    Impressed by Ireland, disappointed by this event
    Review of: Wicklow Day Trip with Guided Walk Including Glendalough Tour from Dublin

    If there was something nice about this event, it was only Ireland. The vehicle that was used had worn-out tires not meant for an icy terrain, but we ventured out nevertheless, and got stuck on the Wicklow mountains in the freezing cold for an hour...More

    Review of: Wicklow Day Trip with Guided Walk Including Glendalough Tour from Dublin

    Our driver was Eoin who provided an extremely knowledgable, witty commentary whilst steering us around this beautiful part of the country. Well worth the money, Eoin, is a legend!,- great day out. Paul and Deborah England.

    Perfect organisation and guide

    The organisation and the guide was really nice. A good timing to discover everything, a minibus to discover the little place. To do without hesitation! Good price for this day!
