Best tour guide ever! - We are a group of girls from Manchester, England, who were on a weekend trip to Dublin. We decided to book on to the Wicklow tour and picked Darby O’Gill because the times suited us. But we were so glad we did as our tour guide Joe was an absolute legend! He was very accommodating, friendly, and helpful; he was the highlight of our tour. We would highly recommend!

Wes was great - Really liked how Wes took the time to learn our names. Wes also seem very well educated on everything throughout the day. Wes should keep it up and keep going.

Grand experience - Joe was a gifted driver on some challenging roads and an entertaining guide as we toured the beautiful Wicklow mountains. He even volunteered to take pictures of me at some of the sites as I was traveling solo and struggling with selfies. Thank you for a well-organized and lovely tour.

Tour guide Eugene was awesome! - Very reasonably priced all day tour of Ireland. Driver and Tour guide Eugene was very knowledgeable and accommodating. The sights we saw were beautiful and picturesque. We visited the Guinness Estate and Lake, the Peace Center, the Avoca Weaving Mill and some movie shooting sights. We also saw the monastic ruins and cemetery of Wicklow. Eugene’s driving skills were on full display. Maneuvering and turning on narrow streets with barely enough room to squeeze was unbelievable. All this and more for only 25£ per person. We highly recommend this tour. Don’t forget to ask for EUGENE.

Really bad guide and customers attention! - On 15/06 I went to the Wicklow tour but there were so many things that I can't ignore. First of all, the bus got out of the road on our first stop,so we had to wait almost one hour and a half to another bus, so that made us being late for the rest of the tour (we couldn't see Avoca). Second, I don't think is a good idea to have the same person for driving and for being the guide (It's really risky for all, the driver just must have to take care on the road not in talking to us about the place). Besides, the driver was really speed on narrow roads (what increments the unsafety that all of us were feeling). So that I sent an email to the company complaining about that and they didn't even answer. I would never take a tour of them again!
