Wales Coast and Mountains - 2 days

Llandudno PierWe think this is a truly amazing tour to a part of the UK which has a completely different landscape and culture. Your driver/guide is very familiar with the wonderful areas that you will see, ranging from the quaint Roman city of Chester to the impressive mountain and coastal regions of North Wales, which form part of the Snowdonia National Park. You will even travel on an old narrow-guage steam-train from the old port of Porthmadog to the heights of Blanneau Ffestiniog and you will stay in one what we think is one of the best locations in North Wales, overlooking the ocean

 

TOUR HIGHLIGHTS:
Chester, North Wales Coast, Conwy Castle, Snowdonia Mountains, Steam Train Ride to Mountain
