The Roman Baths

Fantastic experience. So much to see that is preserved. I expected just the bath portion but the entire complex is still present in parts being excavated. You are able to walk through and listen to the included audio guide explain each bath/complex part's function. Highlight of the trip!

Such an amazing place to visit! The Roman Baths are full of history and really well looked after. The museum is super informative, with lots of interesting displays and an easy-to-use audio guide. The main bath is stunning and gives you a real sense of what it must have been like centuries ago. Staff were friendly and helpful, and the whole experience felt well organized. Definitely worth the visit if you’re in Bath

Summarising before my review: • No queue on entry, got in straight away at the time • Even with lots of visitors, it never felt overcrowded or rushed • People were respectful when taking photos, making it easy to get good shots • Beautiful, authentic architecture that feels like walking through ancient ruins • Informative plaques explaining each area/piece • Worth visiting for both locals and tourists • Costumed staff add to the experience and share extra historical insights • Gift shop had a good mix of interesting items and smaller souvenirs Visited the Roman Baths recently and was actually surprised by how much I enjoyed it. I’m not super in tune with Bath’s history, but I can say it was beautiful, insightful, and really relaxing to see. When I went in, there were quite a few people inside, but luckily the queue was empty so I got straight in. Even though a lot of people were taking photos, it never felt crowded or like anyone was in the way. Everyone seemed respectful and willing to wait their turn, so you never felt rushed when taking your own pictures. The architecture was incredible; everything has clearly been preserved to keep it authentic. At times it honestly felt like walking through underground ruins… which, I guess, maybe I was (😂). I’ll admit I didn’t always know exactly what I was looking at, even with the plaques explaining each piece or location, but that didn’t take away from the experience. It’s definitely worth a visit whether you’re local or just passing through. They also have people dressed in period costumes who you can take photos with, and I’m sure if you ask, they’ll share bits of history you might not have known before. Overall, it was an amazing experience. I’m glad I went, and the gift shop had a nice mix of interesting items and smaller souvenirs to take home.

The Roman Baths are an absolute must-visit when in Bath! The site is incredibly well-preserved, and walking through the ancient baths gives you a real sense of the city’s rich history. The audio guide (available in multiple languages) adds a lot of interesting detail, and the displays are informative without being overwhelming. You can even see the natural hot spring still bubbling away—fascinating! The museum is thoughtfully laid out, and the experience is both educational and atmospheric. Highly recommended for history lovers or anyone curious about Roman life.

I was honestly surprised, it’s worth the charge getting in - don’t forget to take the audio tour set with you. I think it enhances your experience. We learned some history and weird fun facts. Definitely better than our tour to the Stonehenge.

I visited the Roman Baths in Bath with my some of my relatives, and it was an absolutely amazing experience. Walking through the ancient site, we were transported back in time, surrounded by beautifully preserved architecture and fascinating history. The atmosphere was both educational and awe-inspiring, with interactive displays and a well-designed audio guide that kept all of us—adults and kids—engaged throughout. The steaming Great Bath was especially impressive, and it was incredible to imagine how people once gathered there centuries ago. A must-visit destination that blends history, culture, and beauty perfectly.

The Roman Baths is a very interesting place to visit. You can see the historic pools and even try the water from the drinking fountain with cups. The atmosphere is fascinating, but there are a lot of people, and it gets crowded, especially on weekends. I think visiting on a weekday would be more comfortable and allow you to enjoy the exhibition more peacefully. It's a great place for history and culture lovers.

Visiting the Roman Baths in Bath was such a special experience. Standing here, it feels like stepping back into ancient times, surrounded by history that has been preserved for centuries. The atmosphere is calm yet powerful, reminding me how incredible it is that people once gathered here so long ago. Truly a place worth seeing when in the UK.

We were so impressed with Bath, in general, and the Roman Baths didn't disappoint. We hadn't booked tickets but there wasn't a line at the time we arrived so it was a quick-in. They offer an audio tour, if that's something of interest to you, as you walk around. Lots of beautiful architecture and history you can read up on of how the baths were used. They have holograms that pop up in different places so it feels like you were right there with the Romans. Overall, worth the visit! Get there early so it's not super crowded. Lots of photo opps. When you go downstairs, there's a spot you can get a view of the Bath & Bath Abbey behind you.

