Bath sits at the heart of one of England’s richest regions for day trips. Within an hour’s drive in any direction, you have prehistoric monuments, medieval cities, honey-stone Cotswolds villages, mystical Somerset landscapes, and some of the most photographed countryside in the country.
The problem is that most of it is difficult to reach without a car. Public transport between Bath and Stonehenge, between Bath and the Cotswolds villages, or between Bath and Glastonbury is limited, slow, and requires multiple changes. Organised coach tours cover the highlights quickly but on a fixed schedule, with large groups and limited time at each stop.
A private taxi tour from Bath gives you something different: your own vehicle, your own driver, your own pace. You decide where to go, how long to spend, and when to leave. We take care of the driving, the navigation, and the parking — you just enjoy the day.

Bath City Highlights — What to Include on a City Tour
If you’re staying in Bath and want a guided introduction to the city’s highlights, our Bath City Tour covers the essential sights at a pace that suits you. Here’s what we typically include — and why each one is worth your time.
🛁 Roman Baths
One of the best-preserved Roman religious spas in the world. Allow at least 90 minutes — the audio guide with Bill Bryson is excellent.
🏛️ Royal Crescent
Thirty houses in a sweeping Palladian crescent — one of the greatest examples of Georgian architecture anywhere in Britain.
⭕ The Circus
John Wood’s masterpiece — a perfect circle of 33 houses with ancient symbolism carved into every facade. Directly connected to Royal Crescent.
🌉 Pulteney Bridge
One of only four bridges in the world with shops built across its full span. Best viewed from Parade Gardens below.
⛪ Bath Abbey
The ‘lantern of the west’ — magnificent fan vaulting and over 600 memorial plaques. Free to enter, donations welcomed.
🌳 Parade Gardens
Riverside gardens with a view of Pulteney Bridge — a perfect spot for a break between sights.
📚 Jane Austen Centre
Bath was Jane Austen’s home for several years and features prominently in her novels. The centre on Gay Street tells the story.
🍞 Sally Lunn’s
The oldest house in Bath (c.1482), famous for its oversized buns. Worth a stop for the basement museum alone.
Cruise Ship Excursions from Southampton, Bristol & Tilbury
Bath Airport Transfer is a popular choice for passengers whose cruise docks at Southampton, Bristol, or Tilbury and who want to spend the day in Bath or the surrounding countryside rather than booking an expensive ship-organised excursion.
- ✓Southampton to Bath day tour. ~1 hour 45 min each way. Plenty of time for the Roman Baths, Royal Crescent, and lunch in the city. We collect directly from the cruise terminal and return you before your departure time.
- ✓Bristol to Bath & Stonehenge. ~30 min to Bath, ~1 hr to Stonehenge. A full day covering both is easily achievable from a Bristol port call.
- ✓Tilbury to Bath & Stonehenge. ~2 hours each way. A longer day but very popular — Stonehenge en route makes the journey worthwhile.
- ✓Flexible timing. We work around your ship’s schedule. Tell us your docking time and required return time and we’ll plan an itinerary that fits.

Yes. We regularly collect passengers from Southampton, Bristol, and Tilbury cruise terminals. Give us your docking and departure times and we’ll plan an itinerary that gets you back on board with plenty of time.
