This mostly panoramic tour gives you a nice overview of the Welsh countryside and Snowdonia, while stopping for photos at some points of interest along the way. This incredible park boasts some of the most amazing scenery to be found anywhere in Wales and is a visual delight.


Travel through Anglesey to cross the Menai Strait and then on to Caernarfon with its famous castle that dates back to 1283. It was here that the heir to the British Throne, Prince Charles, was crowned Prince of Wales in 1969. Stop for photos of this once impregnable castle before continuing inland towards the magnificent landscapes of the Snowdonia National Park.


Travel deep into the park, and make a short stop for photos at Llanberis, which rests beside the Llyn Padarn Lake. From here, you will next take the incredible Llanberis pass that skirts the base of Snowdon, the highest peak in Britain south of the Scottish highlands at 3,560 feet high. Weather permitting; there will be opportunities to photograph the fabulous scenery. Arriving at lovely Betws y Coed; a spot renowned for its popularity with hikers and adventure seekers, you will have some free time to stretch your legs, do a bit of shopping, or enjoy a cup of tea before it's time to head back to Holyhead.
