Delightful, fully engrossing, wide ranging tour!

We had such an enjoyable afternoon! While we booked the Jane Austen tour, we learned so much about her and her life , but as a bonus we also we got to learn about Roman history, the Normans, architecture, the Beatles and more! What a delight, even in the rain!

Ulrich was very well...

Ulrich was very well informed and friendly. The weather was very poor, but Ulrich was happy to give us the tour anyway - at our discretion, with options to shelter and do a 'virtual tour' if we wanted to. We didn't, however, and had a nice time walking around Bath and hearing about the foundations of the city along with lots of Jane Austen titbits.

The Best Way to Spend 2.5 Hours in Bath!

I was fortunate enough to have the guide all to myself! We grabbed our umbrellas, and off we went. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of the area, the architecture and architects, and, of course, Jane Austen and her family! It was a wonderful experience that I highly recommend. There is no better way to spend 2.5 hours in Bath!
