    Great video, been going to Saundersfoot and Tenby since i was little and my family and I go every year. My nan and grandad visited every year for 60 years!

      I think I've lost count of how many times I've been to Tenby😂 Wales was always my family holiday destination when I was younger!

    Ah Bedd Gelert is my favourite story - so sad! We’re from North Wales and definitely need to explore the Pembrokeshire coast!

      I'm heading back to Pembrokeshire next summer because even after spending almost a week there, there were still so many more things to do that I missed!

    A decent tour there Alex. I'm familiar with Cardiff, Aberystwyth and have enjoyed an ascent of Snowdon but all else is new. Mid Wales I know well but I have still loads to explore in wales. Thanks for sharing. Mark

    You need to go to harlech castle it has stunning views . There is also a castle in Criccieth that’s worth a visit . Wales is a stunning country but I guess being Welsh I am biased 😂 fab video so glad you enjoyed your road trip around god’s country

    • @AlexTravels1
      @AlexTravels1  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      We did indeed visit Harlech Castle recently, but I'm yet to finish the video I filmed there. The views were incredible, and Criccieth is amazing as well. We visited Criccieth in this video here (right at the end): th-cam.com/video/E0T1AjfRc4w/w-d-xo.html
      We love Wales too, always can't wait to go back!

      It certainly is! Although North Wales will forever be my favourite place to hike around, I was actually just in Snowdonia & Anglesey last week, it never disappoints!

    Wonderful video. Did you stay on campsites? How was the parking ? Thank you in advance

    • @AlexTravels1
      @AlexTravels1  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks! Glad you enjoyed! We stayed in only 2 different accommodations, one around Pembrokeshire and one in Snowdonia, we always look for cheaper deals so we found a caravan site called Pendine Sands and we stayed in a Travelodge in Porthmadog. Usually when trying to travel on a cheaper budget camping and AirB&B are what we use.
      In regards to parking it was easy, I think being in Wales there was always parking available close to everywhere we visited and never had to pay more than £1-£2 for it. Hope that helps!

    Gower peninsula in Swansea you should definitely take a trip there and Brecon beacons national park is worth going to and Mumbles all so in Swansea they have two great ice cream parlours Joe's ice cream and Verdi's do lovely food there as well as ice cream at Verdi's

    • @AlexTravels1
      @AlexTravels1  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'm hopefully heading to the Gower peninsula this summer! I went years ago and remember loving it (especially Worm's Head) so it'll be great to head back and film a video there! Thanks for the tips!
