Wonderful tour and great value!! - This was a great tour! Our guide, Trevor, was extremely gracious and knowledgeable. We went places a big bus tour couldn't go and Trevor was very accommodating; tailoring the trip by providing various options to the small group (8) on the tour from which to choose. Amazingly beautiful countryside and quaint villages. Trevor also provided hot tea, coffee, and lunch (sandwiches, crisps, etc.); a nice convenience.

Outstanding tour of the ❤️ of Snowdonia - The communications from this company were top level. After booking, you receive direct communication, checking your location for staying and the daytime before confirmation of pick up location and time. Trevor arrived with an upbeat welcome and a very comfortable & immaculately clean minibus. The tour was memorable, and overall, the experience I 💯 recommend you book this tour. Trevor was very knowledgeable about the area, legendary tales that were informative, and also adaptable to change if there should be a road closure. It was a great day. I didn't feel like he was clock watching, but everything the tour promised, we got. Lunch & refreshment stops were scheduled into the day, and you were informed of all toilet facilities at each stop. Attention to detail is their above and beyond. Trevor it was a truly wonderful day and I wish you every success for the future. Many thanks, Tara

Thanks for a great full-day tour to Snowdonia, we will think of in years! - Trevor is a well informed, friendly and attentive guide who made his best efforts to meet his guests needs. Our expectations were exceeded both in terms of the guide as well as the tour program. It's difficult to decide which site was the most beautiful given that all were impressive. Though, when being "forced" to name a favourite for each of us, we would name the Llechwedd Slate Mines and the Pen-Y-Pass.

Lovely locations - Great tour guide. Took us to loads of picturesque places. One of the highlights for me was being able to visit a Doctor Who filming location, Nant Ffrancon Pas, which has amazing views and is easily accessible from the road.

Brilliant Snowdonia Experience - A little cloudy on the tops but that didn't spoil the experience. Trevor gave our mini-bus group a great tour, lots of anecdotes, history and the benefit of his past accumulated local knowledge and experience, particularly geology.

My trip are cancelled after confirmation - I am very upset after I booked for three people and made all the train and hotel reservations for this trip. They told me that there were only two seats left and my reservation was cancelled, and the amount will be refunded after 5-7 working days. I am coming from south England to Llandudno just to make this trip and now the train tickets and the hotel are non-refundable. This is really bad.
