“Easy way to take in views of the Wicklow mountains if you do not have a car. Beautiful Killiney hill walk early in the morning, Great coffee and scone at Avoca, Sally gap and Lough Tay were as beautiful as I had imagined them to be. The best part about the trip was our guide, one of the most knowledgeable person! He just knew everything to be known about the area! Highly recommended tour if you want a chill no car tour of the Wicklow mountains!”
