Beyond the best customer service and experience
We were lucky enough to have Michael as our guide after Viator mixed up our reservation.
He taught us so many amazing mind blowing facts. He was very compassionate when we would have to stop to take breaks. The climb was beautiful and breathtaking and definitely worth it. Don’t hesitate book this trip.

All we could say was, WOW! What a beautiful way to see the country. Our hike of the mountain was spectacular. We ranged from ages 25-51, and we all put this experience high on our list of things we did in Ireland. Special shout out to our guide who was awesome!
