5Exceptional, highly interesting walking tour
Jim provided an extremely informative and fascinating tour of Bath, and we found him to be vast in knowledge, a proper gentleman and really friendly guide. I couldn't recommend him more highly. Thank you for the exceptional experience and making our walking tour of Bath so interesting!
5A great tour of Bath for adults and young kids
A fantastic tour of Bath, Jess was an excellent guide and managed keeping our young kids engaged as well as the adults on the tour.
5Incredibly knowledgable guide Jess
My wife and I love starting a visit with a walking tour to get a feel for a town or city. Jess was a treasure trove of information which was delivered with humour and style. She also gave us ideas for the rest of our holiday break. Great fun and thoroughly recommended.
5So Much to Learn about the City of Bath!
We are so happy we booked a private walking tour with Bath Walking Tours. Andy was a wonderful guide - full of information about this beautiful city and many fun stories along the way. Would highly recommend if you are planning a trip to Bath!
5Fantastic walking tour with Knowledgeable guide
We had a private walking tour with Andy and can highly recommend both the tour and Andy as a guide. He catered the tour to the participants and was full of knowledge about his native city. Everyone agreed that it was a fantastic way to start our weekend in Bath and we learnt a lot. Thank you Andy.
5Excellent
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.

About Bath
Bath, in the west of England, is a Georgian spa city of honey-coloured stone, built around natural hot springs first used by the Romans.
Bath's hot springs were first enclosed by the Romans, who built a temple and bathhouse complex here in the first century, now the Roman Baths museum beside Bath Abbey. In the eighteenth century the city rebuilt itself as a fashionable spa in pale local limestone, and the terraces and crescents designed by John Wood the Elder and the Younger, including the Circus and the Royal Crescent, give it its look. The whole city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Top-ranked sights in Bath: Roman Baths, Royal Crescent, The Circus.
