Great tour! - This was a fantastic way to see Cardiff. Tony was our guide and made it truly enjoyable. He was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and went out of his way to make sure we all got something out of the tour. Our daughter loves art, so he showed her art installations and sculptures. Our son is a Dr Who fan so he made sure to get some great show related photo ops for us. Highly recommend.

Great Experience - Rob was an excellent guide and tailored the tour to our wishes to make it an active experience with about 5-6 miles of walking. Knowledgeable, personable and with a good sense of humor. We enjoyed his company and him showing us around his city

An Amazing Day in Cardiff, Made So by an Extraordinary Man - This was an extraordinary day made so by an extraordinary man. Private tours are always a treat, and Tony was so kind, generous and full of excitement for his beautiful city of Cardiff. We seemed like friends within no time. When we wanted a coffee, Tony said "wait, I'll take you to the best one", and he certainly did. This was our first time to Wales and from his efforts to help us appreciate the Welsh language and to share perspectives gained from his former career as an educator, it was an amazing day. Without asking, he also spent the day shooting photos, and then shared these incredible collages I've linked here. Just an amazing experience, and as a veteran of many tours, we were overcome with his genuine spirit, kindness and knowledge.
