Top Dublin Bus Tours - page 15

A bus ride to this adorable fishing village was the perfect way to spend the afternoon of our arrival. After the bus ride, you gave free time to walk around; go down to the water, have a snack at any of the numerous pubs or shop! Robby was a good guide and all enjoyed the experience.

An absolutely lovely experience. Our driver and guide, Richard O’Brien, was a wealth of historical information, was very humorous, and made the long day a terrific one. When I return to Ireland, I will definitely book other kinds of tours with Viator.

We had a fantastic day exploring three of Ireland’s iconic castles in one tour: the Rock of Cashel, Cahir Castle, and Blarney Castle. The Rock of Cashel was self-guided, allowing us to explore at our own pace and take in the incredible history and views. Cahir Castle was a highlight of the day. We received a short guided tour, and it was fascinating to see how well-preserved the castle remains. The guide did an excellent job bringing its history to life. Blarney Castle was the final stop, and it’s definitely more of an adventure than I expected! Getting to the famous Blarney Stone involves a bit of a climb, and the actual experience of kissing the stone was nothing like I imagined. Let’s just say it takes a little courage and flexibility! Still, it was a memorable experience and well worth doing. All three castles were unique, beautiful, and absolutely worth visiting. A special shoutout to our tour guide, Richard. He was hands-down the best guide we had during our time in Ireland. His knowledge, storytelling, and sense of humor made the day even more enjoyable. He shared fascinating stories from his years of experience and kept the trip engaging from start to finish. One piece of advice: if Richard tells you what time to be back at the bus, listen! Be at least five minutes early. He runs a tight ship, and that’s one of the reasons the tour runs so smoothly. Highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to experience some of Ireland’s most impressive castles in a single day!

The tea bus tour was a fun and unique way to spend an afternoon in Dublin. The bus itself was absolutely darling, full of vintage charm, and the retro music playing throughout the ride added a really fun atmosphere. Our hostess was also incredibly sweet and welcoming, which made the experience feel warm and relaxed from the start. I will say that I expected a bit more narration and information about the city along the route, as there was less commentary than I anticipated. The seating was also not especially comfortable, although in fairness, it is a converted school bus, so that probably should have been expected going in. One pleasant surprise was the amount of food and snacks included — there was definitely more than I expected, and everything felt thoughtfully presented. Overall, while it was not quite the sightseeing experience I had imagined, it was still a charming and memorable outing with lots of personality.

The music was absolutely amazing. The whole time we were there was magical and uplifting. I love dance and the different Irish dances along with the traditional music was beyond anything I could have imagined. We also had dinner beforehand and the meal was delicious. I highly recommend this experience if you want to learn about Irish music from a funny engaging group of people who clearly love what they are doing! This was an A+ experience.

The walking tour at Guinness was an educational experience of how a truly great brewer consistently produces a top shelf product. The tour was well worth the time and a not to be missed experience in Dublin. The pint at the conclusion sealed the deal.

The Hills of Tara are just amazing! The tour guide, whose name i cant remember, was amazing. He walked with us and was very knowledgeable. He gave the group Irish mythology stories ad explained all about the Cairns and mounds. The views are extremely gorgeous in each and every stop. From the hills to the Abby we just could not grasp how gorgeous, luscious, and green everything is. There is some intense uphill walking that my wife was bot able to complete, so keep that in mind when booking. She has a bad knee and it is a steep hill.

Excellent time with Dave. The experience was terrific. Dave was very accommodating with timing issues and we made the best of the time we had after meeting him. Viator trip was 5 star. FYI to ship passengers: Princess had a procedure that prevented people with outside tours from tendering to shore until after 9:30 (tendering started at about 7:30 am) and we left the ship at 10:30 for a 30 minute tender. Therefore we missed almost half of our full day experience. Better communication would allow people to make alternate trip arrangements.
