About
Bath Abbey Tower Tours are a great way to experience a sneak peek behind this iconic landmark and enjoy a breathtaking view over the whole of Bath.
Head behind closed doors to a hidden room housing the Abbey clock face before meandering through passageways to find yourself on top of the great fan-vaulted ceiling. Take a look at our bells and learn their history, before admiring the spectacular sight of the Bath cityscape and beautiful surrounding countryside from the top of the Tower. From this unique vantage point, look down into the ancient ruins of the Roman Baths, and peer across to the rooftop pool at Thermae Bath Spa.
This fully guided tour lasts 1 hour and has 212 steps. The tour is suitable for ages 5 years plus.
Entry to Bath Abbey and the Discovery Museum are included in this ticket. Discounts are available for students, children, Discovery Card holders and BA1 and BA2 residents with proof of address.
