DAY 5: Today our excursion takes us to St. Bride’s Bay and Newgale Sands to the magical place of St. Davids – the birthplace of the patron saint of Wales. St. Davids has a beautiful cathedral, the smallest in Great Britain which is well worth a visit. From St. Davids, we head around the Preseli Mountains back to the hotel.

After our visit, we will make the short journey north to the seaside resort of Llandudno. The rest of the day is free for you to explore at leisure. Take a stroll along the wide promenade and enjoy the sea air or enjoy some retail therapy in the main shopping street which runs parallel with the sea front.
DAY 8: Today’s excursion takes us through some lovely Welsh scenery, including the spectacular Horseshoe Pass, to the Dee Valley. Here we join the Rheilfford Llangollen Railway for a
journey on a nostalgic train from Carrogg to Llangollen. We also take a ride on the ‘Stream in the Sky’ – the Llangollen Canal – gliding gently along over the country’s biggest navigable viaduct.
