The safari hike in Howth was a wonderful experience. Very lovely guides (Loki the dog as well :)). We saw beautiful spots and heard some great stories about Ireland and the spots we visited. At the end of it, we felt very peaceful. Thank you!

One of our favorite Dublin excursions. HIGHLY recommend taking a day trip to Howth and doing this tour if you have time. Our tour guide Dee was exceptional and provided a thorough history of the surrounding area. Plus the views are incredible from the hills! Thank you Dee and Howth Adventures!!

We have been coming to Ireland for 13 years and this was one of the most enjoyable activities. We could have stayed walking and talking to Shane all day long ! I would certainly bring other family members another time.
