Dylan was great - informative, entertaining, and funny. We even got to try on different kinds of armor. We had a great time!

We ended up having a private tour on a Friday with Dylan. It was an interesting way to see the town of Kilkenny. Our tour guide was a good storyteller and was a little quirky in the best way. He was very funny and took us to a few great sites and gave us good suggestions to check other things out after the tour was completed.
