The Wonders of Wales

This tour provided me with background information on the history, society and culture of Wales through the ages; from Neolithic dolmen and Roman occupation to English ********** and modern self...

Excellent driver guide input but felt bit long due to it being round trip, bus travel periods would need more stops of interest so not as long between stops. Comfort stops good timing tho.
Personally...

The Wonders of Wales tour greatly exceeded our expectations. Terry, our guide was very knowledgeable and brought great insights into every destination on the tour. Dmitri, our driver made the trip...

My first time using Blue Roads. The Wonders Of Wales was excellent..
Love the small group, you get to know everyone, made friends with all. We had a great bunch!!
Our tour guide Terry was excellent...

Wales was even more beautiful than we thought. So green and our tour director and coach driver were ever helpful and interesting.

Amazing scenery and a great look back at the history of Wales. Our guide had good local knowledge and spoke Welsh. He was not great at communication and we often were just left to see places on our...

Beautiful scenery, competent guide, bus too small for 18 people and driver drove too fast

It mostly depends on the guide. Neil was excellent.

The only tour that covers most of Wales. A beautiful country and language with a lot of history. Back-Roads transport can get into places the large buses can't. A maximum of 18 people with plenty...

We had a great time and recommend anyone to experience this tour.

Good pacing, wonderful tour leader and driver. Liked the small group size and the selected accommodations.

Great trip. Truly on the back roads a small villages.

Right amount of days and activities. Good tour, knowledgeable, polite, problem solving leader, would be better with local guides versus being on our own. Nice having drinks in opening meeting but...

Chose Back Roads because of previous experience in 2018, but very disappointed with company post Covid. Driver personable, guide personable and helpful but both lacking local knowledge/history....

Terry and Ashley were great. They helped me with my disability. The places we stayed were great. Where we went was interesting. I had family from there.

Very disappointed with the tour as previous experience with Back-Roads has been excellent. The tour leader & driver were lovely people, however the lack of local knowledge & history was very obvious...

Great tour much enjoyed

I enjoyed the Wonders of Wales tour very much. Excellent tour guide Terry and driver Vince. I worked it out that the price is about the same as if we had done it all ourselves. Back Roads had...

Amazing experience made even more special by the tour leader, the bus driver and the other 15 people who accompanied us. So many interesting things to see and experience. Accommodation was excellent...

Fantastic experience visiting places and backroads we would never have otherwise gone. Friendly people and nothing was too much trouble. Totally recommend for anyone wanting to experience genuine...

Excellent tour. Well-paced and provided the opportunity to see much of the countryside and historical sights of Wales. Very good itinerary and would recommend to anyone interested undertaking a tour...

Brilliant tour, exploring many amazing sites in Wales, as our tour guide said, it was just “a small taste of Wales, there is much more to explore. The tour stops along the way gave the opportunity...

Amazing scenery. Great variety of places to visit and things to do. Tour guide, Terry, was exceptional.

Tour leader Terry was very welcoming at the meet and greet, an excellent guide with lots of historical; political and general knowledge: Shared his life experiences that were relevant to the tour. The...

Beautiful landscapes, interesting sights including castles, churches, Roman ruins and beachside towns and an interesting railroad excursion. Included dinners were excellent as were the picturesque...

The itinerary, tour director, hotels and food were all great!!!!

Efficiently organised and run.
Guide Terry was excellent and was at all times caring, calm and courteous, as well as imparting his considerable knowledge.
Accommodation was generally excellent....

An absolutely wonderful tour- covered so much in a very enjoyable, well organised manner with a fabulous tour guide.

We had a terrific 8 day tour with BackRoads. Small group of likeminded people keen to learn about Wales.
Our tour guide Terry was outstanding- knowledgeable, amusing, encouraging our questions and...

Excellent trip with interesting visits and a great guide.

We stayed at excellent hotels where the food was wonderful and staff extremely helpful and friendly. The pace was vey good, not rushed at most times. We had some authentic experiences. We really...

Fantastic hotels, and meals great value for money. Everything was done for us we just had to enjoy ourselves

“Pass by the mesmerizing” - If it’s mesmerizing, why pass by? The Welsh Language Center did not offer a lesson, merely an excuse to visit a dramatic spot. I thought Portmeirion was a weird anomaly....

Wales is a beautiful country & I thoroughly enjoyed its beauty. Snowdonia NP was my favourite scenic destination & Llandudno was a wonderful place to spend time & to explore Conway from, loved it...

Beautiful country steeped in history every place I toured was exceptional and equal on all levels

Wales is a hidden gem, the history is interesting, the locations picturesque

The tour was affordable for what was included. really got my money's worth on this tour.

Jeremy was excellent guide - showed good understanding of how to tailor commentary etc to group. Tan, the bus driver was a great driver and went the extra mile for members of group. Pace of tour was...

Outstanding value for the scope of the tour.. Blue Roads provided all the information required for an enjoyable tour.

good value for money as so much was included

Well worth the money. Accomodations were perfect and the provided meals were more than I expected.

The blend of history and beautiful landscapes along with lovely villages and friendly Welsh people made for a week of delightful discoveries.

Excellant tour. Something for everyone with a very knowledgable and kind guide who went out of his way to meet everyone's needs. The driver was excellent and his personal knowledge of the area added...

Loved the scenery and variety of experiences plus the pace of the tour was great

the cost increase was a bit more than I expected but realise that with Covid 19 most things have increased and it is still value for money.

We feel we got excellent value for our costs.

No complaints all good recommended it.

Just what I said above covers it
