I can’t say enough about...

I can’t say enough about how wonderful the tour guide was! I had shoulder surgery a month before the trip and realized I wasn’t able to bike yet. However, my adult children still wanted to. The tour owner came up with a great alternative for me that included him going out of his way to accommodate! He helped me understand the bus system to get to him from Limerick and answered all of my many questions with kindness! The boat ride to Holy Island was absolutely amazing! We felt like we had the island to ourselves (and the other 6 people who went with us on the boat) and the sheep. My kids do think it’s worth mentioning that the bike trip did not include stopping to discuss what they were passing-it was simply a ride through the Irish beauty!
