What are people saying about Ireland

Dublin: Giants Causeway, Dark Hedges, Dunluce and Belfast Titanic

Tiana_B, Jun 2026

An Incredible Day Trip and an Even Better Guide

This was one of the highlights of our trip to Ireland. The itinerary was well organized, and we were able to see several iconic locations in a single day without feeling rushed. The Giant's Causeway was absolutely stunning, with plenty of time to explore and take photos. Bonus was our tour guide, Mac, who was one of a kind. He kept us on our toes, was beyond knowledgeable and willing to chat about Irish politics. He also sang everyone’s national anthem (in their respective languages). Genuinely impressive and also refreshing. This man has found his niche; having him as a guide was an experience in itself. Would absolutely recommend!

Galway to Cliffs of Moher, Aillwee Cave & Dunguaire Castle Tour

Robert_F, Jun 2026

Terrific day tour.

Excellent full day tour. Kenny was very knowledgeable, extremely helpful and the most entertaining tour guide. While admission to the Aillwee cave was optional and an extra cost, the entrance fee was significantly discounted from the normal price and very well worth it.

Kilkenny, Wicklow and Glendalough Sheepdog Trials from Dublin

Jim_M, Jun 2026

You won't be disappointed

We chose this tour for the variety of activities relatively close to Dublin. Our guide Ian was outstanding, keeping us informed and entertained along the way. Our driver Warren handled the bus like a sports car in a good way. Ian's walking tour of Kilkenny was excellent, and his lunch recommendations were spot on. Glendalough exceeded my expectations with beautiful scenery. The sheep farm and dog demonstration was everything I hoped it would be. The scenery on the last leg of the trip through the Wicklow mountains was breathtaking.

Kaitryn_J, Jun 2026

Beautiful day trip from Dublin

Our driver, Declan, was very friendly and energetic in sharing his knowledge of the history of Ireland (plus some fun facts about the city too!). Come prepared with a raincoat, decent shoes for walking, and water! The monastic ruins and trails were beautiful!

Excellent, well paced knowledgeable guide Peter and driver Tomas

Really well paced and interesting trip. Our guide Peter was very knowledgeable, kept everyone on time and all done with humour and fun. Our driver Tomas was excellent and very accommodating and even dropped us off at the Titantic Museum in Belfast as a favour. Highly recommend

Afternoon Tea Bus Tour in Dublin

Susan_L, May 2026

More About the Experience Than the Tour

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.

Galway to Aran Islands & Cliffs of Moher Day Tour & Cliffs Cruise

Michelle_B, May 2026

A very fun and windy excursion!

I really wasn’t going to leave Ireland without seeing the Cliffs of Moher and it was worth it to me! By nature of where they’re located there is a pretty long bus ride, that’s unavoidable, but our tour guide Pavo was really nice and told stories for the ride. I’m really happy we went with the boat tour because it’s adds something special to the day and it was really cool seeing the cliffs from both the bottom and the top. The visit to Inisheer was also really fun. I don’t think we would have done it otherwise, but it was a cute excursion. We rented e-bikes to see the island (beware that was really expensive), but it was fun! There’s not actually too much to do there if you’re not doing some kind of excursion, but you have the option of just walking around. The boat ride is actually the same ferry that takes you to and from the island. You can sit on either side because you get a view of the cliffs either on the way there or on the way back. We sat outside and on the side and definitely got very wet from splashing, so be prepared that that could happen. You can sit in the middle or inside to avoid that. Also note many people got motion sickness. As for seeing the top of the cliffs, it’s not a super long hike up, just pretty steep. The bus takes you most of the way, and on a normal day they have the option to have a golf cart take you the rest of the way. The weather was too windy for us to do that. In fact the wind was actually a little scary the day we went and was knocking people over. That being said, very beautiful views! If I have any advice, please make sure you’re prepared for the weather. I was not and it was my biggest regret because I spent most of the day shivering, especially after I got wet. Still glad I did it! We rolled with the punches and had a good time overall.

Guinness Storehouse Ticket and Big Bus Dublin Hop-on Hop-off Tour

Renee_F, May 2026

Make time for this one!

Did the guided tour — very cool experience. Allows you to take your time and soak in all of the information. Would recommend at least 2 hours to thoroughly experience the tour + time to enjoy your free Guinness in the gravity bar. The views are amazing — you’ll want to stay for a while.

Connemara Day Trip Including Leenane Village and Kylemore Abbey from Galway

Matthew_A, May 2026

Other than the brakes on...

Other than the brakes on the bus sounding like they haven’t been replaced in 10 years(and obnoxious in passengers), this was great. Stops were very nice and the route was well planned. Make sure to bring some cash for sheep food if you want and DO NOT skip the nun chocolate at Kylemore.

Fun city tour

I love being able to see the entire city this way :-) or at least the highlights. I love the idea of being able to get on and off wherever I want to. The tour guide was exceptional as well! Explaining things along the way really helped us to understand things better. Plus they had a great sense of humor! Highly recommend this.
