Good to know
This suits anyone wanting a solid, local overview of Bath without the crowds of a larger group tour — your guide has genuine knowledge of how the city actually works. Prams and strollers are fine; infants under 2 must sit on a lap in the vehicle, though groups of 4 or fewer can fit a fold-up pram in the car. Walking shoes are essential. Weather in Bath varies; bring layers and rain cover. No gratuities are included in the price. Groups are capped at 6 people, so the experience stays personal. Public transport is nearby if needed.
