Southern Ireland Tour Companies

The organization around the trip was very poor in the first few days.

Great experiences, quality hotels and outstanding tour guide and driver

Travel Director and Driver were excellent. The coordination of logistics was superb. The only negative is the schedule didn’t allow sufficient “free time” at some stops, particularly in Gulway.

I thoroughly enjoyed this tour. The tour was well organized, informative and fun. The small group size was definitely a plus. It allowed the group to interact well. Our guide was knowledgeable and engaging. Highly recommend this tour.

The tour offered good value for money. It delivered on the promised itinerary and provided a good insight to the culture and history of Ireland.

A truly wonderful experience! We covered the itinerary and more! Our driver Vincent had a great sense of humour, provided a lot of information, personal stories about places, got us ahead of the weather and all the other tour buses to get the most of our experience! The accommodations were great and the ride was very comfortable. Will definitely do another tour with Rabbie’s/Tour Radar again.

Great tour with a very knowledgeable guide! Stephanie had lots of local insight and did an excellent job pointing us to the most worthwhile sights and experiences. The tour hit some great highlights of Western and central Ireland. I do wish we’d had a few more hours to explore Galway. We were there 2 nights but got back too late to do much.

Tour was professional, informative and fun!

I could not say enough goid things about Janette. She was well organized, kept us all awsre of what we could expect, extremely knowledgeable, and well informed of yhe history of thevplaces that we went to. The only complsint was one of the side events that we went to was very hard for my wife to climb and we were not made aware of that ahead of time when it was too late to do anything about it. Also the schedule was a bit hectic on older people and several of us were complaining to each other about being worn out about the fifth day. The bus driver was very good at driving but not very friendly at all.

Michael did an outstanding job! We covered quite a bit in a short time! He was quick to help out when needed!

Really nice! It was just a taste of the island and the people. I liked the small group. Our driver / guide was very good.

Great trip. Our guide Diarmuid was excellent and took real good care of us. We had been to Ireland before and this trip had a good itinerary that was not a repeat of all the standard places on an Ireland tour. It was nice to have a small group so that we could get to know the other people on the tour. Our tour was the Wild South small group tour.

Im from Ireland and lived away for 30 years. I’ve been back to visit family but this is the first time doing some tourist stuff. Absolutely fabulous experience.

luke was amazing he bought the history the culture to life, above and beyond other guides

Amazing person and tour leader all around! Definitely highly recommended and well deserved

Best tour guide, best driver

We really enjoyed our tour, everything was well organized, on time and memorable! Our drivers and guides were very professional.

Our tour guide Robert was great! tours operator did a wonderful job. We had a great trip.

Well organized. Good hotels and good food. Nice guide and driver. A nice trip.

Overall we enjoyed the trip

Walking to and from train/bus station with luggage is not for everybody... Guide was not local.Accommodation was fine but more like ** or ***.

Awesome tour, well organized

Great experience ! Well organized and amazing tour guides. In 5 days tour of the Great Atlantic, we were able to see the “Must see” Hotels were clean and well situated to center cities. We would definitely recommend this Railway Tour Ireland to friends & families.

The 10 Day Irish Experience Tour exceeded our expectations. The smaller group is the best way to tour for all involved including the Tour guide annd 10 days was anbout right for the agenda. Our tour guide Leigh Jones was also exceptional. He ensured every need of each of us was met and usually before we needed it. He literally was the “perfect” Irish Tour Guide. There was no situation or change in our agendas that he could manage and usually anticipated it. As for his knowledge of local & National Irish History Inbelieve he could teach it at a college. I think I could speak for the whole group when I say that Leigh was the reason the Tourvexceeded our expectations. Leigh is truly an “asset” to this Tour Company and an outstanding representative of Ireland. Highly recommended.

The Seven Day Atlantic Way Experience - Small Group Tour was amazing! We visited several small towns and villages, and Killarney National Park. Also saw spectacular beautiful views, including Cliffs of Moher and the Dingle Peninsula. We also viewed a sheep dog demonstration on a working farm. I learned a lot about Irish history and culture and really enjoyed my time in Southwest Ireland. Our tour guide, Sean, went above and beyond expectations. Sean also made travel arrangements for me when I discovered I had made an error on my return itinerary. The guide, meals, transport, and accommodations were all excellent. I highly recommend this wonderful tour and cannot wait to go back. Thank you Sean!

I was very impressed by how flexible the team was in helping me customize my inter-rail tour, adding days at each end, for an additional fee. The accommodations varied between nice hotels in the heart of Dublin and Belfast, a cozy B&B cottage in Killarney, and a couple of spartan college dorm rooms in Cork and Galway. Most of the accommodations were a solid 15-minute walk from the train station or city center, discouraging a lot of back-and-forth between day and evening events. Every single one of the rail tickets was accurate and the trains ran on time, and I had assigned seats. With at least three days in every city, I had time to see most of the major attractions, and managed to work in several all-day sight-seeing excursions through other tour operators. Thanks to TourRadar, I was able to see a vast amount of gorgeous Ireland. If you like to travel alone, develop your own itinerary and have dependable transportation and accommodations worked out for you in advance, this is the package for you!

Well planned itinerary leaving little stress to planning next move but flexible enough to tweak things up to fit your scand preference. I had issues with luggage and airlines and although the access interailing packages had to impact my issues was limited to none, they were available, empathetic and offered suggestions to consider. Have already recommended this site and operator to others. Thank you for the part you played in this memorable experience!

Many of the booked visits were cancelled due to the businesses being closed (poor research planning on the tour operators part) others were not as described or turned out to not have been properly reserved and paid in advance. Lodging was random and not logically booked in line of travel. Messages to BTours have gone unanswered. Will not use them again.

Very good communication; loved the excursions and the choice of hotels!
