See Wales Tours

A TOUR company operating out of Rhondda Cynon Taff is going from strength to strength by offering visitors the chance to see the very best of South Wales. See Wales provides minibus tours all year round, taking travellers off the busy roads and visiting all the 'must see' places in comfort.

Day tours around South Wales include the Heart of the Valleys; Romans, Rivers and Ruins; and the Golden Gower.

In the first trip the tour takes in the castles and coal mines of the South Wales Valleys, starting at Big Pit in Blaenavon and then venturing into the Brecon Beacons National Park with a lunch stop at its visitors' centre.

The Romans, Rivers and Ruins tour starts right on your doorstep here, with a visit to Caerleon and its amphitheatre. It then goes on to Tintern Abbey, then Raglan Castle and Trellech.

The Golden Gower tour begins at the Dylan Thomas Centre at Swansea, with an opportunity to get a glimpse at the life and work of Wales' most celebrated poet. Then you head onto The Gower, Britain's first designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. With its golden stretches of sandy beaches, spectacular cliff-top views and ancient monuments, a trip around this unique landscape is a must for all visitors.

The tour takes in Mumbles' Victorian Promenade; Langland Bay; a clifftop walk to Caswell Bay; Rhosilli for lunch and walks to Worms Head and Rhosilli Bay and one of the best views in Wales; 14th century Weobley Castle and the haunting Parc le Breos burial chamber. l Visit www.seewales.com for more information.
