Traveller reviews
Daniel Hancock was great. We did a walking tour of Bath. He drove us around to see some great views. We had a delicious dinner in a 700 year old pub. Then Daniel drove us to a VIP sunset tour at Stone Henge. it was phenomenal. He was very engaging and told great stories and was very knowledgeable about the area (he grew up there).
If you're considering a private tour in Bath or Stonehenge, stop searching and book Daniel Hancock with Bath Insider Tours. He gave us one of the most memorable travel experiences we've ever had. Daniel is a gifted storyteller who brings history to life. Our day began with breathtaking views overlooking the city of Bath while we enjoyed the original Bath buns—a wonderful local tradition that immediately made us feel connected to the city. From there, he expertly guided us through Bath's stunning Georgian architecture, shared fascinating historical stories, and pointed out the iconic Bridgerton filming locations, blending history, television, and local culture into a truly engaging experience. He also took us to a beautiful lavender farm and arranged an early dinner at St. George, where both the food and service were exceptional. Every part of the day felt thoughtfully planned and perfectly paced. The highlight of our trip was the private sunset visit inside the stones at Stonehenge. Standing among the stones without the daytime crowds was unforgettable, but what made the experience extraordinary was Daniel himself. My husband has ALS and uses a wheelchair. Without hesitation, Daniel pushed his wheelchair throughout the Stonehenge site while continuing to share the history, legends, and archaeology with enthusiasm and warmth. He never made us feel rushed, and he constantly looked for ways to make my husband comfortable and included. His kindness, patience, and genuine compassion meant more to us than words can express. Daniel didn't just show us Bath and Stonehenge—he gave us a day we'll treasure forever. We've taken many private tours around the world, and Daniel is among the very best guides we've ever had. If you're looking for someone who is knowledgeable, personable, accommodating, and truly passionate about his home, Daniel Hancock is the guide you want. We recommend him without reservation and would book with him again in a heartbeat.
Daniel was our tour guide for our private tour of Stonehenge. He was very knowledgeable and shared interesting facts during the tour.
Daniel, the drive and the sunset Stonehenge tour were as we had hoped, exceptional, just wish it could have lasted longer!
I 100% recommend Daniel and his team for your very exclusive Stonehenge tour. I was able to get the inner circle experience and let’s just say today was unforgettable. I have never been so close to a UNESCO world heritage site before. Dan was kind and thoughtful and as 3rd Gen Bath local, he knew everything there is to know about Bath. My sister asked for digestives as a souvenir from England… I couldn’t find them at the local Tesco so Daniel was kind enough to drive me to a supermarket! This is above and beyond. Five Stars all around. If you’re traveling solo, you’re definitely gonna love the experience.
We had an absolutely incredible day with Daniel Hancock (Bath Insider) — hands down the best guide we’ve ever had. Daniel picked us up from our hotel early in the morning and drove us to Stonehenge for an Inner Circle experience on a cold, wintry day. He was an exceptionally calm, safe driver (important for me, as I get car sick very easily). He came prepared with a variety of hot beverages and mugs, which was such a thoughtful touch on a cold morning! On the drive, he shared background on Stonehenge in a way that was informative, interesting and fun — Daniel is charming, authentic, and so easy to be around. At Stonehenge, he guided us through the Inner Circle with great detail, pointing out tiny, fascinating elements we never would have noticed on our own. He was clearly committed to making it a special experience, took lots of great photos for us, and the whole time it felt less like a “tour” and more like spending time with a knowledgeable (and hilarious) friend. After Stonehenge, he dropped us back at our hotel, and then met us again a few hours later for a Bridgerton Film Tour in Bath. He blended Bridgerton insights with interesting Bath history throughout, and he was especially thoughtful with our teenage daughter, making sure she was included and engaged in every conversation. By the end of the day, we were all genuinely sad to say goodbye. He really made the day so amazing! If you’re considering a trip to Stonehenge and/or Bath, book with Daniel — we truly could not recommend him strongly enough! *Photo tip: Daniel will happily take photos (and they’re great!).
Our first day with Bath Insider Tours (Dan) was incredible. He guided us on a walking tour of Bath where we learned Bath’s long and interesting history. He shared facts and folklore and took us to a Roman bath where we got to try the hot spring water. Our time there was incredibly interesting and Dan made it fun - no dry history from Dan! He even took us into a local cheese monger shop so we could try the cheese with special crackers developed in Bath. Dan was happy to stop and let us buy a Bath Bun in one of shops as his story about them intrigued us and we wanted to give it a try. On our way to Stonehenge, Dan took us to a 700 year old pub for lunch. There he shared incredibly helpful information about ordering, eating, and paying for a meal in an English establishment. Stonehenge was glorious and Dan sharing an overview of what is known about Stonehenge was fascinating. Dan is a safe and thoughtful driver. He is very prepared and organized, but more than willing to adjust to meet his clients’ needs and wants. Dan is the BEST of the BEST. Do yourself a huge favor and book a tour with Bath Insider Tours.
Daniel was excellent ,his knowledge of the area really brought everything together,as far as learning and really soaking in the history of the area.Very personable and enjoyable,we took a family tour and my boys 18 and 21 really enjoyed talking to Daniel and "hanging out" with him.Loved the visit to the local cheesemonger and sampling the the authentic cheddar cheese..All in all a lovely experience.
