Best of Bad of Bath - We had a great time being guided around key landmarks of Bath while hearing about some of the characters and misdeeds that were part of its history. Engaging, generous and memorable, we’d highly recommend.

Great entertaining alternative Tour of Bath whilst still covering the main areas. Strongly recommend - Fantastic 2+ hours with Simon getting a different perspective on the history of Bath.
Visited all the main sites but stories were not what you expect!
Subjects ranged from the bankrupted 'King Of Bath' to the last man in the Stocks.
Really enjoyed it. Been on many other city walks which can get a bit 'heavy' this was fun & entertaining but also covered all the main sites
Would definately recommend Simons alternative Bath Tour.

An engaging tour around Bath where one can learn quite a bit on Georgian Bath and its many aspects. - I was very lucky to have a one-on-one tour with Simon and I am very glad I went! I came to the tour not knowing much about Bath and its History so I definitely learnt a lot! Many subjects are covered, from the architecture, famous people who contributed to Georgian Bath and the many 'bads' the city had to offer at the time. It was very engaging and I was pointed in the direction of many other places I should visit whilst in Bath, which I will definitely look into.
I fully recommend this tour!

A rarely seen side of Georgian Bath - An excellent and informative tour with some insights into Georgian Bath that are rarely mentioned - the thievery, drunkenness, drug taking etc that were part of the times. It gave plenty of time to appreciate the main sights and architecture too. The time flew by. Many thanks to Simon.

Struck lucky in our choice of tour - If you are trying to choose a walking tour of Bath don't look any further than the Bad of Bath. What a thoroughly enjoyable experience! Simon delivered a knowledgeable, detailed history of Georgian Bath with amusing, lively tales instead of the usual dry facts. He brought the city's history to life for us.
He took good care of us and was considerate to our individual needs and specific interests (even going the extra metres to point out Bridgerton landmarks for me)
We were so lucky that others who had booked the tour had to change days so we had Simon to ourselves but I guess he would manage a big group just as well. We struck lucky in our tour choice, recommend that you give yourselves a treat and book too.

Highly recommend - We thoroughly enjoyed the Bad of Bath tour with Simon. Simon made the tour fun and engaging from start to finish. Whilst learning all about the shenanigans of the bad of Bath we took in all the historical sights and more that Bath has to offer. Would highly recommend especially if you want to hear about a different side to Bath’s past.

Book NOW! - Cannot recommend this tour highly enough. Simon was charming, funny and very knowledgeable. The nastier side of Bath was pretty eye opening! We did this tour even though we had done other tours prior and it was worth every penny.
