Austin made our day a great one - We had such a great day with Austin exploring Connemara and Kylemore Abbey. Austin was a true pleasure who all six of us enjoyed. He was engaged, had great humor, gave us great history. He took time to be with us during the Kylemore tour and took a few of us to see the gardens and Church. He easily became part of our group, joining us for lunch and joining in our family banter! We felt extremely well cared for and attended to and would highly recommend.

Beautiful Day in the Connemara National Park - Our family enjoyed the half day trip to the Connamara National Park with our private driver DC (Sorin). We appreciated how he was able to customize our adventures that suited our interests; from stopping to feed the sheep to driving through Connemara National Park and especially visiting the beautiful Kylemore Abbey. We wished we would have booked a whole day tour with DC. There was just not enough time to hike to the top of Diamond Hill. DC was very knowledgeable about the surrounding areas we visited and also courteous, polite, personable and witty. We would highly recommend his tour to any families or groups of friends looking to enjoy the Ireland landmarks and local culture.

Fantastic - It was fantastic to see the countryside in the comfort of private van. We stopped at several locations and picture taking was great. Only downside was the driver, although professional was too quiet(only talked about views if we asked) and his primary language was Romanian, therefore there was miscommunication. We wanted to be back to cruise port by 4 pm, boat was leaving at 6 pm. At 4:15, we asked how close we were to the port and we were still an hour out. He thought we wanted to be back at 6 PM. We had a very quick ride back, and did make it at 5:15. It would have added some authenticity to the day if he was Irish, but overall so glad we did it.

Connemara Through a Local Lens - Joe was an exceptional tour guide! He brought us to all the breathtaking spots around Connemara, along with some of his personal favorites that added a truly special touch to the experience. His deep knowledge of the area—clearly second nature to him—shone through at every stop. What made the day even better was Joe’s warm and engaging personality. He was fantastic company throughout the tour and even helped capture some beautiful photos of my husband and me—something that’s not always easy when traveling as a couple. If you’re looking for a personalized, memorable experience led by someone who was born and raised in the area and can share the best stories along the way, ask for Joe. You won’t be disappointed!

Exceptional, Friendly, Informative and Five Stars to Bogdan and Connemara Chauffeurs - Bogdan was outstanding. He provided excellent information, was very friendly, and was an excellent guide. He provided best recommendations and tips for each stop and his van was clean, comfortable and comfortable driving. I was initially thinking of skipping the trip to Connemara from galway, but this turned out to be one of the best and memorable trips instead and I am so glad i decided to go with this private tour. My kids had lots of fun feeding the sheep, and I loved the glaciers and mountains and the very scenic drive on way to the castle, and kylemore estate. We were picked up from the train station, with 4 large bags which fit in the back, and were dropped off to our apartment in Galway. I highly recommend this company and tour to anyone. I will repeat any other destination with Bogdan and this company. Cheers!
