SATURDAY
We depart London at 07:00 and make our way out to Wales. Our first excursion is to the border town of Chepstow. Here you can visit the impressive castle that has guarded the Welsh border for centuries. Then we make our way to Cardiff, the capital of Wales, where you will have time to visit the major sights and attractions. Whilst in Cardiff you can visit the Castle on a guided tour and explore the local shops. Another great attraction is the Millennium Stadium, enjoy a guided tour that will take you behind the scenes of this state of the art stadium.

Late afternoon we make our way to the hotel with time to relax and enjoy a swim before sitting down to a three-course dinner. After dinner you can relax and enjoy a drink at the hotel bar or venture out for the evening.

SUNDAY
We travel inland via the Brecon Beacon region to the village of Hay on Wye famous for the number of bookshops. Here you will have time to relax, enjoy lunch and explore the village shops.

Early afternoon we will make our way to the riding stables where you will be introduced to your guide and horse. You will be split into groups, issued with a riding hat and given basic instructions before setting off into the Black Mountains on your trek. The riding is suitable for people who have no or little experience as you are under supervision at all times.