During our trip to London, we made it a point to visit Stonehenge and the Roman Baths. We spent several hours in a bus and visited Stonehenge first, but eventually we arrived at The Roman Baths, in the city of Bath, Somerset, England. The temple around the thermal waters is very well preserved and quite impressive. Very much worth the visit. The story of how the city of bath goth its name and the thermal waters were found was very interesting. If you are into history, specifically Roman, this is definitely a place to visit.

I just got back to London from my visit to The Roman Baths in Bath, and it was a fascinating experience. Despite arriving after 4:30 pm, we were still able to enjoy everything the site had to offer. The museum is incredibly well-preserved, and you truly feel like you're stepping back in time. The exhibits and artifacts do a great job of explaining the significance of the baths in Roman Britain. The highlight, of course, is the Great Bath itself - it's breathtaking to see up close, especially as the evening light casts a beautiful glow. The audio guide was informative and easy to follow, enhancing the overall experience. I'd recommend taking your time to fully appreciate the architecture and history. Although it was less crowded in the late afternoon, some areas still felt a bit busy. Booking ahead is essential, and visiting later in the day can be a good option if you want to avoid the larger crowds. Overall, a very enjoyable and educational visit. The Roman Baths is a must-see for anyone visiting Bath!

everything is so well-preserved here, it's a must-visit if you're in bath. we didn't book tickets in advance, but we were able to enter without a wait. don't skip the audio guide! lots of great history and knowledge shared via audio snippets as you explore the baths. i'll admit i didn't know a whole lot about bath, or the roman baths, before coming here: this was an absolutely beautiful and breathtaking way to really learn about the history of the city. i was shocked at how much work went into keeping this as original-looking as possible. definitely worth a visit! oh, and at the end, you can even sample the thermal water... apparently, it cures all ills :)

A great site to visit. I suggest getting advance tickets early in the morning for when they open as this place gets busy fairly quickly with the tour groups. You'll get better photo ops and opportunity to read the displays without the crowds.

A lot of history has happened between these walls and you can feel it. We took the tour with only an hour fifteen left to close and we were able to rush through it and get the most out of it. Expect to be here for at least two hours if you want to use the audio tour guide and listen to all the different exhibits this place has to offer. We learned a lot of interesting things while there and you could feel the heat coming from the water. Too bad the water is contaminated but you have to respect the fact they left natural history alone for us to see it exactly how it is. You can also get some beautiful views of the surrounding city while on the top floor.

This was a nice surprise. We have been to Roman Baths but this is more unique. The hot water from below the earth was available thousands of years before the Roman's. They are behind us now for over 2000 years and the water is still flowing. The Romans correctly took advantage of a discovery and made these baths From the ground up, brick by brick. Hot room, cold room, dressing room. Massage room, steam room, cold room, gymnasiums. Separate massage , by sex. Gate valves for flow control, the big soaking pool lined in lead. Still no leaking. Hoards of silver and gold coins found here on display. Ha, the water still rises from the earth, goes into the Roman built overflow Channel, thru 12 x 12 lead slide gates they created and It overflows in to the Avon River. Out of a open spigot, you can drink a cup before you leave. Warm, slightly cloudy, and a Mineral taste. It was fine, I didn't fill my water bottle. Wasn't that good. This was a not to be missed experience.

This is why I took the trip from London to Bath and it was well worth! The architecture and history are incredible! They have done a very nice job with the experience including the visuals recreating the past, the audio guide and the museum displays which transport you to 2000 years ago when this was first built. The architecture and engineering that it took to build this is truly amazing given when it was built. Also amazing to see how the Romans knew the benefits of exercising and more interestingly the value of alternating saunas and cold baths and we are just reawakening to that as a wellness tool.

This Roman Baths are interesting and they provide a 1-2 hour informational tour that takes you deep into the Roman history of when this was built, the artifacts that were discovered, and what Bath was like before it was modernized. Excellent for historians or people who love Roman culture. The outdoor bath is the prettiest area for taking photos in. You definitely don't feel like your in England anymore here with it's true Roman essence, architecture, and history lessons. I recommend for families. It's a perfect tour for those with lots of family travelling. And it's right in the city center of Bath.

