This relaxing continuous sightseeing journey that follows a carefully planned circular route around the headland.
Departing from Llandudno Pier, the bus climbs steadily along the limestone slopes of the Great Orme, revealing impressive views across the coastline and the Irish Sea. As the bus winds higher, you’ll gain a new perspective on Llandudno’s Victorian promenade and surrounding countryside.
Attractions you’ll see along the journey are:

- Great Orme Country Park: a protected landscape known for rare wildlife, limestone cliffs, and open grazing land.
- Marine Drive: a spectacular coastal road wrapping around the headland with uninterrupted sea views.
Throughout the journey, the open-top design allows you to fully appreciate the changing scenery as the route moves between sheltered slopes and exposed coastal viewpoints.
