Excellent Tour with Zach, Tadgh and Loki (the furry friend doggie)

I brought a group of 26 guests from Luxembourg to Howth last Sunday to do a private with Zach, Tadgh and Loki the dog. The tour was great fun and really interesting. Everyone enjoyed it and the views were spectacular. Zach is full of knowledge but very personable. His fur baby - Loki the dog - is adorable too. He is such an amazing dog and helped lead us all along the cliff path. We also had Tadgh following behind to keep us all together and safe. The tour is such a nice way to get out in the air, smell the ocean and have lots of fun with the guys. I highly recommend it. Well done folks.

Beautiful Tours with Local Insight and Personal Attention

We had an amazing private tour with Sean and Ellie. Booking was easy and communication for meetup was clear. They went above and beyond by making accomodations for a few members of our party who anticipated needing to cut out early. The hike was midly challenging at times (some elevation to tackle and a few narrow/rocky paths) but was totally comfortable for our relatively athletic group. Sean was a fantastic guide and shared so much information about local history, wildlife, plants, and current local events. It's clear he knows the area well and even volunteers to maintain local trails. He took the time to connect with every member of our tour, learn a little about them, and chat about their specific interests along the way (everything from travelling in Southeast Asia to maritime disasters). Our group quickly named this one of their favorite parts of our Dublin trip. We received beautiful group photos and a map of our route after the hike. All around it was a wonderful expereince and I would not hesitate to recommend or book again.

Howth hike

We thoroughly enjoyed our hike with Sean. The conversation was lively and we learned so much about Howth and Irish history. The hike was moderate and the scenery was beautiful! I would highly recommend this tour.

Magical place with thee best tour guide x

What a gem of a place. Sean our tour guide absolutely captivated us with the folklore and the history or Howth. The scenery is breathtaking. We have fallen in love with the place. I'm so glad we took a tour rather than just headed out on our own. The knowledge and information about Howth and the surrounding areas made the experience next level. Will definitely be back x

Highlight of our Dublin trip

We had an excellent experience hiking with Zack (and dog Loki !) as our guide(s). The sights and history and hill and woods walking were great!