Absolutely incredible landmark and piece of history. Left behind by the romans and beautifully preserved in Bath, England since then. Anyone into history would love checking this place out. Loads of shops & restaurants nearby as well.

I have always heard such nice things about Bath as a city and the Roman Baths as an attraction and I was certainly not disappointed. The view of the baths coupled with the towering cathedral in the background is something to behold - I couldn't stop taking pictures! You should allow yourself about 2 hours to fully experience the exhibits. They have nice audio guides that complement the exhibits well, so take advantage. I happened to be here on a day where they were cleaning the baths, so a bit of bright orange mineral growth floating around and workers in the baths, but it didn't distract too much. Buy tickets online in advance to avoid lines and ensure you get entry!

In 2019 I came to bath with my daughter for her 21st birthday as she have been reading a lot about this side of the country. It was my first time learning about the Roman bath and we went to see it. I was confused to why the water is green and I found out it's the same water since the romans hence why no one should swim in it or touch it or drink it. ( I did see few people back then touching the water) This time I came with my younger one who is 19 years old so she can see it. She loved it and we enjoyed walking around. Relearning about the Roman baths again. I honestly advice everyone to go and see this place it's a definite go for it. Please don't touch the water or drink it. We saw today a gentleman who drank from it. I pray he doesn't get super sick as it's filled with bacteria. I have see a mother and her kids touching the water. Stay safe everyone and enjoy the beautiful history!

The Roman Baths are a very unique experience. Ancient history is not really my favorite part of history, but I was convinced to go, and I am glad. Seeing a UNESCO World Heritage Site was amazing. They did a great job showing videos of what may have been happening in the rooms on projections that blended well with the excavated portions. I was not impressed with the multimedia set though. It was hard to hear at times with how busy it was and no headphones or even Bluetooth option. There are a lot of places in the UK with more personalized sets that do not require an extra hand to hold it and do have headsets, so I hope the Roman Baths eventually get those. If you have a chance, I would recommend seeing the baths.

The whole city of bathe was beautiful i loved the architecture of the buildings. the roman baths were incredible, such a great experience

A decade after my first visit, and nearly half a decade since my last visit, I had the chance to take my partner back to the city that I am absolutely smitten with (... I'm still trying to figure out how I can move here). Visiting the Roman Baths was one of the few things on our To Do list (unfortunately, we came during the day and really meant to come closer to closing time when they light the torches - it changes the atmosphere entirely! PRO TOP: if you can, do one of the Torchlit Summer Evening events here!). So much has continued to improve since the first and last times I visited, that it was even more enchanting than I remembered. I have never felt more aware of or awed by history or architecture like I was whilst I was here; the audio guided tour (taken at your own pace) is both informative and fun - and you definitely don't need to commit to listening to everything; both The Great Bath and the Sacred Spring are absolutely stunning, the color of the water is unlike anything I've seen elsewhere, and that you get to go soooooooo close to the Great Bath it's wild; the museum area has some of my favorite mind boggling things about the baths (like the area where they've reconstructed the actual Temple Courtyard that you can travel through on the suspended walkway); but, the Terrace is actually my favorite place to be - you can see the pool of water below, the magnificent Abbey next door, the magnificent Abbey reflected in the pool below, and you're surrounded by all this amazing bath stone. I always feel caught up in the moment when I'm standing there. And, of course, you can drink the water at the end of your tour. You don't have to, of course, but when in Rome... I mean, Bath. I love this spot. This is an absolute must every time I come back to the city. I come from a really touristy area and we have people travel all over the world to see our lighthouse. I understand firsthand that sometimes when you're so close to something its wonder can be lost on you. I hope the folks of Bath don't ever feel that way about what they have going on here.

