This was a great overview for Cardiff with a scenic, easy walk. Eugene was an engaging speaker who had us laughing the whole way through.
I took the Free tour of Cardiff with Eugene which lasted a bit over 2 hours. We had a nice group that day due to a Rugby game that was happening that afternoon. The tour was well paced and very informative. Eugene was happy to answer any questions and did his best to keep us in dry areas on that rainy day.
Great walking tour in Cardiff! Eugene was an excellent guide — friendly, knowledgeable, and full of fun stories about the city. Learned a lot and really enjoyed the pace. Highly recommended!
I went on the regular Cardiff walking tour and the Cardiff Bay tour last month, both of which were led by Eugene. It was my first time to Wales and Cardiff (with minimal time to sightsee) and these tours provided the perfect amount of detail and background on the history of the city. Definitely check it out!
Our tour guide Eugene was amazing. He has been the best tour guide we have had yet. He was so knowledgeable of all the Dr Who episodes and showed us so many locations that we were in Wow every time. What I liked the most about him was that he engaged with my son by asking him direct questions like "what is your favorite episode" or "which Dr is your favorite". This helpped my son come out of his shell as he is very quiet and didn't know what to expect from the tour. My son is a big Dr. Who fan and that is why we went to Cardiff and booked this tour. My son is still talking about the tour weeks after coming back. We just bought the 13th Dr Who series with Jodie Whittaker and in the very 1st episode the police station that Eugene showed us was in it! My son yelled "That's the police station" before I could even take it in. Eugene really did his research and showed us more then we could even imagine. Thank you Eugene for being a great tour guide and now a friend. If you are thinking of booking this tour you should do it quick before it gets full.
Eugene was a fantastic tour guide! I really enjoyed his walking tour around Cardiff.
I really enjoyed this tour! Eugene follows the spirit of other free walking tours I've had elsewhere, keeping up the enthusiasm and tons of knowledge about the city. The paths taken are easy to follow with loads of information, not only historic but also current about the city, I took Cardiff and Swansea with him, most definitely recommend.
(We did the Free Cardiff City Walking Tour) Eugene's tour was very informative, interesting, and most of all fun. He combines history and culture in his tour as well as gives you an insight on how Cardiff (and Wales) has changed across the centuries. 5 stars! I would recommend to friends and family. If I find myself in Cardiff again I would sign up for the Doctor Who tour next!
Both me and my wife are big fans of free walking tours as the guide must be confident that customers will enjoy themselves enough to pay what they think the tour was worth. Eugene is an incredibly nice guy and has lots of historical knowledge about Cardiff. The tour we had lasted over 2 hours and was very interesting from beginning to end. We always like to start a city break with a walking tour as it sets us up for the next few days, giving more knowledge on places to visit and an an idea of where things are. We found the knowledge that Eugene gave us allowed us to plan our next few days, confident that we were making the best of our time in Cardiff. As someone who has a passion for history and is currently studying history at degree level, I definitely recommend that any stay in Cardiff starts with a tour by Eugene from Fogo's Free Tours
This is a great thing to do, really informative without being dry. Packed with information about Cardiff, relayed in a very relaxed and engaging way. The two hours went by very quickly, not arduous. Think our tour was a bit longer as was a large group, felt we were well looked after. Eugene has a very easy manner and knows his stuff. Really glad I booked this as a birthday surprise for my husband, part of a two night break in Cardiff, really made the trip. Would recommend this tour, really helps bring the city to life. I'm likely to return to Cardiff as its great for shopping, will also book a further tour with Fogo's.
