The Home of Guided Tours of Mid Wales

We have had a very few May tours;

Three highlights were:

- We took Mr & Mrs Phillips on the Abergwesyn Pass tour - their son had brought them vouchers for a tour for Christmas

On Saturday 16th June we are holding a special Father's day tour of the Elan Valley, near Rhayader to celebrate the day specially reserved for your dad AND we still have a couple of places remaining!

As you will probably already know Wales is packed full of myths and legends from north to south, from east to west. However on our Abbeys tour Richard will tell you the story of the left leg of Henry Hughes Cooper buried at Saint Mary's Church near Strata Florida....

We are delighted to announce the first four open tours for visitors to book on as solo travellers or as friends!

Following our recent trip with the Wye life and Hereford walking and camera club we caught up with budding member Sara Ayliffe to find out about her experience as part of the trip.

It was great to take a group of like minded walkers and photographers on a tour of waterfall county. Although the group was far bigger than a group we've taken out before, I think everyone enjoyed it and there have been plenty of amazing pictures flying around facebook already and I'm sure more will follow. Hopefully the group will be keen for another tour later in the year

The six nations is in full swing and although the result didn't go our way at the weekend there is a lot still to play for!

On the subject of Rugby, the national sport of Wales we were honoured to take ex professional rugby union player Jason Chandler on a tour earlier in the year.

One of the extra's we can offer is that we can cater for dogs as part of our tours if you bring your pet with you as part of your holiday. We have a luxury bus that can hold up to 8 guests, be it guests or your pet.

You may or may not be aware our friends at Pwllgwilym Cottages B&B have created their own 12 days of Christmas based on things in and around Mid Wales!

We are pleased that on day seven they have chosen "Seven Tours with Richard" -  as Welsh Overland Safari is an independent guided tour company offering unique overland guided tours of some of the most beautiful, unspoilt landscapes in Europe

As advent calendars start to get opened and people start rushing around for last minute presents you know we are in the full swing of winter!

But did you know winter is one of the most fascinating times of the year here in Mid Wales and The Brecon Beacons. Here Richard picks a highlight or two from a pick of the seven tours on offer that you are only likely to experience in the winter months!
