I typically don’t do surveys or reviews for products and services however, I wanted to make an exception and comment on a recent trip through Wolfhound Adventure Tours (6 Day West) that I took with my wife, daughter, son-in-law, and 4 great friends (as well as 7 new friends I met on the tour). I expect a tour guide to be knowledgeable, but Dave O’Connor took it to another level. Whether it be delivering a poem, or singing a soulful Irish song, Dave impressed us all with his expertise in Irish culture, folklore, history and wildlife while demonstrating a great sense of humor. He had us laughing throughout the entire trip. It’s obvious Dave puts his heart and soul into his work and is deeply devoted and passionate about Ireland, its history, wildlife, and its people. This isn’t a typical tour. It was a wonderful whirlwind of learning, hiking, pub hopping and sightseeing which allowed us to become immersed in the Irish culture. Dave surprised us by taking us to several off the beaten path hidden gems which enhanced our experience even more. Dave took time to get to know each person in the group. He Introduced us to many Irish songs and artists including Christy Moore which I now have on my playlist. Dave has a gift of playing just the right song during each part of the tour which helps you to connect to his stories. Some of my favorite stops were Cliffs of Moher, Aran Islands, the Burren, Conamara, and the town of Westport. If you really want to experience what Ireland is all about then I highly recommend this tour. You won’t be disappointed.
