This tour wasn't just about J.R.R Tolkien and how Wales inspired him to write the best story ever written. Being from North Wales this was the perfect opportunity for my partner and I to explore so much more of Wales, our country.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us Rob!

I can't recommend the tour enough. I was picked up and returned to my hotel. I have read a lot about Owain Glwndwr , the trip answered a lot of questions about his life in the context of the wild countryside he lived in."

It's so much more rewarding to have a personal detailed tour than joining a big commercial bus that barely can touch the main highlights.... Thank you and we hope a lot more will be able to have the joy of your company to experience Wales from such a great tour guide as you are! Roedd yn wych!"
