Tipperary Heritage Tour, Cahir Castle, Rock of Cashel and Waterford.
My Ireland Heritage Tours的点评
点评:This trip back to Ireland we decided to try to find out where my father's family were from. We had a general idea, but contacted Sean, Aisling and the team before our trip, and arranged a 2 day heritage tour to find some homesteads and see some cool sites along the way.
Ian took us on a wonderful 2 day adventure starting on the first day from our hotel in Limerick, spanning across county Tipperary from Croom to Moor Abbey, with a pitstop in Bruff to see the Fitzgerald home, and finishing up with a tour of Cahir Castle and a hike to the Swiss Cottage. We spent the night in Cashel and had a wonderful dinner that night at the pub where we made fast friends with a local sheep farmer who was in town for a conference. The next day we saw the Rock of Cashel, and then made it down to Waterford for a tour of the Crystal Factory and Reginald's Tower. Ian then brought us back to Dublin for our final 2 days in town (where we took in a Six Nations Rugby match between Ireland and Wales at a local pub, which was also fantastic!).
Ian was a wealth of knowledge on just about about everything Irish, and spending the better part of two days with him was such a pleasure. You won't be disappointed if you book with this fantastic family business for your next trip to Ireland, as we could not have had more fun on these 2 epic days of our weeklong trip. It most certainly was the highlight, and was much better than just tooling around to tourist sites without an expert to point out all the cool things we almost certainly would have missed. Getting out into the countryside was also a highlight for me, as it seems like a lot of culture is missed by staying only in the bigger cities while on vacation.
We will certainly use this dynamic family team again when we return to Ireland. Kudos again to Sean, Aisling, and Ian for crafting an amazing 2 days that won't soon be forgotten!
翻译:这次回爱尔兰,我们决定探寻父亲家族的故乡。我们心中有个大概的线索,但在出发前还是联系了肖恩、艾斯琳和他们的团队,安排了一次为期两天的文化遗产之旅,沿途寻找一些古老的宅邸,并参观一些有趣的景点。
伊恩带领我们开启了一段精彩的两日探险之旅。第一天从利默里克的酒店出发,我们穿越蒂珀雷里郡,从克鲁姆一路游览到摩尔修道院,途中在布鲁夫稍作停留,参观了菲茨杰拉德故居,最后游览了卡希尔城堡,并徒步前往瑞士小屋。当晚我们在卡舍尔过夜,并在一家酒吧享用了美味的晚餐。在那里,我们结识了一位来镇上参加会议的当地牧羊人,并很快成了朋友。第二天,我们参观了卡舍尔岩,然后前往沃特福德,参观了水晶工厂和雷金纳德塔。之后,伊恩带我们回到都柏林,在那里度过了我们在都柏林的最后两天(我们在当地一家酒吧观看了爱尔兰对阵威尔士的六国橄榄球赛,真是精彩极了!)。
伊恩对爱尔兰的方方面面都了如指掌,和他一起度过的两天时光非常愉快。如果您下次去爱尔兰旅行,选择这家出色的家族企业,您一定不会失望,因为我们在为期一周的旅程中,这两天简直是精彩纷呈。这绝对是此行的亮点,比漫无目的地游览各个景点要好得多,因为有专家指点,我们几乎肯定会错过许多精彩之处。对我来说,去乡村地区游玩也是一大亮点,因为如果度假时只待在大城市里,似乎会错过很多文化体验。
下次再去爱尔兰,我们一定会再次选择这家充满活力的家族企业。再次感谢肖恩、艾斯琳和伊恩,他们为我们精心策划了这两天难忘的精彩旅程!
