Cardiff Tours and Trips

We visited an historic Coalmine, (Pit) which I did not really want to descend into. I was glad to get our of the mine, however it was the relization that life was extremely hard and Human Beings, had very little value, back in that pre 20th Century period. So I did appreciate, that experience. We also stayed in 2 Country Estates, dating back to the 17th Century, which are now Hotels. Overall the bus trip was very informative. I do recommend this tour.

There was so many different experiences and a great, knowledgeable tour leader. Wales has so much to offer and such a rich history. We certainly saw much of this part of Britain - mountains, coastal towns, castles and moors. The hotels were excellent and chosen for their character and service. Travelling along the back roads , through green forest and valleys was so much better than motorways. I enjoyed the company of my fellow travellers in this small group tour.

Wonders of Wales was totally wonderful adventure. A major plus was beginning and ending in Cardiff and not London which is a pain to get into and a waste of time to get out of. Our guide, John and our driver Ashley were a terrific team and helped make the trip so memorable. They are both down-to-earth, easy going and unpretentious.

An informative and in depth insight into Wales both past and present. Made extra special by Anthony Wade our guide and Steve our driver. Both men experts in their respective fields.

My husband & I were very satisfied with our Wales tour. Our tour guide was excellent & also the driver. They both went beyond their duties to accommodate our wants & needs. Yes. We would definitely recommend Back Toad Tours We look forward to our next tour which is The Highlights of Britain. We are following that tour to Scotland & then to Ireland. We will always use Back Roads Tours fior their excellent service…the Holels have all been very good as well.

We enjoyed this tour very much. Wonders of Wales is truly just that! Wales is a beautiful country and there was much to see. But what we enjoyed most was the small group of 8 Canadians, 3 Australians, our wonderful tour guide, John, and awesome bus driver, Ryan. This made a travelling family full of fun, teasing and much laughter. We enjoyed meals together and tours together. John and Ryan were never excluded from what we did, which I really liked. We stayed in some very beautiful and charming hotels. Some in quaint countryside manors. Stunning at times. Evening meal times were not more than 90 minutes which was great and we had some fabulous meals there too. I liked that our guide, John, had created a WhatsApp group so that we could communicate with each other and share photos and videos. John was very accommodating and very knowledgeable about the history of the places were visited. He actually cleared up a mistake in my family history books. We thought an ancestor was from Herefordshire in Wales, where in actuality, this county is in England! Thanks for clearing that up, John!!! All of our tour tickets were included in the cost of the tour, so there were no additional payments, as there are with other tour companies. My favourite part of this tour was the drive around Snowdonia. This was very picturesque. All in all this tour was fabulous and I would definitely recommend it. Wales is truly stunning.
