- KSKathleen· September 6th, 2025Killian was our driver/guide. He shared Irish history and fun Irish folklore as we travel through the country side. He brought us by sight that were near by but not on the itinerary which was a bonus.Show moreTrip date: August 2025
Susan· September 1st, 2025This experience cured me of the travel bug. Never again. The most "memorable" part, sadly, was the constant stream of profanity from our tour bus driver/guide. He seemed quite knowledgeable of the various site's history and legends, but would then tell us it was all #*&%(@&*@* nonsense. He also drove like a maniac over extremely narrow, bumpy terrain. My companion's smart watch registered 90 minutes of vigorous exercise from our seat at the back of the bus on just one leg of the trip. This would have been fun when I was a child, but as a senior adult, not so much. As for the tour, your information pages state that "entry fees to visitor attractions unless specified" are not included in the package price. That's fine except you do not say that some places require electronic payment, some places require cash and some places require coin only payments. The driver spoke very quickly and gave dining recommendations at various stops in the middle of other information and would say, "give them a google and make reservations", then carry on at rapid fire pace and expect us to remember all of it! When we returned to the bus one morning he asked if we'd brought the maps that he'd given us on the day before, and then cussed us all when none of us remembered him telling us to bring the map. I could go on. One last thing, I did not expect to see all of Ireland in 5 days, but I did expect to have a bit more time that 5 - 10 minutes for a "pop out for a photo and on we go". Perhaps fewer stops with a few more moments to breath between rollercoaster rides would be better. The saving grace of a bad experience is that it makes a much better story than a good one. Must find the rainbow in all things.Show moreTrip date: August 2025- Brenda· August 16th, 2025It was an excellent trip. Sandra was very knowledgeable and helpful. Liked the add on options that were available. Good pace and food stops. Accommodations were great. It hit the highlights but made one realize you probably need a return trip to cover sites fully! Loved having someone else handle driving and finding parking.Show more
Trip date: August 2025 - MMaggie· August 4th, 2025This was a great experience. Our drive and guide was very knowledgeable about the history of Ireland and connected all that we saw from 9000 BCE to modern day Ireland. Fascinating. The accommodations were so nice and recommendations for eating were always good. Thank you.Show moreTrip date: July 2025

- MDMichael· May 11th, 2025The organization and itinerary were excellent. Our time was efficiently used to get the maximum experience of all that was lovely and interesting. Killian was spectacular! He was a skilled driver and excellent teacher of background, connections, and history. He was responsive to the group. He was funny and helped create an atmosphere of group cohesion and identity. We all had fun, and felt like friends very early on. We had the benefit of an excellent group of people and the luck of perfect weather. Best tour I have ever done. Loved the size of the small group tour, and the ease of quickly getting everyone on and off the van.Show moreTrip date: May 2025
- LGLinda· May 10th, 2025The Tour was nothing short of fabulous. Our driver & Tour Guide Dan the Man with a Mercedes Van & a Plan was a fantastic driver, Irish Historian & showed us scenery we would never had seen if we had toured on our own. It was like a Private Tour as there was only eight (8) of us in the group. We were basically family. Accommodations were fabulous in Galway & Killarney. We would sign up for another Rabbie's Tour in the "blink of an eye". Linda & GordoShow moreTrip date: April 2025
- Natasha· April 12th, 2025Loved this tour! It was the perfect balance of learning a lot of history and culture, seeing incredible sights, and also plenty of time to wander and explore and just experience the charm of the place. Our guide was excellent and interesting. We were also lucky enough to have incredible weather- 5 days of sunshine! I highly recommend this tour.Show moreTrip date: April 2025
- Thomas· March 26th, 2025We had a great trip! Our driver Marcus was fantastic and adjusted the trip to take advantage of the weather and interests of the travelers. The small bus was great because we were able to go a lot of places none of the bigger busses will ever get to - felt like we saw some of the less touristy sites in addition to all the big ones.Show moreTrip date: March 2025

Traveler•Written May 2025What is your policy in the event they need to change the dates?
Rabbie’s Small Group ToursOperator•Written June 2025As a guideline, we recommend that you're able to: Walk short distances (at least 2.5 km at a time) to reach and explore viewpoints, town centres or attractions. Navigate uneven terrain, hills, and stairs. Climb on and off the mini-coach independently, several times a day. Lift and carry your own luggage for short periods (e.g. to and from your accommodation).

