All the cities are well-connected by train and road. Start your tour with Bristol, that can be reached via Bristol Airport, which provides both domestic and international flights. From Bristol, Bath is just a 12 minute train journey away. From Bath, you can take a train to Exeter which takes around 1 hour 20 minutes, and then another train from Exeter to Plymouth which takes around 1 hour.

Accommodation and Booking:
All these cities have a wide range of accommodations to choose from, whether that be luxury hotels, charming bed and breakfasts, or holiday rentals. It is advisable to book your accommodations well in advance, particularly during the peak summer months or around Christmas time, especially in Bath.

Clothing and Essentials:
Pack according to the season. Comfortable walking shoes are a must due to the cobbled streets in many parts of these cities. If you're visiting in summer, pack light clothing, sunglasses and don't forget the sunscreen. In the cooler months, a jacket or coat, scarf, gloves, and a warm hat are recommended.

Health and Safety:
These cities are generally safe to visit. However, it's always wise to have travel insurance for any health emergencies. Ensure you have all necessary medications and if visiting in winter, prepare for colder weather, which may affect people with certain health conditions.

Local Etiquette and Respect:
