Delighted to hear you had a great day with us. So glad you could join us.
We had such a good time! The driver and guide were spot on. We were impressed with the value for money especially as the tour felt really unique. The highlight was St Fagans - would highly recommend.
We totally agree - St Fagans is a real highlight. So glad that you enjoyed the day with us and thanks again for joining the tour.
I went on the half day tour of Cardiff Bay, St Fagans and Llandaff, which was a really well out together tour. It enabled me to make the most of the limited time I had in Cardiff. The guide was great, very knowledgeable and made everything come to life. I’d highly recommend this tour and plan to take another when I’m next in Wales!
Great to hear, and thanks for the review.
