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 well as rare natural habitats for wildlife. One of Wales’s best kept secrets, the region has a rich and diverse history dating back to well before Roman times. Exploring the rugged Cambrian Mountains, lakes, waterfalls of the Brecon Beacons and forests!
You may have seen the Guardian and Observer recently gave the Heart of Wales line some much needed publicity last weekend. Although we were pleased to see that the 122 mile railway line that runs through the very “heart” of Wales from Craven Arms all the way to South Wales was given the platform to reach millions of readers throughout the UK (and the world) we were rather disappointed that many parts of and highlights linked to the line were not included. However rather than dwell on that fact we thought we would compliment the article by listing 5 other things you can see and do along the Heart of Wales railway line!
So in the mini series we will feature a church or chapel on our tours. The first of which is the Church of St Mary the Virgin in Capel-y-Ffin near Hay on Wye!
One of Europe’s oldest mountain ranges, the Cambrian Mountains of Wales, has launched its first ever visitor map and it features Welsh Overland Safari!
On Sunday 21st October 2018, Richard guided the Wye Life walking and camera club on their second Welsh Overland experience!
What a great open tour of waterfall country in the Brecon Beacons National Park!
Don't just take our word for it!
We are delighted to announce our second Open Tour of the Autumn!
On Sunday the 28th October Richard will be taking an open tour on the very popular Abergwesyn Pass tour!
On Tuesday 2nd October Richard took part in a Brecon Beacons National Park course to maintain his ambassador status for the next 12 months.
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....
Thanks for showing us such a wonderful time in Wales. You have such a lovely country and I’m so glad we had a chance to explore it with you.
We thoroughly enjoyed our day with Richard touring the more remote areas of Mid Wales, including the Elan Valley. We feel we have learned the myths and legends alongside the history of this beautiful area. Richard is a truly knowledgable and entertaining host. We look forward to another of his tours next year.
