Overview

Discover Welsh history and landscapes on our Three Castles and Welsh Mountains tour.

Starting with a drive-by of Cardiff Castle, we visit the ‘fairy-tale’ Castell Coch, a 19th-century Gothic gem nestled in ancient woodland.

Explore Wales’ largest fortress, Caerphilly Castle, with its vast moats, battlements, and famously leaning tower, and enjoy a lunch stop with views of this mighty medieval stronghold.

We then head to Cyfarthfa Castle in Merthyr Tydfil, a grand mansion once home to wealthy ironmasters, now housing a fascinating museum and art gallery set in landscaped parkland.

Enjoy a scenic drive through the dramatic Brecon Beacons National Park, known for its wild beauty, rolling hills, and deep-rooted legends.

Our final stop is Brecon, a charming market town where you can stroll the peaceful canalside or visit the historic Brecon Cathedral, a tranquil 12th-century gem.

A perfect day of castles, countryside, and culture in South Wales.
