We hiked the Beentee Loop with Emma on our first day in Cahersiveen. What an amazing way to learn about the area! When we booked, Emma asked about our particular interests. She generously shared so much about the plants and landscape, local legends and history - all while we hiked up to a gorgeous view. I can't think of a better way to experience the Iveragh Peninsula than with Emma's friendly guidance. We definitely plan to book another adventure with her.

Terrific hike with Emma last weekend on Valentia, having been visiting the island for 20 years was great to discover some new routes and places i didn't even know existed! She was great craic and made it so enjoyable, will definitely book another one of the tours in future

We had family and friends gathered in Cahersiveen to celebrate a 70th birthday, and a group of us took a guided tour of the town. It was a fantastic experience—informative and enjoyable for both locals and visitors alike. Emma was an absolute pleasure to deal with. Many thanks!

I was lucky to be involved in a walking tour of Cahersiveen on Saturday morning despite the weather being damp it didn't stop Emma's enthusiasm for the history and mythology of the area. She is very knowledgeable, pleasant and engaging lady. I really enjoyed the experience and her pace suited our group. I would highly recommend booking a tour with her.

We had a brilliant 5 days in Caherciveen Co: Kerry and Emma McGrath from Oilean adventures put together a wonderful itinerary for us. She organised a swim and sauna at Cuas Crom beach which was so refreshing , a boat trip out to the spectacular Skellig islands , a day trip to the magical Derrynane house and information on wonderful seafood places to eat , Murts bar for the best pint of Guinness in town and information about ferry crossings times to Valentia island and back. Best of all she made us feel so very welcome with a wonderful pack of local jam, marmalade , bread, butter and chocolate.

Emma was an absolute find! She arrived on time as arranged,brought me on a looped walk on Valentia island, so I saw magnificent views from a height that I would otherwise have missed, she was a very knowledgeable guide,pointing out different places of interest and sharing stories. Her personality was infectious,I cannot recomend her highly enough!

Emma lead me a great adventure from the Glen to the cafe Cois Tra coffee in Balinskelligs over Bolus Head through Cill Rialaig. This is was a great education as well! Emma is very knowledgeable of local folklore and the natural world including geology. A wonderful day of exploration and discussion.

Emma was a great guide for me on a recent hike in south Kerry   She has great knowledge of the local area and was very helpful explaining the different routes  I highly recommend booking a tour with Oilean Adventures as it is a unique way to see the locality  Would definitely book again

We had such a great time with Emma on a recent tour! She created such a friendly atmosphere and had a lovely itinerary for us including hiking, lunch, boat tour and sauna. She is clearly very knowledgeable about the area, and we saw some beautiful spots while on the tour, a fabulous way to see a bit more of South Kerry. I would highly recommend going on a tour, such an enjoyable day and a great way to go to some picturesque spots away from the tourist mainstream areas and enjoy a day in nature!
