This was a great, easy...
This was a great, easy half-day trip to get out of the city for a bit. Glendalough was beautiful and its ancient monastic city was very cool. Keith (guide) and Larry (driver) were awesome, and provided a lot of knowledge and humor along the way.

A very nice tour
It was a very nice tour to Glendalough lakes and monastery. The driver was polite, fun and very informative. If you have only a few hours to spend visiting the area, this tour is a great option.

Linda was a fantastic guide! Lots of interesting anecdotes and history, and was very open to modifying the your however we wanted to. We had lots of laughs and enjoyed the tour very much! Glendalough was gorgeous, lunch was very good, and the gardens at Powerscourt are a must-see. Highly recommend!

I enjoyed the tour, the coach was very comfortable although I do think having a small bathroom on board for trips over 2 hours would be ideal. I think more time at Glendalough park to hike/enjoy the space would be great, and Kilkenney was charming and walkable way to end the trip.

Horseback riding was fun...
Horseback riding was fun and the scenery was beautiful! Quick stops at Guinness Lake and in the Wicklow Mountains for photo ops were nice, as well. Glendalough was a nice, short hike around the lower lake, and the Monastic Settlement ruins were interesting to see. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly.

We enjoyed the walk...
We enjoyed the walk through the woods at Glendalough that ended at the upper lake. The monastic settlement was also interesting.

Dublin - An authentic experience!
Liam was amazing and pushed our experience over the top. Glendalough and the Wicklow mountains took our breath away and we loved Dublin! Liam took us to a pub where we had the most delicious Irish stew and he taught us many Irish -isms; such as … follow me, I’m right behind you. Lol. What a great tour! I can’t recommend it enough.

Watch your step
The walking tour/ Hike offered some great photo opportunities. The natural beauty was really nice. I’d suggest the park enforce pet waste as the trail had many dog bits along the way left for hikers. The Glendalough tour was nice and a great chance to learn about early Christianity in Ireland.

Magical
Noel is very knowledgeable about the areas we visited. The Wicklow mountains were so beautiful. Went for a walk along the Irish Sea. Glendalough was unbelievable - so magical. Noel was a great guide. “Guinness” Lake stunning.

Loved it!
Martin and Phillip were excellent! Highly recommend the entire experience - we especially loved the Glendalough hiking, Phillip’s walking tour in Kilkenny, and all of the educational info along the way.

When to visit

Glendalough is a popular attraction for history buffs, families seeking open spaces, and outdoor enthusiasts.
The ground may be soft or muddy, so pack your hiking boots and bring along layers of waterproof clothing.
To see the full complex, be prepared for a significant amount of walking, as the site is spread across several locations surrounding the two lakes.
Visit the Glendalough Visitor Centre, where a video and exhibition shed light on the history of the monuments.
