I can only do a day trip for the Final so i gotta pick a company to go with?

Who comes recommended from the following choices?

Joe Walsh
Killester
Marathon
Abbey Travel

There all more or less the same price. Which one might have the better tickets?

Over the phone..... The rest of them need to sharpen their pencils, that €30 will buy one hell of a greasy fry up in the airport on the way out.

Be prepared. Roads are not that bad through Wales, (fantastic biker roads

). The A470 will take you from Llandudno to Cardiff. Although single carriageway they are wide and some pretty long straight sections, and in the early morning they will be quiet. 4 hours should see you through.
