Denis Beakey

As previously noted, Denis gave me helpful tips for hiking and made sure he spent time hiking with each of us individually. I also liked that when the weather impacted a scheduled hike, he moved hikes around so we could still do that hike and the one scheduled for that day.

Denis and Katie were absolutely the best! They complemented each other well, were organized, punctual, supportive, fun and really made the trip fantastic.

Denis and Katie were excellent guides. Professional, knowledgeable and friendly. They made the trip.

Wonderful

Dennis was outstanding. He enriched our wanderings with his knowledge of the history, geology and flora that left us with a lasting impression of the landscapes
we were travelling through.

Again, our guide Dennis made the trip very enjoyable and informative.

Denis was great! Always accommodating and very knowledgeable about the area and the history.

I couldn’t imagine a better guide. Dennis was thoughtful and so knowledgeable.

Again, as one of the city guides commented, “Denis is a legend.“ A reputation well reserved. 10 stars out of five. We would go on another tour with him in a heartbeat.

Dennis was a wonderful guide. I enjoyed his knowledge of the areas and kind heart. The city guides in Derry and Galway were both very good.

Denis was truly exceptional. His knowledge of the areas with regard to habitats and history made the trip remarkable. Denis paced our group perfectly which is hard to do when you have a diverse group with regard to hiking abilities. It's difficult to make the more active hiker not feel restricted while not pushing too hard on those who were not as prepared. He did a fantastic job with kindness and caring and fun.

Denis made this trip a true experience not to be forgotten. We visited a remarkable range of very diverse sites ranging from the scenic to pre-historic to those of modern significance. Each was accompanied by his insights and truly enjoyable narratives. He also seamlessly balanced a group whose skills and levels of preparation varied widely. He is a real pro!

Great encouragement and service above and beyond when my boots failed. My only criticism was not reading the group on the very cold day where we hiked on a very rough, rocky road in the wind to see structures we already had seen before.

Denis was outstanding!

What can I say we really appreciated our Guide, Denis, whose vast knowledge, experience and evident pleasure in sharing Ireland with us made the trip truly special. Denis went out of his way to find out the group's interest and adjusted the itinerary accordingly.

Denis was very patient and kind and went above and beyond when my wife’s boots malfunctioned.

Our guide was excellent and made the trip especially memorable. His wide range of knowledge was impressive. He taught all day long on every subject imaginable. His kindness, patience and caring was truly impressive. I’m so grateful to him for making this trip so special

Denis was absolutely brilliant. Really knowledgeable and so friendly and helpful. The couple of organisational problems we encountered he sorted out so quickly and smoothly that we were barely aware there was a problem.

Denis was fantastic. He tried to accommodate the entire group. Not easy when you have different levels of hikers in a group. He sometimes allowed the faster hikers to go ahead so he could stay with the slower ones. One time half the group took a wrong turn, but he found us and herded us back! He found a laundry for us across from our hotel in Balleyvaghan after we fell in the mud along the Cliffs of Moher. He even gave me some tips on places to go, hike, and see in Scotland the following week. A very even keeled gentleman. Caroline was a joy to have along, even for half the week. She brought a different perspective to the hikes and had such a wonderful sense of humor. Our boat guide, Donal, was hysterical. We laughed our way across the lakes back to Ross Castle.

Denis is a wonderful and accommodating guide. His well-rounded knowledge of Ireland, its history and the landscapes that we were experiencing was especially appreciated. There was hardly a question that he wasn't able to answer. In our group, which was made difficult by varying hiking abilities, Denis want out of his way to provide a positive experience for all of us. He is a valuable asset to WI and if I were traveling again in Ireland I would definitely ask for Denis!

My guide, Denis, could not have been more kind and caring about everyone in our group. His knowledge about Ireland’s history, current affairs, folklore was limitless. Whatever your company pays this gentleman for his services is not enough.

Dennis was 100%, see my previous comments

Denise is outstanding. He made us feel like family.

Denis beaky is unparalleled. As I mentioned before, he is bright, informed, accommodating, flexible, knowledgeable, and just a great person. Everybody loved him. He made the trip fantastic. He was a highlight of our trip.
