- Bry G3 contributionsDefinitely worth the small price of admission!Popped in before visiting the Roman Baths and very glad we did! Was advised when we bought our tickets that a free tour was just starting that we were welcome to join. The volunteer delivered an amazingly detailed (and humourous at times!) tour and guided us through all the history of the Abbey. A great experience and lovely place to visit.Thank you for visiting Bath Abbey. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your visit and that the tour of our medieval building was enjoyable. We strive to provide a memorable experience for our visitors and appreciate your positive feedback.

- Amy CLondon, United Kingdom10 contributionsCallum was wonderful!I went on the Tower Tour with Callum today at 12pm. It was Callum's first ever solo tour and be was absolutely fantastic! Really knowledgeable, so chatty and just very warm and relatable. It was clear he was passionate about the Abbey and its history and it was a wonderful experience. He also gave really nice local tips for places to go/things to see in Bath. 10/10! Worth every penny. :)Thank you for visiting Bath Abbey.

- Alice K5 contributionsBath Abbey Tower TourExploring Bath on a 2 day visit, and went into the Abbey - which is beautiful. But best of all we went on the Tower Tour- over 220 steps to climb, but in stages. You get to see the bell tower, the clock, and inner aspects of the roof, before amazing views over the city. Jasper and Callum were our guides… incredibly knowledgeable and explained everything we saw brilliantly. Don’t miss itThank you for visiting Bath Abbey! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your visit and had a great time during the tour led by Callum and Jasper up the Tower.

- SportycbWatford, United Kingdom31 contributionsPlenty to do and seeWe didn't do the full tower tour as my partner doesn't like heights and gets claustrophobic but still plenty to see. Make sure you join the floor tour which is at no extra cost and the guide was very witty and knowledgeable. The little museum was very interesting too. Only negative was that you can't take photos during any recital, which is a tad annoying if you are pushed for time and don't have a spare half an hour.Thank you for visiting Bath Abbey.

We went into the bell tower, went into the area BEHIND the clock, went into the “spy room” (sorry, no spoilers from me), saw the actual bells, and ended up on the roof. 50 minutes, a LOT of steps, but well worth it.Thank you for visiting Bath Abbey.

- Steven TElgin, United Kingdom18 contributionsStep it up tour.....step right up, highly recommended!We were limited on time, but undertook the Step it up tour, which includes the 212 steps to the very top. Stephen conducted the tour and was a great tour guide, witty and full of interesting facts about the abbey, allowing plenty of time for photos during the tour. This really was one of the highlights of our time in Bath. We experienced some unique views and the visit to the back of the clock and the bell room was just brilliant! Highly recommended. The climb up isn't too demanding, with various stops on the way, which allows for a short breather.Thank you for your feedback on your visit to Bath Abbey.

- amanda cCannock, United Kingdom101 contributionsBath AbbeyWe visited Bath Abbey on a recent trip to Bath. There is an entrance charge and not a voluntary donation like other places of worship in the world. I guess this entrance fee wa because there was a small museum in the basement which we didn't know about until we got inside. We chose not to go up to the tower as there was an organ recital playing so it was full of people and may have been uncomfortable with the amount of people. The Abbey itelf is very ornate and has the bonus of a Discovery museum which adds to the history of the city as well as the history of a Benedictine monk. There was a huge world balloon in the centre of the abbey as there was information on climate change in the abbey. I personally thought this was totally inappropriate and not in keeping with the history or the original features of the abbey. We enjoyed our visit to the abbey.Thank you for your kind words. We are delighted that you had a positive experience visiting Bath Abbey and particularly enjoyed the organ recital. We strive to provide exceptional experiences for our visitors and appreciate your feedback. We hope to welcome you back in the future. Thank you also for your feedback regarding our Climate Change exhibition as part of our our Treasuring Creation festival, I’ve spoken to my colleague Revd Stephen Girling. He’s very happy for you to contact him by e-mail through the Abbey website at www.bathabbey.org and he’ll be pleased to respond to the concerns you have raised.Written 5 January 2024This response is the subjective opinion of the management representative and not of Tripadvisor LLC.Visited September 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 2 October 2023

