Bath City Private Historical Walking Tour

About this activity

Introducing Bath's long history from pre-Roman times to its rise & fall as a spa town. This tour introduces the general insights into the origins of Bath from ancient times as a Roman site to its more fashionable development as the destination to see & be seen by high society...and then its decline.

We will introduce the major architectural locations such as the Royal Circus, The Crescent, Charlotte square. However, where this tour differs from your typical Bath city historical tour, is we will also detail the many references made to the city's people and places in Jane Austen's literature and in her own personal family life here.
