“Dragos is an incredible tour guide. Everywhere we went he opened the door for me, made sure I was comfortable and all my needs were looked after. He is incredibly knowledgeable and was able to educate me on local history and tales of old Ireland. His time management was impeccable and I was able to see all the things on the top of my list including the Doorin cave and the Sacred Well of Brigid. The cliffs were breathtaking. It was the trip I had always been hoping for and will never forget. If you are lucky you might get a chance to hear Dragos sing his song about Dublin.…”
