      Marvellous experience!

      "We booked two day tours with Derek: the Cliffs of Moher and Connemara. Apart from the wonderful landscapes, Derek showed us various places - no spoiler - and very nice restaurants. It was a brillant experience! Derek is kind of an encyclopedia (Wikipedia for the younger) about Ireland, the region, the history, the culture, the language, sports, etc. - his knowledge is so impressive! Derek is a splendid, very nice guide. We'll certainly return to Galway someday, and will certainly book a tour with him again. Thank you so much for the unforgettable days, Derek - go raibh míle maith agat!"

      Connemara

      "Spent a good portion of our day with Derek with a trip to Connemara area. The scenery was spectacular. Typically one thinks of Ireland as green fields and stonewalls. By getting out or Galway City we were able so see the mountains and lakes of this beautiful area. Derek had a solid plan for the day and was more than accommodating to our wishes. This was so much more that a bus with 50+ of your closest friends. One on one with a local who is excited and proud to show you his city and country is the way to go. If you think of going on a tour with any of the many tour type companies, look into With Locals and specifically Derek. This is the absolute best way to spend your time and money while getting a view of the real Ireland outside the city. Thank you again Derek for time well spent. We wish you all the best. Matt and Robin "
