So, I could go on forever about how much we loved our guides Rory (sic) and Pearse. They were genuinely nice guys were charismatic and caring personalities who truly cared that we had a great experience. When they found out that my wife's birthday fell on the trip, they planned and organized a surprise champagne toast on the beach and bought an circulated a birthday card. They were funny and engaging and worked so well together. They were knowledgeable, prepared, and resourceful, and, as such, were able to identity solutions to unanticipated problems. They were worked really hard in the physical sense, porting luggage, riding hard, driving, fixing bikes, etc. We all particularly appreciated how they went out the way to bring a personal touch to the trip and bring us off the beaten path to share with us interesting aspects of the local culture. We loved these guys!

Pearce and Ruairi were an ideal team for us. They were ready to guide us on an outstanding bike trip through rain, wind and the spectacular beauty of Ireland countryside, but also elucidate Irish history and culture. They were indefatigable! We wanted to know about every aspect of politics, religion and health care policy and they stood up cheerfully and intelligently to it all. And we had a blast biking the country roads, enjoying the space and our own pace to just plain appreciate nature in Ireland. We can’t imagine a better trip.

This was the best aspect by far of the trip! Ruairi Leddy and Pearse O'Toole were extraordinary in every way! We only wish every trip we took could be guided by Ruairi and Pearse. They were fantastic individually and worked so well as a team. Knowledgeable, joyful, positive, helpful, attentive...completely focused on ensuring we all as a group and as individuals had the best trip possible. They are AMAZING!!!!! we are so grateful for their engagement and support to make our week so wonderful.

Our guides (Ruairi Leddy and Pearse O'Toole) were fantastic. They made every moment of the trip great through their enthusiasm, knowledge of the area, kindness, patience, and humor.

I can’t find words to say how super Pearse and Ruari were. Knowledgeable, attentive and most of all fun guys to lead our pack - suffice it to say that I’d go anywhere in the world they were leading a trip.

Our guide Rouhry (spelling) was the final and most significant part of my never to forget trip With Wilderness Ireland. He knew the local history & it’s context to Ireland as a whole, priceless. His humor and good nature brought our group together in friendship and comradery. He was awesome. Tell him thank you for me.

Our guide was amazing. He was a last minute substitute for our original guide who was injured and I can't imagine he would have been better than Ruairi. He was so knowledgeable and overall a ball to travel with. In addition to being a last minute sub, he was (through no fault of his own) thrown some serious curveballs and handled them with grace and humor. He really made the trip what it was and I'm so glad the trip was led by him.
