Fun way to spend 90 minutes. Amongst the humour and tom-foolery were some interesting facts about St David but this tour definitely prioritises entertainment over education. A good addition to what the city offers visitors.

Dai and Rug have brilliant banter and expertly weave bits of history and folklore in with some hilarious nonsense. A great way to explore St David's! A massive thank you to Dai and Rug  from me, my Mum and our dog Coco.

It was fun, but it felt like a lot of ot was 'in jokes' or references that none of us 'got'. Either that or we were missing something. Nice walk around though and loved the leek!

Miraculously stumbled into these strange costumes on an evening walk. We soon realised we'd booked this tour for the week before in error! Dai and Rag very kindly offered to repeat the session especially for us, as we'd travelled 4 hours to be there. Unfortunately, we didn't get to experience this in a group; however, they kept up the energy and maintained character throughout this enjoyable guide through the city at the drop of a hat! Enormous gratitude for your kindness :)

Pop your tongue in your cheek, tune in to a mix of absurdist (think python) humour and historical facts from the smallest city. A fun way to spend 90 minutes. Recommended.

NorthStarRising

Great fun! Learn more about the city and the mysterious - yet humble - eponymous saint. Lots of fun and laughs as you tour the streets in the safe hands of St David. Gentle humour that’s safe for all ages - a lovely way to spend an hour or so. Especially if you love a leek.

I knew this was a comedy tour but oh dear in my opinion it was totally stupid. No real facts at all The costumes the two people had on were very poor

anwene2019

Brilliant 🤩 original, ridiculous and so very funny. Wonderful vibe created. Rug’s aura of smiling calm throughout still makes me laugh. Fabulous experience