A must see! It was the Sunday of the Queen's Jubilee and with the crowds making it hard to see the parade Thursday and storms in the forecast, we made a decision to take the train out somewhere different. We first planned on going to Wales, but the Great Western Railway guy at Paddington Station recommended Bath instead so we would have more time to explore given the high costs of train tickets. I took Latin in high school and learned about the Roman Baths, so it was nice to come here. It is so well preserved and laid out. Plenty of excellent photo opportunities here. There is a depth of information to read and they also have free audio guides, but being visual learners we just preferred to read to the descriptions. At the end, they let you taste some of the water from the baths (which must be filtered) in a cup. Another plus is that this site is nearly fully accessible for those with mobility issues, compared to the Tower of London. I think this is because the Romans valued those with disabilities more than medieval Europeans. There are both bus tours from London that include Bath as well as other sites like Stonehenge as well as the train that runs about every hour from London and stops here before Bristol. Just keep in mind, the trains can get very busy and were past capacity at the end of the Jubilee weekend. We learned you can book a seat if booking online, we didn't. However, we got lucky to have train riders give us their seats being people with disabilities.

The baths were a really neat experience and we were glad to be able to see a part of history. I also loved that they offered an audio guide (sadly we didn't have time for that since we were on a tour) and that you got to try some of the filtered bath water.

A five star visit which takes you back in time. We spent three hours going through this amazing structure dating back 2,000 years ago. We were in awe of the Roman Baths, a well-preserved thermae in the city of Bath, Somerset, England. There is a temple which was constructed on the site between 60-70AD in the first few decades of Roman Britain. Its presence led to the development of the small Roman urban settlement known as Aquae Sulis around the site. The Roman baths--was designed for public bathing It's amazing to learn how the Romans discovered hot springs underground, and naturally took advantage of it by building a public bath house . There are late 19th century carvings of Roman Emperors and Governors of Roman Britain on the terrace overlooking the Great Bath. Love the historical commentary on the audio guide which is given to all ticket holders! There are actors/ actress in costume to add ambiance. Don't miss it if you are in Bath, England!

I'd give it a 5 for historical significance; and would certainly do it again. The only reason for the 4 is crowd control. We went in late May, with a 10:00 entry time. Amazing that the Roman Baths are preserved from over 2,000 years ago - and there are so many artifacts. They don't do a movie up front to give you the history; so the best way is with the audio tour. The audio tour is thorough and timely; yet takes a while and people will clog up in front of key sites while they wait to finish. Having said that, great way to spend 2 hours.

So much history in this beautiful litttle town. I totally recommend you spend extra time at the baths and understand the history. I saw a few people that just flew through the bath and were left saying this sucks. I believe it is a spiritual space that people have been going to for thousands of years. The history of the place ROCKS

#SendMeBackSaturday The last segment of our Windsor Castle - Stonehenge - Roman Baths day trip from London was here at the Roman Baths in the city of Bath. I learned about Bath back in the glorious 80s because that's where the new wave band Tears for Fears came from. A UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1987, the city would have been a wonderful addition to the tour itself. Located in the beautiful Abbey Churchyard, this complex is one of the most famous and best preserved Roman baths in the world. It looked small from the outside, but it stretches underground so there's really plenty to see and learn inside. You can even feel the steam from the hot spring! From the terrace, views of the Great Bath were splendid despite the presence of algae. On certain spots, the Bath Abbey can be included as a lovely backdrop. It was a bright but cloudy afternoon when we visited so I spent some time trying to capture the reflection on the water. Several exhibits can be found along the way. The Sacred Spring is at the center of the site where many things have been thrown to as offerings back in ancient time. At the end of the tour was a fountain where we got to try the spa water - all 43 minerals and its curative power! A full day spent outside London came to an end as we took the 2.5-hour bus ride back. It was another fun-filled, historical trip for the family. We hope to make it back to Bath and explore the city as it seems to have a certain kind of charm. I don't know what it was but from the words of Tears for Fears - "something happens and I'm head over heels..."

Excellent experience even with the large crowd. Very educational if you use the audio guide. Audio guide was also easy to operate.

A neat historic thermae with the main attraction of the Great Bath. Visitors cannot enter the water, but can sample warm, spring water. The museum aspect of the temple showcases the history, artifacts, and inner systems of the baths. It took us less than an hour to follow the path that leads from the entrance out to the gift shop. Admission cost is on the pricey side and is variable depending on the month and day of the week. We had paid £25.50 per ticket for a 9 AM Tuesday slot. Early mornings are the best time to avoid the huge tourist crowds and to capture optimal shots. There is guest Wi-Fi with limited connectivity.

