      Beautiful views but...
      Beautiful views. Excellent driving by bus driver. Very disappointed in tour guide as very little information was shared about Ireland, sights we were passing and history. Nice person but a bit difficult to understand. He did not say one word the entire trip back from Killarney to Limerick. Can not reccomend.

      Would have appreciated a little more factual information along the way
      We enjoyed the day trip even though we were lucky to have the “complete “ Irish experience with a good bit of intermittent rain throughout the day!

      Amazing trip to Dingle despite the weather this month
      Amazing trip. Keith was a very knowledgeable and approachable tour guide. Definitely recommended for family and solo travellers. The upcoming months should be the best time. Not too crowded like the summer and the weather would not be dreadful like the time I went

      So much worth it!!! We enjoyed it so much. I guess we were lucky with the weather. Our driver was funny and knowledgable. It was interesting to listen to history and Irish old mythology.

      Fantastic Day Trip from Limerick
      Fantastic trip and this is highlight of our trip in Ireland. We had an awesome guide who was entertaining the whole way. Beautiful weather, probably the best day since we got here. Only regret is not being able to get to Skellig Michael due to the season. Would love to do this again or hike the Killarney National Park when it’s warmer!

      Broken PA system/poor customer service
      I was schedule to go on the Ring of Kerry tour on October 12th. When the bus arrived we were informed that both the PA system and radio were not working. Someone was supposed to meet the bus at that location to fix it, but did not come so there would be no sound for the entire tour. We were told there should not be a problem with getting a refund if we got off the bus, so we did. I sent an email immediately to the company explaining the situation and requested a refund. I did not receive a response after 10 days, so I called the company and was told it had been elevated to management and was again assured that it would not be a problem to get a refund. Over the next 3 weeks I did not receive any response to my initial email for a request for follow-up. I called today (6 weeks after the initial incident) and was told the matter was concluded and there would be no refund. They were unable to provide the service that was purchased and did not seem to make much of an effort to fix the PA system for the tour. It is very poor customer service to ignore emails and tell a customer verbally they will receive a refund and then change their mind with no communication to the customer.

      Excellent Ring of Kerry trip
      Great trip. The drivers were knowledgeable and funny. Did the horse drawn carriage thru Killarney National Park. Saw Dingle Bay, Waterville, Sneem, Lady's View and Inch Beach. Finished out with a rather large waterfall.

      Excellent tour of the Dingle Peninsula
      Excellent tour. Pick up in Arthur’s Quay in Limerick, stop in Killarney to pick up passengers, then off to Dingle Peninsula in an air-conditioned bus with USB ports for charging phones. Time at Inch Beach, Killarney, and Dingle, as well as many stops for taking photos along the way. Absolutely gorgeous vistas. Must see in Ireland!

      Great Day Trip to Dingle
      Paudie was an excellent guide on our trip to Dingle! This was a marvelous day with a stop in Killarney to shop (the Woolen Mills, jewelry shops, and a music shop were our favs). Dingle was delightful! We didn't make lunch reservations, and even though it was later than usual for lunch, Dingle was a hopping place. We ended up at The Boatyard (no wait) and our food was upscale and very tasty. Dingle was gorgeous and Paudie made sure we stopped for great "photo ops" along the way. We even stopped at Inch Beach to enjoy the ocean and refreshments. Every place we went Paudie had great advice to maximize our time. This was a great trip!

      Poor service
      Very poor service. Paddywagon rescheduled my 21 June tour to 22 June. And never notified me the new date was also canceled. I waited for the tour bus for over an hour, trying to contact paddywagon tours via phone, email and Facebook with no response. Only when another tour bus arrived was I rudely told my ring of Kerry tour was canceled and to contact viator. No apology for the lack of contact, just she couldn’t help me because I booked through a third party. I went into the office and Kerrie at least offered to reschedule again and apologized that my tour was canceled because we were the only 2 scheduled. She did have my email and was about to respond. This was after 9 am my tour was scheduled for 8 am. Paddywagon should have a representative at the tour location when the tour is scheduled. 2 days prior we had the 9 am tour and it was 1 1/2 hours late and no representative was around. Multiple people were calling and emailing. TripAdvisor wasn’t much better. They still sent texts and emails with the original date. No way to to contact them or send a complaint. I will get a refund but I lost the entire day I had been looking forward to.

