Visa

U.S. citizens don’t need a visa to visit Wales for tourism, but you do need a UK Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) before you travel.

💱

Money

Wales uses the British Pound Sterling (GBP, £), the same currency as the rest of the United Kingdom.

Best time to go

Late spring and early autumn are our sweet spots, with daffodils and lambs in spring and golden valleys in October.

Cards & cash

Cards and contactless payments work in most hotels, restaurants and shops, especially in Cardiff and Swansea.
