Absolutely recommended and perfectly organised - Great tour through the Wicklow Mountains National Park, a perfect opportunity to see landscapes, villages and historical points of interest difficult to visit autonomously and in the same day. Thanks to our guide Jim, everything worked smoothly, I enjoyed every moment of a great day.

Spectacular scenery and a fantastic tour guide! - My wife and I had spent 4 weeks travelling the beautiful Island of Ireland by car. For our last full day, we booked the Wicklow tour. It was fantastic. The drive out of Dublin was very interesting and the scenery of Wicklow, spectacular! Our tour driver, Patrick, was great! He clearly loves what he does, he's well researched, highly personable and friendly. Patrick is the quintessential Irishman, that you'd love to share a pint with, on his day off. Thanks Patrick! We travelled from Australia for this trip. Ireland exceeded our expectations, and our Wild Wicklow tour was the perfect way to end a remarkable trip.

A nice reprieve from the city - Today was great because we've been traveling independently - to be taken care of for a day was relaxing. Our driver/guide Ashley is a top bloke and has extensive knowledge about social, environmental, historical and political points of interest, in addition to fascinating anecdotes about the places we visited. We had a stop for morning tea, a long stop for lunch and a nice lengthy stop at the lakes in the Wicklow Mountains. There was a lot of beautiful scenery to see today.

Wicklow mountain - Beautiful tours and places nothing short of fantastic, times calculated quite well counting that unfortunately would never be enough for certain places. The driver and guide Anthony is a really nice person and nice presence. Definitely recommended

Wonderful experience, the guide Patrick very good - Beautiful experience, the guide Patrick very good, punctual and professional all the time. He always gave a lot of information continuously and precisely. I would also add that the guide accompanied us with his excellent explanations in all places, even where the guide was not expected. Beautiful visits and organized stopping points, even well beyond expectations. Great place where you can stop for lunch. Really recommended and thanks again to Patrick for this beautiful adventure in the wilds of Wicklow.

A tour with Niall - We explored Wild Wicklow Mountains - our Tourguide was Niall, he fulfilled every wish, there was no denial. Together with our fellows riding the bus, into the wastness of Ireland, no one stopping us. The information - history, culture, all of the lot, Niall surely knew a story for each single spot. Cruising over hills and trough the valleys, in between food and drinks for our bellies. Jokes and laughter - a trip full of humour, Niall a comedian in secret - so the rumour. Wild Wicklow mountains - this is the place to be, so much more to experience there, you will see! One last thing to say: If you want a tour with style, ask for him, the one and only - our tourguide Niall.

Beautiful, Well-Guided Tour - The tour was led by a gifted guide, Patrick, who told great stories, provided wonderful historic factual detail and context, and highlighted many famous music personalities in each area along the way, and even sangs that were part of those stories and history. The bus was comfortable, and safely driven by Patrick. And the views at each stop were beautiful. We really enjoyed every aspect of the trip, and the lively, entertaining work of our guide. I would recommend this tour for all those who enjoy beautiful places, enjoy walking to take in those places, and enjoy a well-guided tour.