      Nice trip! Well coordinated.
      The sunny weather made for great photos along the way. The stops made were enjoyable, and frequent enough to keep us energised.

    SUCH a fun tour! DJ (I’m pretty sure) was excellent and so kind. I want to address some of the issues brought up that had me slightly anxious before we left so that future travelers are out at ease. Sure, it was late at first, but you can’t force traffic to comply. The tour was to the Cliffs of Moher with additional stops and history of Ireland. To clarify, this is NOT a tour about Ireland. Head over to Google if you want find a tour that is about Ireland in its entirety 🤷🏻‍♀️. Otherwise, book your tickets now and be grateful you did once you see these cliffs and learn about some specifically curated Irish history related to the tour itself.

    The bus was a smaller one, but it was very full. We stopped in helpful increments of time to make sure we could stay comfortable, there was plenty of time to get on and off the bus at each stop, and the driver was clear and repetitive about how to avoid being left behind and make good use of each stop.

    The driving was not scarier than literally any other driving in Ireland. My philosophy is that a typical Irish bus driver is not going to harm themselves, harm 40-60 other people, an damage an expensive bus. Sit back and let them do their jobs. Ireland is not America. The roads are small, and the drivers make it work. Relax and enjoy your tour.

    Lunch in Doolin was AWESOME!! Plenty of time - again - to eat, walk around for a few minutes, use the restroom, and even get ice cream. Tip: your time can be best used by remembering that pubs take most often take orders from the bar. Find a table, remember your number, head straight to the bar to order. Couldn’t be more simple.

    The Cliffs of Moher center has some cool history there, and there are options for those who need some assistance up the steep climbs. Seriously, go on this tour. I doubt there is anything actually holding you back from it. I had my worries, and I didn’t need to waste any time on them at all. Also…bring a tip. The driver works incredibly hard to get you where you can’t honestly get yourself.

    My family and I took this tour recently. I forget our driver/tour guides name but he was very funny and personable. I like that he started telling us about our surroundings right from the get go. For example, When we approached the Limerick rugby stadium he gave us a great lesson in rugby and GAA football and hurling. We had such a wonderful time and I recommend patty wagon tours. I only have one criticism – while they are good about replying to emails I think they can do a better job with their responses. For example, I emailed them more than once about the actual exact location for pick up because I’ve never been to the city before and wanted to be sure. They emailed back confirming the pick up time but not the exact location. But nothing went wrong with the tour and we were able to find where the buses pick up passengers

    The Cliffs were majestic and we lucked out, as it didn’t rain. However, we booked this specifically because The itinerary stated we would be stopping in Doolin for one hour, where we could have lunch. To my surprise, we stopped in Liscannor and there was only 1 lunch choice. It was good but 3 tour buses stopped here, so it was crowded and busy. However, the service was speedy and lunch was very good. Paddy Wagon needs to update the website itinerary! Driving along the Wild Atlantic Way, it would have been nice to stop at the beach in Lahinch. Also, 1/2 hour at Bunratty is way too short. Need at least an hour. We had enough time to use the restroom and grab a coffee. Didn’t have time to explore the village, shops or gardens.

    Driver arrived over an hour late and only then were we informed the bus started with a pickup in Cork. Driver was nice but there was little commentary throughout the trip (about 75% of the time we rode in silence minus the occasional singing). All stops were cut down in time and there was no compensation for something that was entirely their fault. No stop at Doolin, instead late lunch at Liscanor. Would not use this tour company nor recommend. It added insult to injury that we paid full price for a tour that was cut by about 1/4 for a once in a lifetime experience.