Thomas
Asked on May 27th, 2025Is the sheep dog demonstration available on this tour? What hotels are available for this tour? How crowded is the bus when it's full? Is it uncomfortable when full? Truthfully please.
- Rabbie’s Small Group ToursOperator•Written May 2025
As for your questions, we do not offer tours containing any sheepdog demonstrations. We usually book either hotels 3*, located centrally at each location, or B&Bs, for the more cosy, local atmosphere. Both accommodation types are always booked with breakfast included, either cooked or continental. Regarding our buses, we travel in 16-seater Mercedes mini-vans. Personally, I find them quite comfortable for shorter tours, and a bit stuffy on longer trips. However, the good thing about our tours, are the frequent stops, allowing passengers not only to stretch their legs, but also to grab a wee snack, go for a cup for tea, or snap a few stunning photos.

Asked on May 20th, 2025Are there washrooms on your small group coaches?
- Rabbie’s Small Group ToursOperator•Written May 2025
Although there are no toilets aboard the tour bus, our driver-guides make regular comfort breaks for you to use the bathroom facilities if needed.

- Rabbie’s Small Group ToursOperator•Written May 2025
You should be able to see a few pictures of some of the locations you will visit on the Tourradar website. In terms of accommodation, we have a number of different suppliers we work with on this tour and we book for you depending on availability on your chosen travel dates. This tour spends 1 night in Galway and 3 nights in Killarney. Some example hotels include Ashgrove Guest House, Desota House B&B, Western Hotel, Hyde Hotel in Galway and Kingfisher Lodge, Ashville B&B, Fairview Hotel, McSweeneys Arms in Killarney. Please note we are not able to guarantee you a certain location as it depends on what is available on your chosen dates.

Lisa
Asked on April 10th, 2025Are your prices based on single or double occupancy
- Rabbie’s Small Group ToursOperator•Written April 2025
We can offer you either accommodation options, and the price of the package changes depending on your choice. If you are booking for 1 person we would book you the single room option, and if there are 2 of you then we can book either the double or twin room option. Our prices also change depending on the time of year you want to book.

Kelly
Asked on April 7th, 2025When booking the hotel option instead of B&B for accommodations, is transportation to and from provided? Or is transportation to and from just provided for B&B.
- Rabbie’s Small Group ToursOperator•Written April 2025
The driver-guide for your tour will pick you up and drop you off from your accommodation on each day of the tour. This is the same whether you book the B&B or Hotel package.
- M
Molly
Asked on March 19th, 2025Do you have scheduled tours? We hope to visit Ireland in the fall. It would just be my husband and me. We were hoping to join a small group. Is this something you offer?
- Rabbie’s Small Group ToursOperator•Written March 2025
Yes we offer scheduled tours! These are conducted in 16-seater mini-buses led by our experienced driver-guides. All the Rabbie's tours you see on the Tourradar website follow this pattern.

Greg
Asked on March 11th, 2025Do you recommend a B&B stay or a hotel for two adults? Is breakfast included in either?
- Rabbie’s Small Group ToursOperator•Written March 2025
The hotel option is slightly more expensive than B&B option, but both would provide breakfast on the morning of each day. B&Bs tend to be smaller family run guest houses with only a few rooms, whereas Hotels are larger operations usually with a bar and restaurant attached. If you are looking for the highest quality accommodation I would recommend you pick the Hotel option, and if you are looking for a more affordable option you an pick B&B.

Monique
Asked on March 3rd, 2025I have a question. I don't see any hotels listed…do we book them ourselves? We like 4 star accomodations.
- M
Monique
Traveler•Written March 2025What about accommodations.? Do we book them… we need four stars.
- Rabbie’s Small Group ToursOperator•Written March 2025
If you book through TourRadar, accommodation will be included, you will just have to choose between B&B and Hotel. Unfortunately, we are only able to accommodate in 3 star Hotels, as those are the ones we have allocation with.

Keith
Asked on February 11th, 2025What are the difference between Hotel B&B and hotel accommodations? I'm a solo traveler.
- Rabbie’s Small Group ToursOperator•Written February 2025
B&Bs are traditionally small family owned and run properties offering a handful of guest rooms. They are usually residential properties, so they tend to be located on the outskirts of towns and you should be prepared for a 20-30 minute walk to local facilities like pubs and restaurants. It's unusual for a B&B to offer any additional services like concierge, porterage, evening meals or room-service. Wi-fi is usually, but not always available and it's worth bearing in mind that access can be unreliable in more remote locations. If you have difficulty with stairs, please request a ground-floor room as lifts will not be available in this type of property. Hotels vary in size but tend to be larger properties run by a team of staff. They usually have a relatively central location but may be up to a 20-30 minute walk from local facilities. They are often housed in traditional old buildings and bathrooms are always for private use and are typically en-suite.
