Look at Bath differently this Autumn 🍂

Perfect timing. Autumn’s here, Bath looks incredible, and you’ve been thinking about that team outing/friend gathering/family adventure that needs organizing. Good news: we’ve already done the hard work. The route’s planned, the clues are set, and those golden autumn days are calling.

Here’s something different for your group.

You know those hidden details in Bath that most people walk straight past? We’ve built a trail around them. Your crew will discover things like the hand-prints of famous visitors, hidden in plain sight – the kind of spots that make people say “How long has that been there?” Trust us, even the locals on your team won’t have noticed half of this.

How it actually works 🏴‍☠️

No tour guide, no rigid schedule, no shuffling in a line. It’s self-guided – you set the pace, choose your stops, keep things flowing. Everyone gets the clues on their phones from Captain Bess (our pirate guide who keeps things moving). You can split into teams if you want some friendly competition, or stick together. Your call.

The details you need ☠️

Built for adults and takes between 1½–2½ hours depending on your pace (and pub stops – we’ve marked the good ones). The clues are properly challenging – enough to get people working together without anyone feeling lost.

You’ll follow treasure maps on your phones, solve cryptic clues that actually make sense once you crack them, and discover parts of Bath that’ll genuinely surprise people. Captain Bess keeps everyone engaged with messages that hit the right balance between helpful and entertaining. It just… works.

An illustration of how Treasure Hunt Bath works

“We went on the Treasure Hunt Bath with a team from work (20 of us split into teams of 5). We had the best day. The clues were interesting and challenging, plus we got to see the whole city at our leisure, and learned about its history. We stopped for lunch and took our time and the feedback from everyone was brilliant. I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants a team day out or just to learn more about the city. The support from Ian and the team was brilliant as well and it all went very smoothly.”

Why it works for groups 🤝

You know what makes a good team activity? Something where everyone contributes, nobody’s checking their phone (except for clues), and there’s natural conversation starters built in. That’s this.

Book it, share the link, turn up. We send you an organiser’s pack that covers everything – meeting points, timing suggestions, leaderboards. The route’s accessible and there are natural break points if people need them. Full details for team organizers here 📋.

Quick logistics: Works for 2-100+ people, rain or shine. Most groups between 1½–2½ hours including stops. Questions? We’ll sort it.

“This was such a brilliant experience the technology was simple and easy to use. We had so much fun, the clues were just the the right level of challenge and the distance was very easy. The route was very interesting learnt lots about Bath and it was a perfect way to get introduced to a new city or just have a pleasant walk with your partner or fiends. Well worth the money! Cant wait to try the other cities.”
