  2. 1. Pulteney Bridge This is an architectural monument that you cannot miss. Built around 250 years ago, Paltney Bridge is in the heart of Bath. Similar to the Ponte Vecchio in Florence, along the Ponte Paltni are a bunch of buildings that house shops. It is considered unique, so the best recommendation for city guests is to take a walk from the bridge and along the river embankment. 2. Bath Abbey (Bath Abbey) Bath Abbey is an Anglican parish church and former Benedictine monastery in Bath, Somerset, England. Founded in the 7th century, it was reorganized in the 10th century and rebuilt in the 12th and 16th centuries. 3. Green Street (Green Street) If you want to go shopping, Green Street is perfect for you.

  6. The Circus, originally called King's Circus, was designed by the architect John Wood, the Elder. Construction began in 1754, however Wood died less than three months after the first stone was laid and so his son, John Wood, the Younger, completed the design in 1768. The Circus consists of three curved segments of Grade I listed townhouses, forming a circle with three entrances. When viewed from the air, the Circus, along with Queen Square and adjoining Gay Street, form a key shape, which is a masonic symbol similar to those that adorn many of Wood's buildings. Self-guided!

  • 4Lots of time

    They give a lot of time for both places we visit. driver is very nice and so the guide. Although, the guide could share more facts or information about the places visited and be a bit more confident :) but he was very nice and accommodating.

  • 4Amazing views but no real guide

    Amazing views of Stonehenge and a very cozy old town of Bath with numerous cafes and pubs to have a bite or a drink. Sadly, we could spend three hours instead of four there. Even if we spent more time travelling than visiting places (more than six hours) the bus ride itself was smooth. The only big downside was that we had no real tour guide. If less than one minute of information before the travel, five minutes of almost impossible to understand due to unusual pronunciation reading before arriving in Stonehenge counts, my idea of a passable tour guide is different. By the way, in the itinerary it is written that "As you travel, hear interesting facts about the region". No way!

About Birmingham

Birmingham is England's second city, a Midlands centre of canals, Victorian civic buildings, jewellery workshops and Pre-Raphaelite art.

Birmingham grew from a market town into a city of a thousand trades during the Industrial Revolution, and its canals, which fan out from the basin at Gas Street, still thread through the centre lined with bars and restored warehouses. Victoria Square has the Council House and the Town Hall, the Library of Birmingham stands beside Centenary Square, and the Bullring shopping centre sits below the spire of St Martin's Church.

Top-ranked sights in Birmingham: Chamberlain Square, Birmingham Town Hall, Centenary Square.
