Jim was an excellent tour guide. His wealth of knowledge about Bath was only exceeded by his enthusiasm and charm. Ask almost any question and he has the answer. Beyond the tour itself he provided us with great advice about other sights to see and places to eat in Bath. A sight better than Andy, or so I hear.

Fantastic tour of Bath

Andrea_F, Jul 2025
We had the absolute pleasure of touring Bath with Jim, and it was truly one of the highlights of our trip to England. From the moment the tour began, Jim had us captivated with his incredible storytelling and deep knowledge of Bath’s rich history. He brought the city to life with fascinating tales, hidden details, and a genuine passion for the place that was absolutely infectious. Every stop along the way was made even more special by Jim’s insights — whether it was a fun historical anecdote or a little-known fact, he made sure we were engaged and entertained the whole time. His warmth, humor, and professionalism made the experience feel both personal and unforgettable. We loved every second and can’t recommend Jim highly enough. If you’re visiting Bath, do yourself a favor and book a tour with him — you won’t regret it!

James is a great tour guide, with knowledge on architecture and history. I recommend going on a tour with him the first day you arrive in Bath so you can get his recommendations about where to go during your stay. He told us about several things we never would have known about. Highly recommend!

All of the Viator tours that we booked for our recent trip were high-quality, but our Bath trip with Tony was even better than the others- in addition to being very personable, he was knowledgeable on a broad range of subjects, providing responses to all of our questions. We would recommend him to anyone seeking a similar experience!
