We arrived for our scheduled tour time and when our driver was 20 minutes late I called the company only then to be informed that not only had they changed the time for 1 hour later, it also was not the tour we had originally purchased. We asked for a refund of which they refused. The replacement tour that we were given was cheaper than our original tour so they would only give us back the cost difference. We had a group of 9 and we were disappointed because the reason we had purchased our original tour was the part that had been canceled; the aerial walkway views of Avondale. The replacement tour was also said to have included a walking tour with our guide through Hollywood but instead we were pointed to a hillside that a broken “Hollywood” sign lay on the ground. We did enjoy the Glendalough tour/visit but that was to have been part of our original tour. Our group wanted to cancel the “replacement tour” and requested a refund but was denied. We went because we didn’t want to lose all of our money. Just be aware that they can change your time and tour without notice and you still have will be charged.

Thank you so much Jonathan for this amazing tour. Great value for price, we had a long tour and discovered many things about Ireland. We loved when our driver sang 2 songs for us, namely Grace and the Rattling Bog, which I still have in my mind one month later! Great way to discover the history and culture of the Emerald Isle. Definitely recommend!

Sheepdog demonstration was fascinating and unique. Views of Wicklow, Glendalough were amazing. Would love to go back to Glendalough at a less crowded time of year. The tour guide was misinformed re:history. He told us the Book of Kells was drawn by children. No mention of the monks.. ?? Then in response to a question about when the “Priest’s House” at Glendalough was constructed, he said 1700s. The sign right in front of him clearly said it was erected in the 12th century, and this is kind of obvious given the history of the remaining structures. Very little history of the area given. Disappointing b/c other tours we have taken gave lots of fascinating (verified) info. The driver and guide were very nice but please fix the speaker system in the bus. The constant squeal and sharp tones it gave every time they spoke was incredibly annoying and painful on the ears.
