You get to see several cities and have time in each to explore. The van was comfortable and there were 12 guests. The driver was very knowledgeable and played a game that helped pass the time traveling. It was a full day with pick up at 8:45 am and we returned at 6:00 pm

Was a small group (which was great!) so we all got to know each other. Wales is such a beautiful country and this was a great way to experience. Snowdonia was so gorgeous! 100% recommend.

Overview

The sights and scenery of North Wales are tricky to explore from Liverpool without a rental car. Rather than string together train and bus journeys, choose this full-day tour for the benefit of comfortable minivan transport and a guide who shares background on the sights as you travel. Walk Llandudno’s pier, follow hidden roads through Snowdonia, visit Conwy Castle (own expense), and more, to discover a beautiful corner of Britain without a care in the world.
  • See the highlights and hidden gems of North Wales in just one day—great if you're short on time
  • No research needed—just settle in and let the sights come to you
  • Travel with a guide for info and insight you’d miss if exploring alone
  • Let a driver tackle the sometimes tricky rural roads for you

Frank was an amazing guide! I didn't know what to expect with this tour since it was so inexpensive.. it was probably one of the best I've had! Frank was very knowledgable about every area he took us. I would recommend this 1000%! Beautiful scenery as well!

Interesting tour

Flemming_S, Oct 2026
This was a nice trip where we explored North Wales. The driver and guide was knowledgeable and had a sense of humour. Ann took us through the route in a professional way. The only negative about the trip was the small bus. The legroom was too tight, especially for me who is tall.

Response from Host, Nov 2026

Thank you for your positive review! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed exploring North Wales and that Ann made the trip an enjoyable experience with her knowledge and humour. We will be sure to pass your kind words on to her. Thank you also for your feedback regarding the legroom. We use standard 16-seater minibuses for our tours to create a more personalised and intimate experience, rather than using larger 53-seater coaches, which may offer more legroom. We hope to welcome you on another BusyBus adventure in the future!

Great trip!

SEOW_C, Oct 2026
We are very fortunate to have Ann as our guide and driver. She is hilarious and has a beautiful Liverpudlian accent! Despite the rainy weather throughout the journey, Ann is able to make the trip very enjoyable. She is very skillful in handling the multi task of driving efficiently and narrating the tourist attractions! Good job Ann!

Response from Host, Oct 2026

Thank you for your wonderful review! We will be sure to pass along your very kind words to Ann. We are glad you still enjoyed the tour despite the typical British rain. We hope to welcome you onboard for another BusyBus adventure soon...

Ann and the Wales Tour!

SheriH_S, Sep 2026
If you’re lucky enough to have Ann as your tour guide you’re in for a great tour of Wales! Ann makes the tour fun, humorous and also quite informative! The tour is broken up with plenty of stops and bathroom breaks. There might be some singing along on the bus if you’re up for it! My aunt, uncle and I highly recommend this tour! Ask for Ann!

Response from Host, Sep 2026

Trip to wales

Deborah_H, Sep 2026
The seaside stop in the quaint Victorian town was our favorite. Didn’t need the stop in bechnowold and could have added the time to the other stops. The only negative was the air didn’t work on the bus so it was rather stuffy.

Wonderful day

A Splendid Day in Wales

Rosemarie_A, Aug 2026
Great sights, comfy van, lively and lovely guide, Ann, a great day. Conwy was my favorite stop. Lots to see and do.

Response from Host, Oct 2026

Thank you for your positive feedback, we are glad you enjoyed your North Wales Tour with Ann.

Wonderful landscapes, nice towns

Andras_L, Aug 2026
Wonderful places, a great variety of experiences (nice towns and settlements, mountains, landscapes, coast, aqueduct etc.) One disadvantage: our guide (Adrian) has a strong dialect that we hardly understood him.

Response from Host, Aug 2026

Thank you for your 4-star review and for sharing your feedback. We're delighted you enjoyed the variety of places and experiences included in the tour. We're sorry to hear you found Adrian's accent difficult to understand. Adrian has a typical British regional accent, and as our tours are delivered in English, accents can naturally vary between our guides. We appreciate that this may take some getting used to for visitors who are less familiar with British accents. We're pleased that you otherwise enjoyed your day exploring North Wales, and we hope to welcome you back again in the future.

Don’t go to the UK without visiting Wales

Bunny, Jul 2026
This was an awesome adventure. We had one of the best knowledgeable tour guide guides. We had plenty of time at each stop. We took special pictures with his help. It was a lot of fun.

A Perfect Day Exploring Wales!!!

Mirasel_G, Jul 2026
We were surprised by how beautiful North Wales is. Our tour guide, Shelly, took us to places we never expected to see, allowing us to experience the true wonders of Wales. We really appreciated how safely she drove and how comfortably she shared interesting facts about every place we visited. She made the entire trip enjoyable and informative. We'll definitely be returning to North Wales. Highly recommended!

Lovely day

Beth_K, Jul 2026
Absolutely fantastic day!! We especially loved exploring Conwy castle and the snowdonia park. The entire trip was beautiful. Anne was engaging, kind, and informative. She had just the right mix of history, humor, and time without talking (with good music) to gaze at the scenery. We had such a nice time and were glad to be able to spend a day outside of the big cities.

Hidden Gem

Chris_W, Jul 2026
North Wales was just stunning - a highlight of our 10 days in the UK. Our tour guide was funny and informative!

Great sampling

Tracy_M, Jul 2026
Great tour. It really gives you a taste of Wales if you don’t have time to explore on your own or access to a vehicle. Perfect day trip from Liverpool. Nice mix of locations (seaside resort area, cute little towns, park) and I did not feel too short on time anywhere. I see some reviews that say they would have liked longer hike time - so if this is what you are after, you should probably go on your own and stay in the area to hike. It is not a hiking adventure, but a sampling of areas.

Perfect driver to North-Wales

Diana_M, Jul 2026
It was a very nice trip, beautiful villages and wonderful landscapes. In a minibus with 16 persons , the driver-guide Anne was a perfect storyteller even with the right kind of music. She made the trip unforgetable for us.

Beautiful countryside!

Randy_H, Jul 2026
Nice tour with 5 stops. Some of the stops we only had 30- 40 minutes. Not enough time to do much! I would personally drop a stop and add more time to the other 4 stops! Beautiful countryside though and well worth the trip! Our driver Allen was top notch!!

AWonderful Fay in Wales with A Professional Wonder Guide

Sara_W, Jul 2026
That it is so fantastic, especially if you’re fortunate to have a knowledgeable, personable, professional gentleman like we were so privileged to have yesterday!!

It’s All Because Of The Tour Guide

Sharyn_C, Jul 2026
It was a pleasure from beginning to end. A long day with our tour guide Anthony keeping us amused and informed all along the way. He clearly loves his job and this encompasses the whole day. Thank you Anthony.
