I'm so glad that I booked this hike for my day in Howth! Zack was an excellent guide providing history and local flavor from his time growing up in Howth. We were also joined by Zack's dog, Loki, who was a delightful hiking companion - full of energy! I got lucky with some incredible weather - sunshine and clear views. The main road and cliff paths were extremely busy, but Zack took our group into the middle of Howth for some incredible views without all the crowds.
I would highly recommend the experience as long as you're comfortable with a long hike with some pretty serious inclines. Our guide did a great job of checking in with everyone, setting expectations, and making sure you have a chance to catch your breath and enjoy the history and views throughout the hike.
Zack also provided photos and videos that he took along the way which was an amazing way to remember the hike without having to worry about doing all the documenting yourself. Especially as a solo traveler, I really appreciated this.
Bottom Line - I would highly recommend this hike as a way to see Howth away from the crowds with a friendly, knowledgeable guide!
