Additional Information

In this 2-hour excursion of Cardiff Bay’s cultural and historical aspects, we will explore deeper into the political and industrial roots of Cardiff, uncovering legends and observing age-old and modern iconic buildings.

Cardiff Bay was formerly one of the world’s most significant docks, central to the global coal trade by the early. This turned Cardiff, a small town, into the Welsh capital.

Its past prominence as an important dockland has left a rich legacy of industrialisation, immigration & diversity.

At present, it ranks as Europe’s largest waterfront development initiative, and functions as the hub for culture, entertainment, and politics in Cardiff, yet preserving numerous references to its tougher and occasionally illustrious history as Tiger Bay.

Location
Millennium Centre
We meet outside the main entrance of the Wales Millennium Centre in Cardiff Bay, underneath the giant letters that dominate the facade of the iconic building. The guide will be carrying a green umbrella.

Best guide ever! - Eugene was a fabulous guide. He took us for a 2.5hr tour in Cardiff and we enjoyed every minute. It was super variete and every single one of us learned so much. Buildings, history, rugby, food, language, people: he talked about it all. At the end, we took his restaurant recommendation: again: excellent. Must do. And take a big tip. So week deserved.
