Dermot Ryan's Kinsale Heritage Walk was wonderful. You walk around the town of Kinsale at a…read moreleisurely pace no one would find difficult to keep up with, stopping to hear the local history and see photos of your surroundings as they were way back when. Lighthearted and funny and loving his home town, Dermot definitely makes the best tour guide you'd every hope to have. I loved this tour - it was absolutely wonderful.

If you're planning a tour of Ireland without John Fitzgerald (Wild Way Tours) as your guide, you'll…read morebe missing an awful lot. We'd planned a full itinerary, landing in Dublin, meeting up with John, heading for Galway, onto the Cliffs of Moher, and on and on. And we did all that, but what set John's guiding apart was his probing for what interests we had, and that opened our trip to history, fairytales, botany, the Great Blasket Island off the Dingle Peninsula that produced more authors than imaginable with a population that never exceed 272. There was little John could not expand on or point out as we travelled: the exact spot where Tom Barry led the infant West Cork Brigade in the Kilmichael Ambush against the British, the Black and Tans and the Auxiliary. All this came alive for us. We didn't just pass through Kerry counting pubs and shops. At John s urging, we spent several hours at the Kerry Country Museum, a jewel that makes Irish history and its personalities come alive. All of this, every mile, surrounded by rugged coasts and fifty shades of green. John made this trip memorable, enlightening, and great fun. His sense of humor is as deep as his knowledge of the country; he's relaxed, funny, and a great travel mate. If you can book with John, look no further. Taistil spraoi!
