Today, you will explore the area surrounding Llandudno. One of the many great places to visit is Conwy which is a World Heritage town. Conwy is one of Britain’s best-preserved medieval towns. The well-preserved ancient walls enclose the town full of cobbled streets and historic buildings. Conwy Castle is a World Heritage Site that was a key part of the “iron ring” of fortresses build around Snowdonia. The views from the battlements with the mountains of Snowdonia one way and Conwy Estuary on the other are simply stunning. Other great places to check out include Aberconwy House, Plas Mawr and the Smallest House. A must do while in Conwy is to walk along the walls before venturing into the streets below. You can complete a history lesson of the area by visiting Conwy’s Tourist Information center to see flagship exhibitions.

We are more than happy to include a flight quote separately to your package so that you can decide if you would like to book with us or on your own. While booking flights can seem straight-forward, there are often hidden fees or classes of service that do not include seat assignments, meals or checked bags. We have been booking flights since 1985 and know the best routings and have great contracts that mean we often have better prices than what you will see online.
In Wales, we generally try to book hotels that are at a 4 star level or higher. In some situations, we will book some 3 star or B&B properties but we do require them to be at a certain standard. We try to ensure a member of the team have stayed at each property in recent years or that we have done a site inspection.
Your first vacation quote, and up to two revisions, for trips of 9 or fewer days, and 45 days in advance of travel, are complimentary. If an itinerary requires further revisions subsequent to this, we will require a non-refundable deposit of $75 per person in order to continue.
If you are requesting a quote for a vacation that is 10 days in length, or with travel dates within 45 days, or to a non-core destination, a deposit of $75 per person will be required in order for us to begin working on your proposal.
Planning deposits can then be put towards the cost of the trip should you decide to proceed with the booking.
