Brilliant G&S tour around Barry!! - We drove 3.5 hrs from Northamptonshire UK for this tour, was well worth the journey as from start to finish we had a great time, stopped at some great locations and there was plenty of time to take pics in iconic places linked to the show. The guide and driver were great, funny and just made it even more enjoyable. We highly recommend this trip! We will definitely return to Barry Island again to do some more exploring as it’s a very beautiful place with stunning beaches and surrounding countryside. Out only regret is we didn’t book a couple more nights here, but a great excuse to return! 🙂

So much fun! - We had a blast!! This tour was so much fun and the guide Carrie was amazing and so knowledgeable. She really made the day. Being on the original bus from the show was great and seeing the locations from the show and all the behind the scenes info made it all come to life. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this tour. Getting to go into ‘Gwen’s’ House and meet Glenda was the icing on the cake. Thanks very much.

A fantastic tour - What a fun tour. Didn't know what to expect but thoroughly enjoyed the experience. A three hour trip with Daves Coaches struggling up the steep Barry hills to visit several filming locations from the series. The highlight for us was touring Stacy's house. The owner Glenda ( I hope I've got that right) was so welcoming. The guide Carrie from Barry very friendly and knowledgeable. If you're a Gavin and Stacy fan this tour is a must.

Great tour even if a little rainy - Bought my wife this tour as a Christmas gift and it didn't disappoint. Both Dave the driver and "Carrie from Barry" the compare were fantastic. Kept us entertained the whole way and seeing the sights of the show was so much fun. Meeting Glenda who still lives in Stacey's house was the best part of the day. Such a welcoming individual who relishes in seeing the tourists like us.

Absolutely lush!!! - We booked the trip for a birthday treat for our 10year old daughter who absolutely loves the show. And what can I say! It didn’t disappoint us! It was fantastic, so much information, so many pictures to be taken! Fabulous locations! Being taken around on the original Dave’s coaches was just lush! Carrie from Barrie was fantastic at her job! Loved the quiz and the song along as well! My daughter absolutely LOVED it! Anyone who wants to go just do it! It’s worth it!! And to top it off we had a wonderful afternoon on battery island with the sun shining and chippy for dinner what more could you ask for!
