点评:The best decision we made after deciding to go to Ireland, was to begin our trip with Connect the Dots and Mark Doherty! Small group, we had 12, tours are definitely the way to sightsee. Mark’s itinerary with unique experiences was the reason we selected this 11 day tour. Fabulous hotels, breathtaking drives and vistas and amazing opportunities made our trip unforgettable. Mark’s knowledge of history, culture and the best places, along with his traveling soundtrack of all types of Irish music including his own serenades and stories, made driving in our comfy van totally relaxing and enjoyable. His food, shopping and pub recommendations were spot on. It’s hard to choose favorites, but we came away feeling like we had seen the very best of Ireland! We loved the sheepdog demonstration and holding a 4 day old lamb, the birds of prey demonstration and individually holding an owl and a hawk, trad music in the home of a musician at Doolin Music House, seeing Irish dancing by an international champion at Dingle Pub, watching crystal cutting at Dingle Crystal, walking on Giant’s Causeway and Slieve League, learning about The Troubles at the Felons’ Club in Belfast and seeing gorgeous castles, abbeys, monasteries, gardens, mountains and seascapes. Needless to say, Mark and Connect the Dots know how to show off this incredible country to its best advantage.
