Highly recommend this tour!!
This tour was one of the highlights of our Ireland trip!! We booked a private tour, just the two of us and our driver, James. James was FANTASTIC! He picked us up at our hotel promptly and we spent a jam-packed 10.5 hours touring around Dublin and as far south as County Wicklow. We truly felt like James was one of our best friends by the end of the day. James took us to all of our places of interest and had many great suggestions of other places to see. He also took lots of pictures of us along the way and shared them with us. James shared so much interesting information and history of Ireland with us. We truly felt like the day was tailored just for us and James gave us his full attention. We will certainly seek him out when we return to Ireland in the future!
