Overview

Discover Welsh history and landscapes on our Three Castles and Welsh Mountains tour. Starting in the vibrant city of Cardiff, we’ll view the iconic Cardiff Castle before reaching the 'fairy-tale' Castell Coch, a 19th-century gothic revival gem nestled in lush woodlands. Next, explore Caerphilly Castle, Wales’ largest fortress, famed for its moats and leaning tower, with a stop for lunch whilst admiring the views of one of Wales’ most impressive medieval structures. The journey continues with a scenic drive through the Brecon Beacons National Park, with its vast hills and rugged beauty - perfect for spotting local wildlife and immersing in Welsh legends. Finally, we reach Brecon, a charming market town where you can stroll along the peaceful canal side, which has often been voted Britain's prettiest canal, or visit the centuries-old Brecon Cathedral. With a mix of history, architecture, and natural wonders, this tour offers a perfect snapshot of Wales’ finest treasures.

It was a small group, which was nice. The guides and driver were excellent. Learned about some Welsh history and traditions. Beautiful countryside, especially the Brecon Beacons National Park.
