Strictly Jane Austen: Expert Guided Tours of Jane Austen's Bath

About

Bath’s most Austen-tatious travel company - Expert Guided Tours of Jane Austen's Bath & unique curated experiences. 

Jane Austen is synonymous with Bath. This curated guided tour of the city she made her home brings Regency Bath to life and, thanks to Strictly Jane Austen’s experienced and knowledgeable guides, provides a unique and fascinating insight into Jane's life and times. 

Jane Austen made Bath her home from 1801 to 1806 when it was a vibrant city, a favourite haunt of fashionable society, and a popular spa resort, with celebrated dandy and leader of fashion in 18th-century Britain Richard "Beau" Nash acting as the city’s Master of Ceremonies.

The expert guides will take you back to the Bath Jane knew. Hear how Society’s glittering best of the day came to socialise in the city, drink the requisite three glasses of water from the Pump Room, bathe in the King’s Bath, stroll in Sydney Gardens and along the Royal Crescent - and of course endlessly dance and flirt at balls along the way!

Whether you are a passionate Janeite, an amateur historian keen to know more about the Regency period, or simply curious to explore the UNESCO World Heritage city of Bath, these guided walking tours are a wonderful way to enjoy one of the most beautiful cities in England.

Easy to book, private guided walking tours, from Friday to Sunday.

In 2025, Strictly Jane Austen will be marking Jane Austen's 250th birthday year with two six-day celebrations in the heart of Bath, the city she called home. Enjoy a unique experience indulging in the charm and elegance of Austen’s era with immersive events, guided tours, and themed activities, all while staying in the fabulous, five-star Gainsborough Bath Spa hotel.
