From Dublin: Wicklow, Glendalough, Waterfall & Sheepdog demo

Rebecca_S, Jun 2026

Saturday Tour to Wicklow and Sheepdog training

Enjoyed the tour and Bobo singing and entertaining us during the drives from place to place. loved the sheepdog activity and the demonstration they gave us, they also allowed us to pet the sheep and dog which was great. Would recommend highly to people wanting a day trip to Wicklow

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

Laura_I, Jun 2026

This tour was amazing! ...

This tour was amazing! The drive into Belfast was the perfect length with a stop on the way. Giant’s Causeway was simply breathtaking. I cannot put into words how amazing this place is! The rest of the day was fantastic as well with the Titanic Experience being the last stop - we learned so much at this humbling place. Our tour guide, Luke, was wonderful and so knowledgeable. Our bus driver, Goran, was fantastic! Highly recommend this tour!

Cliffs of Moher & the Burren Tour from Galway

Jessica_P, Jun 2026

Cliffs

If your meeting stop is at the Kinlay Hotel in Galway, you must go inside and check in at the desk. If you want to sit with your family be there 30 minutes ahead of time. We arrived 15 minutes early and could only sit across from each other. Our guide, Patrick, was awesome. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. He pointed out many interesting sites and when able stopped for a minute for us to take pictures. The Cliffs are beautiful. It is a steep walk up and they do have a cart to take you up if you are unable to walk up. We were given two hours to explore and used every minute.

Dublin to Powerscourt, Wicklow and Glendalough Small Group Tours

Louise_B, Jun 2026

Amazing tour

Amazing tour!! We would highly recommend .. small group and very comfortable mini bus and excellent value for money. Richard our guide was brilliant and so knowledgeable .. open to questions and so helpful 🙏 You stop for lunch in small village snd you are led to ‘poppies cafe’ .. afraid our only disappointment of the day sadly.. food was very expensive basic and bland we paid a lot and didn’t eat it and others did the same .. wish we had tried tried other places in the village, there are many .. or eat at powerscourt gardens where food is far superior.

Dublin: Glendalough, Wicklow, Kilkenny and Sheepdog demonstration

Regina_G, Jun 2026

A must do tour esp with Ollie

This was a spectacular tour of Kilkenny Wicklow and Glendalough. Kilkenny is an awesome quaint town. The stop before Glendalough with the picturesque, breathtaking views was a great opportunity for pics. The sheepdog demonstration was fantastic and a must do. Everything was perfectly guided by Ollie. I hope everyone would be so lucky to have a tour done with Ollie (really hoping that we get him again during our stay and day tours) Ollie is very knowledgeable and educated us on the history of Ireland from 400AD to current day, all with humor and a fantastic attitude! Ollie was a bonus for our trip!!

Dublin to Wicklow, Glendalough Small Group Tour with Horse Riding

Vera_B, Jun 2026

It felt like riding into a fairytale!

The horseback riding was incredible. I loved Killegar Stables. Everyone there is super friendly, and the guide, Joe, knows the forest like the back of his hand. Riding along the pastures on the way to the forest, with the ocean as the backdrop, felt like riding into a fairytale. 10 out of 10. The rest of the tour was wonderful as well, with spectacular views and a bit of history and folklore as told by our guide Derrick. All in all, I would say horseback riding was the absolute highlight for me. If you want to ride in one of Ireland's most picturesque and magical locations, I highly recommend this tour.

Ring Of Kerry Tour

Wendy_S, Jun 2026

Rain did not put a damper on it!

Kevin was a great tour guide. Drove that bus through some pretty tight areas without a blink of an eye! We were thankful that we did not drive it! Lol! He took us to Dooley’s for lunch and the food was wonderful. The sheep dog experience was so interesting and fun to watch! It pretty much rained the whole day but we still had a fantastic day!

Blarney Stone, Rock of Cashel and Cahir Castles Tour from Dublin

Michelle_L, May 2026

SLAINTE - The newlyweds Marcus & Michelle

The weather we had was everything IRELAND had to offer except for high heat and freezing cold, everything in between was given - dress in Layers and bring a windbreaker/rain coat. The tour guide we had - BOBO- was absolutely brilliant in locations, histories, and personally funny stories. The tours of the castles and self guided tours were perfect. Explanation of time allowed at each sight, pick up/drop off locations were shown and easily found. You will need a full daily tours 3-20+ times to say you enjoyed and have seen some of the sights of Dublin Ireland itself. The tour buses we road on were clean, comfortable, quiet and had space for a larger traveler to sit and enjoy the passing scenery. The only bad part of all the tours -time - it will get away from you and then your running to the bus, being the last one to get on as everyone else is waiting on you… Bobo- Thank you for your knowledge, happy wishes for a long happy marriage and life. Bendiciones, salud, amor y vida (blessings, health, love and life) from Marcus and Michelle. Until next time.

Great tour in early May!

There are several short stops on this tour, so be prepared to get on and off! Connor was a fantastic guide and filled the driving time with pertinent information with an engaging personality. We really lucked out with the weather; it was cool and sunny so all the photos are great!

Excellent Tour

We were not sure about doing this tour as it can be a long day. However, this tour was awesome! Great driver, excellent views (we luck out with great weather), and the trip was well organized. Also, loved the lunch stop, great food options! We stayed on time and even made it back early around 7pm.
