First trip to Ireland and the many shades of green on the Emerald Isle was Amazing!!
Our 8 day private, customized tour of 4 adults with Little Gem was flawless! We were a little late in the game in searching for a tour company and were fortunate enough to find Little Gem. We were the last booked tour of 2024. It was a fantastic tour!! All activity options, hotel accommodations and restaurant recommendations were outstanding. From start to finish, Little Gem delivered nothing short of excellence and Niamh, our tour planner was wonderful, always prompt and responsive to our needs. She did a great job in helping us put together our itinerary on the Wild Atlantic Way. Our journey began in Dublin, then south to Kinsale and onwards along the Irish west coast which took us along meandering roads, breathtaking scenery, and idyllic countryside, towns and villages. Some of the highlights of our trip were staying at Ashford Castle, and a hawk walk on the castle grounds. That night at Ashford castle we heard a piper sing in Gaelic and discovered the Irish bagpipes! We loved a speed boat sea safari in Dingle, and an overnight stay at an Irish farm with traditional music and dance. Our guide/driver, Colm was excellent! He was warm, friendly and knowledgeable. We learned so much about Ireland's history and culture and the people who are the friendliest and are the most welcoming!! Colm was always attentive and not only did he have a great disposition, but also interjected humor with stories which we greatly enjoyed. He also took us off the beaten path to show us some of his favorite spots and places which made our travels all the more memorable. We highly recommend Little Gem. We are sure they will exceed your expectations as they did ours!!
