Our tour day with this company did not start off well or as we expected. I won't go into the details of that because the way Damian rectified the situation wiped any ill will from our minds immediately. We ended up spending a magnificent day in his company and learned so many wonderful and interesting things. Damian, our family thanks... More

We chose this company because of Tripadvisor reviews. We booked a full day tour and much to our surprise after the castle tour we backtracked to Dublin city center to pick up tourists who had signed up for 1/2 day tour. Our morning drive was spent with driver/guide who felt the need to expound on his personal political views, his... More

I really enjoyed the Wicklow glendalough day trip but found our tour guide to be a bit unenthusiastic. Wish we could have gotten out of the bus and explored a little more. The sights were incredible and a good pace for the adults on our trip but probably wouldn't recommend this tour to college aged kids.

During my last trip to Dublin, I wanted to do a day out to the Boyne Valley to see Newgrange and some of the other sites in the area. From my initial research, Day Tours Unplugged stood out from its competition in a very clear way. In the same amount of time (roughly 8 hours), this tour went to only... More

Went on three of unplugged tours in 2011 and took a friend this year to the Glendalough tour. Had Martin again and once again it was fantastic! The tours are smaller and very personable. Highly recommend visiting Mick the last vendor on the right side at Glendalough. He too is wonderful. Just tell him Holly says hello.

Tour guide Martin picked us up promptly at 0820 for a half-day Malahide Castle tour immediately followed by a half-day Wicklow and Glendalough tour. Martin's knowledge, good humor and professionalism were first rate. He left us in the good hands of a Malahide Castle docent to learn about that beautiful estate but guided us in the Wicklow Mtns and during... More

With Day Tours Unplugged, I guarantee that you will have an exceptional tour! As independent travelers, my husband and I rarely take organized tours because as everyone knows, it can be such a hit-or-miss situation; low information/poor guide, bad itinerary, last-minute cancellation, inattentive & straggling tourists etc. However with Day Tours Unplugged, you will encounter none of these negatives....only an...

Our tour guide was Martin. He is very knowledgeable, friendly and humorous. The half day is just what we needed given our short time in Dublin. The views are beautiful and relaxing. Shows you just a small piece of the country side.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review, I have passed on your kind comments to Martin. As a family run company, we will always put passenger safety first. The weather is crazy currently, sure coming from Scotland yourself, you are very used to snow and ice. Its crazy to think that this time last year in March... More

This was an awesome tour. Our guide was excellent. Informative, friendly, accomadating. We did a half day tour because our time was limited. It was just enough to see the Wicklow mountains and the breathtaking lakes in Glendalough. Our guide Damien was fantastic.
