Brilliant and good fun - We really enjoyed the Gavin & Stacey tour, Carrie and ‘Dave’ were amazing from the start and seeing the famous red coach coming down the road to pick us up was brilliant and made the experience such good fun. The highlight of the tour was visiting Stacey’s house and the fact that you can go in all the rooms.

Cracking tour and experience - a must do for all Gavin & Stacey fans! - This far exceeded any expectations I had, what a memorable experience - one I'd thoroughly recommend to anyone. A fabulous group to share a few hours walking in the footsteps of our fav show and hero's; Gavin, Stacey, Nessa and Smithy! I cannot believe the number of key locations we got to visit and all the inside scoop from behind the scenes from our amazing tour guides... one of my best days ever whilst in the UK visiting from New Zealand.

Lived up to expectations! - This tour is a must for Gavin & Stacey fans! The highlight was visiting the Tadross Hotel (the Dolphin) and going into Gwen and Stacey’s house. Travelling round on the real Dave’s Coaches made the experience even better too! I was so excited for this tour and it lived up to expectations - definitely worth the money. Carrie from Barry was a fantastic tour guide: so enthusiastic and made everyone laugh non stop. We did stop at a pub unrelated to the show half way through which was a bit random but good for a drink and toilet break. Probably would make more sense to stop at the Colcot Arms instead as this was used as the ‘Coach and Horses’ Essex pub in the show which we passed twice on the coach. It was so surreal being on Barry beach after watching the show so many times and we loved seeing Nessa’s slots and grabbed a drink from Marco’s. Definitely worth doing if you’re in the area!
