Introducing Bath’s extensive history from pre-Roman times to its rise and fall as a spa town. This tour provides a general overview of Bath’s origins, from its ancient beginnings as a Roman site to its development into a fashionable destination for high society, and eventually, its decline. We will highlight major architectural landmarks such as the Royal Circus, The Crescent, and Charlotte Square. What sets this tour apart from typical Bath city historical tours is our focus on the numerous references to the city’s people and places in Jane Austen’s literature and her personal family life here.
