We had an amazing time learning about oysters and all sorts of local marine life including crabs, starfish, lobsters, sponges... it was really great! We learned how to properly shuck oysters; Gerry was extremely informative and generous. We definitely recommend this experience to everyone. PS: watch out for the lobster, she’s very protective of her space (or prob just wants to make new friends) ;)

I have been on several hiking trips with Joyce! She is an amazing tour guide. She definitely looks out for our best interests and makes sure we have the best possible experience. The accommodations are always above average and the food is outstanding. The hiking is always breathtaking. This year we could not go on our scheduled trips, so she graciously rolled our deposit over to next year. I highly recommend Joyce’s Ireland Trips!

IWHB was great to work with on my walking tour (Kerry Camino/Dingle Way), from initial information and coordination, to day-to-day check-ins and weather updates. Morris provided a lively and informative intro the day before I set up, ensuring I was set up to enjoy the hiking. They are very well organized, friendly, knowledgable, and helpful. I don't hesitate to recommend using them for one of their tours, I was very happy, surprised really, with how much they had to offer and the way they went about it all.