We visited today. We had to wait a little to get in due to them restricting to 40 people inside at any one time.
On entering there was hand gel and you were then directed to a desk. We knew a donation of ÂŁ5 was suggested per person but in every other cathedral or church we have visited this has been at our own discretion and payable at any point during the visit. It felt it was forced upon us at the check in desk which felt quite uncomfortable. As a place of worship first and foremost it felt uncomfortable and frowned upon if anyone were to suggest not making the donation there and then or at least that was how we felt.
The inside of the abbey is beautiful and the ceiling is especially stunning. Most of the cathedral is inaccessible at the moment due to heavy building work. This looked quite interesting but I think they could enhance this by adding more viewing windows as everyone seemed very interested at the one available along with some more information on what they’re doing too. The abbey itself did feel incredibly small, whether this was due to how much is closed off at the moment I’m not sure.
Our trip was nice but felt tainted by the initial approach over donations which felt very forced, given the amount of work going on maybe they think no one will think it’s worth the £5 by the time they get to the end, who knows! Personally I don’t think it was worth that but hope the money is going towards preserving it for the future.

Dear sallysO8534EQ,
Thank you for visiting and for leaving a review.
Our welcome team works hard to make sure everyone feels welcome. We're therefore disappointed to hear that your first impression wasn't to our usual standards and we will be following up this feedback with the team.
We are glad that you enjoyed the beauty of the building when you were inside. The building works are saving the Abbey's floor from collapse and is a very exciting and important project. We have chosen to remain open (rather than close entirely!) so that our congregation and visitors like yourself can continue to use and enjoy the Abbey, but it does mean that there can sometimes be noise from the construction and that some areas are inaccessible (around 1/3 of the site). We do hope you can visit again to see the completed project which is scheduled to be completed around Spring 2021.
We have taken your comment on board and are installing another viewing window to the works over the coming weeks. We are also in the process of creating interpretation boards to go inside the Abbey.
Thank you for supporting the Abbey and your generosity means that we can fund our mission and ministry and help preserve the history of our church for everyone to enjoy.
Thank you again for leaving a comment and for taking the time to visit. We do hope you can come back and visit us once the project is completed and you can see the Abbey in its entirety.

We visited the Abbey on a rainy day and it was well with a visit. We queued for around 20 minutes due to social distancing (be aware that they close the queue early, before the last admission time). The stonework is superb, particularly the ceiling and we enjoyed reading the memorials inside. There was an exhibition of Diptychs by Bath Artist Sue Symons depicting the life and miracles of Jesus which I also enjoyed. Admission is free with a suggested donation.

What a thoroughly interesting site, spent a good while looking around the place, which is worth a visit in itself. We came back for the next available TOWER TOUR which was very reasonably priced and the absolute highlight of my day - you need to be able bodied and physically fit to climb the steep and very numerous stairs of the spiral staircase, but you are well rewarded. Very knowledgeable guides, small groups (due to space confines) and amazing content - sitting behind the clock face, on top of the Fan ceiling, in the Bell Room and on the roof of the tower with its stunning views of Bath are BIG highlights. I'd give this 6 out of 5 if I could!

My partner & I visited Bath for the day on Friday 01.10.2021. Unwilling to pay high prices for The Roman Baths, we opted for Bath Abbey (free) and the tower tour (ÂŁ10 each) at midday. Well worth the money for a 50minute amusing and very informative tour of the tower, stopping along the way up the 212 steps to be told of where we were in the tower and its history. Scarlett knew her stuff and assured us of how safe we were as we clambered up the (sometimes very narrow) spiral staircase to reach the top... and what views! We were taken behind the clock face (see pic) and were also taken into the bell chamber and given its history and heard the bells chime on the half hour. WELL WORTH A VISIT,

I arrived early at the meeting point for the tower tour but the guide was already whisking the other 7 visitors towards the Tower steps. I needed to leave a bag and before I turned round the rest had disappeared upwards at an alarming pace! I’m a fairly fit seventy year old but I still asked the guide to slow down.
He gave a fairly full account but it was obvious he did not want to engage in casual chat but wanted to get to the top as quickly as possible ( and down again )
There was little evidence of inter personal skills and no humour and he could so easily have pointed out landmarks from the top. We were back down in less than 35 minutes although the pleasant ladies on the desk had said it should take up to fifty.
I was expecting more warmth & engagement - he told me he was a third year chemistry student .
A pity, it should have been so much more enjoyable and the ladies on the desk said they would follow it up...
Disappointiing!

