A long day - but a great way to get a quick taste of Wales north country. Paul, our driver, expertly navigated the challenging roadways. His commentary on the area’s history and terrain were informative. Paul was also able to help us navigate each stop along the way so we could maximize our time in each area. I would strongly recommend this experience if you have a day.

We really enjoyed the tour and wouldn’t have been able to visit all of these locations if we tried to do it on our own. The logistics were seamless and well planned.
