Traveller reviews
Today we had the pleasure of attending a walking tour of Bath with Justin of “In & Beyond Bath” tours. Justin is a wonderful and friendly tour guide who made us feel comfortable and at ease from the moment we met until the completion of the tour. He is very knowledgeable about all of the past and present history of Bath and its neighborhoods and architecture. He also customized the tour to our liking. We highly recommend walking Bath with him!
From the first, our experience with Simon was superb. Simon's knowledge of the places we toured is extraordinary, and he delivers it all with such enthusiasm that we couldn't help but be dazzled. At every place and moment, we felt solidly in the hands of a highly skilled travel professional. On time every time, well prepared and informed, Simon delivered total white glove handling befitting a luxury travel experience. Thank you, Simon, and thank you In and Beyond Bath company. We will be back.
Justin showed my 88 year old mother and I around Bath. He was so very kind, warm and attentive to both of us but especially my mother. Our visit was just long enough to get the highlights of the city and short enough to enjoy every single moment.
We spent the day with Toby. He was outstanding! Funny and answered every question we had. We covered a lot of ground in just two hours. I would highly recommend this company and Toby👍👍
This was a really interesting tour. Justin our guide, was knowledgeable and clearly has a deep historical expertise in Jane Austen and Bath. His casual and friendly style was perfect and we learnt a lot about Jane Austen's life and the influence Bath had on her writing. Highly recommended.
My mother(very active 80 yr old) and I enjoyed a wonderful tour walking tour of Bath with Justin. We booked a 2 hour walking tour with emphasis on Jane Austen, but Justin was able to provide so much more than that. He provided a lovely walking tour of Bath with a tremendous amount of historical information about Bath, the links to Jane Austen and her family's time in Bath and very interesting fact and stories about the development of Bath. He was very patient and accommodated our walking pace and interests. We made several interesting stops along the way. We would absolutely recommend Justin and In and Beyond Bath tours for any of your interests. They are top notch, professional, extremely knowledge, friendly and a wonderful way to experience a new location. The communication from booking through meeting and the tour was perfect. We will return and use them again. If you're lucky enough to get Justin, enjoy your tour!
Justin was a fabulous guide who showed us the highlights of Bath in the context of Jane Austen. Knowledgable and a pleasure to be with. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
This was the perfect two hour tour of the city of Bath. Our lovely guide Maggie brought the history of Bath alive as she showed us the key sights and told us stories of the people who built and lived there. This tour had something for everyone in our family-- history, architecture, Jane Austen and Bridgerton.
