10/10 day exploring Ireland!
Loved this day trip out of Dublin! Our tour guide Paul was very knowledgeable and helpful. I appreciated the information and tips he gave us along the way. My favorite part was the sheep dog trial, but the whole day was fantastic. Kilkenny is now my favorite city I’ve visited in Ireland, and the Glendalough monastic site is stunning. This trip is definitely worth it. Our driver Krishna did a great job navigating traffic and getting us where we needed to go on time.

My wife and I selected Wild Rover. for the Belfast & Giant’s Causeway Day Tour. We’ve done similar day tours in Switzerland and Scotland (with Rabbie’s), so we came in with reasonable expectations. Unfortunately, this one fell short in a few key areas. We arrived early to board near the front and secured the second row—first row was marked for guests with accessibility needs, which we fully respected. However, at the second pickup, those seats were offered to late arrivals who weren’t mobility impaired. It was frustrating that despite arriving early for a better view, we weren’t even offered the option to move forward when the seats were reassigned. Felt like courtesy was lacking. The black cab tour in Belfast ended almost an hour before departure time, leaving us with nothing to do. We tried to board the bus early just to relax and wait—but were told to leave while the guide napped across several seats. Not exactly a welcoming atmosphere. Lunch didn’t happen until 13:45 for a tour that began at 7am, and although the food was decent, the late timing added to the fatigue. At Giant’s Causeway, which is stunning, there were no public restrooms—only those in a private restaurant. The guide told us to use them anyway but not to ask permission, which felt awkward and unprofessional. Most concerning: after leaving the Causeway at 15:45, we didn’t have another stop until 18:25. Wild Rover’s own website says “you’ll never be in the coach longer than two hours,” yet we went over 2.5 hours with no break. That’s not acceptable for a long, structured tour. Our guide, David, was friendly but commentary was minimal. Most of the drive was filled with music instead of background or storytelling like we’ve enjoyed on other tours. Only at the very end of the day did he walk the bus to offer suggestions for Dublin. This tour wasn’t terrible, but it definitely wasn’t up to the standard we’ve come to expect for small-group or full-day tours. With a few small adjustments—more professional handling of timing, seat assignments, and guest comfort—it could be a better experience. As it stands, we’d recommend looking at other options.

My wife and I took a tour of the Wicklow Mountains, Kilkenny and Glendalough. The trip could start earlier, touristic places could be given more time, especially taking photos can be challenging. It was a successful trip in terms of price/performance, our guide Caroline M. and driver Dermont were attentive. The route information on Getyourguide could be updated in the tour promotion. And also, My wife and I participated in the Cliffs of Moher, Galway and Atlantic Coast tour. Our guide Daniel was attentive, knowledgeable and very punctual, we thank him. We also thank him for sharing his memories of Istanbul and for his kind words about our country, Turkey. It was a nice trip in terms of price/performance, it can be preferred. A little more time can be spent at the sightseeing spots, especially for people who like to take photos, the time is short.

Our guide Ian and driver Marco were excellent ! ian went above and beyond to make sure all of our needs were met! He is very knowledgeable helpful, and the best guide I’ve encountered on any trip! The tour allowed the right amount of time in each location, of course the highlight was visiting the sheep farm and petting the lambs! I highly recommend this tour! Highlight of our time in Dublin!

Fabulous Experience!
My husband and I are celebrating our 15th wedding anniversary in Ireland. We booked several tours to explore the country. Dave was an awesome guide and very informative. Krishna was a fantastic driver, pretty incredible navigating the tight roads with a large bus! Dave and Krishna kept us on time going to each stop. We're very happy with our experience and would book again!

amazing tour
The tour was fantastic. You have roughly 2 hours in each destination which is just enough time to do a walking tour and castle tour of the small areas and even get a real quick take-away lunch. Our driver/guide combo was Dermot and Caroline and they were wonderful together. Funny, informative, and knowledgeable. Highly recommended!

A grand way to visit the Cliffs of Moher!
We took the day tour from Dublin to Cliffs of Moher and Galway with our guide Phil and driver Marco in June 2025, and it was a grand time! The Cliffs are so worth seeing! We were lucky enough to have a clear day and the views were amazing. One of the trails was blocked short due to dangerous conditions further on, but it was still awesome. The visitor center has lots of exhibits and a nice short "4D" video that are well worth checking out if you have time after seeing the trails, or if the weather isn't cooperative. The shops are touristy as you'd expect, but nice. It was a long ride, but Phil made it engaging with a combination of sharing his knowledge about the history and land and people of Ireland, with plenty of breaks for us to nap or read/knit/crochet. During the breaks, he played Irish tunes, loud enough to enjoy but soft enough to ignore if you preferred your own headphones. Marco was an awesome driver - it was such a smooth ride I barely thought about it, except for one point where another tour bus was going the wrong way along the Wild Atlantic Way (I guess that large vehicles normally all go the same direction to avoid this). Both buses stopped and the other backed up to a slightly wider spot where they could navigate past each other. I think the sides of the buses were within 30cm of each other as we went by, so I was very glad we had Marco at the wheel! By the time we got to Galway, all I wanted was to sit down and have a bite to eat. We decided on Handsome Burger, which was quite nice. I had the smashed burger and loved the texture and crispiness. (With a gluten free bun) The fries were good too, and in a dedicated fryer so I didn't have to worry about gluten cross contamination. We wandered a bit until it was time to board, but didn't have the energy to explore very far, so I can't say too much about Galway except it's beautiful and seems nice.

Great Food, Scenes, & People!
This tour was amazing. Steve the bus driver was so friendly and great. Took us on the most scenic route it was incredible. Matt the tour guy was outstanding! He was so funny and made the tour so fun and informative. He had so many stories, food and music recommendations and showed us around the city of Galway before letting us explore on our own. We almost didn’t want the trip to end. If you’re wondering if you should do this tour, its a MUST. Great food and even greater people. Thank you Matt and Steve for an amazing ride!!

Wonderful tour
Wonderful tour. Our guide had so many personal stories that related to the history of Ireland and Belfast in particular. We also loved being able to hike down to the giant’s causeway as well as explore the ruins of Dunlace castle. We opted for the Titanic Experience and it didn’t disappoint. Very moving.
