Aleksandra was amazing! The amount of time and effort she put into making this itinerary and trip special for me was above and beyond what I expected. She was open to making adjustments to my trip itinerary based on my interests. She had good, timely communication and was kind and cooperative throughout this entire process. Her knowledge of Ireland was very impressive as I felt the itinerary she planned for me allowed me to do so much in only 10 days time. This trip was my first solo trip and first trip outside of the country and it has been the most memorable, amazing experience for me. Thank you so much, Aleksandra!
Hotel Reviews
My host, Penny, was incredible. She was very welcoming upon my arrival. She was kind and made sure I had everything I needed during my stay. She also had great suggestions for local restaurants to try out. The BnB was cozy and just down the road from Bunratty castle!
Great location! The townhomes were very clean and comfy. The staff was very nice and helpful. They even made a bag breakfast for me for an early morning flight from Dublin back to the United States.
One of my favorite stays on my 10 day Ireland trip. The host was so kind and made a wonderful Irish breakfast. Rooms were clean and comfortable. An ideal location in Galway as it only took me 10 minutes to walk from the Latin Quarter and Cross street!
I was only here for one night. Minimal interaction with staff but they were welcoming upon check in. Room was clean and meet my needs. It was fun having a bar connected to the guesthouse although life music lasted until midnight.
Great stay! Very nice hotel a couple of miles from the town center. Good breakfast in the morning although they seemed a little short staffed. Room was very nice and clean! They use a system where the room key goes in a slot to conserve energy, so make sure the switches are adjusted appropriately at night. Motion sensored so my TV and lights in the room came on during the middle of the night with movement in the hallway.
Staff was very friendly and welcoming. My host prepared a great Irish breakfast in the morning. Solid location just a 10-15 minute walk from the downtown Cork area.
Activity Reviews

I really liked my tour guide, Mydie! She was very kind and welcoming upon my arrival to Ireland. She was willing to take pictures of me during the tour. She had great knowledge of Dublin city and was able to provide me with great recommendations for bars and restaurants to check out. I was a little bummed that we couldn't go inside Trinity college to see the Book of Kells. Mydie said the police in Ireland don't like when smaller tours or 1:1 tours go inside the Book of Kells. I wish they would let her more freely take small tours inside the college! Overall though, Mydie was awesome and I really enjoyed walking around Dublin with her for a few hours learning about the city.

I had a great time touring the Guinness Storehouse! The exhibits were fun and informational. It was self guided so I felt I could take my time moving from floor to floor. The taste testing and the free pint of Guinness on the 7th floor were definitely highlights!

Hi Brennan,
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your incredibly kind words!
It truly means the world to me to know that your first solo and international trip was such a special experience. That’s exactly what travel should be—memorable, meaningful, and inspiring.
I hope this is just the beginning of many more amazing adventures for you. And whenever you’re ready for the next one, I’ll be here to help make it just as incredible.
All the best,
Aleksandra
