Wonderful day out in the countryside. - We traveled in January so while it was a clear day, it was still very cold especially in the morning. We were dressed for it though. We liked the falls and the walkway at Glendalough was nice too, just cold and no place to warm up. Ate at food trucks, which was good but again had to sit outside so it was chilly. Our favorite part was the Sheepdog demo. The sheep farmer was very personable and the dog very smart!

A wonderful small-group tour around Ireland — clean, comfy bus, friendly guide, and stunning views. The sheepdog demonst - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had such a great experience sightseeing around Ireland! The tour was small and personal, which made it even better — it never felt crowded or rushed. The bus was spotless, super comfortable, and the driver was so friendly and knowledgeable. It really felt like we were being shown around by a local friend rather than just another tour guide. One of the highlights was watching the sheepdogs at work — so impressive and heartwarming to see how they handled the sheep with such skill! I loved all the stops and the beautiful views — such a perfect way to explore Ireland! Highly recommend. 🍀

What a great experience.... - What a great experience. The waterfall was beautiful and the national park was gorgeous. The sheepdog demonstration was a unique experience. It was great to learn from the farmers. Andre was our bus driver and tour guide, he was a delight and very knowledgeable.

In order to completely... - In order to completely experience this tour you have to be able to walk quite a distance at the waterfall and monastery. However you could see the falls from a distance and you can pay extra to watch a 15 minute film so you don’t miss out completely. The sheepdog display was fun and you can experience all of it.

Hampered by rainy weather... - Hampered by rainy weather not the tours fault of course, but hadn't been made aware the hotel near the monastic ruins was closed for the month so no place for a meal on the lunch stop. Otherwise Brilliant with the waterfall and sheepdog demo. Great for a step out of the city of Dublin to the countryside when you don't want a 12 hour expedition

You shouldn’t expect much... - You shouldn’t expect much from this tour. The waterfall is decent, but if you’re looking for a longer walk, the lake is a better option. If you’ve been to Australia, the sheep demonstration there is much more engaging. They guide you through the process of putting the sheep into a cage using a dog in a small field. There’s no demonstration on how to cut the wool, buy the goodie, or purchase yarn.
