Tour Adventure North Wales | Visit United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland

Guide

You’ll only ever have a local guide when you adventure with us. Someone who knows the area like the back of their hand and can show you the hidden gems you’re unlikely to find alone. Each activity will also be led by a specialist guide, so you’re free to lose yourself in moments of exhilaration knowing you’re in expert hands.

Accommodation

You’ll spend 3 nights in a comfortable, boutique hotel in Llangollen. Rooms are typically on a shared basis, either in a multi-bed bunk room or a shared twin room, so solo travellers don’t need to worry about unnecessary single supplement charges. On the 2-day packrafting adventure, you will spend the night wild camping. Facilities will naturally be very limited as this is wild camping! However bell tents are provided on a shared basis and sleeping mats are included. You must bring your own sleeping bag and travel towel. The final 3 nights of your adventure will be in a stylish hotel in Beaumaris, with rooms provided on a twin shared basis. If you prefer to have a private room this can usually be accommodated in both hotels, and private camping may be possible, but please enquire before booking to check availability if this is particularly important to you.

It’s a full day out with your travel group in a stunning part of North Wales – enjoy the views as together you abseil down waterfalls and leap from rocks into the river below!

Day 3 Day 3: Llangollen
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 3: Llangollen

After the physical activity of canyoning and the fun of last night you can enjoy a more relaxed start to your day. Use your free morning to explore more of Llangollen and the surrounding area. If you’re feeling energetic, we highly recommend the hike up to Dinas Bran, a 13th Century castle perched high above the town on the site of an Iron Age hill fort.

Be back in town for 12.30pm for the crazy sport of river bugging! Pull on your wetsuit, jump on your bug and paddle off down the beautiful River Dee. Charging headfirst through rapids will really get your adrenaline pumping.

Day 4 Day 4: Betws-Y-Coed
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 4: Betws-Y-Coed

Pack your bags, you’re going packrafting! You’ll spend the next two days hiking and paddling your way from the Welsh hills to the coastal town of Beaumaris on the island of Anglesey. With a pack-away raft on your back, along with snacks and other essentials, your guide will take you down less-trodden routes through the beautiful Snowdonia National Park. In the evening you’ll cook together around an open campfire. Our local guide showing you how to prepare your meal so you can really get stuck in to cooking in the great outdoors. Chat the night away, sharing stories around the fire before retiring for a night under canvas. We provide large bell tents on a shared basis (up to 6 per tent), so you don’t have the hassle of bringing a tent with you. We’ll even take your overnight bag to the camp for you, so you don’t have to carry it on your hike / packraft. What better way to truly experience the great outdoors than relaxing under the stars, enjoying a hot chocolate with new friends.

12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 5: Anglesey

After breakfast, pack away your kit and continue your expedition to the coast on foot and by raft. You’ll arrive in Beaumaris around mid afternoon ready to check in to the hotel that will be your base for the next few nights. At one time Wales had over 600 castles and today 100 of those still stand, either in ruins or restored. One of the most impressive is Beaumaris Castle with its ‘walls within walls’ design. If you have some energy left, spend the rest of the afternoon exploring this fascinating historic town and its magnificent castle at your own pace (or more likely, have a hot shower and crash out in a comfy bed!).

12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 6: Anglesey

Experience the incredible thrill of the fastest commercial RIB ride in the world!

Your captain will put this specially-designed high-powered boat through its paces, reaching speeds of 110km per hour or more. Once back on dry land, we’ll take you back to Beaumaris for around lunchtime. The rest of the day is yours to chill or explore.

Optional activity:

As always we like to offer something extra to do in the afternoon. It means you’re in control of tailoring your adventure to be as full-on as you want to make it. This afternoon’s activity is not for the faint-hearted – but then you wouldn’t be on this trip if you weren’t up for a kick of adrenalin, would you!

You’re in the home of the world’s fastest and Europe’s longest zipline, where you can fly through the air at speeds of over 160kph! It’s exhilaration in its purest form. Hurtle headfirst over the old slate quarry, now a vast blue lagoon, and lay claim to having done the world’s fastest zipline. Spaces fill fast so book quickly.

Cost: £85 per person
Day 7 Day 7: Anglesey
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 7: Anglesey

Optional activity:

Snowdon mountain is the jewel in the crown of Snowdonia National Park. Standing at 1,085m the views from its summit are spectacular on a clear day. Join us for a very(!) early morning hike to its peak in time to see sunrise over the stunning national park landscape. You’ll be provided with a simple packed breakfast so you can refuel while soaking up views that make you feel alive.

Please note, the sunrise hike will require a very early departure from the hotel, as early as midnight in midsummer. It’s a 40 minute drive to the hike starting point and the hike itself will take around 6 hours from base to peak and back to base, depending on the fitness of the group. If the weather forecast up Snowdon is poor and the chance of seeing a good sunrise is low, your guide will brief you on an alternative hike where you can still enjoy the exclusive beauty of a stunning sunrise.

Cost: £55 per person

This afternoon get ready to jump, climb, scramble and swim your way along the coastline of Anglesey! Coasteering combines the best of rock and water-based activities, and North Wales offers one of the best coasteering experiences you can find. Scramble across rocks, get swirled around in the water and climb tough walls as far as you can before crashing back into the waves. It’s a truly exhilarating experience and a fantastic way for you to get up close and personal with the rocky Welsh coast for your final day of adventure.
Day 8 Day 8: Anglesey
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 8: Anglesey

It’s the last morning of your adventure tour, so it’s time to pack your case and swap details with your new travel buddies.

Our minibus will take you back to the tour starting location in Llangollen to reunite you with your vehicle. Expect to leave the hotel at 11:00.

Return transfers can be arranged if required – please contact us to discuss your requirements
