Four days of castles, caves, zip wires and one very high canoe. Here's everything we're going to do.
We pick you up in the morning and drive to the seaside town of Llandudno. It takes a couple of hours, so we're stopping on the way. Here are the two stops.

We stay two nights in a seaside town with a long promenade, a proper Victorian pier sticking out into the sea, and a beach right there.
First evening: chips on the seafront and a walk out along the pier.
A whole free day, and you two get to pick what we do. Read all three, then tap the one you want.
We cross the bridge onto the island of Anglesey for the day.
Morning in the woods, afternoon throwing yourselves around indoors.
No long drive at all — everything is right where we're staying.
Tell Costas and Ben what you picked!
No problem. The copper mines are underground and the ninja centre is indoors, so both of those work perfectly in the rain. We'll decide on the morning.
The big one. We drive up into the mountains to an old slate mine that's been turned into the best adventure place in Wales, and we stay the night right next to it.
Giant trampoline nets strung across a huge cave, deep underground. Three levels joined together by tube slides, all lit up in different colours. You bounce from one level down to the next.
Four zip wires running side by side across an enormous quarry — so all four of us go at the exact same time and can shout at each other the whole way down.
You ride down into the mountain and walk through the tunnels where people actually mined slate 150 years ago, by candlelight.
Crazy golf, except it's in a cave.
A hotel called Plas Weunydd that's a five-minute walk from the zip wires. It used to be the house of the family who owned the whole mine. No driving anywhere after a long day — we just walk to dinner and fall over.
There are also glamping tents with real beds, hot showers and a fire pit outside, if you'd rather sleep in canvas.
There's a waterfall walk about half an hour away on foot, and a dam up in the hills with a huge view back down the valley.
Not under it. Across it, in the water, 38 metres up in the air. That's about as high as twelve houses stacked on top of each other.
It's called the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct — a canal carried on giant stone pillars right over a whole valley, with a river down below. It was built over 200 years ago and it's so special it's on the same world-famous list as the Pyramids.
The water itself is completely flat and calm, and an instructor comes in the boats with us. On one side there's a railing. On the other side there's… nothing. Just the drop.
We have lunch in Llangollen, the little town next to the aqueduct, and then drive you back home in the afternoon.
You'll be knackered. Worth it.
