Reviews for Wild Rover Tours

I am going out of my way to not just leave reviews on Viator for each tour but to come review the company as a whole because it is so well deserved. We did all 3 of their signature tours: Wicklow/Glendalough, Cliffs of Moher, and Belfast. Every single one of these tours was out of this world, as were the tour guides. Sean Mc was an effortless storyteller and curated a vibe through music and personal experiences to immerse us in this experience. Brian was a historian who was so detailed and knowledgeable about the landscape and people. Una was a stand out. Her personal connection to the region, care and concern for every customer, and extent she went to educate and immerse us in the experience was exceptional. Every single one of these tour guides were outstanding ambassadors for not only the brand, but Ireland as a whole. They truly made our entire trip and we will miss each of them personally. Our bus drivers Podge, Colin, and John were huge assets to making us feel safe and cared for. These tours were so well organized and designed to curate a beautiful flow while maintaining the integrity of seeing the sites despite long drives. I’d recommend every one of these over and over again. Thank you to Wild Rover for their attention to detail, customer service, and investment in their staff. It’s so clear how much these people love what they do and that translates to customer experience.

Fantastic trip to Belfast and Giant's Causeway today with Una and Joe. A long day but so interesting and beautiful. Una shared stories of her own upbringing in Belfast before our walk with Barbara. Learned lots of facts. The castle and causeway were works of natural art. Her info and trivia were extra bonuses!

Oh hey hey hey, What a “Wild” Tour, Two weeks ago we went on a booked trip to the Cliffs of Moher and Galway. Early in the morning we boarded the bus and there was Stephen. Now, two weeks later, we still agree that Stephen is one of the best things happening to us while we were in Dublin. Throughout the day, Stephen blessed us with his many talents: telling stories, singing, joking - and with his charming way of existing, working his way right into our hearts. We wished we could have spent more time with Stephen (TELL HIM!!!) PS: Sarah coolest driver on earth.

My family’s first tour with Wild Rover is why we planned our second Ireland trip! Our second Wild Rover tour was just as exciting as the first! We went on the Black Taxi Belfast, Giants Causeway and Dunluce Castle tour. It was absolutely fantastic. Una and John were incredible- both very personable, friendly, and knowledgeable. Una presents a fantastic slide show throughout the tour on the screens which I loved! She was very organized and gave fantastic tips for each of our stops.

(Translated by Google) Well organized, excellent coach and good driver, good timing given the distance from Dublin. If you want to delve a little deeper, one day is too short. The guide is friendly, but without fluent English, it's difficult to understand. (Original) Ben organizzato, ottimo pullman e brava autista, tempi giusti data la lontananza da Dublino. Se si vuole approfondire un po' di più una giornata è troppo poco. Guida simpatica ma senza fluent english si capisce troppo poco

I went on the Cliffs oh Moher tour with my 3 friends and we had Josh and Sarah as our guides. Josh was so funny throughout the tour and he was very helpful with questions and gave us some really cool interesting facts about the places we were seeing and the country of Ireland as a whole. The tour is a great price and I had such a good time out at the cliffs.

Loved Giant's Causeway, chose black taxi option in Belfast

Giant’s Causeway- Giant’s Causeway is a must see if you are in Northern Ireland and I loved exploring and experiencing the site. The site will likely be wet so be sure you are wearing proper gripping shoes to be able to climb up onto the rocks safely and keep your hands out of your pockets to catch yourself if you do fall. It’s about a 15 minutes walk down to the Causeway and I highly recommend walking down then paying the 1 pound fee to take the tram back up to maximize your time. The visitor center is 16 pounds to enter and includes bathrooms and the gift shop- yes you must pay 16 pounds to get the privilege of spending more pounds. The gift shop has lots of local artist items and some absolutely delicious chocolates, but the actual education portion of the visitor center was a huge let down. I was hoping to learn about how the Causeway was formed- both the myths and the science behind it. The education portion is aimed at entertaining children while parents shop versus giving any educational knowledge to adults. If you want a clean bathroom and some pretty gifts pay to go in, but otherwise save your money. Dublin- I chose to do the walking tour of Belfast and was disappointed. The guide was very nice but we walked about 1 block from the start point to a pub, then turned around and walked back to the start point. The guide did stop and tell us a history of Ireland and Belfast but it came across as a long history lesson of the country versus actual information about the city or culture in front of us. I talked to people who did the Black Taxi tour option instead and they said it was great so choose that option. Now, the actual tour- Pros- Our tour guide Una grew up in Belfast and has person experience of the tumult the city endured which added invaluable depth to the tour experience. A highlight of the tour was the videos that Una would put on throughout the day that covered the history of Belfast, the myths of the creation of Giant’s Causeway, and even some Irish music videos. Una also had a wonderful info binder she passed throughout the bus that well laid out helpful information not just for each site and the overall tour, but for Dublin as well. No other tour I took in Ireland had videos or the info binder and I really appreciated both. Collin was a wonderful driver, level headed, and really personable on the tour. He even delighted us with singing an Irish song to us when Una wasn’t able to get the song to play on the overhead bus screens. Cons- The bus was not the usual bus Una nor our driver Collin used and while the seats were comfortable, none of the microphones were working- not the handheld bus mic nor either headset mic. This meant every time Una tried to say anything the entire day long tour she had to stand up on the bus and yell it to the participants. Una had a very hard tour as out of 37 participants only 3 of us were native English speakers, a handful were dually versed language speakers, and the rest of the tour was using it as a taxi to get from location to location. Those not interested in the tour would play music and talk over Una which was detrimental to the tour experience but they refused requests from Una to stop. The language barrier and frustrations of the day lead to several yelling incidents throughout the day between Una and participants, one such incident over a woman standing to switch seats while the bus was moving even had Una ordering Collin to pull the bus over on the highway which he declined to do. Throughout the day we are repeatedly told we must stick to the tour timetable and if you are late you will have to be left so the rest of the tour can continue. One gentleman failed to head this warning and was left behind on his black taxi tour. He angrily confronted Una on our first rest stop on the way home and a verbal argument broke out. Collin was able to mediate the argument and resolve it so the man would be allowed to continue riding the bus back to Dublin, but it made for a very uncomfortable rest of the evening for those of us on the bus. A small issue leading to larger issue, I really think a lot of the frustrations of the day would have been avoided if the microphone equipment had worked allowing for a smoother tour throughout the day and less need for frustrating communication attempts.

Cool tour

We had a nice time on the tour. Though, it was a bit crowded and overwhelming. To be fair, it was our first large group tour and didn't know what to expect. Beautiful drive and locations. The terrain at the Cliffs can be a bit challenging for some to walk.
