Bath City Sightseeing Tour

About

The City Sightseeing Bus Tour is a great, relaxing way to explore Bath and all its iconic attractions. You can’t miss the bright red, open-topped bus that can be found at 38 stops throughout the city. The sightseeing tour takes approximately 50 minutes but remember, you can hop on and off as many times as you wish, making it the perfect way to discover the city.

On the bus you’ll be joined by a knowledgeable and enthusiastic tour guide, ready to tell you all about Bath’s rich history, as well as interesting, bizarre and often surprising facts about the city. Earphones are provided for listening to commentary in ten different languages including Spanish, French and German.

As the big red bus weaves through the city, you’ll be perfectly placed to see some of the most iconic sites. If something catches your eye along the way don’t hesitate to step off the bus and begin exploring. You may find yourself walking the ancient pavements of the Roman Baths, completing a tower tour of Bath Abbey, or even sampling the delicious Sally Lunn bun. The stops are also brilliantly located for hopping off and delving into one of our many fascinating museums, indulging in a shopping spree or taking a break and indulging in a bite to eat. And once you’re done, just re-join the bus tour and continue sightseeing.

The bus tours don’t just cover the city centre, but also the outskirts of Bath. So once you’ve explored the centre why not begin a skyline tour of the beautiful surrounding areas? The spectacular Skyline Tour lasts 45 minutes, beginning at the train station before heading out past the University of Bath, the American Museum in Britain (located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty) and the stunning Prior Park Landscape Gardens.

Departures are regular and tickets are valid for twenty four hours. Showing a ticket also offers discounts at many top attractions such as the Fashion Museum, Jane Austen Centre, No.1 Royal Crescent and more.
