Explore the sites where protests have brought the city to life and driven change. Johnny will guide you to the iconic locations where both global and local causes have been championed.
Central to this tour is the dynamic relationship between these tensions – Cardiff, as the capital of a small working-class nation, striving to make its mark on the world stage.
Johnny will take you through various forms of protest, visiting monuments dedicated to changemakers who have shaped Wales, from Dic Penderyn to Betty Campbell.
Tour Highlights
- Beginning at the Betty Campbell monument, this tour will lead you into the vibrant heart of Womanby Street, unraveling how the Romans, Vikings, the Butes, and Pirates have all left their imprint on the city.
- You’ll hear firsthand accounts of protests, from the Occupy movement outside Cardiff Castle to efforts to save local music venues.
- The tour concludes at the statue of Aneurin Bevan, founder of the NHS and advocate for social housing.
- This monument has been a rallying point for protests in Cardiff for decades and will leave you contemplating what changes you would make if given the chance.

This can vary from tour to tour, but Invisible Cities prefer to have tours starting with three customers. The maximum capacity is usually 20 or 25.
Is your group bigger? Don’t panic. They can accommodate any size, if you have more than 25 people they will simply split your group between several guides at no added cost to you!
The tours delivered by Invisible Cities take you on a unique route, but most of them are wheel-chair accessible.
They can also adapt their tours to your group and guests, so everyone can enjoy them!
