Romans, Royals and Regency Bath Self Guided Tour with App

About this activity

Walk through 2,000 years of history with this self-guided walking tour— from the ancient baths that gave this UNESCO city its name, to the Georgian backgrounds where Bridgerton was filmed and Jane Austen set two of her novels. Along the way, you can decide if you prefer Georgian era buildings in a square, circle or a crescent!

As you walk you will encounter bakeries with 300-year-old recipes, hear why Princess Victoria never returned to Bath after a single visit, and find out what really happened at those Assembly Room balls.

This tour is the perfect introduction to Bath if you are a first time visitor. You can pause the tour whenever you want to step into and explore a sight further and then resume the tour. The walk has 13 stops that take you uphill from the picturesque Pultney bridge to the famous Royal Crescent.

Start anytime with no group to keep up with and no schedule to follow. Available in 9 languages.
