Day 1: Early morning departure from North Wales and travel to Cardiff for late morning arrival. After checking in to our hotel, the rest of the day is free to explore the vibrant capital city of Wales. Visit the many museums, indulge in some retail therapy or visit Cardiff Castle, where you can discover 200 years of history in the heart of the city.
Day 2: A Free day for shopping. Cardiff is a fresh, 21st century shopping experience featuring many of the high street’s most popular names across a spacious 1.4million square feet including Cardiff's shopping centres, markets and high street stores. Big brand shops in Cardiff include the Apple Store, as well as fashion retailers like Hollister, All Saints, Jo Malone and Calvin Klein. Cardiff is also home to many Victorian arcades offering an intimate environment for shoppers who enjoy an alternative to the well-trodden path of the high street.
The open-air Cardiff Christmas Market is right in the heart of the city centre – rows of beach cabins displaying a huge range of Welsh arts and crafts.
If you want to relax after a hard day’s retail therapy, settle yourself in one of the many eating and drinking places overlooking Cardiff Bay.
Day 3: After breakfast there is time in Cardiff for some last-minute shopping or sightseeing before the coach departs 2pm for the return journey home.
