Mid Wales

We journey through the Brecon Beacons, with its picture perfect reservoirs, to Brecon, a beautiful cathedral town with views of the majestic mountains all around. We have some free time to explore the local shops and attractions as well as enjoying a cruise on the Monmouth and Brecon Canal. This historical waterway and fantastic feat of engineering (built before roads and railways) takes us on a scenic ride through a canal lock and over an aqueduct which carries the canal over the River Usk. We rejoin the coach at 17:00 to make our way back to South Wales.

Please be aware that the canal boat operates in all weather conditions, providing a unique experience regardless of the elements. While there are windows to enjoy the views, please note that there is no air conditioning, so it may feel warm on particularly sunny days.

If you’re looking for a weekend packed full of incredible sights and history, then this Welsh weekend could be the perfect choice. From the studious literary history of Hay-on-Wye, where even the fire station has been turned into a bookshop through to a guided tour of the stunning Elan Valley with an experienced Ranger, this weekend has it all. On top of that you'll be staying in a lovely spa hotel in the heart of pretty Llandrindod Wells.

Amongst the gems you will see on this extraordinary trip is the magnificent Elan Valley, one of the most spectacular yet undiscovered sights in the British Isles, packed full of natural and modern wonders. It’s so good that we’ll be taking a local Ranger along with us to make sure you get the very most out of your visit.

An ideal choice for:

* Lovers of Wales - or anyone curious to discover why people love it so much
* Anyone who loves discovering new sights and experiences
* People who enjoy a busy weekend away without the hassle of having to organise everything themselves
