Description
We spent two weeks road tripping through Wales with our family and it completely blew us away. In Part 1, we travel from Cardiff all the way up to North Wales, covering the best family-friendly things to do, where to eat, where to stay, and hidden gems you won't want to miss... including very unique acomodations and the fastest zip line in the world! Whether you're planning a 1 week or 2 week Wales road trip, this video is your visual itinerary.
Is Wales good for families? Absolutely. This highly underrated corner of the UK has castles, coal mines, mountain railways, world-class zip lines, unique glamping, and some of the most stunning landscapes in Europe, all within easy driving distance of each other. We hope this video helps your family plan the perfect Wales trip.
