DAY ONE – Arrival

We depart from your home and travel to Llandudno, time to relax and enjoy the town before dinner this evening.

 

DAY TWO – Conwy and Conwy Castle

Today our guide will take us around Conwy as we explore the walled town on foot before heading into the Castle. Thanks to the restored spiral staircases in its great towers, you can walk a complete circuit around the battlements of Conwy Castle. We highly recommend it. This is one of the most magnificent medieval fortresses in Europe.

Returning to Llandudno this afternoon there’s time to relax before dinner this evening.

 

DAY THREE – Anglesey and Puffin Island

Today we travel first to Caernarfon, dominated by one of the most impressive castles in Wales. The huge castle, with its unusual octagon towers, was the largest of many built by Edward I at the end of the 13th century.

We then head over the Menai Straits and on to the Isle of Anglesey, where we have a little time in picturesque Beaumaris. The castle is an unfinished masterpiece, built in 1295.

This afternoon we board the all-weather cruiser to Puffin Island – home to many species of birds and wildlife. The 1½ hour cruise, with live commentary, takes you right round the island with regular sightings of puffins, grey seals, and dolphins.

 

DAY FOUR & DAY FIVE - Llandudno

You enjoy some time at leisure in Llandudno, and we have included tickets for the City Sightseeing Hop on Hop off buses, for Llandudno & Conwy, Rhos Rover, and the Great Orme Explorer.

 

DAY SIX – Bodnant Gardens

Today we visit Bodnant Gardens, where you have time to explore this stunning Grade I historic garden, formal garden, meadows, arboretum, and garden architecture, as well as enjoying the tea rooms, and craft/gift shops.  A lovely way to spend the day before returning to our hotel later this afternoon.
