Make sure to leave a like on the video if you enjoyed! Let me know in the comments if you have or are planning your Wales road trip! Thankyou for watching!
Thank you for portraying such a positive light on our country 👍🏻💛
This seems to be a very charming city, I hope I can visit in the future when all this is over. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much!
You probably dont care but if you're bored like me atm you can stream pretty much all of the new movies and series on InstaFlixxer. Have been binge watching with my gf for the last few weeks :)
Great video, got a lot of inspiration and gained alot of places to explore from your videos! thank you :)
Thanks, glad you enjoyed! I honestly feel Wales has an endless amount of things to offer!
Nice one man, looking to do a very similar trip this summer once I've finished my van conversion. Some great inspiration here, cheers
I'd love to convert a van in the future! But Wales would be an epic trip for a campervan! Glad you enjoyed the video!
A decent tour there Alex. I'm familiar with Cardiff, Aberystwyth and have enjoyed an ascent of Snowdon but all else is new. Mid Wales I know well but I have still loads to explore in wales. Thanks for sharing. Mark
Fantastic video & thanks for sharing Alex. Definitely be visiting soon! 😀
Thanks for watching, I'm glad you enjoyed!
Great video, been going to Saundersfoot and Tenby since i was little and my family and I go every year. My nan and grandad visited every year for 60 years!
I think I've lost count of how many times I've been to Tenby😂 Wales was always my family holiday destination when I was younger!
Ah Bedd Gelert is my favourite story - so sad! We’re from North Wales and definitely need to explore the Pembrokeshire coast!
I'm heading back to Pembrokeshire next summer because even after spending almost a week there, there were still so many more things to do that I missed!
Hey Alex, really enjoying this. We’re from North Wales. Just realised we have already commented. We’ve subbed and looking forward to checking out more of your videos 🍻
Thanks for watching and I'm glad you enjoyed! We always love exploring North Wales, one of our favourite places. We have many more videos from North Wales, you can find out full playlist here: czcams.com/play/PLoliWvnVweHsn6DLWMUF4mZbEHL9R8ZTK.html
Great Wales Road trip, thanks for sharing
Thanks, glad you enjoyed! It was my highlight of my summer of 2020!
We plan to visit Wales and this video is really helpful. We're landing in Manchester and doing a similar trip in the opposite direction. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful! Enjoy your trip, every corner of Wales is beautiful!
Really good video, thoroughly enjoyed! I live in west wales, just so you know, Pendine is pronounced Pen - dyne 😉
Thanks, glad you enjoyed! And thanks for the pronounciation advice, no matter how much I try Welsh words always seem to get the better of me😂
@@AlexTravels1 hahah I get that, trust me I absolutely butcher scottish village names 😂
I love exploring Wales, currently watching.
Indeed! I'm currently back in Snowdonia, doing more exploring... it seems I can't get enough of Wales either!
such an amazing amount of information in this video! Now I really wish we could get to Wales. Not likely to happen this year, but maybe by summer 2022.
omg - that sign! we would have had fun trying to say that, too. 🤣
Glad you enjoyed! It was one of my favourite road trips I've ever done so I thought I must make a video about it!
That sign must have been one of the oldest publicity stunts in the book🤣 ...but its still working well!
Did Snowdon in 2018 April when snow was deep! Amazing. Will never do again too old now!😂
Wow! I've never been up there in the snow, I imagine its pretty surreal!
They flooded a Welsh speaking village to make the Elme valley dam
Great video, we stayed at Newgale recently. Your editing in fantastic 👌
Thanks for watching and I'm glad you enjoyed the video! I can't get enough of the Pembrokeshire Coast, so much to see, I constantly want to go back!
Some great places on this vid!
I'm glad you enjoyed!
You need to go to harlech castle it has stunning views . There is also a castle in Criccieth that’s worth a visit . Wales is a stunning country but I guess being Welsh I am biased 😂 fab video so glad you enjoyed your road trip around god’s country
We did indeed visit Harlech Castle recently, but I'm yet to finish the video I filmed there. The views were incredible, and Criccieth is amazing as well. We visited Criccieth in this video here (right at the end): czcams.com/video/E0T1AjfRc4w/video.html
We love Wales too, always can't wait to go back!
Ty for replying ❤ glad you enjoyed visiting my country . Mid wales also a fab place to visit some stunning walks from beginner to the more professional 👍😀
Devils bridge has three bridges built on top of one another and you you can still see the bridges
that shirt is ...'MARVEL'ous
Great video! I have subscribed 🙌🙌
Thanks for the subscribe! I'm glad you enjoyed!
I live in North Wales, would love to go to Tenby it looks nice
It certainly is! Although North Wales will forever be my favourite place to hike around, I was actually just in Snowdonia & Anglesey last week, it never disappoints!
Try the Llyn peninsula,it's stunning great beaches.
Indeed! I was wishing we had more time when there because we stayed in Porthmadog for a couple of nights, so it was so close but we ran out of time!
St Davids is the smallest city in the UK, not smallest town ( because it has a cathedral)
I live in west wales llanelli 🏴🏴diolch yn fawr
Gower peninsula in Swansea you should definitely take a trip there and Brecon beacons national park is worth going to and Mumbles all so in Swansea they have two great ice cream parlours Joe's ice cream and Verdi's do lovely food there as well as ice cream at Verdi's
I'm hopefully heading to the Gower peninsula this summer! I went years ago and remember loving it (especially Worm's Head) so it'll be great to head back and film a video there! Thanks for the tips!
And Oystermouth castle you should definitely worth visiting
I second that! Gower is absolutely stunning so many beautiful beaches and lots of history
Love you video but just a correction, At.Davids is the smallest city, not town!x
Indeed it is!
Wonderful video. Did you stay on campsites? How was the parking ? Thank you in advance
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed! We stayed in only 2 different accommodations, one around Pembrokeshire and one in Snowdonia, we always look for cheaper deals so we found a caravan site called Pendine Sands and we stayed in a Travelodge in Porthmadog. Usually when trying to travel on a cheaper budget camping and AirB&B are what we use.
In regards to parking it was easy, I think being in Wales there was always parking available close to everywhere we visited and never had to pay more than £1-£2 for it. Hope that helps!
Thank you for your reply. We are going in two weeks time in our Motorhome.
You say it like this Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch 😅
what kind of vehicle did u go on..?
We went by car, I think driving would definitely be the best way, I'm not too sure how good public transport is on this route
St.David's is a city and not town
Making fun of the welsh language is despicable and smacks of the usual English hegemony
I live in wales in Swansea but not gonna lie wales is boring
looks amazing, nice one @Cumbusadventures
Glad you like it!
I'm puerto Rican and I found out I have Welsh in my lineage. Interesting to find out what Wales is like
Wales is a beautiful place! If you want to find out even more about Wales, feel free to check out my full wales playlist here: czcams.com/play/PLoliWvnVweHtF-Ijgx8nA4FoTj1B_nDAm.html
