Some years ago my father was terminally ill and we took him on a final trip to his birth place in Wales. We visited the Elan Valley and my father walked for a while and said it was the most beautiful place he had seen in his life. When you spend time with someone so ill you start to see through their eyes. The colours were so vivid and it was a wonderful time for us. Later a work colleague had to make a business trip and asked me for directions. I deliberately directed him though the Elan Valley. When he returned he thanked me and said my father had been right. For years he had not visited Wales because he had thought it was just an industrial area and hadn't believed me when I had told him that it was possibly the most beautiful part of the UK. He had immediately booked a two week trip with his equally sceptical girlfriend to introduce her to Wales.

The industrial parts of Wales are dog rough, and some areas have deprivation so bad that historically they qualified for, and received, European Union financial aid. Thankfully these areas are very separate, and nothing unpleasant 'spills out' elsewhere. This is about 1% of what you would see, and can avoid quite easily. The other 99% is stunning. I think we downplay the beauty a bit, but we don't want to get too popular ;)

My sister is now living there again so I'm still a regular visitor. On my mum's side of the family we're related to Richard Hughes who was one of the contractors that built the Marine Drive. My dad's parents lived on the Great Orme and my grandpa used to work on the trams. My dad was an apprentice electrician at the Pier Pavilion Theatre (sadly it burnt down in the 90s) and was later a projectionist at the Savoy Cinema in Mostyn Street (where KFC is now). My mum was Rose Queen of Llandudno in 1950. The same year there was a train crash in nearby Penmaenmawr and my Taid (grandfather), a local policeman, was one of the first on the scene. He later received a commendation from the King.

Those sheep probably belonged to a farmer. It's not uncommon in many parts of the UK for sheep to roam the countryside (which is why it's important to leave gates as you find them, i.e. if it's shut before you go through it, then shut it again behind you). They usually have coloured markings, a bit like they've been shot with a paintball gun, that indicate whose sheep they are. Sometimes they have numbered ear tags as well which identify individual sheep.

Wales is so lovely as are the people, unfortunately for you guys you didn’t go to the right coast of Scotland that has a huge amount of lochs, mountains and some of the most stunning scenery in the world. You really missed out. I hope you got to enjoy beautiful Wales.

Llandudno has two stunning beaches on both sides of town. Driving round the orme, if you take binoculars march tomay you will see pods of dolphins and porpoise swimming. Lovely video, I long to go back soon.

So glad you liked Wales. It truly is a wonderous place, full of beautiful sights. When you mentioned Jellyfish my mind immediately went back to the time I was swimming in the sea and a Jellyfish went up the leg of my swim shorts and stung me at the top of the leg and my testicles. Ouch was very much NOT the word I said.

If you come again to Wales all the Welsh Coast is beautiful, South Wales has Sandier beaches but also beautiful scenery as has West Wales, Tenby is a must for a beautiful seaside town. The United Kingdom is one larger island and 100s od small ones so nowhere in UK are you further than 100 to 150 miles from the sea. Thank you I have loved watching your adventures. Dioch (the Welsh word for thank you)

Cotton in the Elms is the furthest point at 70 miles apparently

Love driving down to Wales. I really recommend you guys checking out Harlech castle. It's beautiful, and if you're not used to seeing castles around, it's definitely a must visit.

If you ever get to go back to Wales, visit Pembrokeshire. Specifically, Tenby. On a summers day it's like being in the tropics. The water is so blue and clear. It's the most beautiful place I've ever seen.

I'm from Wales. It's great to see you enjoying the scenery here. I look forward to seeing your video of Snowdonia :)

Wales is my ancestral home, I visit every year I am so glad you enjoyed it.

I made a comment recommending the area, but maybe you didn't see it. The town of Conwy, quite close to Llandudno, has won many tourism awards. If you visit again, it's well worth a look.

Good Visits. Bodnant Gardens - Drive up the Conway valley from Conway. Also Port Meirion - an Italianate village on the coast. Also the slate mines up in the mountains. There is the worlds fastest ziplane up there as well. Or the Snowdon Mountain railway.

You did really well driving yourselves 👍 I live on the coast I think walking along the piers and being near/seeing the sea is very calming - a good start to the day 💙 At least you can do a voice over when the sound is lost - better than losing vision 👍

As an Englishman I’ve got to say I Love Wales ❤. Get over as often as I can. Just slowly driving the coast roads. A stopping wherever something grabs attention. Did you spot any Dolphins?

Wales is incomparable, and Llandudno is excellent. Glad you enjoyed it.

After a trip to Ireland where I was born. I got off the Ferry at Holyhead and was told we wouldn't be able to get back to London by train that night. I went for a run the next morning and fell in love with the place. I have been trying to move there ever since. Absolutely love Wales.❤

The Great Orme is one of my favourite places. We spent a long weekend in LLandudno earlier this year - I have a photograph of the goats roaming the streets!

I love north Wales, beaches, castles and snowdoina and beautiful scenery all around 🙂

@@handsolo1209 depends were you go caernarfon Bethesda is Welsh spoken the old school Welsh and few other towns Rhyl Prestatyn has adapted mix of accentts lot of English decent but if you go further back in ww2 when the bombings happened a lot of sgousers came to North Wales to be safe so some might have sgouse decent lot of big city's did this in the war same as London etc

We lived in Llandudno for around 10yrs, have lived along the coast there for much longer than that. North Wales is beautiful especially the coast line. We live in a small village, still in North Wales, but in the Snowdonia area now, it's as pretty inland as coastal. It has probably been said in the comments, but the hard foundations on the great orme were where gun emplacements were in ww2, there was a military barracks around the other side as you leave marine drive, just foundations now, but was quite an important place for trialing different wartime things out on the sea etc there. Was the 'Rest & Be Thankful' cafe open on the top ? we knew the owners some time back, probably in new hands now. Lovely place to just relax have a pot of tea, teacake or whatever. Lost count of the times we went around the orme, you can get a year pass, doesn't cost that much, also in winter you can just drive around no charge. It is a lovely place, but there are hundreds of places like that in North Wales, many are much more beautiful, its a land of beauty.