    We arrived 45 minutes early in Limerick and checked in the Paddywagon office. We were told to wait across the street for tour bus marked Paddywagin tours at the city bus area. Different buses came and went. When no paddy wagon bus had come after 10 minutes past pick up time we went back to office to inquire. We were told the bus had already come and gone. It had been an unmarked plain white bus . Not the color ful paddy wagon bus with logo in all the pictures that we were told to look for. We then remembered seeing this bus . The driver did not hold up a a sigh, announce his tour or even approach us or call out names. He just had stood for a moment and drove off. We couldn’t believe how unprofessional and that no effort was made on his part to contact his 4 passengers . He wouldn’t come back for us so we were out the cost and out of a tour.

    I would consider this purely as transportation to the Cliffs, rather than a tour. The driver was pleasant and made a little commentary here and there, but the bus did not stop at Bunratty Castle or Doolin, as advertised on the website. The Burren was a 5 minute stretch of the legs. I believe they should update the website to indicate the lunch stop in Liscanoor and that Bunratty is only time allowing dependent on traffic. My bus was only 8 minutes late in Limerick and seats were whatever remained since the bus originated in Cork, where the majority boarded. The lunch stop is at a friendly cafeteria style cafe with minimal communal seating called John P. Holland Centre that was very crowded (2 tour buses) but apparently efficient. Instead, to avoid the crowd, I walked 3 minutes to a nearby pub that was able to get me in and out quickly with a delicious soup and chips. The port to charge your cell phone only worked on one side of the bus. Overall, if you need easy transportation to the cliffs, this is it, but if you have another less expensive or more personalized option, then skip the tour.

    The driver-guide was friendly but more like a driver who just talked to the passengers. It's hard to call him a guide. He gave some factual information and tried to make us laugh, but he was not a guide in the complete sense. An hour and a half on the cliffs of Moher was not enough. Instead, we stopped to see Bunratty Castle, which had a paid entrance, and we only had 20 minutes, so no one went there. So we didn't see it. It's not clear why we had to go there.
    We were taken to a restaurant with a good atmosphere but nothing special in terms of food.
    All in all, a pleasant experience, but not enough time on the cliffs of Moher.

    This tour omitted the very segments that especially interested us — in particular, the Burren and the coastal drive. Instead, we drove straight to the Cliffs of Moher, retraced our route to Liscannor for lunch, then continued retracing our route to Bunratty and then back to Limerick, arriving about 3:45 instead of the advertised 4:30 return.

    I feel cheated. This tour seemed to be the only practical opportunity for us, as seniors on holiday in Limerick without a car, to experience some of the Burren. I would not have booked this tour had I known that the only significant attraction would be the Cliffs of Moher. (The pause at Bunratty hardly counts. I know a shopping stop when I see one.)

    I asked Paddywagon for at least a partial refund and was refused, even after pointing out that their website continues to include the Burren in the tour description. Our driver said that tour bus licenses for the Burren were pulled several weeks ago, so the company is knowingly engaging in false advertising.

    Would have given just one star, but the driver and bus were great and deserve credit for the day not being a complete writeoff.

    The walk at the Cliffs of Moher was very nice, but the visitor center was a dark, chaotic, claustrophobic mess. Somehow everyone made it work and got what they needed, but I was glad to escape back into the open air.

    Apparently there were a few problems beforehand. We had travelers with us who wanted to go to Dublin. So a stop that was supposed to be in the afternoon was brought forward so that they could drop them off there. The stop that was planned for 1 hour was now held in 25 minutes. Then 90 minutes at the Cliffs of Moher and then a quick lunch. Then another 10 minute stop in the Burren (also planned for 20 minutes in the description). The tour guide always left at least 5 minutes before the stated time, so 2 travelers were left behind and only picked up again after lunch. Overall a great experience, but unfortunately much too short. We got back at 3.30pm instead of 5pm. A real shame, because we had paid for the full tour.

    The Cliffs were fantastic and the views breathtaking. I’ve wanted to see the Cliffs for years and finally was able to do so on a clear day. The lunch stop was great and so was the Burren. Bunratty was ok. The tour was advertised for 8 hrs. We left at 0930 from Limerick and were back by 1600, so it was a bit short. There was also no stop in Doolin. The driver held a very tight timeline and was actually going to leave with 3 people missing from the bus. He pulled away and passengers saw them running so he stopped. He was not happy about it. Do NOT be late getting back to the bus!
