Brilliant afternoon. Our guide was excellent. Very knowledgeable and friendly. He took us to places we had walked by before and not even noticed. His Beatles knowledge was great.

We had only one day to spend in this amazing city, and are so glad we chose to book this tour. It was a relaxing yet very complete overview of the most important sites and history. The guide was extremely knowledgeable on every question we asked, from places to go, to architecture to the Beatles. Highly recommend!

The guide was amazing. He was very knowledgeable about Bath and the Beatles. He saw them at their start in Hamburg with personal stories. He was well versed on the history of Bath and the RomanBaths. This was a great way to see Bath and find places to return to.
