I offer tours of Bath, Stonehenge, Avebury, Wells, Cheddar, Glastonbury, stately homes and beautiful villages surrounding Bath. I was born and grew up in Bath so if you would like a tour with a local, look no further - I am what locals call a genuine Bathonian! Travelling has been in my blood since I was young. I have been fortunate to visit many places in the world from Europe to Latin America, South East Asia, USA and Australia. However as Dorothy in the film "The Wizard of Oz" says: "There is no place like home" and so after working for a global tour operator I have settled back in Bath where I am surrounded by a beautiful city, lovely countryside and my family. Today I take great delight in showing visitors around my home city and the local area. If you are visiting Bath for the first time check out my Bath City Walking Tour which will give you a great introduction to the city. For those looking for a unique experience I have also created a tour where you can combine this with the opportunity to fly a hawk in the countryside which is an incredible experience. As I have a vehicle I also take visitors on tours of Stonehenge which is only 50 minutes from Bath as well as to other fascinating places such as Avebury, Wells, Cheddar and some of the charming villages around the city. The vehicle also allows me to do sightseeing transfers to/from Bath - from airports, ports and London. I can also customise tours and in the past I have taken visitors to Stately homes in the area e. g. Longleat House, Stourhead and to places like Salisbury Cathedral (which has a copy of the 1215 Magna Carta). If it is not an area of my expertise I will let you know. Do take a look at my reviews. In 2022 I was thrilled to win the "Experience of the Year" category in the regional tourism awards. My goal is to give you a wonderful experience during your stay. I hope I will meet you and have the chance to show you around my home city and the area that I affectionately call the West Country. Experience of the Year Gold Award in the 2021/22 Bristol Bath and Somerset Tourism Awards. All licenses required to transport passengers in my vehicle.

Overview of your Bath tour

If like me you enjoy trying new experiences and doing city tours to get to know your destination, read on - this tour does both! I will take you on a great introductory tour of Bath - the place where I was born. We will visit my favourite viewpoint to give you a great perspective of Bath and we will walk around the centre of Bath to show you all of the city's famous landmarks. I will tell you about Bath's history, how it became the country's most fashionable place to visit and the interesting stories behind the buildings and past residents such as Jane Austen. After lunch at one of my favourite pubs surrounding Bath I will drive you to a picturesque village where a small non-for-profit organisation runs a falconry and an owlery. The falconry offers visitors the unforgettable experience to learn simple falconry techniques and fly one of their magnificent hawks - which you will do! I will join you to help capture some great holiday photos and at the end of the experience I will drive you back to Bath.

Your Bath tour itinerary

• I will collect you and drive you to the viewpoint, just 5 minutes from the centre of Bath. • We will then continue the tour on foot in the centre of Bath. For the next 2. 5 hours I will show you all of the city's famous landmarks and tell you stories about the city's history and residents. • We will drive to a charming English pub on the outskirts of Bath for lunch. We will have just over an hour for lunch before we continue to the falconry, approx. 15 minutes away. • A local falconer will introduce you to their birds and guide you through your hawk flying experience. The experience at the falconry takes around 1 hour depending on how quickly you feed the hawk! At the end of the experience I will drive you back to Bath, arriving between 3pm and 3.30pm. • The hawk flying is subject to favourable weather conditions. This tour can be customised so if you prefer to fly owls please message me.
