Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

In having only, a short time for the visit to Ireland, we chose to take the 7 Day Wild Atlantic Adventure small group tour. I can't say enough about Sean and Noel. They taught us so much about the history of the country and along the way showed us so many beautiful locations. The castles along the way were quite impressive and we really enjoyed the ones that we received a tour. When we got to the Cliffs of Moher and the visibility was zero, Sean felt so bad that he took us on an unexpected tour of the Kerry Cliffs which was so fantastic, that we all forgot about the bad day at the Cliffs of Moher. When we were in slow areas, Sean was great to have Irish music playing that actually came from the county of which we were in. We all loved that! And as a bonus, the nine of us on the bus all had a great time together and we all left having new friends that we all hope to see again soon! Make sure you take advantage of the horse and buggy rides when available. They are fantastic.

We booked the 13 Day Tour with Irish Experience based in large part on the company’s glowing online reviews from satisfied travelers and could not be happier with our decision. From the comprehensive itinerary to the personal touch of their small group format, this trip exceeded all of our expectations. Rather than treating us simply as customers, they embraced us as family. In particular, our expert guide, Anthony Dawson, was outstanding—knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and caring—the perfect combination. He and Sean Power (the owner) made our first journey to Ireland the vacation of a lifetime!

Our 7 day tour of Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way was outstanding! The land is breathtaking and the people were so welcoming. Anthony was our driver/guide and was funny, personable and full of knowledge about what we were seeing. He went out of his way to make things work for people with varied fitness levels. We really enjoyed the balance of tour activities and free time to mingle with the locals. The accommodations in every town were top notch. On most nights the 8 couples were split between 2-3 B&B's or hotels, but the coordination of everything was amazing. I can't think of a single negative to say, except that I wish we'd had more time in Killarney. The longer tours probably do. Don't worry... you can't go wrong with these folks!

We had a wonderful time on our tour. Lee was our driver and guide who was fantastic. Lee was kind, professional, a historian, he was an all around great guy, we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Our small group was a pleasure to be with and our accommodations were very nice. We would recommend Irish Experience Tours.

My husband and I recently went on a 10 day tour with Irish Experience Tours. We began in Dublin and crossed the country and began our nine nights in the town of Westport. What a delightful beginning, what a charming little village. Our first B&B was welcoming, friendly, and the accommodations lovely and very clean. The bed was comfortable. It was just the experience we were hoping for. And so it was in each town where we stayed in. The Irish people we interacted with were amazingly friendly, helpful and sincere. As for the places we saw… absolutely beautiful. Each day’s itinerary turned out to be a 5 out of 5.
The touring bus we were on was nearly new, with very comfortable seating, plenty of room to spread out if desired and panoramic viewing in every direction. And finally, our tour leader, Lee, who was also our driver, would be rated much higher than a 5 if that were possible. In the opinion of everyone of us on the tour, he was perhaps the greatest gift to have received. He truly work hard and succeeded at making the trip memorable, informative and just plain fun. We loved the experience and would highly recommend Irish Experience Tour for anyone thinking about a visit to Ireland.

We participated in the 10-day Wild Irish Experience. The actual tour included everything described in the promotional materials, but was in actuality much better. Our guide/driver for the tour was Anthony. He was OUTSTANDING and made our Irish experience the very best it could be. He was always willing to answer our questions - and we asked a lot of questions! The small group tour format made it wonderful coming to know our fellow tour participants - they were delightful and made the experience even more memorable. The tour bus was spacious and comfortable. Each of the B&B's we stayed in were comfortable and the breakfast fare was amazing. This was our first, and possibly our only opportunity to come to Ireland. It could not have been a better experience.

This was a great tour. Lee the guide/driver was wonderful and Sean the owner made sure all the details were taken care of. Lee is everything you'd want in a tour guide-- knowledgeable, entertaining, caring, and he provided the special touches that made this trip a pleasure. We had a wonderful group of people (young, older, family, friends and singles) and all thoroughly enjoyed exploring Ireland with Lee as our leader! I would definitely recommend Irish Experience Tours for anyone wanting to get a taste of the Irish countryside!

Sean was a perfect guide to have for our trip...knowledgeable, witty, and a great driver! He did a nice job of drawing people into conversation about the trip and what we were seeing. Sometimes it was challenging for me in terms of the amount of walking required...as I have an injury that affects my mobility. But Sean did his best to accommodate me by getting me closer to the site or checking to see if a wheelchair was available at certain locations. Lee drove us to our first location and was also an excellent gracious guide. I was grateful he allowed for a photo stop at Castlebar where my ancestors were from. That wasn't on the schedule...and meant alot to me!

Amazing from beginning to end! The excursions to Sheep Dog demos, Kingdon Falconry, Dingle Pennisula, boating in Killarney Park, e-bikes on the Gap of Dunloe, Knappogue Castle Medieval Banquet etc. were all amazing. Sean and Noel gave us a charming history of Ireland along the way. The bus was clean and worked so well for our family of 12.

This small group tour exceeded my expectations. Our driver, Lee, was amazing with his helpfulness, stories, sense of humour and professionalism. Each accommodation was clean and safe. We did countless adventures with no problems. I didn't want this tour to end. Thank you Lee & Sean for the incredible memories.
