New Wales Explorer reviews.

Visit Wales - in your chair or for real
by GeraldMK on Dec 5, 2010 version 1.0

What a great travel experience without leaving my chair 5300+ km away (thanks to the location service). A handy guide, cleanly written with key info at your fingertips. Gluck's tight, approachable, and often clever style and editorial choices make this both entertaining and informative. His affection for Wales comes through and compels you to make a visit or at least dream of one. Ran nicely on my iPhone 4. His photo choices were even more exciting on my iPad.

superb app.

Reviews of Wales Explorer

These just in from the iTunes Apps pages:


This app is the perfect companion to anyone who wants to explore Wales (visitors and natives alike!) – it’s fun to use and full of good ideas, I would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone who is interested in learning more or wondering how to make the most of this beautiful place. If you’re considering visiting, this app gives you a good idea of what Wales has to offer too! I’ve tried some of the other Wales guide-type apps and this is by far the best. Great stuff ÷) swan-princess

Wales Explorer NOW AVAILABLE ON YOUR iPHONE & iPAD

Expat Canadian Jeremy’s Gluck’s outsider’s insider’s guide to Wales for the iPhone, 

out now!

Seasoned writer and voluntary exile to Wales Jeremy Gluck has just published his local insights and travel tips onto an iPhone application called Wales Explorer.  The guide includes well over one hundred suggestions for things to do in Wales, from free outdoor sightseeing to recommended tourist attractions.


After a chunk of a lifetime in Wales, Gluck is no stranger to his adopted country. Having travelled its coasts and core, his text brings a fresh perspective on local and regional highlights.  Gluck says about the new application:


“While I love an old fashioned book as much as the next guy, the reality is that Wales is changing all the time.  With Wales Explorer, visitors can get the latest tips and information in the palm of their hand, and updates can be shared far more quickly.  What’s not to like?”


Wales Explorer is only £1.19 / $1.99 – an inexpensive way to have your own personal tour guide to take with you in and around a country Gluck calls “Britain’s Beautiful Secret”.

About the Author:


Expat Canadian Jeremy’s Gluck’s lifelong love of Britain began even before he had ever been there, as a child enchanted with all things British, from Merseybeat to Monty Python. There in the flesh at last in 1977, he never really went home again. He made some fledgling trips to Wales, including as a musician in his band of yore, cult faves The Barracudas, who were recording at legendary Rockfield Studios in Monmouth. After many years in London as a writer and musician he sealed the deal by marrying a girl raised in Swansea, whence they repaired in 1994 to give their three kids a countryish life. Jeremy’s favorite place on the planet, 3 Cliffs Bay, on the sublime Gower Peninsula, is to him the perennial heart of Wales, an ancient and unique land also known as Avalon, but it is perhaps just the beginning of one inexhaustible in its beauty and deceptive simplicities.
