Head to Barry Island for a 3-hour ‘Gavin and Stacey’ TV location tour based on the popular British series that charted an endearing romance between the couple, making comedy of their cultural differences with hilarious results. As Stacey’s home town, the peninsula town of Barry is littered with filming sites, and the tour introduces you to the best ones. See where characters like Nessa worked, and walk on the street where Uncle Bryn lived. As they say in Barry, ‘come and see what’s occurring’!

My teenage son is a massive Dr Who fan and we booked the walking and bus tour 4 months ago. He was so looking forward to going but is poorly and unable to go and is absolutely gutted. The company do not offer any refunds or even the chance to re-book another Date which is absolutely terrible customer service. Be careful before you book.

We took the City Sightseeing Bus Tour and throughly enjoyed it. It took us down to Cardiff Bay. Which was nice but really cold. I can imagine on a hot sunny day it would be amazing down there but it wasn’t quite like it yesterday. I’m glad we done it though as it was really interesting. The guide was really nice. Made little jokes and was really enjoyable.
