Aiofe was our guide and Thomas was our driver. We had such a good time. Aiofe was so funny and knowledgeable, I could tell she really knew a lot about the history and she enjoyed what she was doing. She even shared a list of restaurants and recommended sites that she compiled. Thomas was also a very safe driver and he even got the bus safely through some tight spots. I’m so glad I was able to go in this tour with this team! I’d highly recommend it!
