The Summerhill House hotel and the scenary. Visited Powerscourt gardens and walked around the sorrounding areas. We then relaxed with a nice meal in the restaurant. This was not enough because my wife suggested we head in to the village of Enniskerry and walk around the shops and have a drink in the one of the bars. which was very... More

The guide was wonderful!!!! It was Monday the 6th 2013 and a bank holiday. The sun was shining so he knew it would be crowded> He re arranged things so we beat the crowds. He was very friendly and kept control of the bus because some people kept talking and we couldnt herar him. He said something right away so... More

I really wanted to make sure I´d remember to send feedback this time. I travel a lot every year to different countries. And here, in Ireland, I experience the best guided tour ever! I´ve been many times in various tours, and been disappointed with too loud voice, not funny jokes at all or guides who can´t even speak English. Well... More

This could have been awful -- yes, it rains in Ireland (a lot!), but a walking tour at Glendalough in a downpour would have been a rotten way to spend the day if it had not been for our terrific guide "Jillian." She truly made the best of a soggy situation. The tour included her commentary of what we were... More

This was an amazing tour! I was travelling with my mother who has limited mobility and our tour guide, Richy, was very helpful! He would bring the bus closer so that my mother didn't have to walk as far and he was funny and helpful, also very knowledgeable! We loved this tour and would recommend it to everyone. The Wicklow...

We were a party of 6 who took this tour and thought it was absolutely fantastic!! We were a bit afraid that i would be a long day on a bus, but our driver/guide Joe made us all forget about time. Long time since we laughed so much, and he was brilliant in his knowledge about Ireland! The scenery was... More

The guide was really fun and informative. Unfortunately, due to snow we were not able to do a few if the stops and left me a little disappointed. Had a lot of fun at Glendalough though.

We did not want to take up a full day of traipsing in the country and we treasure our opportunities to sleep in. There is a bus that leaves at 11:30 AM in the city centre on Dawson Street and leaves Glendalough in Wicklow at 4:30 PM. It is run by St. Kevin's Bus Service and can be found at... More

I had chosen this tour based on the positive reviews here, but I was quite disappointed with my tour. By the end, I felt like we didn't really do that much. Our first stop was an unnecessary "coffee break" during where there is nothing to do if you don't want to get something at the restaurant. I just walked up... More

This was my first trip to Ireland with some former college roommates, and we had only 5 days to do as much as we could! This day tour was recommended at the Visitor Center, and we are so glad this is the tour that we chose! Joe was a wonderful guide, his knowledge of the city and countryside was so... More
