“When you're ready to see Ireland...the real Ireland...this is a fantastic way to do it!”

Reviewed 28 December 2011

person found this review helpful

I have traveled with SWWI twice, once in 2004 on the Dingle Peninsula walk and once in 2011 in Northern Ireland on the Glen Arms/Giants Causeway walk, and can't imagine a better way to really see Ireland. Both walks have been guided tours of small groups of 10-15 people with daily walks along coastal cliffs with amazing views, between fuschia... More

This past September we walked the Ring of Kerry guided walk with SouthWestWalks Ireland. This was our third walk with them and once again it was a wonderful experience. Previously we had walked the Dingle Peninsula and the Beara Peninsula. There is something about Ireland that seems to beckon us to return each year. One of the main reasons we... More

“NUMBER ONE CHOICE FOR AN INTERESTING, ACTIVE IRISH HOLIDAY”

Reviewed 2 November 2011

person found this review helpful

Fun, laughter, great guides, opportunities to experience and enjoy a variety of Irish weather conditions, glorious warm sunshine, winds that may blow your hat off, and the pitter patter of warm Irish rain drops on your face or glasses. The right attitude of having fun and being well prepared for all kinds of weather is the perfect recipe to enjoy... More

“Three walking holidays with SouthWest Walks and they are the BEST.”

Reviewed 23 October 2011

person found this review helpful

In September, my husband and I went on our third, self-guided walking trip with SouthWest Walks. In 2007 we walked the Kerry Peninsula, and in 2010 the Dingle Peninsula. We've always chosen the self-guided option, which means that SouthWest Walks takes care of all the important details regarding lodging, maps, transportation of our luggage, etc. A key item SouthWest Walks...
