Great taste of N. Wales

My sister and I loved our tour with Clive. He drove while speaking, which is amazing. We had gorgeous weather for October and that made it even better. It was a long day and you have to settle for not enough time at any one place but it’s a good taste of several sites. I wish it was possible to go up Mt. Snowden on the train but that would take too long.

I recommend this trip

An enjoyable trip with well presented narration. I would have liked to spend more time in Chester.

An enjoyable experience

Jordan was an excellent tour guide. He was informative and easy to talk to. He is a friendly and intelligent man with a good sense of humour.

The excursion was very warm; the driver is a sweetheart of a person. Mr. Mike. He treated us wonderfully. He didn't stop talking the whole trip, telling us everything. He poured his heart into narrating. A true professional.

Fine day in N Wales and Chester

Our trip to Conwy, Chester and Snowdonia was very enjoyable, our driver Steve was knowledgeable and jolly. The stops were just about long enough and we were helped by very fine weather. Recommended.
