Come and see what’s occurring in Barry Island on the Official Gavin and Stacey Tour. The tour which has been approved by co-creator Ruth Jones and the Vale of Glamorgan council is the best way to see the sites which are located around Barry and the surrounding areas.

The Gavin and Stacey Tour has received great reviews on Trip Advisor, is a tour like no other and is a tidy choice for fans of the show. Led by one of our fantastic guides you will get to hear stories about the making of the show, the actors that play the roles and discover why this corner of Wales is known as ‘Barrybados’.

The 3 hour tour visits many of the key locations from the TV show from the show on board Dave’s coach where you can get behind-the-scenes facts from the show, sing along to the music from classic scenes and have a great time with other fans of the show.

The tour includes sites seen in the Christmas 2019 special plus you get a chance to visit the street that Stacey lives in, the arcade (and tattoo parlour) where Nessa works and the church where she nearly gets married to Dave, plus much more.

This mini coach tour is also a great way to see the Island and its neighbouring areas, as our guide shows you the sites from the hugely popular TV show.

You’ll have plenty of opportunities to stop, take pictures and see the locations up-close.  The tour will end at Barry Island seafront.
