Always get paid on time. I have really good time in Diamonds equine centre❤️Will miss it there a lot! [Deleted] 8/27/2017 I worked as a trail guide here. It was a great experience and I enjoyed it very much. You get to ride on the beach every day! Everyone is very patient and they explain everything to you so there cannot be any confusion. And they're very nice people, ready to help you with whatever you need. Safety is a priority (yours as well as the tourists'), but the trekking ponies are all very nice and quiet. I even got to ride some of the connemaras a little bit. And the place is simply one of the most beautiful parts of Ireland. [Deleted] 10/28/2017 Amazing place and very friendly staff. I really enjoyed be a part of team. I would like to thank you so much for opportunity and experience. I would like to come back in future. Highly recommend.
