Let an private local Blue Badge guide show you the Gower, one of the most beautiful parts of Britain.
It became UK’s first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty back in 1956 and this stunning coastal peninsular offers fabulous scenery and beaches, including Three Cliffs & Rhossili Bay. Join your private guide on a tour to discover the wild moors, limestone cliffs and golden sandy beaches of this south Wales coastline.
Most tours start in Swansea and head west into the Mumbles. Why not include a half day tour of the city of Swansea to hear about the birthplace and youth of the national poet of Wales, Dylan Thomas? Or spend more time in Swansea with a visit to the National Waterfront Museum to discover stories of steam, coal and industrial heritage.
Poetry and landscape lovers will want to visit Laugharne. This where Dylan Thomas lived until his death in 1953 – and where he conjured up his masterpiece Under Milk Wood. The town is at the end of a winding road that takes you through a string of small villages. When you arrive at Laugharne, it looks prettier than all that’s come before: pastel-hued, compact, idyllic. Your private tour guide will show you Brown’s Hotel, one of the pubs immortalised by Thomas and the famous boathouse. Take a walk with your guide up the main road to St Martin’s Church, where a simple white cross marks the resting place of Dylan and his wife Caitlin, who died in 1994.
