    The tour exceeded our expectations! From start to finish everything was well coordinated. The tour guide was knowledgeable and made the trip interesting and fun. The driver, Paddy O’Brien deserves an excellent rating as well.

    We are nearing the end of our "magical mystery tour" of Ireland and to date have enjoyed the experience, scenery and accommodation. The guide and driver have been exceptional. The two disappointments have been the famine village which was poorly displayed and the guide was boring. Tonight's accommodation in Blarney is awful as the party is not scheduled to finish until 12.30 am. The 2 guests from our group who could not be accommodated here have had a blessing in disguise as we cannot be moved to somewhere quieter to get a decent sleep. Our room is just above the DJ and the strobe lights cannot be blocked out by the curtains. Such a pity to finish our experience in this way, after all, this venue had been booked a year in advance.

    Was bitterly disappointed after paying extra money because I believed the brochure that it would be leisurely was so wrong, yes didn't leave on average till 9.00am but didn't get to hotel till,6.30 had to met in bar at 7pm in dining room 7.30 got meal about 8.15pm if lucky finished 9.30. going to bed on a full stomach. We were driving quite a few times for 2 1/2 hours which is not good for the bladder. I mentioned to the tour guide why the long days reply it's only for the first couple days well that lasted for 10days. Whenever how long a journey would be oooh not long just down the road, well 1-2hrs later we arrived at our destination. Never again will I do a back roads tour or recomend it, tour guide needs to learn his measurements a hundred metres is not three or four, asked how long a walking tour would be he said less than an hour well it was over an hour and a half.. I'll stop now but could go on

    Anna

    Asked on June 28th, 2023

    I'm very interested in the Emerald Isle 2024 tour but was wondering if Wicklow National Park was an option to add onto it. Even if it adds another day.

    Tour Details
    • Blue-Roads TouringOperatorWritten June 2023

      Unfortunately, we aren't able to add days onto the tour and as the final day is mostly a travel day back to Dublin for drop off, there won't be much time available for a National Park stop. As the Wicklow National Park is quite close to Dublin though, arranging a day tour or something equivalent after the tour finishes could be an option for you.