We wandered in here almost by chance on our visit to Bath today. The plan was to pop in if it was free, but having experienced it, it's well worth paying for (even though if the donation is optional!). The interior is absolutely stunning with incredible architecture and stained glass windows. So many little stories to unearth.
However, by far the best part of the visit was speaking to one of the tour guides (Patricia) who educated me on so much about the site, including how to read the stained glass windows, and the incredible work they did with recent renovations. It was like having a personal history lesson and I recommend anyone who visits, try to explore the fountain of knowledge these guides have. It really brings it all to life.

Situated next to the Roman baths, it's such a stunning Abbey. They were working on the Abbey so you only paid a small price.
The ceiling is beautiful and very ornate. The wood carving of angles playing instruments are amazing again so detailed.
It's very peaceful and calming.

Hi Karen,
Thank you very much for taking the time to leave such positive feedback on your recent visit to Bath Abbey. I'm really glad you enjoyed your visit, as you noticed we are currently part way through a major project to restore and stabilise our centuries old floor, which had been in danger of collapse. The work will also include the installation of an underfloor heating system, which will draw its heats from the warm waters leaving the Roman Baths, and the creation of a new Music School and Discover Centre for visitors.

The Bath Abbey Tower is only available as part of an organised tour. As a non-religious person I was worried that a tour might be very preachy, but I needn't have worried because this was a really fun tour which focused on the tower, the bells and the local surrounding, and was not at all religious.
The tower is 212 steps up a very windy and narrow stairs, so is probably not suitable if you struggle with mobility, are afraid of heights or claustrophobic.
There are several stops on the tour, one in the bell ringing room, one in a very small room behind the clock face, one above the internal roof of the Abbey (with its spy hole) and another in the room that houses the bells themselves. And then to the very top of the tower, with great views out across Bath (we were fortunate with a very clear day).
Would definitely recommend this tour for a fun way to spend about 90 minutes in Bath, the two tour guides were also fab and kept the tour light but informative.

We only had to queue for 10 mins, but I expect this could be longer at different times of day.
Very beautiful inside and out, there were building works occurring at the same time which we were warned of and they were indeed loud. Some more information about the architecture and history of the building would be fab- maybe even some info to read as you wait outside would be good?
Did enjoy and would recommend.

There were no queues when we visited the Abbey (you don’t need to book to enter). Entry is free but a donation is politely asked for to help maintain this beautiful building.
The Abbey is stunning inside - especially the vaulted ceilings that are so intricate. The stain glass windows are beautiful.
We also did the Tower Tour which we booked when we arrived in the Abbey - we only had to wait 30mins to the next tour which was just enough time to have a look around the Abbey. There is a charge for this tour.
The Tower Tour was led by Emma, Ben 1 and Ben 2 and it was EXCELLENT!!! They were all very knowledgeable. They took us up 212 steps visiting the bell ringers room, the bells themselves, behind the clock and above the vaulted ceiling. We also walked along the main roof on both sides as well as the very top of the main tower. The views are spectacular! If you are able and/or comfortable climbing narrow spiral staircases this tour shouldn’t be missed.

Are the spiral staircase enclosed? Or can you see what is below you?
Written 19 May 2015
I am a Tower Tour Guide at Bath Abbey. The spiral stairs are enclosed within the Towers and being five hundred years old, they are not open tread. The stairs have been restored and are all in good condition.
You cannot see what is below you. If you are concerned, have a word with the Shop Staff who can arrange for you to see the stairs before you purchase your ticket.
