    Itinerary


    Monday

    Depart from your home area this morning and travel to Cheshire, arriving late afternoon at Grosvenor Pulford Hotel & Spa for dinner and a 4-night stay.

    Tuesday

    Feel the weight of an empire as you walk in the footsteps of Roman centurions through the ancient streets of Deva-now Chester, the fortress city founded by the Romans nearly 2,000 years ago. Clad in museum-quality armour, expert guides transport you back in time, revealing the daily lives of Roman soldiers through captivating stories and key sites, brought to life with the latest archaeological discoveries. Marvel at Britain's largest amphitheatre, once roaring with 8,000 spectators for thrilling gladiator contests.

    Wednesday

    Join Gareth Wyn Jones, the UK's most followed farmer, known for his appearances on the BBC and Jack Whitehall's Travels with My Father, at his 370-year-old family farm nestled in the foothills of the Carneddau Range. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Menai Straits and Anglesey, witness the skill and intelligence of working sheepdogs and, with a bit of luck, catch a glimpse of the rare and wild Carneddau Ponies.

    Thursday

    After breakfast, we begin our journey home.
