The best of Wicklow, with a local, by limousine. A full day out!

Dublin
8 hours

This is a driven day tour of the 'Garden of Ireland' as County Wicklow is known. We will visit Powerscourt Gardens, Wicklow National Park and Glendalough. A hike could be included in the day if requested - or a sheep dog demo. (admissions/demos are extra). I am the eighth generation of an upland farm, with sheep and cattle, so know the area very well, and am proud to show it to guests.

Dublin - From Strongbow to the Georgians.

Dublin
3 hours

Dublin began life a a tiny riverside settlement. As the centuries passed it was colonised by the Vikings, the Normans and finally, the English. By the time of the Georgian era the population had risen to one hundred thousand people, who lived mostly between the boundaries of the Royal and Grand canals. The story of what happened in the centuries between the Norman invasion in 1167 and the end of the Georgian era in 1804 sets the scene for how Dublin became what it is today.

Revolutionary Dublin - 1916 to 1923.

Dublin

Discover the part played by Dublin in Ireland's long struggle to establish an independent republic. The bloody struggle ended in the Irish Republic with the signing of the 'treaty' with the British in 1921, at the end of a particularly bloody and brutal guerilla war against the forces of the British crown. There was further bloodshed in the civil war that followed the signing of the 'treaty' but peace was established in 1923. Discover what happened on this 3 hour tour.

Fantastic way to explore Tokyo

Yumi is the best. If we could give more than 5 stars, we would. Her depth of knowledge about Tokyo in general, the long history of the city, the insights into culture, people and food was such a great way to explore the city and it's wonderful sights. Highly recommend.

Yumi I.

Renate san Thank you very much for your super wonderful and quick review. You two were very friendly and so nice. Today is so hot and humid, you might be really tired. I learned many information from you by talking about many things. You have walked a lot today and you must be tired. Please get enough rest and prepare for the rest of your trip in Japan. From tomorrow onwards, I hope you will enjoy your first trip to Japan in Tokyo, Hakone, Kanazawa and Kyoto or Nara and so on and make many wonderful memories. And please come back to Japan again. Thank you for everything. Yumi
