Overview |
| |
Although
famous for the the Roman Baths, the city is better defined by its
18th century elegance, a city with fabulous architecture, a rich
history... an explorer's paradise.
Don't miss the wonderful architecture of Royal Crescent and The
Circus, or the last great medieval church, Bath Abbey, unique Pulteney
Bridge, several quality museums including one dedicated to Jane
Austen who lived in the city, and the maze of narrow shopping streets
in the central core.
Avebury, an enormous stone circle, predates Stonehenge and is a
fascinating starting point for the day. |

Plan
for the day |
|
|
En
route to Bath we stop at Avebury. Your driver-guide will take you
on a a circular guided walk around the stones circumnavigating the
village of Avebury. Then on past Silbury Hill, the highest man-made
prehistoric hill in the world. On arrival
in Bath, there will be an informal walking tour into the city centre
concluding at the Roman Baths from where you will have free time
to explore. Bath is not a large city so the best way to explore
is on foot. Meander through the picturesque streets to sample Georgian
architecture at its best. We leave Bath late in the afternoon to
make the journey back to Cambridge to arrive mid-evening. |
