Who We Are
The Legendary Welsh Adventure Co. is an independently owned and operated company with our head office located in Pembrokeshire, the heart of Wales. We specialize in providing adults only adventure tours to a dynamic target market in several inspiring locations throughout Wales. Whether individual traveler, couple, group, or corporate team, our clients may have differing levels of ability and aspiration, but share an equal love of adventure and the outdoors.
True travelers and adventure enthusiasts at heart, we have a reputation for being passionate about what we do. Our intimate size gives us the opportunity to be personally involved and flexible with the tours from planning to execution. This ensures LWAC manages our guides, accommodation, food, cultural experiences and adventure activities to a highly professional standard.
We whole-heartedly believe that a truly fulfilling vacation is more than returning home with some 3x5's and a keychain. Breathe the air from the top of the highest mountain in Wales; taste the salty water of the Atlantic Ocean; feel the history and culture from past to present; listen to Wales tell its own story. Experience the beauty of where you're visiting. Push yourself to the limit. Live. Reset. Regenerate.
We may be small, but we have big dreams. Real Adventure. Real Memories.
