Refreshing beautiful scenery & good company - - My guide was brilliant. Very knowledgeable about the area from history to geology! Stories told in an easy way and well paced. I was a bit nervous of the walk as I was worried I was going to be slow but my worries were unfounded. The walk was well selected & pace easy.

In nature. - Being in the open air with unrestricted views of the ocean, the islands and the beauty that is Erris Head. Our guide was excellent knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Highly recommended. A wonderful experience!

Exactly what I was hoping for! - Wonderful experience! Neal picked up our group of 3 in Belmullet. The drive was full of information on the area. The walk itself is gorgeous and delightfully enhanced by the informative tour. It is a moderate hike with some hills and uneven surfaces. Neal answered all our questions, made us laugh, and stopped for all the photos we wanted. Highly recommend!

Fun and insightful tour - Erris Head is a gorgeous place to walk and soak in the beauty of Ireland. This was my first time visting Ireland and Neil made sure we saw every part of Erris Head explaining the rich history and culture. Neil is such an amazing person and we enjoyed the walk and talk exchanging culture ( I'm from Mumbai). Neil picked us up from our hotel which was a nice touch and much appreciated. He also gifted us his book on Belmullet. Would visit again for sure. highly recommend Alchemy tours.

Erris loop head - I’ve been to belmullet for the last 35 years so my whole life , never learned so much about the place than I did on the walking tour !!! Honestly it’s one of the highlights of our trip top man top knowledge if you are this end of Ireland book or you’ll miss out

Fantastic walk on a beautiful day. - Neal did a great job explaining the history of the area as well as pointing out areas of interest on the walk. Highly recommend.

Amazing Vistas; Fantastic Guide! - We lucked out on two counts -- we had a gorgeous day and a fantastic guide in Neal who shared with us his deep knowledge of the area and kept us entertained with his great stories and Irish wit. This walk along the cliffs is truly spectacular with breathtaking vistas far and wide. This tour is not to be missed. Without a doubt one of the best experiences we've had during our extended family trip to Ireland!

The most beautiful hike in Ireland with Phenomenal Guide. - This looked great, which led us to the NW corner of County Mayo. It ended up being the absolute highlight of our entire trip. Neal is so knowledgeable and passionate about this area and its history. We'd do this over the more publicized areas of W. Ireland any day and will probably go back and do it again. Don't miss it!

Spectacular walk, wonderfully described by Neal! - This part of Mayo is absolutely stunning. The cliffs, the sea views and the hills are spectacular. My wife and I have fallen in love with this unspoilt part of Ireland. We have a tent and by and large would consider ourselves to be quite self sufficient when on holiday, however Neal was able to add so much to our enjoyment of this wonderful place. His walk was perfectly paced for us and he punctuated our journey with stories and explanations that we would never have discovered for ourselves. He is very knowledgeable about the geography and history of this area and he has the ability to explain things in a very entertaining way without it feeling like a school lesson. We could have completed this way-marked loop walk alone, but if we had we would have missed so much. We would heartily recommend this guided tour. It is suitable for people of all ages who are of average fitness. Neal is a very courteous guide who has a great understanding of his subject as well as his audience.

Make sure you book Neal Doherty for a tour. - We spent the afternoon exploring Erris Head with Neal Doherty on a guided walk. The area around Belmullet is absolutley wonderful and breathtaking no matter which direction you look. Neal's love and passion for the land is evident on each step and his tour full of information, from geology to nature, mythology, war, history to current information, you are sure to be "infotained". Don't miss the chance to do this walk with Neal.
