The trip was a wonderful experience. Guide was kind and knowledgeable, he shared about the cultural and historical importance of the places that we visited. And he also tried to teach us few Welsh words. We had enough time to explore the places as planned, and had breaks for lunch/snacks too. We enjoyed the guided tour, will definitely recommend to friends.
