Great tour. Great guide. Great day! - What an awesome day - we did get real lucky with the weather for sure. Gerry was our guide and he was really great - soooo enthusiastic, knowledge and funny. Howth was spectacular and the village was fun. Great restaurants. We ate at The Oar House - fantastic fish and chips!

Howth - Howth was a beautiful peninsula a must see in Ireland. Weather was perfect so we walked the cliffs down to the town. Our tour guide and bus driver Gerry was funny and informative, he was the icing on a great adventure.

Unhinged comedy, beautiful views, and a relaxed hike - We had a lovely time which partially due to our unhinged (in a good way) bus driver/tour guide Gerry who kept us entertained for the ride. Howth was beautiful and we were lucky to be rewarded good weather. We opted to take the hike after the first stop which only took 1 hour. The views were amazing and 100% worth taking the hike for. We even got to see a seal bobbing out in the ocean. The trip did feel a little pricey especially as we could get the train/bus there from Dublin for a lot less.
