What's the best time to visit Cardiff?

Spring (April-May) and autumn (September-October) are ideal - you get decent weather for castle walks and valley hikes without peak summer crowds. Winter's wet but moody; summer's fine if you book accommodation early.

How far ahead should I book tours?

A week or two is usually fine for most day tours, but the longer 3-day tours that cover Pembrokeshire beaches or the full Brecon Beacons circuit fill faster - book 2-3 weeks ahead if you have fixed dates.

Are private guides really worth it in South Wales?

Yes, especially for castle tours and valley drives. The stories matter (Roman Caerleon, Tintern's history), roads are narrow and easy to miss turns, and a guide'll know which walks suit your pace. Small group tours split the cost and you'll still get the context.

Can I get around without a car?

Locally in Cardiff, yes - it's walkable. But for Tintern Abbey, Brecon Beacons, or Pembrokeshire, you'll need either a guided tour or rental; public transport between these spots is patchy.

What's usually included in day tours from Cardiff?

Hotel pickup, a guide, and entrance fees to castles or abbey ruins - check before you go whether lunch is included or if you're stopping at villages to eat yourself.

Are the walks strenuous?

Ranges from gentle riverside strolls (Wye Valley floor) to proper hill hikes (Brecon Beacons peaks). Tours usually offer options - ask your operator what suits your fitness level.

Can kids and older visitors join these tours?

Most castle and abbey tours are fine for all ages, though young kids get restless on long drives. Brecon Beacons walks vary - check the specifics for your tour and mention accessibility needs when booking.

Tudor Cardiff: A Self-Guided Audio Tour
Long ago Tudor Cardiff faded into history, along with almost all of its buildings. Today, Cardiff is a bustling, modern city so it’s hard to believe that in the mid-1500s it was just a tiny port and market town on the River Taff. On this GPS-guided walking tour, you'll look beyond the modern buildings at the clues that tell the city’s story of fame and notoriety in the days of the powerful Tudor dynasty. As you make your way through the city centre, I’ll point out the only two remaining Tudor buildings and reveal the curious origin of some of Cardiff’s street names like Womanby, Golate and Wharton Streets. You’ll hear what life was like back in Tudor Cardiff, including how different the daily diets of the rich and poor were and how literacy meant there were different laws for the different social classes. And on your way to Bute Park, where the tour ends, you’ll pass by St John The Baptist City Parish Church’s striking tower, Gorsedd Stone Circle, and the spectacular Cardiff Castle.
