Had a wonderful day with Mary taking our family of three on a full day around the Ring of Kerry on a private tour. A truly beautiful part of the world. Mary was vey friendly, knowledgeable, flexible and accommodating allowing us to fully take advantage of the experience.
Thank you for your wonderful and kind Review. It was a most enjoyable day touring with you all and I hope you took home many happy memories of Ireland with you. Best Regards. Mary.
We were so fortunate to spend three days with Mary. We explored the Ring of Kerry, Blarney, and Cliff of Moher. She was a fantastic driver, navigating the narrow roads with expertise and comfort so we could simply sit back and listen to her wonderful stories and enjoy all the breathtaking views. Mary also took the time to customize our adventures to our interests, especially for my photographer husband and my love of gardening. I would highly recommend Mary for anyone who wants to get the most out of their western Ireland trip without the hassle of driving and with the intimacy of a small group experience.
Thank you so much for your outstanding Review, I really enjoyed your company and it was a pleasure to show you our country, it's heritage and culture. I hope you got home safely and you took home some happy memories of your trip to Ireland. Best Wishes, Mary.
Mary was knowledgeable, friendly and was flexible on the planned agenda. We had a great day and would highly recommend
Thank you for your wonderful Review. It was great touring with you and I am glad you enjoyed the tour.
This was the most beautiful day trip. Would highly recommend Ray he was so knowledgable and we saw so many beautiful places.
Thank you for your kind and thoughtful review of your recent tour to The Ring of Kerry with me. best regards to all. Ray.
An absolutely fantastic experience. Our guide Ray was very knowledgable, entertaining, and helped us avoid the crowded tour buses along the Ring of Kerry. The sheep dog demonstration was one of our favorite stops.
Thank you most sincerely for your very kind and thoughtful review of your recent tour with me to The Ring of Kerry and Skellig Ring. I'm pleased that you all enjoyed the day. Best regards to all, Ray.
We had a superb day touring the Ring of Kerry with Mary. She knows the area, its history and its special niches, and she adapted the stops to our interests. We explored historical ruins, an artist colony, and short trails to stunning vistas. We didn’t spend time shopping or eating, per our request. Whew. Logistically: Mary picked us up and returned us to our hotel in Tralee in a comfortable Mercedes, and gave us a full nine hours of her time. Easy. She also provided tons of information to help us navigate the national park and the Dingle peninsula on our two remaining in the area.
Thank you for your kind Review. It was an action packed day and you saw many scenic and historical places including the Artists Retreat Cill Rialaig, really enjoyed your company. Best Regards, Mary.
Two of us toured the Ring of Kerry with Mary of WalkWithMe Tours. The Ring of Kerry deserves its reputation as a major scenic attraction, and Mary was a superb guide, spraying gems of information about flora, bogs, community, life in Ireland and travel strategies for our return to Dublin airport. We were in a comfortable Mercedes sedan and were grateful to have someone at the wheel so we could concentrate on the glorious scenery. We visited some "famine houses", neolithic beehive stone huts, a chocolate shop, an excellent art gallery, magnificent scenery. including immense cliffs, rainbows and portions of the Killarney National Park. We enthusiastically recommend this guide
Thank you so much for your wonderful and kind Review. It was a jam packed day and I wanted you to experience all aspects of Irish history, culture and scenery. It was a pleasure touring with you both. Best Regards, Mary.
Had a full day tour of the Ring of Kerry tailored to our family's interests. Mary understood the age of our child and took into account: a good time for breaks, snacks, lunch, and getting some energy out at the beach. Our child really warmed up to her kind personality. This was the best value and way to see the Ring of Kerry. The pace was not rushed. We got to see roads/sites that were not seen by the buses. And, it was nice to relax and not worry about driving the roads (narrow spots, curves, horses, bicyclists, etc). We would enthusiastically recommend Mary!
Thank you so much for your wonderful Review. I am glad you all enjoyed the tour and it was a pleasure having your young daughter on the tour for the day. I hope you will take home happy memories of your trip to Ireland.
The total professionalism, depth of knowledge, comfortable car, timing, pacing, humor, we’re perfect.
Thank you for your very flattering and wonderful Review. I really enjoyed showing you the Ring of Kerry and the many hidden gems which are to be found on the Skellig Ring which is the true feel of Ireland in the depths of South Kerry, so glad you enjoyed the day and look forward to meeting you again in the future.
We had a wonderful day with Mary. I have already recommended Mary to my friend who is now planning a visit to Ireland.
Thank you so much for your Review and I am so glad you enjoyed your day with me. I look forward to showing your friend the Ring of Kerry and the back roads of South Kerry where the old history and culture is to be found. Best Regards, Mary.
