Occasionally, newly listed offerings may be prioritized and appear higher in the list. The specific placement of these new listings may vary.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What travellers are saying
- Jose R3 contributionsMike, our tour guide was wonderful. Very informative and good fun. We absolutely loved our tour and have been recommending it to everyone.
Even better if....there was a loo stop half way through.Written 3 December 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- tpbelBelfast, UK637 contributionsI have travelled with Rabbie’s many times in the UK and this trip did not disappoint. A lovely day spent in the Cotswolds and then Oxford. A good amount of time was given to explore at each stop. I find Rabbie’s excellent value for money and will travel with them again soon.Written 29 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Theresa H2 contributionsGreat tour from start to finish and! Duncan the guide was welcoming and very knowledgeable and described everything in an easy going but informative manner.
Would recommend this to anyone coming to BristolWritten 6 December 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - Kayla PBristol, UK15 contributionsTobias the Butcher took us on a great spooky ghost tour of Bristol. We really enjoyed it. As there's so much history in Bristol we'd love to go on another tour, an extended or part two version of this one. We noticed The White Hart and the old Odeon cinema weren't on the tour - and there are plenty of other ghoulish cold spots in Bristol - so if you do another tour, we'll definitely come. (group of 8 of us Saturday 30th Nov). Thanks!Written 3 December 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- Laura R2 contributionsReally interesting tour. Great views and very informative.
Great way to tour the city in your own leisurely time.
The very last bit of the tour is very steep which we were not expecting but we made it to the top for spectacular views.Written 30 September 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

He was excellent. He explained well and ensured our safety as we cycled along the roads & people. We are so glad we signed up for this tour.Written 26 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- difalexCheshire, UK6 contributionsNicely pitched - friendly, informative, intuitive. A good mix of very old and relatively new history. Excellent value at £3ish per mile!Written 12 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Elinor S2 contributionsWe really enjoyed the tour. We liked that you could do at your own pace and interesting details given. We also did some of the detours and recommended stops - Watershed/Toto's. There is so much to see and do here!Written 12 February 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Vacation380751295201 contributionLovely guy with a great manner. I was very impressed with his sensitive coverage of some difficult subject matter (slavery, graffiti).
Fascinating tour and despite being relatively local I saw and learned loads that was completely new to me.Written 14 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Safari137591998908 contributionsWe toured with Rabbie’s from Bristol to the south of Wales...what an amazing trip! We enjoy the small group tours for many reasons: comfort, ability to go a bit off the beaten track, and the camaraderie with fellow travelers and the driver/guide. From along the southern coast of Wales out to St Davids and then back again through the Bannau Brycheiniog National Park, we visited many incredible places. Our driver/guide Kate was a delight. She was one of the most friendly, knowledgeable, and interesting people you could ever meet! She was also a very skilled driver and could navigate tiny backroads while telling fascinating history and tales. Kate, thank you so much for making our trip so incredibly fun!Written 20 September 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
