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.

Enjoyable tour bring Bath’s past to life

JandDPixey, Jun 2026

A great way to explore key sites by bringing to life people from the past: the famous to the infamous. A good 2 hours delving into the hidden gems (and muck) of Bath.

Walk and talk around Bath

Anne B, Jun 2026

Simon was friendly and engaging. He is very enthusiastic about Bath and conveyed this with facts and humour. The walk was easy and covered all of Regency Bath which has a fascinating history. We really enjoyed the tour
