I went to Ireland back in September. I took the 6 day south west tour with Wolfhound Adventure and had an amazing time. What's great about Dave's tour is that there is always a choice which means that the tour is customized to what everyone wants to do. When we first started the tour Dave asked each one of us... More

I don't usually go on guided tours, too big, too impersonal, too hurried and harried, and those sentiments made Wolfhound Adventure Tours the perfect choice for me. With a 12-person maximum group, I felt I was traveling with friends, including Dave O'Connor, whom I had never met before, the only guide and owner of Wolfhound Tours. Since I love to... More

This was my 4th tour with Wolfhound Adventure Tours. Dave O'Connor continues to delight and amaze. Although 3 of my 4 tours have been to the same general area, Dave has kept it fresh by changing up the sites and activities each time. (The Southwest tour is the most requested and therefore the one he most often runs.) I thoroughly... More

This is the real deal if you want to appreciate Ireland'snatural beauty, people, traditions,history and music. Dave O'Connor, Wolfhound's owner and guide went out of his way to give us a comprehensive tour of his beloved country showing us many lesser known spots which larger tours would have skipped past. His enthusiasm is refreshing, honest and infectious. Despite the rain... More

My family just returned from a magical two week tour in Ireland. The first week was spent in Derry. We have a wonderful visit to all of the sights and sounds of Northern Ireland. We then returned to Dublin and met up with additional family members to begin our 6 day adventure with Dave O’Conner and Wolfhound Adventure Tours. I... More

We completed 2 tours with Wolfhound Tours (Dave O'Connor). The 6 day Southern trip and then the 5 day Northern trip with a a 2 day break in Dublin. I am 51 and my wife is 50 and we went with our 3 children, 25, 23, and 20. We had no idea what to expect and let me tell you... More

Dave O'Connor is the host of this adventure tour. He doesn't miss at all with either his Southwest tour or his West tour. There is plenty of time to sit back and take in the sights as he drives his Mercedes 13 passenger bus along the highways and roadways of Ireland. Along the way he regales his passengers with Irish...

I travelled to Ireland in June 2011 as a solo traveller. I was hesitant at first about a tour as I had never done one before but after a lot of research I finally settled on a Wolfhound Tour. I booked the 5 day West Tour! We departed Dublin and immediately after meeting Dave (the tour guide) and my fellow... More

I was on tour with Wolfhound Adventure Tours back in April 2010, when I toured with this small group tour through south and west of the Republic of Ireland. I am a solo tourer. Dave, is an excellent tour guide!! The tour allowed a lot of diversity, e.g. kayaking, surf lessons, walking, cycling, ....you name it!! I enjoyed my time... More

My husband and I just returned from a 6 day tour with Wolfhound Adventure Tours (http://www.wolfhoundtours.com/) in the Southwest region of Ireland. We had an amazing time and the tour vastly exceeded our expectations. We honestly cannot think of a way the tour could have been better for us. Dave, the owner/operator of the tour has a great deal of... More
