My wife and I retained the services of Michael Fox on 3/1/14 for a full day private tour of the Boyne Valley.
The bottom line is that both my wife and myself had a wonderful time with Michael. The only regret that we had is that we didn't book two days with him with the second day being another part of Ireland.
Michael picked us up at our hotel ( he was early ) and we made a full day of visiting several sites. The pace was perfect. Not too fast and not too much. The car is as advertised. A very nice Audi that gives a very comfortable ride.
Michael was a great host, very knowledgable about Irish history and kept us on schedule throughout the day. It was very nice that every place we went they knew him by name which made us feel very comfortable with him. We were even more impressed when he showed us a book on Newgrange ( one of the sites we visited) that has a picture of him witnessing the natural sunlight inside the tomb. This was validation that Michael was not your average tour guide.
Michael even accommodated my request to stop off at a pub for a pint. He took us to Regans in Trim which is supposed to be Ireland's second oldest pub. It was a perfect spot for a Guinness.
If you are looking for a private host to show you around Ireland I highly recommend Michael. You will not be disappointed. read more
