It's so fascinating! And the museum does a great job of helping you understand what it was like in Roman times with videos and helpful free audio guides. They even have a special audio guide for children and one by Bill Bryson which makes you really feel like you are walking around with an expert.

Interesting place to understand about the Romans in Bath. Make sure you do the guided tour on the hour after exiting the museum section of the place. Our tour guide was wonderful and passionate when explaining everything.

The tour was very informative, with the option of taking a free audio around on the tour. I preferred walking around without the audio personally but it was a nice touch. It was lovely sitting by the main bath in the sun. Word of warning: don't taste the water at the end!

This palace was fascinating! Highly recommend visiting, and you should get the audio guide, they have a whole lot of different audio tours on the same guide depending on what you are interested in, like the architecture, excavations works, history of the baths, and even an awesome commentary done by Bill Bryson, who is amazing!! The excavations are continuing, so it will be different every time we go back. I look forward to taking my children here to see this amazing ancient history.

Not what I expected. Much bigger and very informative. Didn t use the speaking tour device. I found it heavy and cumbersome, but just to walk around myself using the information boards and plaques was adequate. A really good visit.

Take your time traveling back to the Roman times. It's very easy to visualize using a bit of imagination and the modern technology that has recreated the atmosphere. Don't be in hurry, grab a free recorded guide and relax and listen as you are transported to the past.

Awesome Roman site. Wasn t sure what to expect. The design of this site allows you to really get close to all parts and understand what it may have looked like when it was built. You can even see the spring where the water originates. The audio tour is included in the fee which is a nice touch.

Expensive as outings go, but well worthwhile. Free audio guids catering to different levels - children version as well as for adults- make it really nice just to wonder at your own pace. There is children area for little ones to relax and draw if they want to or to dress as a Roman. The museum is restored beautifully and there are a lot of historical artifacts to look at. We have been 4 times in the last year and planning to go again. My six-year old lives the place to bits.

I always believed that architecture can tell you many stories and imagination can add up the spice needed... The Roman Bath was a hidden gem for me in my last trip to London... Bath is one of the most beautiful city i have been to... It's one of the oldest cities in London and it's architecture sure takes you to the tour of what a marvel European architecture is....

Fantastic morning spent wandering around the Roman Baths, excellent presentation and information around the tour. A hand held audio device gives you the descriptions and stories, and drink the water I really liked it wish I had it on tap

Take a time out and relax at the steps

My husband and I had a wonderful time touring the Roman Baths. There was lots of information and supplemental displays that helped us learn more about the baths. The audio tour was very easy to use and was very informative. The ruins were wonderfully preserved. I saw many people touching the water even though they're not supposed to. I really enjoyed being able to drink the purified bathwater at the end of the tour. The place is busy and oftentimes we were shoulder to shoulder with people but it was worth it. A must not miss historical site.

Had a really nice time here, its full of history and insight to the romans. Alot bigger than it looks on the outside. Definitely worth a visit, absolutely stunning place to see. Cant wait to go back and visit again 10/10

Gorgeous, and not st all crowded. Some quite well preserved baths that really give you a sense of the scale and grandeur of the traditional Roman baths. A nice break from the crazy crowds of the more popular museums.

Very interesting museum that's incredibly well documented. Loads of detailed information about the exhibits can be gained from both signs as well as audio tours in several different languages.

Great

This was worth the stop since we were in Bath anyway. The tour is self guided and you get an easy to use handset to provide explanatory information. The staff was helpful and enthusiastic about their piece of history. The interpretation was well done. Worth the stop and time if yiy are in the area.
