I really enjoyed this tour of Cardiff. It provided a great overview of Cardiff City centre, the history of the castle and the Bute family together with some informative information about the Welsh language. including a discussion about how to pronounce my name. Eugene was entertains and personable and made an effort to converse with everyone in the group. He also showed his diplomatic skills when the group was unexpectedly joined by an early morning drinker. Here's hoping plenty of Swifties join his tours next week.

It's easy to walk about and just look at the sights. But a tour like this gives context and a greater knowledge of the sights and history that goes with it . The tour was long enough to give a taste of central Cardiff and Eugene was more than willing to offer suggestions as to what else you could do. We took his suggestion up to try a traditional Welsh breakfast with LaverBread ! Let's just say it's probably an acquired taste but as a one off worth trying !!

Amazing tour! Eugene was super nice and gave us a lot of Cardiff inside! Love it! 100% recommended. 2 hours of waking and talking visiting the most relevant spots in the city to get in a nutshell all you need to know about it

2hr 15m walk around all tbe sights with Eugene. He pitches the content perfectly with his commentaries, giving all the need to know without it becoming information overload. The time flew by and we saw all aspects of the city from the shopping districts, to the market, to the stadium etc. Highly recommended

Knowledgeable, friendly and engaging guide. Weather wasn’t great but he made the tour enjoyable. He had some recommendations about where to go to eat, and what else to see in Cardiff. Would highly recommend.

We had a great tour with Remo as our guide. He was very friendly and informative. Would recommend to anyone with a few hours to spare in Cardiff.

Did the FOGO free, guided-walking tour and what a great introduction to the City of Cardiff and Wales as a whole! Full of history and centrally-located, I would recommend this to any traveler new to Cardiff as a great way to learn about the city and it’s rich history and get familiar with the area! 5 stars!

If you have spare 2hrs in Cardiff this is a must. If you don't have spare 2hrs - well, change your schedule because you won't regret going on this tour with Eugene! You'll get a mixed bag of all sorts of trivia and historic facts served with Welsh vocab dressing. Delight!

Atalanta403

Such an amazing introduction to Cardiff and all things Welsh! Our host Eugene led us efficiently through the arcades, parks and paths on a morning adventure. I would highly recommend his tour which will hit the top sites and allow you to go a bit deeper with more knowledge and confidence. His easy going nature allows for everyone in the group to contribute and appeals to all age groups. History, sports, language, culture and government are all covered over the 2 1/2 hours. This tour had so many take aways for us. We loved it!