I took a day trip from London via train. No need to do a tour group. It is easy to take the train from London and find the place. You can buy your ticket online or you can buy it at the entrance. It is 26 pounds to go in. It will take about an hour to get through the whole area. It is very interesting to see the history of this place. At the end of your tour, you can drink some water from the hot springs. Not the green water you see in the pictures. It does taste a little different. if you are a history buff, this is a must. It may be a little boring for children.

A lot more than I expected. I had only seen photos of the outside pool/bath. But there's a lot more to the Roman bath complex, plus some interpretive displays. Plan on spending several hours here.

While I would say that you should visit this place at least once, I will also say that it can get a bit crowded and the whole experience itself is pretty short. It's great being able to see this Roman-era structure, though. I just tend to be the type who can't stand crowds and kind of zip through museums. We went to the Roman baths through a bus tour that comes from London so maybe that's why it was crowded because it meant that a lot of us came into the Roman Baths at the same time. I would highly suggest reserving a table at The Pump Room which is attached to the Roman Baths. From the grand dining room, you'll also get to see one of the Roman Bath fountains and get to look into the main baths. So had I known beforehand that you can do that, I'd say that I would've just skipped the Baths and just did the afternoon tea at the Pump Room (separate review on that.....tl;dr - it's great!).

I know the Roman Baths were the thing to come to while in Baths, but I feel like you could almost do without this experience. Essentially the museum just showcases the many different areas of the bath at the time as well as the history behind it. It took around 1.5-2 hours to "finish" the museum and for a wide majority of it, you are looking at the main outdoor bath area that everyone takes pictures of. I do have to say that I really appreciate the audio tour though because it helped contextualize everything a little bit more. Also each section was not that long so it didn't feel like you were listening to a lecture. By the way, there are pretty stunning views of Bath Abbey from this place. Hot Tip: Would recommend booking online before you come as the tickets do run out. Overall, would say that this is an okay experience but if you're into architecture and spas, this may or may not be your paradise.

A must stop in Bath. I booked this as part of a Viator tour. You go through the museum at your own pace and listen to an audio guide. It was really cool and there's a ton of awesome history! I'd highly recommend.

This world heritage site in Bath is the signature feature of the city and its namesake! And while it is a bit pricey, it's not an extortionist tourist trap in my opinion. That's because the site is quite large, and the audio guide is very thorough, meaning you can easily spend 2 hours here exploring and learning about the ancient Roman bath complex. Definitely worth a visit!

Fantastic ruins and wonderful place to bring kids for educational tour of ancient Roman site. I go very slowly through such places, and maximize time. 1.5 hours could have been a bit longer but had to catch a bus

The Roman Baths are a well-preserved thermae in the city of Bath, Somerset, England. A temple was constructed on the site between 60-70CE in the first few decades of Roman Britain. Its presence led to the development of the small Roman urban settlement known as Aquae Sulis around the site. This is a true gem of heritage, history and wonder that awaits you in the famous roman baths. It really transports yourself to the bygone days. The museum is very informative and testimonial as to how far advanced the romans were. A must do whilst visiting Bath.

Such an amazing place! Definitely an easy 5 stars! This is a must visit if you're in the town of Bath. Not only are the Roman Baths a beautiful place to visit, but it's quite an informative learning experience as well. This site is oozing with history and charm. The architecture at the Roman Baths, as well as the city itself, is definitely something to behold! As far as the tour goes, you are provided with an audio guide that is available in several languages, and you are able to go at your own pace. I particularly liked the interactive parts of the tour, where an actor playing someone from the time period explains each piece or artifact. Beware, though, even though we went on a weekday, this place was super packed, so during the weekends I'm sure it's pretty insane! But either way, you should definitely check this historical site out!

This place was GORGEOUS!! The architecture is fascinating, and it was such a cool opportunity to learn about so much Roman history in London, and see a real Roman Bath house! You can't bathe in here, but there's a touristy bath house next door (that looked amazing, but the wait was literally 3 hours when we got there). The audio guide is really informative and interesting! Would definitely recommend visiting! It also has really cool-looking moss growing on it lol

There is not much more to add to other reviews. A must do when visiting Bath. Well worth the admission with much to see and lots of interaction learning. Accessible for those with limited mobility with ramps and a lift Very crowded especially in the summer on my recent visit however doable Lots of spots to take photos too!

