点评:Bryan had told us that those who visited Devenish Island came away refreshed and the better for having the experience. Our time on this tour proved the truth of Bryan’s words.
We booked a private tour on the little yellow taxi which was so much more spacious than we expected. Travel to and from the island was very enjoyable, enlightening and interesting ascBryan shared the history of the area, interspersed with some humorous local anecdotes. It is a wonderful thing to hear the passion of a local who clearly loves his county and the island, and who is delighted to share it with others.
Our time on the island was profound. As we wandered the site, learning much from all Bryan shared, and gazed upon a landscape viewed by many before us over the centuries, we could not help but be moved. Regardless of your background or belief, if you take the time on this island simply to be still, to look and to listen you will find it is a very spiritual experience. As we strolled slowly across the lush green grass back to the boat, it was hard not to ask to stay longer, so moving was the atmosphere of this beautiful place. We had originally planned to travel no further north than Sligo but we are so very grateful that during our holiday planning we found this tour and decided to travel further to experience it. We were both profoundly moved by the island and by Bryan’s obvious passion for it. It is an experience we would repeat in a heartbeat. We cannot recommend it highly enough to anyone considering this tour. Thank you Bryan!

我们预订了私人导览服务,乘坐的那辆黄色小出租车比我们预想的要宽敞得多。往返岛上的旅程十分愉快、富有启发性且妙趣横生;布赖恩向我们讲述了这一地区的历史,其间还穿插了许多风趣的当地轶事。能听到一位当地人满怀热情地讲述他对自己家乡和这座岛屿的挚爱,并且乐于与他人分享这种情感,真是件美好的事。
我们在岛上的时光令人难忘。当我们漫步其间,从布莱恩的讲述中收获良多;当我们凝视着几个世纪以来无数人领略过的这片风光时,心中不禁感慨万千。无论你的背景或信仰如何,只要你愿意在这座岛上静下心来、放慢脚步……只要用心去看、去聆听,你就会发现这是一次极其富有灵性的体验。当我们沿着郁郁葱葱的绿草慢慢走回船上时,实在很难忍住不希望能多待一会儿——这个美丽之地的氛围实在太动人了。我们原本计划只去到斯莱戈便不再往北了,但非常庆幸的是,在规划假期时我们发现了这条旅游线路,于是决定继续前行来亲身体验一番。这座岛屿以及布莱恩对它的满腔热情深深打动了我们。我们绝对愿意再体验一次这样的旅程。对于任何正在考虑参加此行程的人,我们都极力推荐。谢谢你,布莱恩!
