Thank you to Fred for the fantastic walking tour around Bath!! The tour was extremely interesting and informative and Fred was a friendly, enthusiastic guide with lots of knowledge and facts to share! Despite the weather it was an amazing tour that we all enjoyed! Would highly recommend this tour as a great way to explore and get to know Bath!

Wow, Amazing, thanks to Our tour guide!!! I feel so bad I forgot her name but she was the best. She had some much knowledge and made our trip so much fun and even gave us all tips on what do do and eat in London. A must! She ensured our kids were involved and make it so much fun for all.

Our guide was very knowledgeable and passionate about his job. The tour was great and he was patient with some of the more awkward Tour guest. It is a rather fast paced tour but there was lots to cover. The tour of the Abbey at the end really set it off perfectly.

Our guide was very friendly and the tour was very interesting. I would recommend it.

Is a good experience. The only think is little time in the places.
