Educational, mystical, deep dive into Irelands underworld - Our tour guide and driver was Flann. Thank you to him, he made the day seem so short and you could listen to him for hours. Such a great story teller! You can feel his connection to the land. Would always do it again (and bring clothes to change since it is Ireland :))

An amazing day despite... - An amazing day despite the rain. Wear good walking shoes. Would have liked more time at almost every stop. Distillery was fun but could have skipped it for more time elsewhere.

Amazing! - This was a brilliant way to hit some major sites in the Boyne Valley. I paired it with another trip to Newgrange so I could really explore the area. Debbie was our driver and guide. She was fun and full of great stories and history. It was beautiful driving between the sites and the stops were spectacular! .

A lovely Day amidst the stunning backdrops - It was overall a very enriching experience !! The locations were well picked amid the serene Irish countryside. The itinerary was not stressful. Mathew was the most knowledgable & patient guide. He answered our questions & was aware of the needs of the different members of the group members.

Best boutique tour of Dublin surrounds and not the same Ole places - Really well organized and a bit off the beaten path, so great for avoiding crowds. They use a smaller bus and ecperienced guides. Highly recommended.

Well, it can improve - The places are impressive, very rich in history. The guide didn't provide any information, suggesting we go and read the information signs to learn about the place. The information on the posters presenting each site is very brief compared to the rich Celtic history. We believe the guide should have explained along the way what we would see and relevant information. The time allocated to each place seemed to be unnecessary. In conclusion, reading in advance about the places you want to visit can be a wonderful experience.

Not a happy camper… - Couldn’t go on the tour—the cruise ship couldn’t make port in Dublin due to having lines wrapped around its prop in Holyhead Wales. I had told them the day before the tour (when in Wales) that I didn’t think we could make the tour due to timing issues but they said no refunds. Then we learned the ship would not be landing in Dublin at all because of the tangled propeller. I told Viator all this several times, to different people, but have not had any substantive response about a refund given the ship couldn’t make port. Extremely frustrated with the company to say the least. They keep asking if I want to reschedule although I’ve written them several times that I’m on a cruise and CANT reschedule a trip to Dublin. It’s as if no one has read or understood one single thing I’ve told them. I even told them to contact Dublin to verify that the cruise ship did not in fact land.
