Book your preferred tour option, and meet your guide in central Bath. Then, set off to explore on foot, learning about the UNESCO-listed city and its architecture on route.
Founded by the Romans as a thermal spa and littered with classical treasures, Bath flourished in the 18th century with the development of its honey-stoned, Georgian architecture.
Admire Pulteney Bridge and Gothic Bath Abbey, the coronation site of England’s first king in 973, and then continue to Bath’s showpiece: the Roman Baths.
Pay the entrance fee (depending on option selected) and tour the stunning, column-lined Great Bath and changing rooms, hot pools, and other facilities, all once used for relaxation and socializing by ancient Romans.
See the hot springs, and view the main artifacts in the museum collections, including the famous Minerva’s Head and inscribed stone tablets.
Next, delve into the historical town center to admire its Georgian architecture. See the Pump Rooms and Upper Assembly Rooms, and walk to the world-famous Royal Crescent. Drink in the sumptuous sweep of this 18th-century terrace, and admire the Circus, a circular-shaped terrace formed from curving segments.
After learning about these architectural masterpieces, your tour finishes in the city center.

Great communication when we weren’t sure where to be we were called to let us know where to go. Lucas our guide was friendly, professional, knowledgeable, personable, and gave good pace for the walk.

Very good walking tour of Bath with a recent Bath university graduate. Good, interesting information about the historical sites and stories of Bath. We got the add-on to include entry to the Roman Baths, which was worth it, but the tour would have been complete had entry to the abbey been included. (We paid separately for it).

Our guide BJ was very informative and showed us some of the major sites in the city . Was not particularly impressed by the Roman Baths , crowded and worst of all the sewage smell down in the lower parts put me right off and I left immediately although some of the relics and things were very interesting, would recommend to miss the baths thing
