We travelled with Michael Fox for 1 day to visit Megalithic sites and other sites of interest around Dublin this May 2013. Before traveling to Ireland, we shared by emails what we wanted to visit, in response Michael proposed other sites of interest and made a proposal for a tour that would satisfy our request for a 1 day tour...

We are just home from our trip to Ireland and hands-down the highlight of our excursions was the day tour we booked with Michael. Native to the Boyne Valley, Michael's knowledge of Dublin, the surrounding areas, and Ireland's vast history made our day with him worth every penny. We ventured to the Wicklow Mountains for the day with stops at... More

We travelled with Michael Fox to the National Stud and Japanese Garden in Co. Kildare, a tour that is advertised on the website. Trouble was, he had no knowledge of the area and openly admitted that after we were already in the car and headed in that direction. We had allocated that day to visit that location and made a...

The Boyne Valley is the area I know best however I have done private tours to Kildare and Wicklow, while my knowledge is not as comprehensive as the Boyne Valley, I do know the area. It was my first time to take guests to the National Stud and Japanese Garden which are a joint attraction. I had researched the attraction... More

We enjoyed his humor and the taste of life in Ireland. Michael was with us for a week. Never a difficult moment. Just lots of fun. His timing for meals and breaks... More

We had very specific reasons for visiting the Boyne Valley and limited time to see some of the more remote sites in a single day visit. Michael was superb in exceeding our aspirations, our detailed questions and great company to spend the day with. We spent a fascinating 11 hours with him, and even tasted the delicious cakes of his... More

I travel the world for business and get to spend a few extra days touring the local sites. I must admit, the tour with Michael is at the top of the list for favorite tours. My wife went with me on this trip to Ireland and surprised me with this tour she arranged. We had the best day!! We went... More

Michael Fox made our day in the Boyne Valley extra special. He picked us up at our hotel in a gleaming black Audi and spent the next 10.5 hours focused solely on the desires of my wife and me. He asked us what kinds of things we were interested in and what we wanted to see. He knew the ins... More

Michael Fox provided my wife and I with an excellent day tour of the Boyne Valley. We left Dublin early in the morning and by the end of the day had seen the entire valley with excellent conversation the entire day. Great Irish stew and lunch at Slane Castle. Met Michael's priest and had a great discussion with him. Learned... More

We recently went to Ireland and booked a one day tour with Michael for the Boyne Valley. Michael picked us up at 5:45 a.m. so we could see the equinox illumination at the Loughcrew Cairn T. We were quite fortunate with the weather and it was an amazing experience. Michael also walked us around the site and provided many interesting... More

The four of us had a great day out with Michael, visiting various historical sites ranging from Newgrange (3200BC) through to the Battle of the Boyne (1690). Michael was great company and couldn't do enough to ensure we enjoyed our day. At each site he organised everything to ensure we got the most out of our visit, arranging video presentations... More
