A Brief Taste of North Wales -
|
| There's
so much to see and do in North Wales that
we couldn't cram it all on one page... This
is just a sample of what your guide can open
up for you. |
 |
Some
of the most spectacular scenery in the UK |
| |
From
the rolling Clwydian hills to the peace of
the Lleyn peninsular, from the mountains of
Snowdonia to the Isle of Anglesey, there's
so much to see! |
 |
Magnificent
mountains and lakes |
| |
Rightly
famous, Snowdonia is a mecca for climbers
and walkers. Aside from the majestic Snowdon
itself, your guide can take you to the other
Snowdonia, the hidden valleys, the ancient
trackways and the extraordinary industrial
archaeology. |
 |
 |
Choice
of Seaside Resorts |
| |
Whether
you want a family day out with bucket and
spade or a bracing walk along a hidden beach
we can help you find it! Discover mile after
mile of unspoilt golden sand, or the lights
and action of the family resorts. |
 |
Miles
of Coastline |
| |
From
rugged walks along soaring cliff-top paths,
to vast expanses of golden beaches, get the
best from the coast with our guides. We can
show you rocky coves, rare plantlife and the
hidden places where ravens and falcons soar. |
 |
 |
A
wide variety of sports and entertainments
|
| |
North
Wales' theatres frequently play host to all
of the top touring companies - your guide
can arrange bookings for theatres and concerts.
If you prefer something a little more energetic
we can arrange anything from paintball to
golfing days. |
 |
Heritage
and History at every Turn |
| |
Everywhere
you look in North Wales there is history.
From the industrial age to the forbidding
magnificence of its castles, such as Conwy
(right), to older Wales - the early inhabitants
worked both land and bronze. Join us for a
journey through time. |
 |
 |

culture. The Welsh language is everywhere,
on signs and in the authentic daily language.
