What to expect
Llandudno Railway Station
Meeting point. We start out tour after a briefing, and meander through llandudno and its promenade before taking the dive of the orme
Great Orme
A magical drive around Great Orme's one-way road with its spectacular mountain drop off into the sea. This is the longest coastal one way road in the UK. Keep an eye out for rock climbers on the limestone cliffs, fishermen casting off the rocks, an abundance of wildlife, birds, wild goats, and often dolphins and seals, as well as views towards the Snowdonia mountains and Anglesey
Castell Conwy
We pass through the ancient village of Conwy where you will get the see one of the most beautiful castle settings in Europe
Bethesda
View the guarding Welsh Dragon of Snowdonia, hidden in woodland overwatching for invaders to our lands. (limited parking - if parking space unavailable we have to bypass this stop)
Zip World Penrhyn Quarry
Next, you'll head on to Penrhyn Quarry for a chance to see how our mining history has moved with the times and merged with the adrenaline adventure industry of today's generations. Once the world's largest slate quarry to now the world's fastest zip line!
Nant Ffrancon Pass
We enter the Snowdonia national park, and the glicial valley of Nant FFrancon. The mountains and lakes here start to envelope us, and the senery takes a dramatic change
Llyn Ogwen
Another majestic stop with breathtaking scenery, however next to the lake of Ogwen we learn about a historic find at the lake which is linked to the legend of King Arthur and Excalibur
Sygun Copper Mine
No visit to Snowdonia would feel complete unless you ventured down into one of its many thousands of mines from all the ages. Here we visit a self guided tour of an old copper mine and its history and workings are revealed.
Beddgelert
Wonder the quaint mountain village of Beddgelert where you will learn the legend of Gelert the faithful hound and how the village has it historic name. And take a walk to the historic monument where Gelert was laid to rest.
Yr Wyddfa
Stop at Snowdonia viewpoint. Know as one of the UK's most spectacular views, this 360 panoramic view of snowdonia's horseshoe, gwynant valley and lakes, and the glyder's make it a photographers dream.
Pen-y-Pass
Another of snowdonias spectacle. Pen y pass is one of Wales most beautiful drives. A V-shaped valley, dramatic scenery on the drive on route to Llanberis
Castell Dolbadarn
A few minutes walk through woodland are worth the views alone. Dolbadarn Castle, built by the Welsh Prince Llywelyn the Great during the early 13th century is at the base of the Llanberis Pass and overlooks Padarn Lake. The castle was important to both militarily and as a symbol of Llywelyn's power and authority.
A4244
A quick photo opportunity, looking up the beautiful lake of Padarn towards Mount Snowdon
Menai Suspension Bridge
Built in 1820, the worlds first large scale suspension bridge. We take a drive over this iconic bridge and a stroll under its arches and breathing surroundings.
North Wales
A drive along the beautiful North Wales coastal road, enjoying the mountains, coastal beaches, and scenic views on our return leg to Llandudno
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
