I came on the Castles, Mountains & More tour with my family and we all had a fantastic day. Our guide really knew his stuff and gave us lots of interesting information about all the places we visited. The tour was well planned and we got to see a lot in one day, including castles, the Brecon Beacons and the town of Brecon itself. Thanks to Roam Wales for giving us a day to remember!

We will pick you up from your accommodation and take you on a walk to the highest and most iconic location in Southern Britain, Pen-y-fan. This mountain lies in the heart of the Brecon Beacons National Park, an area of immense beauty, rich in wildlife and history. Once arriving at the National Park you will proceed on your walk, all the time receiving interesting information about the wildlife and history of the area, whilst marvelling at the unfolding scenery around you. There will be plenty of stops for photos. When you arrive at the top the views will take your breath away as you look for miles in every direction. We will then head back down the mountain via a different route, passing scenic valleys, glacial lakes and historical monuments. I will then take you back to your accommodation where you can rest and gaze at your amazing pictures from the day.

Andy's Amazing Waterfalls Walk is a 15km day with 400m of ascent and is over often rough, muddy and broken ground but doable by most although some feel pretty tired at the end of the day. We visit eight waterfalls of note and several smaller falls too. One of the waterfalls is available to walk behind as that is where the footpath takes us! Andy has been delivering walks at this location for over thirty years and his knowledge of the area, it's industrial heritage and it's natural environments, will be his to share with you as you take in the best valley walks in Brecon Beacons National Park!

Inclusions: Guiding

Exclusions: Lunch, Boots, Transport to start point

As always a great trip. Despite the unexpected weather conditions Andy adapted the route to ensure a safe ascent and we were treated to magnificent views and clean crisp white snow. Andy as usual kept the conversation and banter going the whole time, and is a mine of knowledge about the area. An enjoyable and memorable first time up Snowdon and I am already planning my next trip

The woodland is naturally regenerating and it it 'always' has been, the rivers haven't changed the landscape for 10,000 years... Step back in time with us on a geological journey that just happens to take in four rather spectacular waterfalls in some stunning surroundings. Andy has been delivering walks at this location for over thirty years and his knowledge of the area, it's industrial heritage and it's natural environments, will be his to share with you as you take in the best valley walks in Brecon Beacons National Park! Lilly said 'Andy is simply an amazing person! He’s an excellent guide, delivering amazing outdoor activities in Wales. Being new to Wales, joining Andy’s tours has been for me a great opportunity to get to know Wales. The waterfalls walk is wonderfully led by Andy whose expertise perfectly matches with the beauty of the place.'

Let us pick you up and take you to this place of immense beauty. This 5.5 mile walk along uneven paths takes you along riverside scenery, with steep sided wooded valleys and four breath-taking waterfalls. In a National Park renowned for its sweeping, barren, mountain scenery, high peak lovers are in danger of missing out on this hidden gem. This pocket of dramatic limestone scenery where 4 stunning waterfalls are within a relatively short walk of each other is a truly unique location like no other in the UK. The highlight of the area is Sgwd yr Eira, where you'll venture right behind the gushing torrent of water, a truly unique and memorable experience that you won't forget. **Some nationalities may refer to this activity as a hike rather than walk**.

Inclusions: Air-conditioned vehicle

Because of terrible weather and the recent Coronavirus outbreak I couldn’t go on my South Wales Coast Walk after doing the Pen-y-Fan walk the day before. Even though I was disappointed I wouldn’t be able to explore the beautiful coast, my Guide was very negotiable and gave me a full refund. He was a very nice guy and I highly recommend Walk South Wale tours!
