Wales adventure tour
Wales is off-grid in many ways, much lesser known as a destination. We adore introducing Wales to people, the landscapes are emerald mountains and deep valleys, vast numbers of ancient castles perch on hilltops, like dramatic film sets.
The terrain of Wales makes outdoor activities ideal, we have made suggestions of what you can do, but we can customise your tour for you. Activities include; Coasteering, rafting, canoeing, climbing, zip wires, hiking Snowdonia, survival training, wild swimming and much more.
This seven-night suggested tour can be customised to match your interests, pace of travel, and preferred hotel style. See the full itinerary below and download the Wales adventure tour PDF brochure. Share with family and friends.
Head straight from Heathrow into the west - Tour the borders of England and Wales and discover an impressive fortress and romantic ruin. Chepstow Castle is a wonder to explore, discover and dream of the Medieval world. Erupting out of the jagged limestone cliff, it towers over the river wye, the guardian of the main river crossing from England to Southern Wales. Wales is the land of dragons and castles. The principality has a turbulent past; raids have come from both sides of the border, invasion by the Anglo-Normans and English Kingdoms eventually made Wales part of an Anglo-Welsh dominion; This is a story of rebellion, power, and Royal politics, enjoy the tales.
Cistercian monks founded Tintern Abbey in 1131. Now all that remains of this once-thriving monastery is a romantic ruin, lost in time. The ecclesiastical architecture is a skeleton of the Abbey, intricate and fragile. Its ethereal elegance is perhaps, more beautiful ruined than whole, and indeed more poignant.
End your day with views from the famous beauty spot of Symonds Yat Rock. Far below see the River Wye in a beautiful looping shape and above, with luck, see Peregrin Falcons hurtle towards their prey.
Overnight: South Wales - Recommended Hotel: Llangoed Hall Hotel.

The beautiful Brecon Beacons National Park covers 520 square miles from the Wales-England border. It feels like you’ve stepped into Tolkein’s middle earth. The folds of giant mountains frame emerald green vistas. This place is every outdoor lover's paradise! Where you can experience epic mountain bike adventures, hiking in an environment where you will meet more sheep than people. It’s glorious isolation with breath-taking scenery.
Discover a hidden Castle with a secret, a fortification with Iron age origins. The earliest structure was probably the work of a Welsh prince - Lord Rhys, ruler of South Wales. The isolated imposing ruins we see today bear all the hallmarks of a border Lord demonstrating his power, wealth and influence. This spectacularly located Castle built as a symbol of control. Carreg Cennen was part of a series of such fortresses built by Marcher lords throughout Wales after the Edwardian conquest. There is a dark secret to discover deep below its ramparts, be brave and explore the dungeon and cave with your guide.
Option; To hike waterfall country and the most beautiful cascades of water in cool emerald valleys of the Four Falls Trail.
Stop for lunch and sample local cheese before heading back into the Brecon Beacons. Stop at the Red Kite feeding station. This successfully re-introduced raptor will be seen in high numbers when feeding begins. We watch quietly from a bird hide as they circle above, they then dive and battle in mid-air for flesh. It is an impressive sight to see.

Covering over 800 square miles, Snowdonia National Park breaks the horizon and clutches the skyline with the Snowdon Massif dominating the view. The most famous mountain and the highest peak is Snowdon, followed closely by Garnedd Ugain.
Many hikers train on Snowdon in preparation for climbing Mount Kilimanjaro and Everest. For those not in training, we suggest you opt to travel up the mountain by steam locomotive, operated by the Snowdon Mountain Railway.
Conwy town and Castle surrounded by the protective outer walls of the Castle, Conwy is a market town dating from the 13th Century. Ancient houses still exist along with the well-preserved Castle, imposing and magnificent. Built by King Edward I in the 13th Century, the primary purpose was protecting the town while managing and governing the local area. The details add to the medieval charm of the Castle's decoration, whereas the arrow-slits on the towers add to the structure's serious roll. Climb the turrets and town walls for the panoramic view of the town and Snowdonia. The chapel, kitchens, and chambers are intact and demonstrate life within the Castle.
