This private day trip is a great way to experience some of the must-see attractions near Bath. After a drive through the English countryside you will have a guided walking tour around the cathedral city of Wells, England's smallest city and home to the 2nd oldest working clock in the world and Europe's oldest residential street. After lunch you will get a tasty insight into the area's most famous creation - Cheddar Cheese and witness some of the region's most spectacular scenery with a visit to Cheddar Gorge, England's largest gorge. The road through this gorge was recently awarded the title of the most scenic drive in Britain. Throughout the day you will be looked after by a local guide who was born and grew up in the West Country.

Daniel was very kind and knowledgeable, and he tailored the trip to our specific needs (some mobility issues). We took a lovely walk along Wells Cathedral and Bishop's Palace, and then had lunch at a lovely English pub. From there we continued on to Cheddar to learn about the cheese-making process, and then headed to the Gorge, ending with a lovely look-out point on Somerset and the ocean. On the way, Daniel made sure to explain local geography, vegetation, history and myth, and even spoiled us with the most delicious local strawberries. I would not think twice before booking a trip with Daniel, as a great time is guaranteed!

This was my second time booking Bath Insider Tours and, once again, Daniel did not disappoint! The first time was a Cotswold Tour and this time we covered Wells Cathedral and Cheddar Gorge. Wells Cathedral may be my favorite Cathedral now! Daniel had a few surprises up his sleeve and I came home with some cider and cheese, great photos, and memories to last a lifetime. I especially like how Daniel shows videos of the places so you can see how it was featured in films.

Daniel is your best mate in Bath who is happy to show you the less troden places. Started with an amazing view over the top of Bath. Well's was a beautiful city and i enjoyed the variety of call outs (Hot Fuzz being filmed, long jump, beautiful architecture and historic insight). Unfortunately, the Cheddar Visitor center was closed (which I was given pleanty of notice about). But the alternative cider/cheese farm was an unexpectedly excelent visit. Cheddar Gorge is a beautiful piece of landscape and I appreciated Daniel quickly changing the tour when the route was a bit wet. Really enjoyed the day, highly recommended
