Richard was great! Learning the history of Belfast was definitely worth the long bus ride.

The history and culture of Ireland given by our tour guide was very interesting and highly complemented the areas along the route. The only change I suggest to the tour providers is the overnight stay at Annascaul be moved to Dingle.
