    Anthony Dawson is a historian, professional photographer who knew where we should take photos, musician; pairing music with the places that we were visiting.. Caring to our unique group of people all ages and nationalities. He could think outside of the box when traffic ruined our plans or weather, he had another plan. Very lucky to have him as my guide.

    Excellent trip. Loved the group size which ranged from 3 to 16. I was on the 13 day tour and we had 8&10 travellers join us. Sean was fabulous, funny, knowledgeable with a song and story for every occasion, and of course, pub recommendations. The accommodations were comfortable with great breakfast options. We saw a lot in 13 days but the pacing was just right. Remember it’s Ireland. Pack layers and always have a raincoat! Highly recommended.

    Beyond my expectations! Our tour manager, Sean, made the tour fun and exciting. It was indeed a full Irish experience with beautiful landscapes, lovely Irish music and dance, unforgettable hikes, wonderful historical buildings and stories. The tour ran very smoothly with right pace. I wish it could be a bit longer, like at least 2 nights for each stay. 😄 Highly recommended tour!

    The itinerary was packed full. Sometimes wished we had more time in places, but what to leave out? Loved it all! Great balance of free time and with group time. Kieran was very knowledgable, patient and kind. I really enjoyed the sheep dog demo, extra set up tours, very pleasant

    Perfect small group tour! Itinerary is well planned and guide is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. We were traveling with people from all over the world and we had a wonderful 13-day vacation! Accommodations and breakfasts were excellent and we had free time to venture out on our own. We also arrived in Dublin 3 days before our tour began, allowing us to do some sightseeing prior to our tour starting. This is a ‘must do’ tour for anyone planing to visit Ireland. By not driving, you can enjoy all the beauty Ireland has to offer! Let Sean do the driving! Thank you Irish Experience for the fabulous time!

    I joined the group from 18 to 30 April 2024. What a fantastic experience. It is "authentically" Irish experience. Sean our guide lugged everyone's luggage up and down the stairs in the accommodation provided - I really felt sorry for him. Sean also educated us on Irish slang and how to use it. Sean shared his local knowledge with the group. The places visited were great. The tour has a good spread of activities and "own time". I would highly recommend the tour to anyone, whether travelling solo like me, or as couples. The sheep dog demonstration was a highlight!
