I booked this trip reluctantly, thinking 22 euro was a bit steep for a half-day tour. But I enjoyed myself so much, I would have gladly paid any amount of money for this tour! Sean was friendly, funny and informative, and I really couldn't think of a better way to have spent my morning. More

While this four-hour-trip you get a lot to see on the Hook Peninsula. The scenery is beautiful. But that's not the only thing, you also have a very amusing guide who tells you a lot about the history of the surroundings. It is definetely worth doing it! More

Our driver/guide Sean was a wealth of information and fun. We very much enjoyed all of the stories and lore he shared from one destination to the next. He kept the children entertained for hours ... not an easy feat in the car. The locations he took us to were both picturesque and interesting. We never felt like we were... More
