured so we covered a lot in just a couple of hours. There were plenty of opportunities to ask questions. We especially appreciated the context provided about Bath’s Georgian architecture. Whether you're a history buff or just curious about what makes Bath so special, this tour is a must. Highly recommended!
Tour was most definitely made by the excellent guide.

This was, without doubt, one of the best tours I have taken. Jess was outstanding as a tour guide. She was engaging, entertaining, knowledgeable, enthusiastic, warm and brought the history of Bath to life - don't underestimate what a skill that is! I learnt so much about history and Bath which made the tour a delight.
Jess was a great guide

Jess is phenomenal! Her level of knowledge and enthusiasm is unparalleled. We wanted to take her with us for the rest of the trip so that we could learn as much about other places as we did in Bath.

Great tour! Jess was energetic and incredibly knowledgeable about Bath and its history. She’s a 5 star speaker with a great sense of theater. Easy to hear too even without a microphone.Her timing was excellent and she kept us all together despite the huge crowds around us. The tour showed us a lot of the Bath attractions giving us a good overview of the geography of the town.
Jess made our tour the most wonderful experience.

Jess was the most brilliant tour guide we have ever met. Her fabulously knowledgeable tour of Bath included so much history and interesting facts which made the two hours fly past. We were so lucky to have sunshine and Jess - she is passionate and we enjoyed every minute. Thank you Jess. We learnt so much and you have inspired me to read more!
