Excellent - Eugene was an excellent guide giving a lot of information about the city, history and culture. It was nothing exhausting and we visited the whole city centre. Missed a tour of Cardiff Bay but this would have to be on a new tour. We like great Continue Eugene with your great work. We'll be back one day...

Local bloke gave us the Cardiff lowdown - Andrew was my guide. Local guy, good bloke. Cardiff is a very pleasant smaller major city-way better than Madchester. He knew his stuff-natch. All good. Thanks!

Amazing time in Cardiff! - Absolutely great! We had an amazing time with Eugene. He knows a lot about the Welsh culture and was able to share with us perfectly. Thanks to him we’ll have to travel to Wales again to eat more Welsh cakes. I would totally repeat the experience with Fogos Free Tours and recommend to everybody!
