Private Driver-Guided Tour of North Wales from Liverpool (9 hours)

— Summary

Leave Liverpool behind and immerse yourself in North Wales on this full-day private adventure.

Our first stop is the iconic Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, where canal boats appear to float in mid-air, 38 metres above the River Dee. From there, we visit the riverside town of Llangollen, a favourite with walkers and steam-train enthusiasts.

Lunch is in Betws-y-Coed, a storybook village surrounded by ancient woodland, before we take the scenic mountain roads of Eryri (Snowdonia). Craggy peaks and dramatic valleys provide breathtaking views as we head to Caernarfon Castle, a fortress built by Edward I and still one of Britain’s most imposing medieval strongholds.

A fun stop at Llanfairpwllgwyngyll (famous for having the longest place name in Europe) gives you the chance for a quirky photo before we continue to Conwy for coffee and castle views.

Time permitting, we round off the day in Llandudno, with its elegant Victorian promenade and sweeping sea views, before returning to Liverpool in the evening.
