We start our tour at our meeting point which is Llandudno railway station (red bus stop outside) immediately outside the station's main entrance. We depart at 8.30 am, so please be early.
After our introduction, we will hop onto our minibus and take a drive around Great Orme's one-way road with its spectacular mountain drop off into the sea. Showcasing nature, wild goats and birdlife, and often we see seals and dolphins, as well as limestone cliffs and caves and stunning views towards the mountains.
Amble the ancient and medieval castle town of Conwy to view the castle’s domineering and towering walls, whose magnificent towers stand tall over the beautiful estuary. Walk the marina, and visit the iconic world's first built suspension bridge. You'll never forget your visit to Conwy. Admission is free unless entering the main castle.
Take a walk around this world heritage site. After all these years, Caernarfon’s immense strength remains undimmed - a brute of a fortress. History comes alive at Caernarfon in so many ways – along the lofty wall walks, beneath the twin-towered gatehouse, the walk town’s narrow and colorful streets and stylishly redeveloped waterfront of the Menai.
Enjoy a tour of Portmeirion, wandering around the colourful renowned Italian style coastal tourist village set in stunning surroundings and gardens. There are shops, cafés, tea-rooms and restaurants. This is best described as an artful and playful village with a fantastic collection of architectural relics. Also known as a romantic, picturesque, relaxing and often enchanting village. A “happy relief” from the “rigid irrationalities and the calculated follies” of the modern world.
On the return trip, you'll drive through part of the Snowdonia National Park, where we will get to see some of its dramatic mountains and many lakes. Drive through mountain villages, stunning canyon gorges, and views to remember.
Snowdonia viewpoint is one of the most dramatic 360 panoramic viewpoints in the UK. all without having to hike to the summit.
Quirky and unique is the only way to describe our next visit. Known as the Ugly House, we stop here to learn of its history and how it came to be.
Discover the dramatic and beautifully captivating Swallow Falls. This cascading waterfall is majestic in its setting, where the force of water meets natural beauty.
Nestled in this unique location next to the flowing river and bridge, we stop off at the majestic location of Tu-Hwnt-I'r Bont, the second most photographed image in Snowdonia! All because of its spectacular and ever-changing appearance.
Relax and enjoy the drive down the Conwy valley on return to Llandudno
