Pleasant ride and guided tour with Jeanne. Beautiful conwy castle, mountain goat sighting, train ride at Llanberis. Great weather, rainy morning turned out to be sunny afternoon.

Very nice trip! We booked six months in advance and the tour program was changed afterwards (steam railway trip included and visit of Conwy instead of Llandudno). We weren't informed about these substantial changes. However our tour guide was flexible and included the visit of Llandudno. This was really great!

Jean our tour guide for the day went out of her way to make the day a memorable experience. She clearly loves the area and her enthusiasm and warm personality made this a truly enjoyable experience. Well done!
