Great trip. Only "snag" - it was a long time in the minibus for my friend, who has long legs. Tight squeeze. However, he thoroughly enjoyed the scenery and places visited - his first time in Wales. Now wants to return for another trip, as soon as he can. Yes - excursion : Highly recommended.

The tour guide Chris is both knowledgeable and entertaining. All places of interest were covered with snippets of its history interlaced with his personal experiences. He clearly loves his job and that's a bonus as you won't feel like listening to someone reading from a scripted itinerary. My friends and I were happy with this tour. We decided he deserves a tip.

Wales is an amazing county!! This tour did an excellent job taking you everywhere. Chris was fantastic. Thank you Chris, we enjoyed the history and culture you shared with us. The views were breathtaking, the conversation in lighting and the National Park inspiring. We will have to return and spend more time in Wales, May even need to summit the mountain in Snowdonia. Thank for are gift Chris. Such a personal touch.
