• 5Beautiful English Countryside and Stonehenge

  This was a surprisingly delightful foray into the English countryside and to Stonehenge, led by our tour guide, Ralph Oxborrow, head of partnerships. There were two couples on the trip who we hit it off with, so a bonus. Highly recommend this trip, which was fun, relaxing, and informative. We had lunch at The Bath Arms at Longleat, which was charming (you pay for your own lunch, and it's good food).

• 5Super Day

  Jules could not have been more accommodating in creating a custom tour for us. Knowing we had limited time in and around Bath, he organized a wonderful tour with Max our first day and took us himself the next day back to London via Lacock Abbey and Avebury, a sister site to Stonehenge, which we had requested. He is extremely knowledgeable (having taught history), and enjoys equally if not more so connecting with his guests. Not only did he share the history of each site, but also what he finds most fascinating. We learned a lot, we felt we'd made a new friend! Even though our time frame was tight, we never felt rushed. We had a super day with Jules!

• 5Very Informative and Enjoyable Day’s Tour.

  We have just returned from a full day touring with Simon. What a wonderful experience! Simon is very informative with facts about Stonehenge and, as a local, is very knowledgeable in matters pertaining to the surrounding areas of Bath. We thoroughly enjoyed exploring the windy backroads into quaint villages, places we would never have found on our own … ancient churches and a great pub for lunch. We are very satisfied customers! Highly recommend.

• 5Great way to see Stonehenge and the surrounding area.

  Our group of 6 had a private tour of Stonehenge and several nearby historic villages with Max. This was a wonderful way to see the countryside, see Stonehenge and pop into a few local pubs for luck and refreshments. We appreciated that this was off the beaten path and not touristy. Max was great and we highly recommend.

• 5Don't try and tour on your own ~ you'll miss out!

  From the time of my first email communications with Simon from In and Beyond Bath, I knew I chosen the right tour guides for our time in Bath. Unfortunately, our group of 4 travelers had a short time to spend in Bath and Simon was diligent in providing us a special, curated tour involving (thankfully) being picked up from the Bath train station (we had come from London) and then directly embarking on our journey to Stonehenge. We all knew immediately that Simon is a wealth of knowledge and we began learning much more about the details & history, which made the tour much more enjoyable! Simon knew how much I wanted to see The Cotswold's, but didn't have time - so, after touring Stonehenge we spent the afternoon making stops in quaint quintessential English villages within Somerset & Wiltshire counties. We stopped at a wonderful pub for lunch and continued our afternoon taking in the lovely English countryside before being dropped off at our Bath hotel in the early evening. Simon then joined us again the next morning for a half day walking tour of Bath City. Again, his knowledge of the history, arts & architecture was most appreciated! We ended our time with him transporting us from our hotel to the Bristol airport. We were sad to end our time with Simon but grateful for all we had seen and learned. Travelers to Bath (& beyond) owe it to themselves to contact Simon & In and Beyond Bath. You'll be very glad you did! We look forward to returning and will contact him again.

• 5Bucket List

  Stonehenge was better than we expected. Safely guided to Stonehenge with all the pointers and information. Simon was even telling latest discoveries and findings. Gave us private time there for taking it all in. Lunch was lovely and then fun afternoon of hidden treasures. Great day with Simon!

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.
