Itinerary
1. We meet at Llandudno Railway Station directly outside at (bus stop H) on Augusta Street. We leave prompt at 8.30, so please be early.
2. After our introduction and safety brief, 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 the limestone cliffs, caves, wildlife of birds, wild goats, and often dolphins and seals, as well as views towards the Snowdonia mountains.
3. We will then head to the old castle town of Conwy. Here you can do the ancient castle tour or simply walk the castle walls of the ancient village, stroll along the Conwy estuary and paying the local marina a visit for refreshments and lunch, and visit the worlds first syspension bridge built in 1819. (additional fee for main castle entry)
4. 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! Always a great photo opportunity. (additional fee to enter inside)
5. View the guarding Welsh Dragon of Snowdonia, hidden in woodland overwatching for invaders to our lands. (limited parking - if parking space unavailable we have to bypass this stop)
6. Here you will step into the past and discover an industry and way of life that has chiseled itself into the very being of this country. Imagine the quarrymen and engineers have just put down their tools and left the courtyard for home and that's what you will witness here. Here the past meets modern, as integrated adrenaline adventures are using old closed quarries in spectacular locations.
7. Visit the spectacular route of Nant Ffrancon pass (the old roman road) which was carved out during the last ice age. Lake Ogwain and its dramatic setting next to Tryfan mountain. On our route including Pen-y-pass we see many great lakes, stunning scenery and mountain views deep in the heart of some of Snowdonia's finest locations
8. A spectacular 360 valley setting next to the lake. Whilst you stand in awe, we will tell stories of a historic find relating to king Arthur and his sword Excalibur at this very lake
9. Stop at Snowdonia viewpoint. Know as one of the UK's most spectacular views, this 360 panoramic view of snowdonia's horseshoe, gwynant valley and lakes, and the glyder's make it a photographers dream.
10. The pass at its highest point is the location of towering hills and foothills of Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) Dramatically falling into the valley below, and winding roads meander and skirt their way through the craggy cliffs.
11. Occupying a lofty, spectacular spot overlooking the waters of Llyn Padarn, native-built Dolbadarn Castle was once a vital link in the defences of the ancient kingdom of Gwynedd. Constructed by Llywelyn the Great in the late 12th century
12. Take a walk round 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 stylishly redeveloped waterfront of the Menai. (additional fee to enter main castle)
13. Enjoy the return scenic drive along the Menai coast hugging the coastline and seeing the greenery of the Isle of Anglesey