Ancient history has always fascinated me, but it's the mundane parts of history that truly capture my attention. My visit to the Roman Baths are a manifestation of this curiosity. While it seems obvious, the idea that this ancient (yet civilized) society commissioned such magnificent works as this facility, purely for the purpose of *bathing* (a concept that appears to have been mostly disregarded throughout Europe for a millennium) just staggers me. Take my word for it, and opt in for the audio tour. You will be as deluged with information as if you stood under the gaping mouth of the aquifer that to this day supplies this tremendous installation. The view from the gallery above the baths, with the stern yet eroded gazes of Roman Emperors peering down into the murky waters below, belongs on a postcard. Fortunately, you can buy one in the gift shop. My only unfulfilled wish is that someone, someday, publishes a book with translations of all the Roman Graffiti that has been discovered here, throughout Britannia, and other sites, such as Pompeii (seriously, if you want a laugh, Google "Pompeii graffiti", and find out just how little we have evolved over the past two thousand years).

What a city. Bath was more vabriant than I thought and it's old historic buding mixed with modern shops made this visit a delight. I received the audio tour and it was really easy to follow along. It was very warm inside just a warning. The Baths were beautiful and it the audio tour dis a great job at helping to take you back in time. Make sure you take a sip of water from the spring at the end of the tour!

This was a fantastic attraction in the center of Bath, UK. We went as it was opening to get tickets without the crowds. The audio tour was very informative and thorough. I liked that I could go at my own pace with each of the spots. The museum has a mix of artifacts from the Romans (jewelry, bones, utensils, letters, etc.) located throughout the different levels as well as the ancient Roman baths, benches, mosaics, geothermal heated water piping, etc. I liked seeing the geothermal heated water moving through the pipes and beneath the floor. The main bath, located outside, is a good depiction of what the entire complex may have looked like thousands of years ago. Overall, I really enjoyed seeing a piece of Roman history that still functioned today. I think it is a pretty unique experience and a must see if in Bath.

Some people are trying to ban Roman numerals, I say not on my watch. This is Where the Romans would clean themselves. £17.5 to enter, expensive, but this is the thing to do here apparently. It took me an hour to walk through everything, others might spend 90 mins here. Some areas too crowded with people, so some crowd control would have been good. The bath the size of a swimming pool is the main part and you circle around it through different rooms, from the top down. Free audio guides available.

About $20 (UK pounds) to see this ancient building / ruins, which dates back about 2,000 years, if you make the drive to Bath. You get an audio device like a really old cell phone to hang around your neck. It plays audio clips of the history as you walk through the building on a self-guided tour. They may also provide human-guided tours at certain times. Expect to dedicate at least two hours to the self tour if you listen to all the audio clips and look at the artifacts. You can't get into the hot spring baths, but based on the color of the water you probably won't want to. I found it very interesting and educational. Very interesting experience if you're into history and exploring other cultures. If that's not your thing, skip this event. Really no reason to drive to Bath at all if you're not coming for this experience.

Unforgettable experience. Enlightening illustrations of Roman life in Britain almost 2000 years ago. Audio tour well-designed to be as short or As long as listener wishes.

The Roman Baths are a big attraction in the City of Bath. It is located in the old city square right next door to Bath Abbey. Between the two, it is incredibly picturesque. I was lucky enough to visit the Baths while on a tour to a few other destinations on that day. I was in a group of about 50 and at the Baths is where we were let go for a few hours. Entering with our group was great. There was 50 of us and there was no wait. The tickets were already bought and the venue was ready for us when we go there. A tour is the way to go. Once we got in the Baths we were allowed to spend as much time as we wanted. When you enter, you get what looks like a toy phone and it has a keypad that describes what you are looking at so you can lead your own self tour. I honestly didn't use it and I didn't know when the last time it had been sanitized was. The Baths are beautiful, the architecture of the building leaves you in awe. It is absolutely gorgeous. The story behind the baths are very interesting and the tour is set up so it tells you all about the history of the baths. There are different rooms you can go into and you can go outside above the main pool for wonderful photos before heading down and either sitting next to the main pool or sitting in an alcove. Just and FYI, no you cannot touch the water. However, there is still some natural mineral water you can try that is offered as you leave. I tried it and didn't think it was too bad. I have had worse at the Fountain of Youth in Florida. However, my poor sister did not feel the same way and I don't think she finished her little cup. Overall, the Roman Baths are a great way to spend some time. I would allow a good 30 mins to a half hour depending on your level of attentiveness and ease of boredom. I honestly don't know the cost because it was factored into the day tour we did but when I looked up online I remember it being a fair price.

