Birthday trip to Ireland. - Outside of some crazy weather, the trip was amazing! Timely pick up from our hotel with a clean and comfortable vehicle. Our guide, Diana, was very knowledgeable of all the locations we visited. She ensured to allow time to shop and provided a great recommendation for lunch. My family would 100% work with this tour company again.

We felt like we were traveling with a friend! - We had a fantastic experience with our guide, Diana, in Ireland. From the very beginning, she was informative, flexible, and genuinely interested in making sure our trip matched exactly what we were hoping for. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone visiting Ireland and would book with them again without hesitation.

Relaxing, informative countryside tour - Great way to explore the countryside and get a taste of Ireland outside of Dublin. Diana is kind and extremely knowledgeable. She explained things on the drive as well as at each destination. We had plenty of time to explore for as long or short of time we wanted at each location. Recommend for anyone wanting a private tour.

An excellent tour experience with a wonderful guide - My husband and I spent a lovely day touring touring the Wicklow Mountains, Glendalough, Powerscourt with Diana, from Gateway to Ireland Tours. Diana met us promptly on time at our hotel in Dublin, in a very comfortable van, and opted to take a scenic route to our destination since we expressed an interest in seeing the countryside and experience the natural beauty of Ireland. Along the way Diana shared her wealth of knowledge on an impressively wide range of topics, able to discuss the geology, ecology, archeology, and history of the areas we visited, as well as sharing details of her own life living in Ireland. We traveled in late February and luckily had decent weather and the added benefit of enjoying most of the sites almost to ourselves, which was an added benefit. In addition to the sites, we stopped for a delicious lunch in Wicklow during the tour and we were sad when the tour came to an end. We had a great time on the tour, and with Diana, and would book additional tours with Diana / Gateway to Ireland Tours without hesitation (and plan to do so on our next trip to Ireland)!

Wonderful private tour! - My husband and I took this wonderful tour with Diana on our last day in Dublin and had a perfect time. I let Diana know that I was struggling with a knee injury and she was able to see to it that our tour accommodated me. The Powerscourt waterfall and gardens were amazing. The gardens were still blooming and actually have a handicapped walkway if need be. We had a delish lunch there. We also really enjoyed visiting the Glendalough monastic site and hearing details about the graveyard and all the buildings. The countryside drives were gorgeous too. A great day for us. Highly recommend

Excellent tour of Irish countryside in luxurious van with knowledgeable guide - We found Diana to be very knowledgeable about the history of Ireland and in particular Dublin and the surrounding countryside. Her new Toyota van was a very comfortable way to travel through the Irish countryside. We appreciate her choosing a local colorful Irish pub in Enniskerry near Powerscourt Estate where we enjoyed Irish whiskey and a few pints of Guinness!

Wicklow Mountains Day Tour - My husband and I had a truly wonderful experience on our private day tour of the Wicklow Mountains with Diana of Gateway to Ireland. Diana tailored our tour to the places we wanted to visit and the things we hoped to see, and made sure to accommodate all of our requests. Her knowledge, warmth, professionalism and flexibility made the day both enjoyable and memorable. We had such a great time exploring and learning about the area. We would highly recommend Diana of Gateway to Ireland to anyone visiting Ireland and will absolutely tour with her again on our next trip back to the Emerald Isle!!

Amazing and beautiful experience. - I would definitely recommend taking this trip for anyone who loves the outdoors. My guide Diana was extremely knowledgeable on wildlife, vegetation, history of the ruins, and hiking trails in the area. She also agreed to hike me up to the upper lake area even in a downpour because it was something I really wanted to see and experience. She provided alternative options on things we could do as well since the weather was not cooperating. She was friendly and polite, I look forward to scheduling up another experience the next time I come back.
