About this tour
This is a phone or video call rather than a filmed walk. The guide talks you through Bath itself, including Bath Abbey, Pulteney Bridge and Royal Crescent, and answers whatever you are curious about.
The call opens with a quick hello, works through a few practical topics, leaves plenty of room for your own questions, and ends with a short follow-up note.
This suits anyone about to visit Bath who wants a plan before they land, or anyone who would rather ask a local than trawl through forum threads.
Included
- A 30-minute call with a local guide
- Honest tips on where to eat, stay and what to skip
- A short follow-up note with every place mentioned
Not included
- Bookings made on your behalf
- Phone or data charges from your provider
Itinerary

Hello, and what you want to know 5 min
The guide calls you and asks what you are after: planning Bath, recommendations, or just questions.
-
What to eat 17 min
Local dishes worth trying: Bath bun, Sally Lunn bun and Afternoon tea.
-
Your questions 5 min
Ask anything that is still on your mind, there is no fixed script.
-
A written note after the call 3 min

Good to know
- A stable phone or internet connection, whichever the guide uses to reach you.
- No app to install. You answer when the guide calls, or join a video call if you would rather.
- Times are shown in London time, so check the time where you are before you book.
- The call is not recorded. Keep your own note of anything you want to remember, or wait for the follow-up message.
- Have your questions ready, though there is time to think of more as you go.

How reviews work
Only travellers who booked and paid through Locals Guide and whose tour took place can leave a review, within 60 days of the tour. Every review is marked "Verified booking". We check reviews before they appear and publish positive and negative ones alike; we remove only reviews that break our rules (insults, personal data, unrelated content). Guides cannot pay for, edit or hide reviews, and ratings are the plain average of all published reviews.
