INCLUDED EXCURSIONS
1. CAERNARFON AND PORT MEIRION A magnificent journey today takes us along the shores of Conwy Bay to Caernarfon, with its impressive castle beside the harbour. We then turn inland and travel via Beddgelert to the captivating village of Port Meirion, where few visitors are prepared for the elegant and compact dreamscape they encounter. Renowned for its fine pottery, the Italian style village was also used as the setting for the 1960's cult TV series "The Prisoner". We see more of Snowdonia as our return journey takes us via the famous Llanberis Pass and Llanberis, at the foot of Mount Snowdon.

Here we visit the splendid coastal resort of Beaumaris, with its 13th century Castle, Victorian gaol, and Museum of Childhood.
