About the tour
Discovering the best of North Wales, we ride amazing railways, visit ancient castles and wander beautiful gardens, each one a testament to the ingenuity and creativity of the Welsh people.
Journey through stunning landscapes on the Ffestiniog Railway and ascend to new heights on the Snowdon Mountain Railway. Step into the unique village of Portmeirion losing yourself in its whimsical charm and explore the medieval Caernarfon Castle, where knights once roamed and battles raged.
Prepare to be swept away by the towering mountains, sparkling lakes, and lush green valleys of Wales that are waiting to be explored.

Itinerary
Our holiday begins in the 'Queen of Welsh Resorts', Llandudno, where we meet at our hotel. Nestled on Wales' rugged north coast and surrounded by the backdrop of Snowdonia National Park, this is an ideal base for our explorations. During a drinks reception, we get to know our group and Tour Manager before a four-course dinner in our hotel's award-winning restaurant this evening - the ideal start to our holiday.

This is an amazing tour and very good value for money. The excursions were fantastic and the hotel did a great job with looking after us. Only point that I would like to make is that, in my opinion we didn't have enough time touring the castles. I would of liked to have more time exploring them. But overall it was a fabulous trip. I would definitely recommend.
