Very much enhanced our experience of Cardiff!

Published on Apr, 2024

Peter was extremely knowledgeable, entertaining and enthusiastic about this wonderful place, Penarth. We went on our extensive tour on our arrival to Wales and it helped us put perspective and plans in place for the rest of our exploration of Cardiff. He pointed out the history, development and amazing recent transformation of the city and its surroundings, and gave us some tips, which we wouldn’t have otherwise discovered as to other sights to see. Thoroughly recommend!

A lovely walk and historic tour of Penarth

Published on Oct, 2023

This walking tour was really nice. Peter was full of joy and was super engaging. We learned so much about Penarth and it’s history as we walked from The Old Custom House, around the bay, up through the neighborhoods, through parks and promenades and after a wonderful two hours we were pointed to the pubs to catch the Rugby game. We chose The Bear Head. Made for a lovely afternoon and would highly recommend this tour.

Hidden treasures of Penarth

Published on Aug, 2023

Peter’s knowledge of the local area and its history was engaging and fascinating ! There were so many places of interest that I otherwise wouldn’t have discovered. A very enjoyable walking tour, I thoroughly recommend .

More than worth it, 2 hours with a wise man

Published on May, 2023

This was an excellent way to spend 2 hours. Peter, the guide, gives a thoughtful walk through of the social geography of Penarth. His deep knowledge of the history of the region, indeed of Britain generally, means that he easily answers all sorts of questions - on architecture, on social structure, on historical politics, on culture: He loves and appreciates Penarth and this is very obvious. This is clearly a labour of love. I am so pleased that we did this- including my partner, who started off a bit skeptically, and ended wanting more. Thanks Peter.

Really enjoyable tour.

Published on Apr, 2023

Very enjoyable tour. Be aware that there are several hills on the walk but Peter will make allowances if necessary. There was no pressure to complete the tour within any specific time. We certainly saw and learned about parts of Penarth that most would never see. A very good tour and we would strongly reccommend it. Well done Peter!
