Great tour with a terrific guide - The tour was great, the time spent at each place was appropriate. But Our tour guide was first rate! Linda had historic facts, local knowledge and personal anecdotes that really made the day special. I would definitely book again with her.

Lovely day - I really enjoyed our little day trip, especially the afternoon. Powerscourt was okay, but the real treasure came in the afternoon. We had lunch in a lovely cafe in a tiny town, it was very cozy. Then we headed to Wicklow. We were very thankful for the weather, which allowed us to see everything. We love the Wicklow national park and of course Glendalough. Overall, if you’re not able or comfortable with getting a rental car, this trip is a great substitute

Great Tour Guide on a great tour! - It was a rainy day, but our tour guide and driver Ben made it a special day. He rearranged the itinerary to spend as much time during the rainy morning on the road rather than at the stops. Ben explained the history and significance of all of the sites and well as background of the Irish culture. By the time we got to Powerscourt, the rain had stopped and we were able to enjoy the gardens. Thank you to Ben for making this a special adventure.

Excellent tour! - The trip was everything we hoped it would be. Despite a lot of different tours leaving from the same place, our guide, Linda, found us all and we left on time. She was both informative and knowledgeable at every stop, and was so thoughtful when a picture opportunity was asked for, without inconveniencing the rest of the group. The choice and timing at each of our destinations was perfect. I would highly recommend this tour!

Great tour. - I think the price is fair since its a small group tour.All the spots that we were at is stunning.The lakes, the garden and the monastic settlement.The lunch at enniskery is good and the price is fair as well.Richard the tour guide is knowledgeable and gave us a suggestions to take the path to hike on.Only thing maybe is to give more time to hike the Glendalough to the lake especially if you want to go to the big lake.We were given an hr to hike it but by the time we were there , there is only like 20 mins left to go back so we can not enjoy a few minutes and take photos.We have to rush back and we saw people as well in our group that go back with out even seeing the big lake because of time shortage.Other than that the rest of the tour are wonderful.

Highly recommend this... - Highly recommend this small group tour. Powercourt garden was stunning, a couple scenic stops in Wicklow were also very much worth seeing. The upper lake in Glandalough is a must. Our travel guide Linda was fantastic!

Definitely recommend - Linda was a brilliant guide. Very friendly and informative. The tour itself showcased the area well with a variety of places highlighting the history of the County. I would definitely recommend this tour - close to Dublin and a relaxed pace with options to suit different interests.

See A Different Side of Ireland - This tour was unlike all the other ones I took on my trip, mainly because the smaller bus made it a much more intimate experience! We were able to take roads big buses couldn't imagine traversing, and I got to see a natural Ireland the big buses don't fully get to show, too. Our guide was Ben, such a nice man. He used to be the chief ranger for the Wicklow National Park, if I remember correctly, so his passion for the landscape and the little details of it really stood out. Powerscourt was relaxing and large, and Glendalough had one of the single most picturesque lakes I've ever seen! Small stops were made along the way, including at Enniskerry for lunch, the Guinness Lake, and the PS I Love You bridge, and I also made a great new friend because the group was so small. Highly recommend for a different but meaningful experience!

Going mobile/solo - Wear good shoes! And Have fun! ! Kevin was great, knowledgeable, funny, and made trip enjoyable. Knew a lot as about area we visited. Met some really nice people from all over. Lots of laughs! Love Powerscourt , but it is definitely not for the disabled or the “out of shape.” No ramps, rails etc. Still beautiful, and the best shops. I would highly recommend!.
