Get rid of that crappy pub. - Fantastic tour, cracking tour guide, well worth every penny and more. Only downside was the tour didn't take us to the caravan park in Rhoose which it states online that it does. And you go to a pub called the Three Horses I think, not in the program at all. The bar manager or owner 100% totally rude, would never return. But the tour (without the crappy pub) was absolutely tidy, if truth be told.

Fantastic experience 10/10 - Fantastic!!! Best activity we have done in a long time. We were so impressed by the quality of this tour! You get to ride the real Dave Coaches bus and visit authentic locations. There are SO many photo opportunities on the way and you are encouraged to take as many photos as you can! A fantastic tour I would recommend to lots of fans and also would do again! Excellent.

Amazing Experience!!! - Asbolutely amazing from start to finish!!! Me and my friend went on this tour today & it was the best thing weve ever done yet! We paid £34 for this experience & it was absolutely jam packed with prime locations, streets, scenes etc & was well worth the money. Our tour guide & driver were excellent - we had Carry & Levi! Whether you're a Gavin & Stacey fan or not I would highly recommend booking this

Gavin and Stacey tour - ‘Knock off Nessa’ was brilliant, had seen her on GMB so was looking forward to it and she did not disappoint. We got stuck in unexpected traffic and she kept it fun and entertaining. Well done to ‘Dave’ the driver too. Good fun for the afternoon.

Amazing experience! - We were lucky enough to have Knock-off Nessa aka the lovely Kaz to be our tour guide on the day we were not disappointed! What an absolute star. A wonderful tour in the real Daves coaches bus that creaks at the seams and gives you a few heart palpitations about whether it'll make the Barry inclines! 'Dave' the coach driver is a great partner in crime to Knock-off Nessa and his driving skills on the small lanes are 👌🏻. Glenda is a national treasure to allow fans into her house and Kaz really looks after her. The tour is well out together and the 3 hours flew by. Many of the Barry locals give you waves going past so you do get the feeling of this being an institution that people are proud of. Well worth the time and costs, its absolutely crackin'!!!

a grand 1/2 day out! - so often these things can be a let down. this was 100% not that! a fantastic 1/2 day tour with lots of laughs and sing songs on the way. the coach is brilliant (it's the real thing) the guide was brilliant and really got everyone involved. 10/10 and if you are a fan absolutely unmissable. one small thing that would make it even better would be a list of additional filming location postcodes so we could have visited those a little further away on our own time. but overall brilliant! or should i say crackin'

Gavin and Stacey tour with the real Nessa body double - If you're lucky enough to get Kaz - the real Nessa body double (the body not the hair) - you're in for a treat! What an amazing experience. Seeing all the sights with amazing commentary and an endless supply of legendary lines from Nes on tap is unbeatable! We had great laugh and a good time with lovely people! Thanks guys we had a blast!!!
