Bus broke down twice! Once before we got to Blarney Castle at which time the other tour bus had to pick us up to take us to the castle. We broke down again after leaving the castle even though a mechanic had shown up and supposedly fixed the bus. Paddywagon has not replied to our request for a partial refund. Paddywagon did not even send a reply email with their apologies. We got to see Blarney Castle only. The rest of the tour was cancelled and we were returned to port. Would not recommend using this company!!! Paddywagon knew this bus was in poor mechanical condition and sent it out on a tour.

I was on the paddy wagon tour from Dublin to Giants Causeway. Just after we departed Giants Causeway a tractor hit the bus and blew out every window. Although the tractor was mainly to claim the bus was over the line. After this accident everyone of the 52 was covered in glass. The crash happened at 2.30 and after taking us to a local pub ( where we had to pay for our own food) it took 5.5 hrs for one bus arrived to take half of us and the second didn’t arrived till 9.30!!! We were covered in glass from head to toe. Overall we arrived back at midnight instead of 8pm, and entirely missed one stop promised on the trip. When asked for a refund PaddyWagon refused and failed to take any responsibility for their lack of response following the accident.

Brilliant company, staff friendly and helpful, pick up point very close to hotel ( within a few minutes walk) Tony our driver was careful and considerate. Tim our guide was very knowledgeable and had a great sense of humour. Great places visited , given enough time in each stops to go your own way or just to sit and have a coffee and watch the world go by. The trip to Blarney was well worth it , we arrived early and beat the crowds. A must as it can get very congested and you’ll have to wait in a very long queue to kiss the stone.

This was a bus ride It was not a tour. I could’ve booked a bus myself and gone to the locations for a lot cheaper. There was no commentary while we were on the bus explaining the places that we’re going to and some history behind them. I have travelled extensively and been on many chores. This was the first one that the bus driver didn’t speak at all, and there was no other person on the bus giving commentary about the locations we were going to. The bus driver didn’t even know the name of the cathedrals. I really don’t think he likes Ireland that much either as when we went by a castle he said I can slow down if you want to take a picture of a castle but there’s like 30,000 of them in Ireland. Also the tour company should’ve confirmed that the titanic Museum would be available for us if it was closed for private touring that day so we had an hour and a half doing nothing in Cobh as majority of the places were closed early or closed on Tuesday. I wish I could get my money back and I’m not recommending this company with any of my friends were planning on visiting Ireland.

Highly, highly disappointed. We did the Blarney, Cobh and Kinsale. We didn’t have a guide all he said was don’t eat on the bus come back to the parking lot at 12 when we arrived at Larney. This is a tour. This is a bus to take you places and you can get a lot cheaper if you just do it yourself. How is this tour still around and how do they employee people that aren’t Irish can hardly understand them, and they don’t talk at all on the bus they’re not giving you any type of information regarding where you’re going. All of us on the bus, we were thinking the same thing we thought he would be telling us some things about Barney Castle before we get there no nothing at all .

While it was a nice tour, and had some nice scenery, I was thinking there would be more. Just a lot of repetition of the same scenery...farm, cows, sheep, farm, cows, sheep. The bus was super crowded. When they stop for lunch, there is only one restaurant so everyone has to eat there. The only thing that was priced decently was the soup.

Amazing day with a great guide. Bryan our guide kept us entertained all day long with his amusing stories. We got to kiss the Blarney stone which was an experience and visited a lovely village for lunch. It's an ideal excursion if you are coming off a cruise ship

We had a fantastic time, we saw the Giants Causeway, Dulvace castle ruins, birch trees and Belfast, all in one day. Alex our tour guide/driver was very informative, fun and explained the troubles before we drove onto Belfast with honesty and an unbiased opinion. Thouroughly recommend it!

Fabulous day touring CORK city. Highly recommend this company. Our driver was exceptional. Very friendly and charming. Look no farther... this is the tour company you should use!!!

The Wild Kerry Day Tours, Killarney, CO. Kerry. Ireland is a company that knows how to please tourists. The buses are clean and comfortable, with big, clear windows and skilled local Drivers. Our Driver and Guide was Dave Mermion. His knowledge ,stories, and sense of humor were amazing. Thanks to him we got familiar with the beautiful places in the Ring of Kerry tour and tasted such delicious food in the local hospitable restaurant. Dave is an intelligent and safe Driver.

The reviews for Paddywagon were so good at the time I booked this excursion. I am not a complainer and leave only positive reviews. Brian was the best Guide! However the Paddywagon bus broke down at the very beginning of this excursion. We were only able to participate in 1.5 hours of a scheduled 6-7 hour excursion at over $100 per person. Paddywagon refuses to consider even a partial refund. Brian needs to change tour companies. He was great for the 1.5 hours that we spent with him. Paddywagon never again!

First, the plusses. Blarney Castle and grounds are amazing and easily worth more than the allotted three hours. Kinsale is also a beautiful coastal town. Now the less positive. When arrived at pick up location the person at the Paddywagon Tours office just gave a general gesture of where we should be picked up and the communication was not clear at all. It would have been easy to miss the bus, which another couple did, after waiting for more than an hour at what they believed to be the designated pick up spot. We only know this because we overheard them at Blarney Castle trying to find someone who could help them find our group. We connected them with our driver, but the tour was overbooked and they were not able to join us for the rest of the tour. They were refunded but were leaving the next day and the woman was left in tears. Not great. In terms of Kinsale, beautiful town but with just 45 minutes to explore it, including lunch, and no pre-arranged food it was pretty rushed. Same was true of Cobh. By the time we arrived, anyone wanting to experience the Titanic museum had just 30 minutes before it closed. Guide and driver were good, just overall logistics and planning were not. Recommendation would be to arrive early make a day of it at Blarney Castle - skip the rest or plan a separate, less rushed time to visit Kinsale and Cobh.

Absolutely delightful driver/tour guide Kevin! He was informative, helpful, and made our excursion very memorable. The Irish countryside was lovely, and we enjoyed Blarney Castle. Kevin made the trip wonderful!!!

Excellent trip, thought all the hype beforehand would lead to a disappointment but it didn't. The scenery was outstanding albeit helped by wonderful sunny weather. West Ireland isn't renown for being so obliging! Loved every part of the trip aided by a knowledgeable guide. The guide even managed to get a struggling coach back to Cork City despite a major computer malfunction and keep us in reasonable spirits regardless.

Purchased 6 tickets for the small bus tour of the Cliffs of Moher for the 26th of August. When we arrived at the pick up location we were told that the small bus was not in service. The tickets for the small bus tour was $129.00 and the regular tour bus was $75.00. I have sent 2 emails requesting to be refunded $54 for each ticket we bought for the small bus tour. Is there anyone out there that thinks Paddywagon made this right? No, they did not. They won't even respond to the emails sent. PSA DON'T USE PADDYWAGON.
