Wales
Travelling around Wales pupils can also experience the differences
in dialects, and variations of the Welsh language, from the South
to Mid and North Wales or across to the West, where Welsh is
predominantly the first language spoken. Our Tours of Wales allow
students to develop an interest and understanding of Welsh history
and culture,
with the option to stay in North and West Wales.
France
France wouldn’t be the first choice to learn about the Welsh
language, however you’ll be surprised what we can learn from our
Gaelic counterparts. The region of Brittany has close links to Wales
and our “Celtic Connection Tours” are based on the west coast,
and include visits to villages where Welsh is actually still spoken.
Join us at Disneyland Resort Paris, where every year the magic of
Wales comes to life at the St David’s Welsh Festival for which we
are the only official tour operator.
