A lovely day
It was a long day, but was worth seeing the beauty! Liam was an excellent tour guide. The stops at the castles were just for pictures, but was lively to see the sites. We were so lucky that the Cliffs of Mohr were clear! Liam changed the schedule to make sure we had good visuals. All in all was a lovely day.

Great, small bus tour
Kevin was an outstanding tour guide. He kept everything moving really enjoyed the smaller tour bus with only 16 people powerscourt was amazing when you stop for lunch go around the corner. There’s a tiny antique store that was well worth visiting. Found some gems to take home. Highly recommend tour

Brú na Bóinne is unmissable
We really enjoyed Matt as our driver-guide; he is very personable and his commentary relayed a lot of information in an engaging manner. Brú na Bóinne is an impressive site; it's incredible to imagine neolithic peoples 5000 years ago put these together with the primitive stone tools they had, predating even Stonehenge. The OPW have organised the monuments and exhibits well. I just wish the visitor centre had a replica of Knowth's east passage tomb instead of Newgrange (which you already get to enter). From an itinerary perspective, I would have swapped out the rather unimpressive Monasterboice which isn't particularly impressive for the Hill of Tara.

Wonderful trip to the Aran Islands and cliffs of Moher
This was a truly amazing trip.
We were given plenty of opportunity to view the cliffs of Moher on deck even though we were seated downstairs
The island bus trip was really informative with stunning views and we were given an insight on the history and current society and economic progress of the Island
Thoroughly recommended

Loved this tour!
Great tour, and our guide was a fantastic storyteller! I’m impressed with his ability to drive the bus in crazy traffic but talk to us at the same time in such a calm and funny manner! Wear good walking/hiking shoes and bring rain gear just in case. Each stop was interesting and fun. 10/10 would recommend!

A trip to remember
This tour is definitely worth doing! It gives you a wonderful glimpse of the Irish countryside while also allowing plenty of time to explore the lovely, colourful town of Kilkenny, take a stroll, and breathe in the fresh air at Glendalough.
The scenery was absolutely amazing, and our tour guide, Ollie, made the experience even more enjoyable. He was incredibly entertaining, and we loved listening to his stories. His passion for Irish history and literature really came through, making the journey both interesting and memorable. We also really enjoyed listening to some traditional Irish music along the way.
The sheepdog demonstration was absolutely adorable, and the farmer explained everything in such an amusing and entertaining way. It was definitely one of the highlights of the tour!
We thoroughly enjoyed every part of the experience and would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone wanting to discover a little more of Ireland beyond Dublin. 🍀

You won't be disappointed !!!
It was Worth The Money! The horseback Riding lasted 1.45 minutes. Richard our driver was very knowledgeable & is a Great History Buff; He was Very Detailed about his Accuracy on the History of GUINNESS. The Upper & Lower LOCKS Was GREAT& The P.S. I Love you Bridge was a fun quick stop.

Superb trip & great value for money.
Absolutely terrific. Kevin provided an absolute wealth of knowledge of everything we were passing, and he seemed to know everyone as well! Although the weather turned iffy after the Bog Village (great!), and the Sheepdog Show (marvellous!) we still got views of the Skelligs and Carraig Lomain (Lemon Rock). We enjoyed the free samples at the Chocolate Factory, before we had a lovely lunch of Irish Stew in Dooley's Seafood & Steakhouse in Waterville. The last proper stop was in the picturesque village of Sneem. My wife and I both thought this trip represented superb value for money and many thanks to Kevin and the Killarney Executive Tour Co. for making it possible.

This was a great...
This was a great experience. We took the horse drawn carriage ride in Killarney. Our gude was marvelous and the scenery was beautiful. Inch Beach was great watching the surfers and swimmers. Our driver Michael was great and provided us with lots of photo opportunities. Dingle was a lively village and the fish and chips at Harrington's was good.

Worth It-
We had Jamie and Das as our Guide and Driver- they were amazing, charming, knowledgeable and funny. They were thorough making sure we had seats together (there were 11 of us) and made sure no one was left behind. The biggest part of the tour was Giants Causeway and the Titanic Museum and there were quick picture stops for Dunluce and Dark Hedges. Giants Causeway does have a bus that can bring people with limited abilities- time constraints or who just don't want to walk the trails or path- for a very small fee. This was a great tour that ran timely. Shout out to Jamie and Das again for a great experience!

Ireland's natural beauty
We added this tour so my adult children could pet some sheep while in Ireland (!). It turned out to be a really nice chance to see more of Ireland's natural beauty, and yes, DEFINITELY some sheep petting. This tour is not a long haul from Dublin, leaving more time to hike around the Powerscourt falls--very pretty--and plenty of time to walk to the 2nd lake at the monastery in Glendalough. It concluded with a visit to a sheep farm. This was not a super commercial, produced thing--rather, it was a young man showing us how his dog, Jim, handles sheep herding duties when the sheep are sent to wander among the hills of Glendalough. A puppy wandered over, becoming the star of the show (we were encouraged to hold her!) and then we got the chance to pet and even pick up a sheep. Very fun! Overall, an enjoyable tour that did not kill us with too much time on a tour bus.

Batt was incredible! He was so knowledgeable about the area and had fun anecdotes along the way. He was funny and kept the entire bus entertained the entire trip. Excellent way to spend the day if you only have a short time to get out to the Dingle Peninsula to soak in the incredible views.
