Incredible guided tour of Irish cairns - My friends and I had an incredible and immersive experience touring with Diana here. Loughcrew was an absolutely gorgeous and picturesque site to visit. What made it all the more special was Diana's informative and enthusiastic tour. She really painted a picture of how incredible the construction and function of the site was, and what ancient Ireland may have been like. Her knowledge is in-depth, and she was not thrown by the myriad of different questions that our group asked. I left the tour feeling a deep sense of awe and delight by the cairns around us and their rich, vibrant history. Cannot recommend this tour enough!

Sacred sites with an amazing, knowledgeable guide! - What an incredible time! Diana created an unforgettable experience for our group and was so kind and flexible under pressure (we were a little disorganized). She shared so much knowledge about the Hill of Tara and Loughcrew Cairns that made our visit richer and more impactful. Ireland's beauty is obvious but we wouldn't have enjoyed it half as much without an understanding of the history, legends, and culture surrounding the sites. Thank you Diana, and thank you Gateway to Ireland!

Awesome day and so accommodating! - Diana was truly the most amazing tour guide. When I say she went above and beyond that does not even begin to cover it. We had people arriving at different times due to travel delays and she did so much to make sure we all joined up and were able to go on the tour. She truly wants you to have the best experience and will cater the day to fit your needs.
