Traveler reviews
Our driver and guide,...
Our driver and guide, Phillip, was just great. He was a wealth of historical information and gave Many off the beaten track ideas of where to explore it Dublin!!
A Splendid Day at 3 Amazing Castles
Great all day tour that departs and returns from Dublin. Transportation is on a large coach bus which was comfortable and a nice way to see other parts of Ireland while traveling to the castles. The castles were really cool. The Rock of Cashel and Blarney Castle were my husband and I’s favorites. This tour is a great way to see all 3 of these sites within 1 day and it was nice to venture out of Dublin and explore other areas of Ireland. Jonathan M. was our bus driver and guide on the bus. He was a lot of fun and have great suggestions and instructions.
Castle Tour
This was a nice day, I just feel like we didn’t really learn that much overall. Our driver Stephen was knowledgeable on the facts he did provide while driving but the microphone is extremely outdated and cracked a lot so took away from him giving us pivotal info (no fault to him, he was great). They should revamp this tour to give less time at castles 1&3 and more time at Blarney (2). There was a short 20 min guided tour provided by a worker at castle 3, so that was a nice touch. Other than that, we were on our own to roam around castles 1&2. Also I overlooked the charging ports in the initial booking. The bus has only USB chargers and not USB-C, so be aware of that. I would recommend booking this day overall because for the price of the admission to the castles, plus what it would cost to drive all over, I think it is definitely a fair value.
If you love castles, this is a must
Our tour driver Phillip was part of the amazing experience. The castles were incredible.. such amazing history and beauty.. Very safe driving with a lot of knowledge. He made sure we all have a great time and we’re comfortable. I would highly recommend the tour
