Best day of our trip! - What a lovely adventure with a lovely guide. Ulla is so interesting, friendly, and passionate about Ireland, that our experience was amazing. She is just so much fun to travel with and nothing was too much for her to make sure our day was memorable.

Great Tour of the Area and Kylemoor Abbey - Ulla was our guide and she was terrific. Had tons of information and was fun We loved visiting the Connemara as it is beautiful, the Kylemoor Abbey was terrific as we toured the House, the Abbey and then the restaurant/bar and enjoyed a beverage in the bar area. Beautiful. People were fantastic; grounds are beautiful and you have to tour the gardens as they are set up in sections and amazing. Wished we would have had more time as our guide was willing to show us more but we had another commitment Definately recommend this tour

Magical - Our tour through the beautiful Connemara, Kylemore Abbey and Doolough Valley was amazing. Ulla is a great guide. She's knows the area and its history so well and her enthusiasm is infectious. My advice for those of you thinking about booking: DO IT. Plan your time in Galway around her availability. You won't regret it.

Full day tour of Connemara - Ulla was a great guide (and driver) for this tour. She knew exactly where to go and was full of interesting information. She went the "extra mile" (or kilometer) for us, and we really enjoyed our day with her.

Perfect Day! - The whole day was amazing. From the moment Ulla picked us up, and listened to what we like to do and see, it was a perfect day. She has an incredible knowledge of the area. You know she truly loves what she does. She knew all the best spots to show us. Driving thru Connemara is breathtaking. Kylemore Abbey is a beautiful place to visit, we had an amazing lunch there in the cafe. Doolough Valley is awe inspiring. The drive back, she took us along the Wild Atlantic coast, it was the perfect ending to a perfect day .

Amazing and Wonderful. Highlight of our trip. - My son and I had a free day while in Galway looking at the University and found Ulla on TripAdvisor. Ulla was an amazing guide. She is genuine, caring and a lovely person showing you the most beautiful areas of Connemara and all the hidden gems. We were able to customize the day based on our interest and timing, including a relaxing walk on the beach with our feet in the Atlantic. It was beautiful! The day was ours to explore for as long as we wanted. Her car is spacious and comfortable. She packed snacks and water if we needed anything. Her personal touch made the day unforgettable. We would absolutely use her services again and recommend her to all who wish to have a wonderful day exploring. Thank you Ulla!!

This day was easily one of the highlights of our trip! We would absolutely use her services again and recommend her to all who wish to have a special day exploring. Thanks for everything Ulla!!

An Inspiring Tour Guide - I have never met a tour guide with such an innate love of both the country of Ireland and its people. As the author of a book on the western islands of Ireland, I was lucky enough to be invited to accompany Ulla on one of her many visits to the Burren in County Clare. Once there, she showed her deep knowledge of the area and pointed out so many fascinating aspects of the landscape and its deep history of music and song. Ulla is a very genuine and warm person who is truly inspirational and leaves you with only the desire for seeing more of this amazing place.
