Jane Austen's Bath And History Trail

During my time in Bath I studied the history of Bath, its architects and residents who made this UNESCO World Heritage City a historical jewel. The legacy of Jane Austen’s writing and reading her novels inspired me to gain extensive knowledge about her time in Bath and the significance Bath had on her writing. This Tour is a Sister Tour of "The Bath History And Beatles Memory Tour" showing reviews which underline my unique approach and appreciations by guests.

Ulrich was an amiable and knowledgeable tour guide. That being said, we felt that a more accurate description should have been posted. There was little about Jane Austen. It is a walking tour of Bath. In the description Viator should have mentioned the level of physical activity and time needed to complete the tour. We could have made a more informed decision when purchasing.

Enjoyed the walking tour with Ulrich on a very rainy day in beautiful Bath! Ulrich shared his knowledge of Jane Austen's life in Bath and beyond as well as pointing out key points of interest such as the Roman Baths, the theatre where the Beatles once played, the residence of Beau Nash and history of some of the architecture. Ulrich is pleasant, gently spoken and engaging. Thank you for a lovely morning. Caitlin and Genni
