A Winter’s Day Out with Vintage Land Rover Tours
Saturday morning arrived early. The kind of early that is exciting when you know an adventure is waiting! We set off from rural Leicestershire at a time when the roads are empty, heading west and gradually leaving the familiar urban tracks of England behind as the landscape begins to open up to glorious Wales. I will never get old of that feeling of leaving England behind heading over the border into peace and tranquility. Today was about stepping back in time, and spending a full day immersed in the Welsh countryside with Vintage Land Rover Tours.

The best two weeks…
From one breathtaking location to the next, we shared something much deeper than just a journey. The group bonded beautifully. There was a real sense of joy and togetherness, friendships were made, stories shared, and memories created.
And for us? It felt like we’d hit the jackpot. All those months of planning and preparation were paying off. Even as tour guides, though we’ve done this before, we want to enjoy every moment just as much as our guests do. And we did, thanks entirely to them. It was the perfect blend of camaraderie, adventure, and jaw-dropping landscapes.
