5.00Myself and four colleagues recently had the pleasure of taking a walking tour of Westport with Stephen, and it was truly one of the highlights of our day! From the very beginning, Stephen was warm, welcoming, and exceptionally knowledgeable. His understanding of the history of Westport was impressive, and he shared stories and insights that really brought the town to life. The tour was thoughtfully paced and engaging throughout, with plenty of opportunities to ask questions. In addition to the historical aspects, Stephen provided fantastic recommendations for local shops, restaurants, cafés, and art galleries that are well worth a visit. His genuine passion for the area was evident, and it made the experience all the more enjoyable. I would highly recommend this walking tour to anyone visiting Westport and would absolutely suggest booking with Stephen and Aisling. It was an informative, enjoyable, and memorable experience from start to finish.
