I am a North Wales Official Tour Guide and licensed Private Hire Vehicle operator. I offer tours which can include a walking element if required. I'm from the Isle of Anglesey, Wales. I am a first language Welsh speaker, a proud Welshman and would love to take you with me to explore parts of my beautiful country. Whatever your group size or duration a tour can be customised to meet your requirements. Enjoy the spectacular scenery of Wales, learn its history and mythical stories, experience the culture and language and understand what the welsh words and names mean, You really can't be more of a local tour guide than me with my history of family ties with the Island going back many generations. There's nowhere I don't know something about in Anglesey or North Wales (I think!). Tour with me in vehicle or on foot or a combination of both. All tours can customized to suit. My personal interests are the geography & history of our historical parts of the UK, as well as most sports, especially Golf. If its Golf your looking for, perhaps I can help here too with places to stay, transfers and competitive amateur events in the area. I provide great value for money and an authentic immersion into our community. Tours can be customized and themed to the travelers requirements, e. g. Single day/multiple Days, hotel bookings, start/end locations, ancestry searches, ancient sites, religious sites, hiking routes, Cycling options. Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Explore Section of the Anglesey Coastal Path 4 mile Bridge to Penrhos Coastal park to Holyhead!
Overview of your Holyhead tour
At the village of Four Mile Bridge, there is an ancient crossing point to the main island of Anglesey. On this tour, we will follow the Anglesey Coastal path along the shoreline, until we cross the Stanley Embankment built in the 1820s, which connects Anglesey with its holy island. Don't miss the chance to enter an enchanted Victorian Forest at Penrhos Coastal Park with its Victorian follies and ruined formal gardens of the once powerful Stanley Family. You will also get the unique opportunity to stroll along the white sands of the private beach where the Stanleys once relaxed. We may be lucky to get a glimpse of rare native Red Squirrels at this forest, which has given sanctuary to them for years. From nature to culture, along the coastline, we'll see architecture from the 19th Century before we enter Holyhead's urban landscape. Significant buildings and memorials will be encountered and discussed culminating at the ancient church of Saint Cybi, set within 4th Century Ruins of a Roman Maritme Fort.
