5.00We had a great tour with Dr Jane. Jane went above and beyond allowing us to reschedule our tour because we had transportation issues. She knows the history of the town fact and dates but also, she is part of it, being an O'Brien! Jane entertained all out questions so we were able to get a full picture of what it was like to live in Ennis through the centuries, all the good as well as the bad times. We had a private tour, just 4 of us. I recommend a tour with Dr. Jane!

5.00Jane has a deep knowledge and love of the town of Ennis. Streets, boways, buildings and people came to life as she shared their history and stories. Jane’s sense of humor and her engaging spirit were captivating and our time together flew by too quickly! We didn’t book soon enough to do the public tour at the beginning of our stay in Ennis, but Jane kindly added us to a private tour as soon as she could. Our remaining days is town were enriched by what we learned during our time with Jane and by the lingering memory of her warmth. Book early!

5.00Dr. Jane O'Brien was a wonderful find for our small group of friends. Already part of a larger tour of Ireland, we decided to add this walking tour of Ennis to our schedule. Dr. O'Brien is a well-known local who is an historian and had just the right amount of culture, history, and humor woven into her tour. So many back stories for this beautiful little town, and Dr. O'Brien knew them all. I highly recommend booking either a public or private tour with Jane!