This World Heritage Site in the village of Bath "consists of the remarkably preserved remains of one of the greatest religious spas of the ancient world. The city's unique thermal springs rise in the site and the Baths still flow with natural hot water." Their website truly says it better than I ever could, but I CAN tell you about the experience. A ticket to enter ranges from about £15-20, depending on if you visit during a weekday or the weekend. Any child up to 18 years old can get in for only about £10. We thought it was totally worth it, as your ticket also comes with a free audioguide. We wandered around at our own pace and learned crazy facts about this historical spot. The audioguides really helped us appreciate everything we saw. There were a lot of people here, but that's only because it's an interesting spot. I also LOVED the surrounding town, which was full of cute book shops, candy shops, restaurants and more. Jane Austen was also from Bath, so there's a big flower display in the shape of one of her books, as well as a Jane Austen Center. Spend an entire day in Bath!

Definitely a cool site that was included in our Stonehenge tour. The tour inside is quite long, as it includes inside and out and is mostly only one way in and one way out. It can get humid and gross inside and at peak tourist season, downright dreadful. Historically, it is cool and they have some reenactment on screens throughout the tour. The town of bath itself was cobblestone and quaint. The Cornish pie shop is a MUST!

This is my second time visiting Bath. Great experience, very informative, and the hot springs is a cool experience. I'm glad they keep this place clean as I had not visited for over 10 years. I visited during off season so we were able to get tickets when we arrived and they let us in right away. It's worth it to come during off season just for photos alone. Like most tourist places, beware of inconsiderate people who may walk in front of you or get too close to you just to get a selfie. Tip: -If you come in October and the rain is on and off, make your way inside The Abbey which is right next door. Do a quick tour of the church while you wait for sunshine. It's free but you may donate whatever you have to the church.

Really great - highly recommend to anyone in the area! Recommend spending at least 2 hours because there is just woo much history and interactive information that you don't really want to speed through it!

Must see- worth the trip from London. When you enter you receive an audio guide that you can use throughout the tour for historical and architectural information. There is a ton to learn and the the site is absolutely stunning. You can also drink some of the spa water at the end- said to be great for you given the high mineral content.

I came here with my wife as we had 1/2 a day to spend in Bath, England. The Roman Baths are amazing and the history of the site not only dates back to ~70 AD but the reconstruction in the 1800's is also amazing history of the region. The site had numerous baths in the Roman era and even sacrifices were performed on the site. This place would have been a modern spa even by today's standards. The amount of artifacts is amazing, could not recommend higher.

Enjoyed the tour of the Roman Baths very much. There were so many people, but to be expected. I was able to get the photos despite the number of people that were about. I have an appreciation of the audio tour...and the staff was amazing. Appreciate that they were kind and helpful!

I mean, you can't as a tourist, come to Bath and NOT visit this. We came with a tour group so tickets were ready for us when we arrived and we were let right in. The architecture of the place is so cool and out of place when you think about how you're in England (which I associate with medieval type stuff) and then there are these roman buildings. I've also read and watched a ton of Jane Austen and other period films/books so that was a second level mind trip to be in a place I've heard so much about for years. I loved being able to try the waters and imagine what it would've been like to do so in the ancient days for your health. I was surpised at how many other rooms there were to see as well besides the main pool area. Though this is a must do, I didn't think it completely lived up to what waa said about it. We were told it would take hours to go through the museum and there was so much to see yada yada. That may be true if it wasn't so incredibly crowded. It was physically impossible to get a good look at anything. Even so it took us way less time to get through the place then most people claimed and I didn't feel like I missed out on anything. We also didn't do the audio guide that came with our tickets because of the crowd factor. You couldn't possibly enjoy it with so many people mindlessly clogging up the exhibits and walkways glued to their devices. You have to come here at least once but it might not be exactly the experience you'd expect.
