    This tour was grand! Our guide, Marcus, was thoughtful, engaging, and knowledgeable of Irish language, culture and history. A great source for local sightseeing and spot on with recommendations for food and entertainment. Margaret, the host of my bed&breakfast could not have been more accomodating and my room was clean and very comfortable. The breakfast was nice and the dining room was very pleasant. As for the tour of the Irish coast and countryside it could not have been more beautiful, made even more spectacular with the very fine weather. Especially on our visit to the cliffs at Slieve League. I hope to join you for a future tour to see more of the enchanting emerald isle.
