Jason was absolutely amazing. He showed up promptly at the time we agreed on and was flexible about our itinerary. He's a local and a history buff and so had lots of history and stories to share. I even loved his stories about his family. I was learning and chuckling and engaged all day. His vehicle is nice and comfortable and he even had waters for us. Overall, I had a very very lovely day. Thank you SO much Jason.

Five out of Five stars!! I had a great time on the tour with Conor! He showed and took me to some great places and had the tour and trips thoroughly planned out! He was a great conversationalist which made the tour that much better for me! I would highly recommend him for a good time on a tour! He’ll give you advice from where to eat, other places to venture to not on the tour, to maybe even a good book to read!

Conor was the best! He was a superb guide and driver. His local knowledge of the area made our day that much better! He showed us places and told us stories only a local would know. He made us feel at ease from the moment we met and made sure we saw as much as possible in our day together and never rushed us. I cannot recommend Conor or this tour enough! Thank you!
