Galway Streets

Wonderfully planned and executed trip. Our tour director was a gem and looked after us as if we were in her own family. Lots of good, first hand info, including her native experiences growing up and raising her family. She did poetry readings, wonderful Irish stories and sang a song or two, all seemingly by memory.

Great Irish Tour

Loved the Titanic museum, the Killarney National Park jaunting car ride through the park, local guides who lived through the "troubles" and able to give a personal sense of Ireland's tragedy, Waterford factory tour, the Sleah Head tour and Dingle, the sheep dog demonstration and the weaving demonstration.
