About this activity

Visit three different castles around Cardiff in one day.

Starting with Caerphilly Castle, the largest Castle in Wales. After exploring the Castle, you will be taken to the magical Fairy-tale Castle, Castell Coch, nestled in the hills to the north of Cardiff, overlooking the Welsh Capital.

Depending on how long you spend at Caerphilly Castle and Castell Coch, you may have time to visit the 900 year old Llandaff Cathedral. Finally, you will be taken to Cardiff Castle in the heart of the city, where you will be left to visit the Castle, and independently explore the city centre and its Victorian arcades.

You will be free to explore Caerphilly Castle, Castell Coch & Llandaff Cathedral independently in your own time and at your own pace returning to your driver in your own time, who will be ready to move on when you are.
