Reviews for Wild Rover Tours

A sampler platter of Ireland city life, the great outdoors, and rural life

Liam gave us a tour filled with storytelling, personal experiences, and singing traditional songs. He was informative and entertaining and clearly passionate and proud Irishman. Marco kept us safe along the way through the mountains and on country roads. Kilkenny was a city that had so much too see historical sights mixed in with modern businesses, Glendalough was beautiful park, and the sheep herding was a great way to top it off and see the sheep and herding dogs in action.

AMAZING people and AMAZING experiences

My mother and I had Liam and Marco for the Kilkenny tour and they were absolutely amazing. Marco was a fabulous driver. We felt very safe the whole trip and the ride was very steady. Liam was the best tour guide ever. Very intelligent as he gave many facts during his tour while still being very entertaining. On the bus, we laughed, we sang, and we had an amazing time. This has been the best tour I’ve ever been on and I would highly recommend it to anyone that visits Ireland.

The tour guide, David,...

The tour guide, David, was awesome with history and knowledge along the way. The driver Sara, was also awesome navigating the bus along the wild Atlantic way!

Absolutely recommend this tour!

I would absolutely recommend this day tour - the length of the bus ride is worth it given the experiences and sights. I chose the political black cab tour in Belfast (instead of the Titanic experience) and it surpassed my expectations - our driver was incredibly open and honest in sharing his personal (though sad) experiences and telling us about the current situation in the city. The views along the North coast were the most impressive in the whole of Ireland in my opinion and I quite liked the walk along the cliffs to reach the Giant's Causeway. I found the "causeway" itself a bit underwhelming but would still recommend visiting for the amazing views. There was time for lunch at the Giant's Causeway (two options which are both - surprisingly - both very good and not tourist-trappy). Our guide on the bus (Daniel) was fantastic, gave a lot of interesting and useful information and made the bus ride go by very quickly.

Day in the country

Our whole day was great with Liam as our guide and Marco driving ! Great stories, perspective and information on Irish life, past and present. The Sheep farm experience will be an unforgettable experience for me getting to hold. a baby lamb!

Entertaining and Informative

Stephen O’Malley as our tour guide made this trip unforgettably enjoyable. We didn’t realize how lucky we were to take a Wild Rovers tour with both a driver and a tour guide until we took a Paddy Wagon tour the next day with just a driver who talked when he wasn’t in traffic. Galway was the highlight of the trip for us - such a gorgeous city. The Cliffs of Moher were breathtaking. There were plenty of opportunities to use a restroom on the full day trip. Remember to bring waterproof jackets since the weather can change quickly.

Last day, best day!

If you’re thinking about booking this, just do it! Liam was born for this. I’ve never had a tour guide quite like him - in the best way! He made the day so much fun. The scenery was breathtaking, the ride was smooth, and we got a chance to meet some great folks along the way. Marco is a great driver and he gets in on the fun too! Overall, a very unique experience and I hope you all get to experience it!

Wonderful tour!

Exceptional tour! Everything ran like clockwork. Marco was our driver and did an amazing job. Our host was Liam who was extremely knowledgeable and funny as feck.

Absolutely recommend this tour!

I would absolutely recommend this day tour - the Cliffs of Moher are definitely worth a visit and Galway is a nice city to visit as well. I think the length of the bus ride is worth it given the experience and sights, however, if you would like to really explore Galway, it would maybe be recommendable to spend a few nights there instead (i.e. there was enough time for lunch and a bit of walking down the main street and sights, but I could have easily spent a few hours more there). That said, I would absolutely recommend this day tour and our guide on the bus (Eve) was fantastic and gave a lot of interesting and useful information.

A fabulous day

Liam (&Marco) made the day extra special. Liam is knowledgeable & funny. He’s still working on his singing but it was good enough on the day 😀 A fabulous day. I highly recommend it.

