Flavours of Wales
5 Day Coach Holidays - 7% Discount

Tour Highlights
Welsh food and entertainment, Welsh Whisky Company, Big Pit National Coal Museum, Cambrian Coastal Railway, Barmouth, Elan Valley
Barmouth

Savour the flavours of Wales on this brand new tour - a tantalising showcase of all that's great about this wonderful country. Enjoy unspoilt coastlines and beautiful countryside, take a fascinating journey underground, ride on a spectacular coastal train, and take a tot at Wales' very own (and only!) distillery. You'll also be treated to some wonderful Welsh food - local and fresh is always best - and some local entertainment too - including a rousing recital by our local male voice choir.

Your Excursions

FULL DAY

This morning we ascend into the Brecon Beacons National Park to reach Penderyn where we visit the Welsh Whisky Company (admission included) with a chance to taste a drop of their fine malt. We continue past Merthyr Tydfil to reach the Big Pit National Coal Museum, where we travel 300 feet underground to discover what life was like at a Welsh coal face.

FULL DAY
Today we tour through the Cambrian Mountains to Machynlleth, site of the first Welsh Parliament, and board the Cambrian Coastal Railway (ticket included). It's a truly memorable journey hugging the Welsh coastline as it skirts the mountain ranges of Cader Idris before crossing the spectacular Barmouth Bridge, to disembark in this popular seaside resort.

HALF DAY
A morning excursion into the Elan Valley with its series of reservoirs in a spectacular scenic setting. The visitor centre has an exhibit of the water scheme, showing photographs of houses drowned when the reservoirs were built.
