Romans, Royals and Regency Bath Self Guided Tour with App
Description
Walk through 2,000 years of history with this self-guided walking tour— from the ancient baths that gave this UNESCO city its name, to the Georgian backgrounds where Bridgerton was filmed and Jane Austen set two of her novels. Along the way, you can decide if you prefer Georgian era buildings in a square, circle or a crescent! As you walk you will encounter bakeries with 300-year-old recipes, hear why Princess Victoria never returned to Bath after a single visit, and find out what really happened at those Assembly Room balls. This tour is the perfect introduction to Bath if you are a first time visitor. You can pause the tour whenever you want to step into and explore a sight further and then resume the tour. The walk has 13 stops that take you uphill from the picturesque Pultney bridge to the famous Royal Crescent. Start anytime with no group to keep up with and no schedule to follow. Available in 9 languages.

Nice commentary with some extras. Easy to download
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're so glad the commentary and easy download worked so well for you. Hope to see you on another Tourific walk soon!
The idea is good and it is very practical with the map. I find that the content of the explanations is too superficial; I would have liked more details. In the city of Bath there are 14 spots with between 1 and 2 minutes of explanation per spot. It could be more complete, more detailed, richer in historical facts. It is not enough to read the first 3 lines that AI gives; you need historical content, anecdotes, like a real guide!
Merci pour votre retour. Nous notons votre remarque sur la profondeur du contenu, nous y travaillons. À noter que si l'IA est utilisée pour la narration et la traduction, le contenu des tours est bien conçu par notre équipe éditoriale interne. Nous améliorons continuellement nos tours grâce à des retours comme le vôtre, et nous espérons sincèrement que vous donnerez une nouvelle chance à Tourific à l'avenir.

We went for 1 day and the guide. I will guide you on how to take a route in Spanish
¡Muchas gracias por su fantástico comentario! Nos alegra mucho que la ruta en castellano fuera de su agrado. Esperamos verles pronto en otro tour de Tourific.
It was a nice, self paced tour.
Thank you for the wonderful feedback! Glad the self-paced format made for such a nice experience. Hope to see you on another Tourific walk soon.
An entertaining audio tour that leads you to the most important points in downtown Bath. The translation into German is clunky in some places, but is always understandable.
Vielen Dank für die tolle Bewertung! Ihr Hinweis zu den holprigen Stellen in der deutschen Übersetzung ist notiert, wir arbeiten daran. Schön, dass die Tour Sie trotzdem kurzweilig zu den wichtigsten Punkten in Bath geführt hat. Wir freuen uns schon auf Ihre nächste Buchung bei Tourific!
There seemed to be a lot of back-tracking, which didnt bother me so nuch as the fact the app kept closing and logging me out
We're so sorry the app kept closing and logging you out, that's frustrating, and we take full responsibility of the experience. Feedback like yours helps us fix it. We have already raised this on high priority with our technical team. You'll receive a full refund within the next few days, depending on your bank's processing time. We hope you'll consider giving Tourific another try in the future.
Places and descriptions are well selected. Full score. Without headphones and with the smartphone at my ear, the app often jumps out of the current post. Point deduction.
Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback. Es freut uns, dass Ihnen die Tour gefallen hat, und wir schätzen Ihren Hinweis zur Nutzung ohne Kopfhörer, da er uns hilft, die App weiter zu verbessern.
Fabulous audio tour of Bath. You can walk about at your own pace and start / stop the audio whenever you like to suit your agenda. It is informative and without doing this reasonably priced tour we would not have seen the city so thoroughly not known what we were looking at. Very affordable and definitely worth the money. The information given during the tour was just about right. Not too much so you get bored but enough to give a flavour of the city.
Thank you for the wonderful feedback! We’re so glad you enjoyed exploring Bath at your own pace and found the tour informative and good value.
The tour was great. Easy to follow and lots of info it was super cheap I would highly recommend it for the price. If we had been there longer I would have done more of them
Thank you! We’re so glad you enjoyed the tour and found it good value. We’d love to welcome you back for more tours next time!
