My husband and I had an amazing experiencing planning our trip to Ireland which Shaun. Shaun listened to our hopes and dreams for our travels and was able to put together an extraordinary itinerary ensuring that we were able to see and do all our desired activities without being overwhelmed or exhausted. We arrived to Dublin and were greeted by our first driver and provided an informative tour on the way to our hotel. After a restful evening we had a lovely walking tour with Theresa through the city. Theresa was extremely knowledgeable and able to cater our tour to our interests. The following day we were greeted by Sean McBride. He was our fella for the remainder of our 9 day tour. We knew from the start meeting Sean, we were in good hands for the remainder of our travels from Dublin to Killarney, Galway, and up the Wild Atlantic Coast to Northern Ireland. His knowledge of the country was exceptional. Sean was able to answer all our questions with accuracy and humor. We were delighted to hear all the stories and histories of the regions we traveled through. From plant life to animals to all the amazing buildings Sean was able to provide all kinds of information. We really enjoyed his expertise. Sean truly made our trip most enjoyable and memorable. We miss him as such as Ireland itself!

We spent 2 wonderful weeks touring Ireland with the added extra of having Sean McBride as our FABULOUS driver. Sean provided us with great knowledge, compassion, safety and even sang some Irish songs for us in our travels. We loved our time in Ireland and Sean made such a difference for us. Thank you Sean!

Hi Pam, we are delighted that you had such a great time with Sean, he is one of many driver guides who like to give a rendition of their favorite ballad and driver guides like Sean and the rest of the team are what makes our tours unique. We really appreciate the feedback and we hope to look after you for your next trip to Europe.

My wife and I were visiting Ireland for the first time and were looking to explore all that it had to offer. Our driver for the trip was Peter Chambers. Throughout our whole trip he became more than just “our driver” and became someone that we enjoyed traveling with and learning about Ireland! He was so great! He was so knowledgeable about the whole country and had so many stories from his own experiences to compliment what he was informing us on! Peter also had great suggestions for dining experiences for every city that we went to. He didn’t miss on any of them! Every morning when he arrived to pick us up he was always there before the set pick up time and always had everything we needed in the car to make us feel comfortable , which was very nice when we were in the car traveling for a couple of hours. He is very thoughtful and you could tell he genuinely wanted to make sure that we had the best experience possible no matter what! He kept us laughing pretty much the whole time with his humor and seemed to make the driving go by much faster! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Thank you Peter!!

We had a WONDERFUL experience with this company! We had Kieran D as our personal chauffeur for the 8 days we were there. He was always prompt and had the vehicle clean and ready for us. Kieran was very personable and made our trip 100% better. He was knowledgeable about every area we went to and gave us great recommendations for restaurants, pubs, and nightlife. He had a good grasp on the history and relayed several stories about people/places we were seeing. He even personalized our trip as he got to know our party and made great suggestions for things that we may like that were not on our itinerary, but we saw instead and LOVED every suggestion. Bravo!

Its always brilliant to hear great reviews and especially about our drivers guides. Kieran like all the driver guides love their jobs and showing off our beautiful country and they know of the hidden gems that most tours don't go to. We look forward to helping with your next trip to Europe. Your business is very much appreciated.

The tour with Irish Luxury Tours was absolutely unbelievable. All details and arrangements were perfectly handled, but what truly made the tour spectacular was our tour guide, Peter Chambers. Peter was outstanding - he was informative, humorous, helpful, intuitive, a great listener, and so thoughtful. Peter made the trip truly special in every way with the planned itinerary and sites, but also with many hidden secrets that we truly enjoyed. Peter Chambers is an Irish national treasure, and if you ever have the chance to book his outstanding services with Irish Luxury Tours, I am certain it will be as memorable as our trip was!

We recently returned home from a trip to Ireland and Scotland with Irish Luxury Tours and its sister company, European Luxury Tours. To say that they went above and beyond to make our trip perfect would be an understatement! Eva and Shaun worked tirelessly to help us plan and book our itinerary. We would not have been able to do as much as we did without their expert guidance. They planned the perfect trip, booked everything we needed, and set us up with outstanding drivers and guides. Really, our drivers (Sean McBride in Ireland and Jim Johnstone in Scotland) were exceptionally knowledgeable and professional, and most of all, fun.
Irish Luxury Tours kept in close contact with us and responded to all our inquiries quickly and efficiently. We will certainly be calling them again next time we are traveling to Ireland!

