Highest marks we can give! - First, Bath is a wonderful place to visit, and we highly recommend it. Now, on to Bath Insider Tours. Without going into super deep details, we can only say that Daniel was a treat to spend a couple of days with. As a native of Bath, he has a deep affection and appreciation for the city and the surrounding areas coupled with a great understanding of its history and culture. Daniel also carries a "bag of tricks" with him that turns a walking tour into a mulit-media experience. He will pull out photos, videos, and music to animate his commentary. Actually, commentary is not a good word, it is story telling the entertains and enlightens at the same time. We give Bath Insider Tours our highest recommendation without reservation.

Daniels knowledge of the city's history, combined with his engaging storytelling, made the tour both educational and fun. We appreciated how he brought Bath’s rich heritage to life and kept the whole group entertained throughout. Thank you for making our visit to this beautiful city so memorable!"

Absolutely loved our time with Daniel - he has such a gift for guiding!!! - My husband/I been blessed to do private tours past 20 years all over the world and Daniel is truly the best! That is saying a lot as we are discerning travelers! His communication is great as well as guiding style supplemented by iPad, music, snack - really goes above and beyond!! Did 3 hour Bath tour and his car was great for seeing views, etc. He delivers the history in easy to understand and humorous way and has the best personality!! Would love to tour with him many times over!!!

Much better than a group tour - Nice tour with Daniel. He catered it to make it easier on my more limited walking ability. It was great to be able to go at our own pace without being rushed along with group walking tours.

Great tour in Bath, England - We loved our day with Daniel. Lots of historical facts, local stories and some legends. Daniel was so easy to talk with, ask questions. Saw everything we wanted to see and he also gave us extra hints and suggestions. Great day.

Best in Bath! - While in Bath recently, we had the great good fortune to have Daniel Hancock of Bath Insider Tours provide us with two memorable tours. On the morning of our first full day in Bath, Daniel greeted us at our hotel, and as part of the "Bath City tour," whisked us to a nearby peak from which we viewed Bath in its entirety. Not only were we able to enjoy the splendor that is Bath, we also got a "lay of the land" which was most helpful in the days that followed. Returning to the City Centre, Daniel took us on a robust but reasonable walking tour which included many of the sights that we expected to see, and others which only a long-time native would know to share. This three hour tour came and went before we knew it, and it whet our appetites to revisit most of the sites on our own. On the following morning, we joined Daniel for the "Hidden Secrets of Bath" tour. As much as we enjoyed the prior day's tour, this outing was equally as interesting, though unique in its own way. Our walk along the Kennet and Avon Canal was a pure delight as was our stroll through Sydney Gardens, just to name a few of the memorable sites that we visited. Daniel also brings current and near-current events into his tours in both a meaningful, and at times, humorous manner. While viewing the Pulteney Bridge, he pointed out a section of the adjacent balustrade that was a different color than the rest. He whipped out his tablet, and we watched a video of a delivery truck careening out of control and smashing into the railing. Fortunately, nobody was injured and another tidbit of Bath history was made! Daniel is extremely personable, and fun with whom to spend time. His knowledge of Bath, both past and present is impressive - there wasn't a question that he was not able to answer! He also possesses an incredible ability to "read" his clients very quickly, and to modify the tour/itinerary accordingly. From a planning perspective. Daniel is a punctual communicator, both at the time of booking, and shortly prior to the actual tour. Having recently returned home from our three week visit to southern England, we remember Daniel and his "Bath Insider Tours" as one of the highlights of our trip!

Informative and Fun Tour of Bath - We had a great time on our tour with Daniel, and we wouldn't have enjoyed Bath near as much as we did if we'd seen it on our own. Daniel is funny and personable, and we enjoyed the trivia questions he threw out along the tour. We started the tour with a view of Bath high on a hill above the city, and at the tours end Daniel guided us back to a spot in the city we wished to return to. We would definitely recommend this tour.

Great family tour in Bath - Daniel took our family around Bath for a 3-hour tour. He was great at keeping everyone entertained and interested, both children (9y and 10y's old) and parents. He had plenty of stories, anecdotes, music, etc to share. He also managed to improvise a detour via ou hotel for us to fetch warmer clothes and via a small cafe preparing great hot chocolate - as the children were getting cold. We warmly recommend.