Wales is so beautiful. I love the Pembrokeshire coast and Sandersfoot has the most beautiful beach. Lots of gorgeous spots actually and lovely people on the whole.

Wonderful place. I used go go there often as a youngster with my grandad . Wales is lovely , we often drove there from Manchester✨

The reason for the long piers around Britain is that before the advent of the motor car all transport on land was by horse or horse-drawn carriage. It was often quicker to go round the coast by boat but the size of boat meant a harbour or something where the boat could moor in deeper water .So piers stretching out to sea were built ,the passengers would alight then walk along the pier to the land. Of course ,once there were cars the piers became obsolete for that purpose and became a local tourist attraction ,with games ,rides and sometimes a small theatre at the sea end .

Thank you so much for that information on piers. Often wondered about their use.✌️

During the Covid lockdown the goats decided that foraging in people's gardens and window-boxes in Llandudno was much more fun than grazing the windy Great Orme. And in days gone by, you could have caught a day-trip steamer to the Isle of Man from that pier.

I've enjoye all your videos, particularly the UK trip, but this is the one where you are clearly having the most fun :-)

Hi Guys, really enjoyed that, as I said before next time in Wales come further south, check out a video called "TENBY Wales | FULL TOUR from beach to town, castle and harbour!" on KZread. It is our fave place to go to. Its only 45 mins from our home but we stay there maybe 4 times a year, its so magical.

Love Wales. Such a beautiful place. Thanks for the video, makes me want to plan my next trip there! 😍

It's years since I was last in Llandudno but absolutely adored the place. Great base for walks, beach and general chilling but also places to go if it's wet.

Random point, but I like how he's wearing a City of Chicago hoodie while the band Chicago is playing in the background at 4:00.

"I was really tempted a look over the cliff, but I really dont wanna die" - complete agreement, I always think I'm gonna go right to the edge, then the danger of plunging down onto rocks brings me back to my sense!!! You did good, braver than me

North Wales/Snowdonia in my favourite place in the UK. I'm glad you chose to visit! So green and pretty, and has a magical feel when the weather is good.

The piece of metal you found under the pier is called a rowlock, pronounced "rollock" for some obcure reason as the spelling makes sense as it slots in a hole on the side of a rowing boat and holds the oar steady when rowing. I suspect the concrete platform on Great Orme may have been a gun platform from the second world war as the Irish sea was the entry to the Mersey and Liverpool where the Atlantic Convoys went into. Great place, close to our home, Wales is stunning.

Wales is a beautiful part of the world, my home for 10 years. Llandudno and Conwy are great and seeing you running around like a couple of kids was good to see. I'd always recommend a holiday in Wales - but you need to get in that sea.

Great video. I’ve visited the states a number of times and loved it. I’m glad you enjoyed Wales. We’ve lots of lovely places to visit 👍♥️

I live 10 mins away from Llanudno and I run around Marine Drive on a regular basis. It's great to see you guys enjoying this wonderful area of the world.

If you want beaches them think about visiting Australia. There are thousands of them with pure sand and the Great Ocean Road in the state of Victoria is spectacular. I have visited Wales, the land of my ancestors, and plan to visit again soon, and meet more of my cousins there. I love the Welsh countryside and love meeting and hearing the Welsh people with their sing-song, beautiful Welsh language. They are the true Britons.

I would have loved to meet you in Llandudno but wasn't there at that time, its where my mom lives. That road leads to the west shore which has a sand beach. My mom and dad nearly bought a house there until he looked in the loft and it was full of sand, it needs cleaning out every couple of years. Also if you say you're going to the cemetery you don't have to pay the toll on that road. Glad you enjoyed Llandudno, it's a great place.

Thanks guys for reminding me just how beautiful our country is. I am probably a two hour drive away from North Wales and rarely think about going for a day trip. It is beautiful, but as others have said the west coast of Scotland near Oban is my favourite place, but Cornwall and South Wales in Pembrokeshire is also fantastic.

Looks like you had fun there. It is a beautiful area. You were only about 5 miles from Conwy there so hope you managed to have a look there on your way to Snowdonia. It's an ancient walled town with in my opinion one of the best castles in Wales.

Aw pity you didn’t head down south as well . I live in Pembrokeshire down in south west Wales. Also a very beautiful part of Wales x

I'm so glad you came to Wales and got to see a piece of my beautiful country

Was lovely to see your sheer joy at the wonderful views of Wales, I live in England but Wales is my favourite place and I spend as much time as I am able in that beautiful place, you have so many more joys to experience yet you're only just beginning, can't wait to see your next adventure through Wale's

It looks beautiful You two are crazy if you see something you need to climb up it or down it 😄 good job on the video

I'm glad you stopped a lot on your drive! The hardest bit about driving in Wales is being distracted by how beautiful it is!!

I'm from Swansea, South Wales, Mumbles actually. About 14 miles from where I live is a village by the sea called Rhossili. It has one of the most beautiful beaches in Wales and has consistently been voted one of the best in the world. The view from the cliffs is stunning! One of my favourite places! And Mumbles itself is pretty special too with its old Victorian pier!
