We had a fantastic time on our journey with Elva. She was so knowledgeable and accommodating. She endured my son’s quizzes on sharks with patience and enthusiasm. 🤣 I would highly recommend Tours by Locals and Elva.

Elva was a great guide for our trip from Galway to Dingle. She was extremely knowledgeable about local sites, lore and history. She was very attuned to the needs and interests of this grandma and my 15-year-old grandchild. I highly recommend her!
Our time with Elva was more than we had imagined. She was extremely personable, it felt as if we were long time friends. She was knowledgeable of area, adventuresome. Because of her knowledge, we were able to make unexpected stops along the way. She also made further recommendations for us for remainder of trip. We wouldn't hesitate booking with her again.
Elva was a wonderful ambassador/driver for our tour. Elva's knowledge of the area and pairing her knowledge with music was an added bonus. Elva ensured our comfort and created a tour plan that was flexible and aided us in catching the best windows in the weather for our outdoor pursuits. We have wonderful photos for our memory books all do to Elva's guidance. I hope to return to Ireland in the future I would definitely want Elva as my tour guide.
We booked Elva for her Galway (pick-up)to Killarney (drop-off) with touring with enroute and had a wonderful time. We visited the cliffs of Moher via a private road that led us to within 200 feet of the face of the cliff. We also visited the Burren enroute which was very interesting. We also stopped a wonderful place that made various chocolates on site. We would not hesitate to used Elva on our next trip to Ireland.
