    Our tour guide was excellent. He knew the routes, the cities and the history. Plus he was very entertaining. The tour itself was good but there was a lot of windshield time between some of the locations. Accommodations were excellent also but if we had to do it again we’d choose the hotel option instead of the B&B’s. The B&B’s were charming and very well kept however we had 3-4 flights of stairs in both to get to our room while the hotels had elevators.

    A really great and efficient way to experience Wales, with two bonus stops in the Cotswolds. The small group size, accommodation, and itinerary with maximum 2hr legs was great. Our tour guide John was great and had a wicked sense of humour. As a highly independent traveller this trip suited my needs, but for those who are less independent may find it isolating at times e.g. there are no organised meals together - it’s entirely up to the group. In terms of wants, I would have liked more opportunities to explore e.g. short to half day hikes. We visit several national parks but rarely got to explore trails unless it was an old path to a site. That being said, the lack of physical activity suits older and less able bodied travellers.

    Just realised I hadn't reviewed on this site although did elsewhere. Found Tourradar great to work with. The tour ran as per itinerary and apart from the rainy days enjoyed Wales. Did not enjoy travelling with Rabbie's the mini bus was uncomfortable and the driving too fast. It appeared the driver/guide was just there to do the job did not really interact well. It may have been my miss-reading but did not realise that all on bus did not stay at same accommodation we were spread out in various hotels at most locations. Although we had breakfast included we had to walk to another hotel to have it. Have been on many mini bus tours with other operators and have enjoyed most.

    We enjoyed the company of a small group of people. The group, along with the driver was flexible which allowed us all to participate in our interests. Our accommodation in Tenby was excellent. Host Huw, was warm and welcoming and breakfast was delicious! We wondered why our accommodation in Aberystwyth did not include breakfast on site. Whilst the breakfast location was close, it did mean that we had a rush to return for ablutions prior to the day’s activity.

    Jean

    Asked on May 12th, 2025

    Can you clarify for 9/13-17 about the different itinerary/map between Discover Wales direct site and Tourradar

    Tour Details
    • Rabbie's ToursOperatorWritten May 2025

      Can you clarify the difference that you are seeing? Is there a place in particular you are hoping to visit? The maps don't show the roads used as they jump from one location to another, they can look a bit different because of that.

  • A

    Adam

    Asked on April 29th, 2025

    I just wanted to double check my bag will be acceptable for this tour. Lengthwise it's slightly over your approximate dimensions however the remainder of the measurements fit the requirements. My bag is 60cm x 42cm x 27.5cm

    Transport
    • Rabbie's ToursOperatorWritten April 2025

      Do you know how much your bag weighs? The size is less important than the weight for our tours, so if your bags are this size but still under the weight limit of 20kgs or 44lbs per person this will be fine.

    • A

      Adam

      TravelerWritten April 2025

      Yes I believe I would struggle to get that bag to weigh that match. Last time I had it fully packed it was 16kg.

    • Rabbie's ToursOperatorWritten April 2025

      Perfect, this should be no problem for the tour then!

    Could you tell me which villages you will be going through on your way to Cardiff so we could meet the bus in an agreed place in Cotswold rather than traveling back to London. Will that be at Cardiff airport

      Can you tell me what time we arrive at St Fagans and if possible to be picked up at Burton on the Water or close by on the way to wales?

    • Rabbie's ToursOperatorWritten April 2025

      On day one of this tour, we visit Burford between 11:15am and 12pm. If you wanted to meet the tour in Burford, we should be able to arrange this. On the final day of the tour, we stop in St Fagans between 11am and 1pm. You are welcome to leave the tour here and make your own way to the airport. Alternatively, you can also leave later in the day at Castle Combe around 3:30pm.

    Is it possible to leave the tour before returning to London?

    Tour Details
    Transport
    • Rabbie's ToursOperatorWritten April 2025

      Yes you are able to leave this tour before we return to London. On the final day you will be in Tenby in Wales so you are welcome to depart there. Please note you will need to make your own way from there back to London to catch your Eurostar in the evening. The easiest way to make this journey would be via train, you will need to change at Swansea and from there get a train to London and the journey takes around 4.5 hours. We are able to advise you how to make this journey but you will need to book the trains yourself. We will not be able to alter the tour price if you decide to leave a day early.

    • H

      Holly

      TravelerWritten April 2025

      Is there a possibility to prebook the tour for 2, with accommodation in bed and breakfast?

    • Rabbie's ToursOperatorWritten April 2025

      We are not able to prebook the tour, but you are welcome to book it once you are ready (subject to availability).

    do your tour buses have bathrooms onboard?

    Transport
    • Rabbie's ToursOperatorWritten March 2025

      we run 16-seater mini-buses, so there is no bathroom on any of our vehicles. The itinerary for each tour includes frequent stops, every 1.5h at most, at location with access to public bathrooms, though.

    Chris

    Asked on March 20th, 2025

    Is there any chance that there is an opening or spare spot available for this date?

    Price / Availability
    • Rabbie's ToursOperatorWritten March 2025

      We currently still have 1 seats available for the tour departing on the 24 March, but only with Hotel accommodation.

    • C

      Chris

      TravelerWritten March 2025

      How much would the total cost be with the tour and the accommodation? Is the accommodation a sole room or shared?

    • Rabbie's ToursOperatorWritten March 2025

      If you are travelling solo on this tour we will book you a private single en-suite room. For the tour departing on 24th March, the cost for a single person would be £1282.75. This includes the accommodation and your entrance to Harlech Castle.

      Scott

      TravelerWritten March 2025

      Would it be possible for their friend (who are currently in the UK) to join last minute, or take partial services for certain parts of the adventure?

    • Rabbie's ToursOperatorWritten March 2025

      We work with a number of suppliers in each of the overnight towns. We are unable to confirm the name of the property until the customer has booked onto the tour, as it will depend on our availability of allocated rooms on the customer's dates.

    • Rabbie's ToursOperatorWritten March 2025

      We are able to accept bookings as long as there are seats and accommodations available. I would advise aiming to make a booking at least 4-weeks in advance. We do not offer a 'partial service', no. If the customer does not have a confirmed booking for the full duration of the tour, they would not be permitted to join the bus for a small section of the tour.

    Price / Availability
    Single supplement
    Tour Details
    • Rabbie's ToursOperatorWritten March 2025

      For departure on 31 March, the price for a single person staying in a B&B would be £910.75; the price increases for departures in April. This includes admission to Harlech Castle and the 4x nights stay in B&B accommodation. There aren't any other admissions included in the tour price, but there may be optional extras on tour, such as Pembroke Castle (£10) or Newton House in the Dinefwr Estate (£11).

    • J

      Jessica

      TravelerWritten March 2025

      I have decided that I cannot afford this tour as the exchange rate for the South African Rand is so poor. Maybe in the future.

    Accommodation
    Single supplement
    • Rabbie's ToursOperatorWritten March 2025

      Yes we are able to book a single room for you if you are travelling solo on this tour. The price depends on the type of accommodation you choose. We can offer B&B or Hotel accommodation. For the B&B single room package, the rate is £1094.50 and the Hotel package price is £1486.50. These prices are based on a September departure date, we have seasonal pricing so it's different depending on the time of year you choose to travel.
