Visit to the Wye Valley and Forest of Dean

The beautiful Wye Valley is Border Country, fought over for centuries by the English and the Welsh. The Forest of Dean is full of myth, legend and tradition. We visit historic Monmouth in the heart of the Wye Valley, the birthplace of Henry V. Monmouth’s beautiful ancient fortified stone bridge was hopeless as a defence since enemies need only roll up their trouser legs and wade across the river! In the afternoon, the beauty of the Wye Valley will be appreciated from an attractive all-weather barge.
