El castillo de Conwy es una fortaleza histórica ubicada en la ciudad de Conwy, en Gales del Norte, Reino Unido. Construido entre 1283 y 1289 por Eduardo I durante su conquista de Gales, es considerado uno de los castillos medievales más impresionantes y mejor conservados del Reino Unido. El castillo forma parte del Patrimonio de la Humanidad de la UNESCO que incluye varios otros castillos construidos por Eduardo I en Gales del Norte. Características principales: 1. Diseño defensivo: El castillo tiene un muro cortina masivo con ocho torres y está diseñado para resistir tanto asedios como ataques. Su posición, con vistas al río Conwy, lo hizo estratégicamente importante para controlar el área. 2. Murallas y puertas: Las paredes están notablemente intactas, y los visitantes pueden caminar por ellas para disfrutar de fantásticas vistas de los alrededores. El castillo cuenta con una serie de puertas, incluyendo la Puerta Este, la Puerta Oeste y la Puerta del Agua.
Snowdonia National Park es un impresionante paisaje natural en Gales del Norte, conocido por sus dramáticas montañas, incluyendo Snowdon, el pico más alto de Gales.

Betws-y-Coed es un pintoresco pueblo situado en el corazón del Parque Nacional Snowdonia en Gales del Norte. A menudo se le conoce como la "Puerta de entrada a Snowdonia" debido a su ubicación central y su papel como punto de partida para explorar el parque.

Belleza natural: Betws-y-Coed está rodeado de densos bosques, ríos y colinas, por lo que es una base ideal para actividades al aire libre como senderismo, ciclismo y pesca. El pueblo se encuentra en la confluencia de tres ríos: el Conwy, el Llugwy y el Lledr, que se suman al encanto paisajístico de la zona. 2.

Absolutely fabulous day trip! We were so thrilled to have found this tour. Vincent was a fabulous tour guide and our bus driver Chris was top notch as well. We learned so much about the region and marveled at the natural beauty of Northern Wales. I wish the tour had been longer. I would definitely recommend to anyone visiting the Liverpool area. 10/10.
Enjoyed the scenery of N. Wales. Hayfields, corn, wheat, sheep. Where were the border collies? Limestone outcroppings the rolling hills were very pleasant. Tour guide had a great knowledge of the history past and present. Answered numerous questions on subjects past and present. The coach was very clean and comfortable. Driver did an excellent job as was expected.
David, the tour guide was very friendly, the motor coach was very comfortable and the drive and itinerary were nice. The only disappointing fact is that the listing states it includes a visit to Conway Castle but all they do is drop you outside. If you want to actually visit the castle, you have to pay a separate admission fee, I wish that had been communicated more clearly. However, the tour is still a great value.
Honestly, skip this tour unless you like long, boring bus rides where the guide drones on and on. He did not have an engaging or charismatic voice or way of story telling so all it did was put our group to sleep. We had a stop in a little touristy stop in snowdonia and then a stop in Conwy. This tour does not include tickets to the Conwy castle which was disappointing so again, we were in a touristy town. That was it. Then we got back on the bus and headed back to Liverpool. There's probably better tours out there so I'd definitely skip this one. It was not worth the time or money spent.
Poor communication. The provider had confirmed the booking through Viator, then No Showed. After frantically messaging them through Viator while spending 50 minutes looking for their driver or bus, we inally had to go through Viator to get a response and a refund. Lost the opportunity to visit Wales, as we were in port one day.
Good Morning Tyson We emailed to advise that the tour was not operating, and unfortunately you were unable to access your mail. As soon as you made contact with us on the day, I believe we suggested alternatives, and the process to obtain a 100% refund. Very rarely, due to operational reasons a tour is cancelled but we do advise gusts prior to travel
Overall, this was a great day trip. The bus was comfortable, and both the tour guide and driver were excellent. My only disappointment was the stop in Conwy. The itinerary showed a 2-hour stop, but we only had about 45 minutes, which felt far too short. I would have loved more time to explore Conwy Castle and the nearby shops instead of rushing through everything.
Hi , Many thanks for your comments. with a shared group tour we always try to find a balance of time and locations to visit.
Driver did not show up. We were on a cruise ship and when we went to the meeting site the driver was not there. We called and found out the tour was canceled. This last minute cancellation prevented us from booking another tour.
The guide seemed to be losing abilities. He insisted too much on making us listen to the Beatles' music too loudly.
Tour guide was Rob with Your Shore Time. Locating the meeting point was easy, short walk from Liverpool cruise terminal. Scenery is spectacular driving past the coast and through the countryside. Unfortunately, Conwy Castle was only accessible with paid tickets and partially closed due to construction and filming. Parts of the walls were shut and by the time we found the main entrance we were out of time at the stop. Proper planning would have the bus drop us closer to the castle’s main entrance rather than in town to navigate in the heat. The stop in Betws-Y-Coed could have been longer and the last stop at St. Asaph shorter. This would be a 5-star review if not for the frustration at Conwy Castle. Rob played some nice Beatles music along with some great points about the history.
We originally had a tour planned from Liverpool to Wales. A few days before getting on our ship it got cancelled. There was an alternative trip we found going to Wales and booked it. Stood at meeting point for a while only to find out that was also cancelled. They sent a message cancelling but, didn’t get it cause we didn’t have WiFi on the ship. There should have been an alternative arrangement. We wound up going on hop on hop off bus and road around city.
