Loved the tour of the Cliffs and Aran Islands. - It was a great trip hosted by Barry. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. We got a lovely view of the cliffs from the ferry. Unique perspective given the weather challenges. The Aran Island tour was perfect as well. Very much enjoyed the tails at the sunken church. Ireland is a beautiful country and Barry added context to this backdrop. I'd highly recommend this trip.
