RyanAir Magazine Issue 06 Aug 2007
Article - "Six of the best from Ireland's Wild West" - Named second after the Cliffs of Moher in the top six stops you should make in Irelands West.

"The best way to sample the towns history is to join one of Jane O'Brien's walking tours, which are like a "Journey through time".   Described with great warmth and wit, Ennis' colourful past is brought alive - peppered with tales of famine, poverty, murder and rebellion."

Clare Champion Aug 31st 2007
"Jane O'Brien is a natural.  With her red hair and friendly personality, she must be a hit with the tourists."

"Leonardo DiCaprio, Daniel Day Lewis and Mohammad Ali were all mentioned at various points in what proved to be a very informative journey."

Clare People 15th May 2007
"The visitors on the walking tour were intrigued by her explanations of the working methods of banshees and the mechanism for ducking women in the Fergus!".
