Horses in the Countryside - First, our driver, St. Kevin, was excellent. The roads in Wicklow are narrow and winding and he navigated them perfectly. Also, his playlist on the bus was very good—a wide variety of genres. The views and scenery were very different from the urban landscape of Dublin. Enniskerry is a delightful, quaint village where we had a few minutes to walk around and grab lunch. The horseback riding was a lot of fun. We have done many vacation trail rides in the states and Canada, and this was among the best. Good horses and helpful guides.

A perfectly packed day tour! - This was my first solo trip on a tour and I was very comfortable. Our guide Kevin was friendly, knowledgeable of Irish History, gave us great recommendations on places to go in Dublin, and a great DJ. I chose the horseback ride and it was one of my best nose to tail ride in all my travels yet. The tour was broken up well with breaks in between driving and plenty of opportunity for bathroom breaks. I Highly recommend taking this tour!

Beautiful tour - This was a cute tour. Horseback riding in county Wicklow was just breathtaking. We lucked out and got some sun but it was still cold up there! Then, it rained out of nowhere. Welcome to Ireland! The village where we ate lunch was nice too. Everyone was so friendly. I definitely recommend this tour.

Super fun experience - Loved that we had a small group. Best way of doing this trip is a small group. Linda was great as our tour guide. The horses we rode were good for our experience thoroughly enjoyed our experiences

Wicklow and horseback riding - Got us all to the correct locations on a rather wet day. Kevin kept everyone well informed with stories and mythology as was pertinent to where we were at. Great guide. Would highly recommend and ended up having him for another tour later on. Thanks again for all your great information

Beautiful sights oh and horses - Got to see so much of Ireland. The horseback riding was the top of the iceberg. The tour was so amazing. Not to worry if you aren’t a professional Kentucky derby rider, they will show and teach you the basics you will need.

Must try experience - Great experience! My husband and I are inexperienced riders. I was initially a little scared to get on the horse but the staff at the stable made me feel comfortable and safe. They guided everyone throughout the journey and truly made it a once in a life time experience. The rest of the trip was calm and beautiful. Due to bad weather(We flew in the day it snowed pretty badly) we were not able to see the P.S. I Love You Bridge but our tour guide still showed us some amazing sights all while keeping our safety in mind.

Gracious hosts and great views. - Lovely views and vistas. Richard was a great tour guide. We first stopped at the stables for a 90 minute horseback ride through woods and bog, guided by Joe and Emily. They made sure we were safe on the horses and we got to walk and trot on the trail. We next headed to Enniskerry for a delicious lunch at Poppies, home cooking. Driving through the mountainous bogs, lots of views and understanding of how the mountains hold and filter rainwater. Next down to Glendalough for a hike through St. Kevin’s cemetery and to Lower and Upper Lakes.
