5.00Amazing experience! The Gower peninsula and especially Rhossili bay is just mesmerising. Special shout out to Max, our tour guide for constant information and also guidance on various options to try in the different stops. Each stop there was option to walk for more active people or sit back and relax in the bay...And great photos and experience for life!

5.00The day was great. Max gave us great information and clear instructions for meeting times so we could relax and enjoy ourselves. He was also very considerate, making sure we could all navigate the trails and lookout points safely. It made all the difference. We were lucky to have excellent albeit windy weather and the sights delivered. A gorgeous cliff hike, lovely small peninsula towns, and beautiful bays. My husband and I heartily recommend this tour and Max as your guide. We were delighted.

4.00There are some walks but not too strenuous. Views are very nice. The tour guide was very considerate and very knowledgeable. Only problem was is the pick up point which is very obscure.
Great trip to the Gower

Unforgettable Wales

5.00From an easy-to-find location in Cardiff, even if you just arrived yesterday, Max drove us out through beautiful scenery to Swansea and the rural Gower peninsula. We saw castles and sheep and towns--everywhere you look is breathtakingly beautiful. I ate a superb cheese and leek pasty from a bakery Max recommended. We walked in pastures with sheep and horses. We hiked a short bit of the Wales Coast Path. We had time to talk to people and dogs. During the day, there is enough unstructured time for toilets, shopping, and exploring. This is a terrific tour of a wonderful area. Max is a great guide, and I highly recommend it.
Natural beauty Winner!!
