Wales Destination guide

As the world leader in travel experiences since 1947, we connect you to the real Wales in a way like no other. With towering mountains melting into lakes, and ancient castles on the golden coastline, Wales is impossible not to fall in love with - and the Welsh know it. They often speak of ‘hiraeth’, a Welsh word used to describe a sense of longing for home. The country’s sweet grasslands and Snowdonia mountains move you in ways you could never imagine, and you may find your own feeling of hiraeth once you’ve seen the best of Wales. The country is well-protected, with three national parks, five Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and 42 per cent of its south and west coastline designated as Heritage Coast. You’ll also find a proudly preserved culture, with centuries-old Celtic traditions, ancient castles like Cardiff Castle, and Welsh delicacies found in Cardiff Central Market. When you travel Wales with Trafalgar, you’ll get to know the country through the locals, sharing stories over a traditional dinner or enjoying Welsh music in an old inn. Travel with us and unlock the infinite possibilities thanks to our exclusive Trafalgar Highlights.
