What are people saying about Ireland

Loved this tour
We had a great trip and really enjoyed our tour guide Conor who was a very informative! It was nice to see other parts of Ireland while we were on a short visit and could squeeze the tour in as it was 7 hours. The sheep dog demo was amazing to see live. We really enjoyed the beautiful countryside and highly recommend this trip!

Connor was amazing!
Connor was our driver and tour guide and he was amazing and funny too’ he was very knowledgeable and helpful during our trip. There was a few road work would had effected our tour but he was a quick thicker and come up with a better plan B for everyone. High five to him!

Recommended Day Trip
Great day trip experience. The meeting spot was easy to find and has a cool "Dublin" sign for photos op while you wait. Our tour guide Matt was the best. Very attentive, informative and overall good guide personality. The return time was actually early but it depends on traffic. The time at each sight was sufficient to see everything. We got lucky and had no road issues there or back.

Highly recommend this tour
Kevin was our guide, and he was wonderful (funny, knowledgeable, entertaining). We got to see some beautiful sights even though we missed some because it was so cloudy. Definitely glad we didn't try to drive the Ring of Kerry ourselves (the roads are SO narrow and I want to be looking at the hills/cliffs/coast and not at the road!)
Kevin had lunch all planned out so they were expecting us and the restaurant had great beach views. The sheepdog demonstration is fantastic.

Very well coordinated and...
Very well coordinated and planned. Enjoyed each stop as it allowed us to get up and stretch our legs. Our driver, Richie, provided great facts of the history of Galway with knowledge and humor. While the weather seemed to not want to cooperate, we ended up being able to take great photos of the Cliffs of Moher. Lunch was very good and efficient. Overall, loved the tour and would recommend to others

A Simple, Worthwhile Day-Trip While in Dublin
Jacob and Tomas were great! The tour was timely, organized, and well-paced throughout the day. They set clear expectations and were incredibly knowledgeable along the way. I especially appreciated the candid conversations surrounding Belfast and Northern Irish history and hearing some of that perspective firsthand from Jacob.
The Giant’s Causeway was definitely the focal point of the tour, and I appreciated that we were given the most time there. The Titanic Museum was equally impressive in its own right, though you do need to pace yourself to comfortably get through everything within the time provided. The castle stop was also nice, even if it was mostly a quick photo opportunity.
The one stop I could have done without was the Dark Hedges. While they’re nice to see, many of the trees have unfortunately been graffitied, and I felt that time could have been better spent exploring Belfast or having a little longer at the Causeway.
Either way, I’d absolutely recommend this tour. It’s a great way to cover a lot of ground and experience something completely different from the pubs and downtown Dublin for the day.

Linda is great!
Linda made an already beautiful day even better. She handled the bus like a pro on some seriously narrow roads, kept us entertained with fun facts and local stories throughout the drive, and happily answered everyone's questions. The scenery was incredible, but Linda's friendly personality and knowledge really tied the whole trip together. Highly recommend!

Beautiful Aran Islands
We lined up at the passenger entrance for the Aran islands ferry. The ferry ride was about an hour long to Inesmore island and we chose to walk the trail (many others rented bikes). The landscape was beautiful and we walked to the Seal colony (I saw six seals). We walked back and hung out in the village the rest of the time.
We boarded the ferry and made our to the Cliffs of Moher but because it was so foggy we couldn't see them. We did see a dolphin and some puffin flying around.
We then made our way back. Even though we didn't get to see the cliffs it was still worth while

Mick's enthusiasm for Irish history made this tour unforgettable!
There was so much packed into this tour: neolithic sites from 5,000 B.C., sacred Celtic gathering places, an 850-year-old castle, an atmospheric medieval abbey, and even a whiskey demonstration! Yet we had time to do it all somehow, even with a relaxing sit-down lunch in a lovely village. Our guide Mick's enthusiasm for Irish history made this tour unforgettable.

Recommend!
The half-day tour to the Wicklow Mountains and Glendalough was beautiful and well worth it. The scenery was stunning. You have two hours to explore on your own. While there's much more to see than you can fit into two hours, it's enough to enjoy the main highlights and get a great impression of this beautiful place. Paddywagon was very well organized, which made the whole experience easy and enjoyable. As a solo traveler, I felt comfortable throughout the trip. I would definitely recommend this tour.

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!!

Fun Day Exploring the Beauty of Ireland
After a bit of a difficult start as the driver was delayed due to traffic and we had to make up time, we had a fun day exploring Ireland. The driver Brian was so knowledgeable about each of our stops and telling us about Ireland. He was even witty with a dry sense of humor.

Ireland is packed with wonderful places to visit, but trying to fit them all into one vacation can feel stressful. Ireland day trips let you take in several sights in a single day and help you learn more about local history and culture than you would alone. Whether you want to walk famous coastal causeways or kiss a lucky stone, an Ireland day trip saves you hours of planning.
