Annie did a great job! She was super informative and got us in and out of several places efficiently. We were able to see a lot in our short stay. Highly recommend her if you want a great guide.
Aj V.United States
Annie was amazing! She took us the Blarney fast enough to beat all the other cruise ship crowds. She ran to get us in the cue and avoid getting wet with the light rain. She was very descriptive of everywhere we went, and even recommended the best restaurant in Kinsale. Thank you Annie!
