Overview

Instead of a predictable walking tour that only covers Bath’s history and top landmarks, this tour allows you to experience a completely different side of the city. Hear stories about crimes, corruption, and hidden sins of Bath that visitors don’t usually find out about. From thieves to gamblers to an infamous preacher—John Wesley, this tour provides humor, history, and sinful stories while walking between key sights such as the Royal Crescent and Pulteney Bridge.

An interesting side of Bath

keithkO7043LR, May 2026

A thoroughly enjoyable tour of Bath. Simon touched on the well known, then gave us the lesser known stories that explain so much more about the city. A relaxed couple of hours in his company, warm and engaging. Thankyou

Fantastic way to tour the city

Excellent Tour Guide and History

Simon was extremely knowledgeable and gave us a fabulous perspective on Bath that is not as traditional, still hitting the traditional bits. He was warm and friendly and able to answer all questions. A must do when in Bath!
