Well worth your time - The day was great! Despite spotty rain and low visibility at times, the beauty of North Wales was amazing. There were plenty of stops that were timed well. Our guide and driver Frank was very informative, funny and made the tour fun and engaging. I would do this again the next time I'm in the UK.

Great Visit to Northern Wales - Shelley did a great job of getting us lots of information about the places we visited. SHe also kept the group on time.

Lovely introduction to some of the highlights of North Wales - Lovely experience that highlighted some of North Wales beautiful scenery and gorgeous towns. Our guide Shelly was informative, entertaining and provided us with a great overview and introduction to this beautiful part of the world. Highly recommend.

Amazing Wales Experience - Highly recommend this tour with Busy Bus. Our tour guide Shelly was very knowledgeable and friendly and made the tour. The places visited were beautiful and interesting. It was cold and rained but we still very much enjoyed this tour.

Fun trip with great guide - What was supposed to be a very gloomy, rainy day for our North Wales Busy Bus tour turned out to be fabulous. The rain held off till the last hour and we got to see how beautiful the area was in the sunshine. Our guide, Lee, was a big part of making it special. His entertaining banter kept us all amused throughout the day. He seemed to know a lot about the area.

Land of my father’s fathers - This was my first visit to Wales, land of my long-ago ancestors. What simply breath-taking views of both hillsides and shorelines! The local folks are exceptionally friendly. We felt at home in northern Wales and hope to be able to visit again one day soon.

Wonderful Wales. - Great tour leader. We saw a great deal and took great photos. Wales is very under rated in my opinion- Snowdonia rivals Glencoe in Scotland.

great trip - saw a lot, guide/driver Frank was entertaining and infomative. The trip covered all the expected spots was a great exposure to North Wales, everything was done on time, pickup, stops, end all on time

More than I expect. - The perfect adventure in an outstanding tour. It was a fantastic experience, I recommend this tour with a good and professional guide. I'll repeat this with the busy bus on another trip.

My dream to see Snowdonia has come true - Today was the day I was waiting for many years to come. I had been trying to find out the way to visit North Wales without a car for a long time and then stumbled upon a full day tour to North Wales from Chester. The tours run mostly from Liverpool but I didn’t want to stay there. I booked my tour with BusyBus way ahead of time and the day has finally come. There were 12 adults on our tour (kids are not allowed) and the ride was in the comfortable Mercedes minibus (air conditioned). The name of the tour is “Sightseeing Day Tour to North Wales from Chester”. We were very lucky with our tour guide, Frank. He is not only a great storyteller, but also a superb driver. It is hard to believe how masterfully he was managing all the hairpin curves on the most narrow road imaginable. Talking about a virtuoso driver… The bus came from Liverpool, so Frank did a short drive through Chester Center to show his passengers how beautiful historic Chester is. We crossed the Welsh Border. That was very obvious because the road signs were in two languages: English and Welsh. Our guide offered the black sheep game to us, which I decided not to participate in because I was busy spotting castles along the road. There are 600 castles in Wales! After an hour, we arrived in Llandudno, popular Victorian sea resort. I can’t say that I was very impressed. Victorian houses in pastel colors were very pretty, but I don’t like resorts in general… that’s why I wasn’t overjoyed. The good thing was that I got a much needed cup of espresso at the small cafe. Note that toilets are for customers only everywhere in Llandudno. The real fun has begun after we left Llandudno: we were on the curvy narrow road leading to Great Orme. I honestly don’t know how drivers negotiate those hairpin turns dangerously coming close to the cliffs, but Frank has done it was such ease! We safely reached Great Orme, looked at the tramway on top of the mountain, passed by atmospheric St.Tudno Church and its cemetery, and continued our ride in the clouds. The weather somewhat improved, the rain stopped, and we were able to see Snowdonia National Park as well as Puffin Island and Anglesey Island at the distance. Below the scary road you can take a look at the clustered gorgeous houses called Millionaire’s Row. The best thing was that the weather has drastically improved: no rain and glimpses of sunshine by the time we arrived to Conwy. The descent was less dramatic, where we were allowed enough time for Conwy Castle, the Suspension Bridge, and sweeping views of the sea. The charge to enter the Castle is £12 and it’s so worth the price: Conwy Castle is one of the most magnificent fortresses in Europe, which still towers over the town of Conwy after 700 years. It was built by Edward I and served as a mighty fortress, which had Royal Apartments as well. Highly recommend to dive into the history of the old days and take an exciting walk within the walls of Conwy Castle. I still had some time left, so I went to the nearby café and had a scone with jam and clotted cream with tea. Delicious! Off we go listening to the National Anthem of Wales. Passed by the Dragon’s Nest (didn’t see the dragon), then Village of Bethesda with the longest zip line in the world and a row of abandoned miners’ cottages. And finally we arrived to Snowdonia National Park in glorious sunshine. Frank generously gave us an hour, so I did two little hikes admiring heavenly green mountains, dramatic rocks, lovely purple flowers… I knew that Snowdonia is a marvel, but I didn’t expect to see such overwhelming grandeur. Definitely one of the most spectacular places I have ever been to. No wonder Snowdonia is the place where Game of Thrones, Season 2, was filmed… Mount Snowdon was visible too and very brave mountaineers attempt to climb. The Everest climbers are getting their vigorous training in Snowdonia. However, there are easier trails to get to the summit and there is a train too. Our next stop was at Betws-y-coed, the unofficial capital of North Wales. It is a tourist trap with abundance of tacky shops, cafes and ice cream parlors. Finally we passed through Llangollen and arrived to the site of Pontcysyllte Aqueduct built in 1795 and surrounding canals. This eleven miles long complex is the World Heritage Site and is a true engineering marvel. The walk along the canal flowing along the bridge was quite scary because the pass is narrow, very close to the water, and people were walking from both directions. After this amazing adventure our tour was over and we were on your way back to Chester and Liverpool listening to the Beatles biggest hits.. I arrived to Chester safely and that was the end of this most enjoyable day. Frank, you made my day! Thank you!
