Private Snowdonia & The 3 Castles Tour

We start the tour at our meeting point of Llandudno Railway Station (stop H) bus stop immediately outside with a departure of 8.30 prompt, so please be early.

We will hop onto our minibus and take a drive around Great Orme's one-way road with its spectacular mountain drop-off into the sea. Showcasing nature at its finest, limestone cliffs, caves, and mountain views.

We will then head to the old castle town of Conwy. Here we will do the ancient castle tour, visit the smallest house in Britain, walk the castle walls, stroll along the Conwy estuary, and pay the local marina a visit for refreshments and lunch (own expense for castle entry).

A wonderful gem set upon the bank of the estuary and part of the castle walls is Great Britain's smallest house. With arms outstretched, you can touch either side. Unbelievably, a 6'3 large local fisherman lived in this tiny house with his partner for many years!

Visit the Welsh dragon of Snowdonia hiding in the woodland ready to tear limb from limb any invaders to this area., guarding the entrance to the mountains.

Unrivalled awe-inspiring Snowdonia National Park and its spectacular rugged landscaped driving routes of the Ogwen Valley and Pen-y-Pass. Stop at viewpoints, witnessing great lakes, ice age carved valleys, rivers, and views, and more, as well as learn local history and heritage.

Get right into the heart and nitty-gritty of Snowdonia mountain living. We travel along the ancient Roman road passing the slate industry showcasing the spectacular mountain views, distant waterfalls, and valley views.

Spectacular scenery overlooked by Mount Trypan, we stop next to the historic lake of Ogwen to learn its history of a great find relating to King Arthur and the 5th century.

Stop at Snowdonia's famous viewpoint. This location with 360 panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and lakes is truly stunning.

Visit the National Slate Museum next. The slate industry was one of the main economic motors of Wales. Step back in time and immerse yourself in a variety of talks and demonstrations to give you real insight into the hardships of past quarry life.

Occupying a lofty, spectacular spot overlooking the waters of Llyn Padarn, native-built Dolbadarn Castle was once a vital link in the defenses of the ancient kingdom of Gwynedd. Constructed by Llywelyn the Great in the late 12th century.

Take a walk around this world heritage site. After all these years Caernarfon’s immense strength remains undimmed - a brute of a fortress. History comes alive at Caernarfon in so many ways – along the lofty wall walks, beneath the twin-towered gatehouse, the walk town’s narrow and colorful streets, and the stylishly redeveloped waterfront of the Menai. (admission is free unless you wish to enter the main castle grounds where is fee is required)
