You are bidding on a 1 week air-inclusive vacation to mystical WALES! 6 nights including a night in a castle.

As the signs say, "Croeso i Cymru" , welcome to Wales. Wales is known not only as former home to Richard Burton, Catherine Zeta Jones, Laura Ashley and Tom Jones, but it has inspired the poet Dylan Thomas and other literary figures. Wales has over 400 castles, magnificent gardens, and its own Prince. It's known for its all-male choirs, unpronounceable town names, like Llanfairpwyllgwyngyll, and spectacular Snowdonia National Park.

Wales has its own languages, an ancient form of Celtic, narrow-gauge steam railways that puff contentedly through glorious scenery, and more castles per square mile than anywhere else in Europe. Today these mighty fortresses are some of Wales's greatest treasures. Another popular attraction is the "Great LIttle Steam Trains of Wales".. Explore it all with our self drive car and B&B vouchers. And at journey's and there is bound o be a steaming cuppa to be enjoyed with bara brith, a scrumptious currant bread.

• Round trip airfare New York/Manchester .
• Self drive AVIS/ALAMO car with tax and unlimited mileage for 6 days.

• Full breakfast daily. This can include farm fresh eggs, home baked breads, juices, tea and coffee.

Your accommodations include: RUTHIN CASTLE With many of its black and white half-timbered buildings huddled around the market square, Ruthin still has something of a medieval flair. Ruthin Castle was built in 1150, and contains a dungeon, a drowning pool, whipping pit, and it is said a ghost known as the Grey Lady. Not to worry though. The Castle also contains lovely bedrooms and boasts superb cuisine. You may choose to relax and enjoy a medieval feast of your ancestors - a world of gallant knights, gracious ladies, feasting and merriment in the candelit setting reminiscent of days gone by. Enjoy period singing and good humor all in traditional costume while dining on succulent food, wine and mead.
