It was an amazing excursion. We were pleasantly surprised by a breakfast of coffee and delicious homemade cookies. The views were breathtaking. Connor is a fantastic storyteller.
I went with the Erasmus group from Spain. We enjoy it lot. A lot of passion in what he do! :)
The major highlight of our trip to Cork has been a walking tour with Conor of Gormú Tours, “Placenames and their Amazing Stories in West Cork.” Conor had his work cut out for him trying to balance both my and my husband’s endless questions, alongside our five year old daughter’s desire to run and play, and he did so beautifully. It was quite literally the perfect day—I learned so much! It’s incredible to see how much passion Conor has for his home and for the Irish language, and to get to benefit from his wealth of knowledge. Our tour ended with the most delicious picnic of local artisanal foods (including strawberries that had been picked off the vine only hours before!), and boiled fruitcake made by Conor’s wife that can only be described as life-alteringly good! We are already looking forward to going on some of Conor’s other tours next time we make the trip to Ireland. I cannot recommend it enough!
I 'd really enjoyed a lot with his stories and i strong recomend him if you want to have a great time.
Gorgeous experience! Conor is a passionate storyteller!
Conor is a lovely person and a great professional. We learnt a lot about the history, customs and legends of Ireland. And it was a lot of fun!! I thoroughly recommend it!!
Amazing a wonderful excursion. The guide a great professional who had us entertained with stories and great information.. I advise him.
It's amazing and it's very interesting how Conor tells the stories and lives them. Very friendly, friendly and charming.
Connor is s great storyteller, and a lovely person. The way he explains the History and the stories is catching and you only want to know more and more. I really enjoyed today's tour and the picnic time was a nice surprise. Thanks Connor!
Conor is an amazing storyteller! We spent the whole day with him and learned so much. About myths, legends, and history… He’s not the best because of what he tells, but because of how he tells it and how he connects with his audience. I could have stayed listening to him for a whole week!
