Paid in full pre-Covid, trip cancelled by the company as was July 2020 at the height of the restrictions. I have requested a refund on numerous occasions with the same standard email response. Some rubbish about refund machine being in the office that they can’t access. I’m puzzled as they appear to be able to access the machine to take your money. Even now they are selling tours with thousands of customers waiting for refunds. I suspect bankruptcy is not far off and would like to warn everyone do not give this company any of your money, just flush it down the toilet instead!!!!

I did the Ring of Kerry with them. It was great because we have seen so many beautiful places although the weather wasn't very suitable, to put it mildly. We had lunch in Waterville, the place which Charlie Chaplin chose for his holidays over 10 years. The sea was rough but you don't expect hot sunny days in Ireland in November. You can just walk along the beach, gazing how waves roll over and remember Dylan Thomas's poem which is so true ... 'Especially when the October wind with frosty fingers punishes my hair... ' the only exception is that it was November. Afterwards, there were some breath-taking scenery, but it's impossible to describe nature. You should go and see. One more thing, the guide is very helpful. Told us a lot about the life in Ireland and the places which we visited. Ireland! I'm missing you so much!

My friend and I had Mary's services for three lovely, adventurous days. She was incredibly accommodating, kind, informative, and utterly professional. Also fun! She made special arrangements to get us to meet relatives in a remote village and see a family-relevant sight off the beaten track, as well as complete Dingle Peninsula and Cliffs of Mohrer tours. She expertly navigated EXTREMELY narrow country roads, causing us to mention numerous times how glad we were to not be driving ourselves! Can't recommend her highly enough.

10. Angela's Ashes 1.5hrs Walking Tour

Roden Street, Roden St, Limerick, Ireland Limerick City Walking Tour

This is a wonderful insight in the Limerick writer Frank McCourt. Told by a local historian Beano, who grew up on the same street as Frank you can't get any closer to the story. There will be a chance to question your specialist guide Beano as you travel & at the end of the tour. This is ideal for those interested in literature, academic & those wishing to learn more about the unique Limerick spirit!

Inclusions: Escorted Guide

Myself and my 2 sisters were in Limerick for the weekend. Our guide, a local enthusiastic historian, stepped in at the last minute to give our tour. He was very knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. The tour was 2.5 hours and covered a wide area, but all around the city centre. Perfect for giving us our bearings around the city. Would definitely recommend this tour.