Highly recommend!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ From start to finish, this tour was absolutely amazing. The Cliffs of Moher were breathtaking, and exploring Galway gave us such a charming taste of Irish culture. What made the day truly special, though, were our guides, Daniel and JP. They were not only knowledgeable and insightful, but also made the journey engaging and fun with their stories and humor. Everything was well organized, the pacing was perfect, and we never felt rushed. I came away with both stunning memories and a deeper appreciation for Ireland’s history and beauty. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Ireland – it’s an unforgettable experience!

Cliffs of moher

We travelled as a group and everything with the booking was really easy. They also made sure we could all sit together on the same bus. From the booking side I must say, very well done – and the tour itself was also really beautiful.

Super tour>>Irlanda del Nord

Super gita in Irlanda del Nord: Dunluce Castle, Giant's Causeway e un salto nella storia. Grazie a Micy, il nostro taxista, che ci ha portato, con il suo black cab nei luoghi che furono teatro della dolorosa questione irlandese, raccontandoci i fatti. Non di meno un grazie a Dave e Billy, guida e autista del pullman; tour organizzato in maniera eccellente, lo consiglio sicuramente.

We took the tour that included the beautiful little town of Kilkenny and the demonstration of sheepherding with a few other stops for nice photos, and we were completely delighted with the entire tour and experience. It was better than a similar tour we did in Scotland before visiting Dublin. It started with the comfortable full-size bus, which was much nicer than the passenger van we did our other tour with. I only wish there was a toilet on the bus, but there were enough stops with bathrooms that it didn't become an issue. Our guide Elisa was a delight, with quick humor and very knowledgeable about Irish history. She clearly wasn't just repeating some memorized information. Our driver, I think named John, did a great job with all the driving, including on some narrow country roads, so it was nice to relax and all we had to do was get off the bus. Before the different stops, Elisa gave us a run-down and showed us all some information we could take pictures of, such as her recommendations for meals in Kilkenny. I loved Kilkenny and could have spent the full day there. Elisa gave us a great walking tour and then we still had time to look around the town and visit the centuries-old church. If I'm ever in Dublin again I decided I want to take the train to Kilkenny and spend more time there. We saw beautiful Irish country scenery and everybody loved the sheep herding demonstration with a delightful longtime farmer who told us about his dogs and how he trains them. The cute dog rounded up the sheep so well on whistle commands and it was fascinating to watch. My friend was delighted at the chance to briefly hold one of the cute little lambs there after the demonstration. The price of the tour was also very reasonable, about half of what we paid for a similar tour in Scotland. And we were back in Dublin early enough to have dinner at a nice restaurant on our last night in the city. Elisa told us about some of the other tours she does with Wild Rover. I definitely would have taken more tours if we hadn't had to leave Dublin the next day. She is a superb and informed guide, enthusiastic and fun and obviously enjoys her job. Thanks, Elisa and John. We had such a great time thanks to you. A highlight of our two-week vacation.

Our trip to Titanic and The Giant’s Causway was inhanced by our tour guide Elisa. She was knowledgeable and added much humor to our trip. Our driver John was not only funny but he navigated through some tough curves. I would not mind going on another trip with them.

Wonderful experience. Our crew of Elisa and John were both informative and friendly. They made a long day pass quickly with great pleasure.

Tour of Cliffs of Mohar with a visit to Galway. In a word, Spectacular. The tour guide Rory was knowledgeable and welcoming. I loved his sense of humor. Marco, did an amazing job getting us safely through some crazy traffic and challenging road conditions. I simply don't know how he does it. It was like the bus was simply an extension of his body and no turn too tight or road too narrow - and all while running on a tight schedule. Respect to you my friend! Break stops were well placed and everything well organised. The sights were beautiful and recommendations for food from Rory were spot on. Had the best meal of our trip to date in Galway based on where he pointed us. We just booked our next tour with Wild Rover for tomorrow! Looking forward to it!
