Helena was a delightful, knowledgeable and charming tour guide. She met us at our hotel promptly at 9:00 am and led us on a wonderful tour. At my request, she brought us to Thomondgate, where my great great grandfather was born, and I saw the church in which he was baptized. We booked this in advance of our Rick Steves tour, and seeing Limerick beforehand was such a treasure for me.

We had a private tour with Helena for a group of 29 people. We really enjoyed it! Helena is perfect and experienced guide and a fantastic person! She loves her city and will definitely help everybody to fall in love with it! Unfortunately, we didn't have much time in Limerick and our tour was only 1,5 hours, but even in this time Helena showed us all outstanding places and owing to her we found out many interesting facts from Irish history. I highly recommend Helena to everyone!

Helena was great at letting us pick and choose our interests and going at our pace. She is such an enjoyable and sweet lady! We highly recommend her for any tour she offers in Ireland!
