Adventure Like Alice Press Trips - Summer 2013

Destination Conwy

We would love the chance to welcome you on a wonderful press trip opportunity this summer to Llandudno where you could join the Alice trail.

The traditional Victorian seaside town of Llandudno is nestled between the two headlands of the Great Orme and Little Orme, providing a serene backdrop.

The area is famed for being the holiday destination of Alice Liddell and her family - the inspiration for Lewis Carroll's character. We'd love for you to re-trace Alice's steps and experience the full glory of what Llandudno has to offer this summer.

Our specially bespoke press trips can be tailored for you and your readers, ensuring you visit all the key places in a timescale to suit your schedule.

So, why not make like Alice and....

  • Find out about Llandudno's literary heritage on the Alice in Wonderland Trail - a series of striking sculptures dotted around the town, with new additions for 2013
  • Plus, try the all-new 90 minute Down The Rabbit Hole Walking Tour with interactive performances from a whole host of your favourite Alice in Wonderland characters
  • Take a stroll down Llandudno's 700m pier - the longest in Wales. With a range of amusements the pier makes for a great nostalgic visit
  • For culture vultures, pay a visit to MOSTYN Gallery. An exciting space with a range of modern and compelling exhibitions
