* A traveler said: "We went on the tour Sunday, February 16, 2020. It was during Storm Dennis, wouldn’t you know it. Tony arrived on time, with his car and umbrellas!! It is a walking tour, but with the down pour of the storm, he brought his car to lessen the impact. We had a fantastic time!! Despite the rain and wind, we walked around the city, and the bay, learning about the history of Cardiff and seeing notable architecture and museums. He went above and beyond our expectations. We had tea and light refreshments and he took a lot of pictures of us. Very personable. He absolutely loves his city and it shows. Please ask for Tony, you won’t regret it."

Follow the forgotten but, in places, ancient pathways which lie behind Llandaff Cathedral on this self-guided audio tour. Isolated, atmospheric, and away from modern urban Cardiff, they are filled with mystery, atmosphere, legend and ghost stories. In places, these paths were ancient Celtic trade routes or medieval roadways.
They are filled with strange and sometimes spine chilling tales of ghosts and phantoms, still being witnessed and reported in modern times. In places, the atmosphere can become strange, overwhelming, even sinister, especially in the dark seclusion of the night!
This tour follows a circular route taking you along a mysterious and atmospheric wooded lane, the scene of many ghostly experiences, before following the riverbank where more ghostly encounters and legends are told. The route turns back towards the Cathedral for more tales, and culminates in the old abandoned and overgrown woodland graveyard, with its intense atmosphere and ghostly tales.
