About Tulip Private Travel

The people who show you the real Wales

A small, personal team with a deep love of Wales — and a simple belief that the best way to see it is privately, unhurried and with a local by your side.

Our Story

Born from a love of the Welsh landscape

Tulip Private Travel began with a feeling shared by everyone who has ever stood on a Welsh mountainside at golden hour — that this country is too beautiful to rush.

We watched visitors arrive with only a few days, packed onto crowded coaches, glimpsing Wales through a window and leaving before they'd really seen it. We knew there was a better way.

So we built something different: private, guided journeys through South Wales, planned around you. No fixed schedules, no queues, no strangers on board — just spectacular scenery, medieval castles, dramatic waterfalls and quiet villages, explored at a pace that lets each moment breathe.

Today we welcome travellers from across the world, and treat every one of them like a guest, not a customer.

What We Believe

The values behind every journey

These aren't marketing lines — they're the promises we keep on every single tour.

Private & personal

Your tour is yours alone. It's shaped around your interests, your pace and the things you most want to see.

A relaxed pace

No rushing, no early-morning stress. We linger at the views that matter and let the day unfold gently.

Genuine local knowledge

Our guides know the roads, the stories and the hidden corners the guidebooks and coaches never reach.

Authentic experiences

Real Wales — its landscapes, castles, heritage and market towns — beyond the crowds and the tourist trail.

Flexible by nature

Change your mind on the day and we'll happily adapt — to the weather, your energy or a spontaneous detour.

Personal service throughout

Warm, attentive care from your very first enquiry to your final wave goodbye. You're a guest, always.
