Our family of four had one of the best experiences we've had traveling around Ireland thanks to Henry. We booked Henry for 3 days and each day he gave us a comprehensive and highly enjoyable guide around different regions of Donegal. Henry is funny and extremely knowledgeable and we had such a wonderful time touring the county. We traveled in comfort and got to see views and visit places which simply are not accessible with large coaches or difficult on your own .Simply put, if you want to see Donegal, leave the car at the hotel and get in contact with Henry. Cannot recommend Henry's private tours highly enough.

Being a university student studying the Troubles, I was blown away by the knowledge and experience of Ruari. He answered every question with extreme detail and used his own experiences to illustrate the climate and history of Northern Ireland. He treated much of the tour as a conversation that was extremely enjoyable and informative. We encountered several logistical issues due to unforeseen circumstances but Ruari handled them with remarkable flexibility and patience. I was blown away by the trip and every part of the tour exceeded my expectations.

Had a great day out today with Phil, who took us into the SE corner of Northern Ireland. Starting at Newcastle and walking up Slieve Donard off the beaten track. It’s 850 metres and a good hike, the weather was a bit damp, but Phil’s experience, guidance and knowledge is the very best. We also visited St Patrick’s grave and Fin McCool’s girlfriend burial chamber. A brilliant day.
