There’s an old Welsh saying; “the best shortage is a shortage of words”. And we can understand why. Because when you travel through Snowdonia, the beautiful mountains leave you speechless. The Welsh castles’ battle-torn passageways are simply indescribable. And a lot of the destinations are as unpronounceable as they’re unbelievable. So, on this trip, we let you discover the elusive beauty of Wales. You enjoy the poetic landscapes and harbour towns that inspired Dylan Thomas, you venture through the inexpressibly beautiful valleys of two of Wales’ famous national parks, and you take in the history of Chester, an English town that sits by the border. Let the sights speak for themselves and join our tour of North Wales and Chester.

Inclusions: Professional guide/driver, Small-group tour (maximum 16 people), 2 nights en-suite accommodation with breakfast, Transportation in top of the range 16-seat Mercedes mini coach

Exclusions: Gratuities, Food and drinks, unless specified, Hotel pickup and drop-off, Admission fees

What a great day out. Travelled with a friend on the North Wales/Chester trip in September. From boarding the coach in Manchester to arriving back, we were fed history, myths, legends, jokes and music from our excellent guide Darren. He was so informative, even including history of Manchester and it’s music.The coach was clean and comfortable, the places we visited were stunning. We will definitely use Rabbies again, small group tours an added bonus.

My husband and I had a fantastic day with John through Snowdonia and Conwy Valley. We saw and learnt more in one day than we did in 2 weeks driving ourselves - and without the stress! John was quick to adapt the tour to our interests and was interesting with a good sense of humour. He showed us some special locations that you miss on your own without immense research and time and we got our best photos in one day. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend John, and in particular the value of a private tour.

The guide was very good, was on time, had abundance of information, amazing narration style combined with sound effects too. However, the trip was all transportation there wasnt enough time to appreciate anything, Hawkhead village was not necessary, also we signed up for something we didnt get which is Lancaster which kind of put me off.
