We had the 4 hour tour which gave us plenty of time to explore Cardiff. Eugene was a great guide and had incredible knowledge of the history of Cardiff and introduced us to the amazing Cardiff biscuits. If you are in need of a great guide that is fun and full of knowledge you need to ask for Euguene.

Eugene was a fantastic guide. The tour was very informative and diversified. We both saw the city center including the castle and the bay area. Eugene also showed us the witnesses of Wales' industrial and mining past, so to speak the old and the new Cardiff. We can absolutely recommand a private guided tour with Eugene in Cardiff. Even for non-native speakers he was easy to understand.
