Beautiful walk with amazing colors. The only thing more colorful than the hills was John the Man - John the Man was an amazing host. We ran into him outside the bus station. He asked us our expectations and proceeded to exceed all of them!

Warm host - highlight of our trip! - John is most certainly ‘The Man’ to see if you’re visiting Howth or Dublin. Incredible history retold by a warm guide willing to take all the photos you’d like along the way. I would recommend John and this tour to any friends/family visiting Ireland. Highlight of our trip!

John The Man is AWESOME - Highly recommend a walking tour with John The Man. It was an unforgettable journey. John is truly one of a kind. He’s a great poet, story teller, tour guide, comedian, photographer and more! This was my first time visiting Ireland and honestly this walking tour has been my favorite thing so far. If you have the opportunity to take this tour, DO IT. The adventures that will unfold will create lifelong memories.

Amazing experience ! - We had an incredible time with John ! We discovered a marvellous wild nature and we learnt so much about Irish history. John is the best guide we could possibly have. He is kind, funny and he cares about the people he meets. He loves his job, Ireland and above all people ! We will never forget this experience and from now on we will definitely never forget names such as "Skerries", "Malahide" or "Rush and Lusk". Thank you John the Man ! "Steph"

Great tour by John the Man - John the Man was an excellent guide, informative, humorous, caring, and delightful! Our mixed group of 6 women presented challenges to him but he made the trip easy and good for all. I thoroughly enjoyed the cemetery stop with its beautiful moss-covered stones. The hike was a gorgeous view of the sea but somewhat scary. John held my hand since I’m afraid of heights and made sure the other fearful person kept her eyes straight ahead while all the time he encouraged us to talk about unrelated topics. Others in the group scampered along with no trouble! John explained Eire 6 as being part of the signal to WWII aviators. Very interesting bit of history that is being saved. After the walk, he recommended a nearby restaurant with lunch of fish and chips. John the Man is a wonder and I highly recommend him!
