Brilliant Tour

JANE_K, May 2024

Learnt a lot about Cardiff great tour wonderful location very interesting. Don’t miss it was so easy to use too!

Informative and easy to use!

Rebekah_N, Aug 2023

This was a great audio tour. The tech was excellent, the tour worked off your location and it was easy to stop the audio if you wanted to spend longer at a stop, then resume when ready. Information provided was excellent. Great way to walk around Cardiff Bay, highly recommend, it’s excellent value!

Great explanation and it...

Jessica_M, Nov 2022

Great explanation and it was lovely to put the phone away and just listen. The narrator was very knowledgeable and I feel I know a lot about Cardiff bay now. I would definitely get another when I can.
