What people love about Munster Tours
- Taste of Ireland (Tour C) - 5 Days/4 Nights
Eamonn was an excellent guide/driver. He was friendly, professional and entertaining. Our tour was especially fun because of him. The hotel staff at every stop was very helpful and friendly. We especially liked the breakfast at Grand Canal in Dublin, the hotel room at Killarney, and tea at Bunratty. Great trip!!
- 5-Day Escape to the South West Small-Group Tour from Dublin
We really enjoyed this tour. Good itinerary every day with stops timed to avoid long stretches on the bus. Our driver/guide was excellent and added a lot to the experience. The bus was comfortable and not too large (16 people max) which allowed us to go places that large coaches couldn’t. Highly recommended.
- 3-Day Dingle, Killarney & the Wild Atlantic Way Small-Group Tour from Dublin
Matthew gave an absolutely outstanding tour. There were several circumstances that could have made this tour a less than ideal experience: others cancelling travel due to the new COVID variant, Storm Barra, and the winter season. However, I had an exceptional time. Matthew is true student of history and had facts, figures, and stories spilling out of his head. He was personable, considerate, and thoughtful. Our conversations were rich and lively and I had a truly wonderful experience. I can't wait to recommend this tour to my family and come back one day to see more!
