“Loved every bit of it , made me so proud to be Irish and the tenacity of the Irish people. Did not know how far the Irish people had gone across the world because of the famine. Only improvement I could suggest is having the staff dress accordingly. To give authentic to the place . Like on the Dumbrode ship ,or Muchross house experience.”