Our party of 4 recently returned from a 2 ½ week guided custom tour with Irish Luxury Tours. We had an initial call to discuss that we were looking for in our Irish Adventure as well as what locations we wanted to visit. Shaun and his team then created a route with beautiful hotel recommendations and excursions along the way. During the planning phase we made several changes to our route and our requests were never denied. Everyone was so happy to help us, quickly answering our questions and updating our schedule to make this the dream trip that we envisioned.
Now for the good part; the actual trip! What can we say; Ireland is more beautiful than you can imagine, the people are kind, the food is outstanding and there are fun and unique pubs across the country. Our entire vacation was perfect; it was everything we hoped for and more. Our guide, Paul quickly became a member of our family and made our trip stress free. From securing everyone’s personal belongings and personal safety, to taking photos, accompanying us on excursions, and getting us all over the island safely. He secretly arranged for a pub with our surname to open early so we could stop by, meet the owners and have a pint. Many lunches were destinations that we never would have found on our own. The private tour guides that ILT hired for us, were knowledgeable and gave us a unique insight into Ireland’s history. Having a detailed itinerary with pre-purchased tickets, hotel accommodations chosen and paid for made the trip itself less stressful.
We truly have no words for Paul’s level of dedication to his job, and Irish Luxury Tours for their professionalism. Everyone with the company from the transfer drivers, the planning team and of course Paul were exceptional.

We had a great experience traveling with Irish Luxury Tours. Our guide Kieran was the best! He was kind, informative and patient. I was traveling with my 80 year old mom who has trouble walking and has slight memory issues and my 12 year old daughter. Kieran was able to roll with us at our speed and he was able to share with us as to what things may or may not be possible given my mom’s issues. He was a fantastic part of our trip. Irish Luxury Tours made our trip seamless where we didn’t have to think about anything, we just showed up at our designated time and they took care of the rest. Thank you for an amazing and easy experience 🙏🙏🙏 I highly recommend this travel agency!

My wife and I were invited to a wedding in Scotland, so we decided to spend 9 days touring Ireland. I received a recommendation from a friend to contact Shaun Rogers at Irish Luxury Tours. His response to my initial email was extremely prompt but more importantly he asked if I could call him to discuss what we were looking for in our tour. We developed a customized tour, that started in Northern Ireland and then went down the Wild West Coast of the Atlantic and finishing in Dublin. We have travel extensively and are picky. We developed an itinerary, which included a driver/guide, Eamon, whom picked us up at the Belfast Airport and drove us throughout the country for 9 days. We are very interested in history and local politics. Eamon was fabulous, personable, very very knowledgable about historical Ireland, culture and current politics. Easy to talk to ! He went out of his way to set up extra sites and experiences for us to enjoy. Everything worked like clockwork. Shaun was extremely responsive to any of our questions or needs. First Class Operation.

We had a superb trip. Our guide was phenomenal, perhaps the best we've ever had.. he was extremely knowledgeable of the history, lore, geography, ETC of the sections of Ireland that we traveled in ...and he has a outstanding personality and sense of humor. He worked day and night to make our trip a smashing success. Human innovate from time to time and take us to some additional places that were not on the itinerary just to show us more. The sections of the country that we were taken to were superbly beautiful and awe-inspiring. The hotels were excellent, as was the food. And of course the people are wonderful, extremely friendly and helpful. We will definitely come back someday!

Hello, we are three sisters in our 50s, looking for an Irish Luxury tour that would start in Dublin on Sept 7 and return us to Dublin on Sept 12 or 13. We would like a private driver who is fun, knowledgable and experienced! We would like to see the Cliff of Mohr and southwest Ireland. We love quaint villages, castles, sights by the sea, local charm, horses and shopping. We would love nice hotels and good restaurants. We see great reviews for Sean Doyle and Peter? Would you be able to send us a sample itinerary and cost? Thank you! Lisa
Written August 26, 2018
They can tailor an itinerary to your liking and also book the hotels. I would rather defer to them on cost as it varies depending on the hotel accommodations you select. Shaun usually spends some time on the phone with you getting a feel for your interests and then puts together a suggested itinerary. Hope this helps
