"Best tour of our trip.."
WOW,WOW,WOW. Absolutely outstanding! Forget the sweater stores, and see what the real Ireland has to offer. Our guide Steve and Bonnie(his dog)were the perfect hosts. Steve filled us in on the history of the Howth fishing village, and many stories of the locals and his family history in the area. The views were outstanding, magical, and unforgettable. BEST tour of our trip! A must for all visiting the Emerald Isle.

One of the best ways to explore Ireland!
Shane is a local Irishman through and through, has lived on Howth for a long time and has impressive history and knowledge of the environment. One of the best ways to explore Ireland and connect with a local. His cute dog Bruno was an added bonus :)
