- JeffSSunnyvale, California1 contributionGolf Trip in IrelandPut simply, Dan is the best! From the moment our group arrived, he was the consummate professional, but also made you feel welcome and at home in his beautiful country and to his services. He is prompt, reliable and kept our group on track (which was often quite a task!). Just a pleasure to deal with in every regard. He is knowledgeable about sites/areas and often provided wonderful bits of history to make long drives more enjoyable. He will go above and beyond to make your trip truly memorable and special. No need to look anywhere else, book Dan and you won't regret it. I would happily use his services again.Thank you Jeff for taking the time to write such a complimentary review which is greatly appreciated. It was a pleasure to have accompanied you all for the week and am glad to have been part of your positive experience of Ireland. I enjoyed the laughter and fun that we had and hopefully we will meet again in the future.

- DANIELE HWissembourg, France473 contributionsMemorable experienceWe went on a bespoke tour with Dan a couple of weeks ago and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Dan was so welcoming and friendly from the moment he picked us up at Kerry Airport. We had quite a few requirements as our group of 6 friends included my dad (84) who needed his wheelchair for some times but this wasn’t an issue whatsoever. We couldn’t have dreamed of a better experience touring 1 week with Dan, discovering multiple counties of Ireland, from Southwest to Cork and cliffs of Moher….. Dan was always flexible, caring, professional but also joyful and funny. His knowledge of any aspect of Ireland is amazing. The tour was simply superb from beginning to end, and even after we thought we were finished, Dan took us to some interesting landmarks on the way back to the airport. Thank you, Dan for this memorable experience. We really had great fun, and came home with lots of wonderful memories. We will definitely come back one day.Thank you Danièle for taking the time to write such a complimentary review and also for the beautiful photos of our travels. I am so glad you have treasured memories of your stay in Ireland and that you are hoping to come back again in the future. It would be a pleasure to meet you again as I also have great memories of our time together. Best wishes to you, your dad and the four ladies.

- Patrick B2 contributionsA week golfing in IrelandMy golf group and I spent a week with Dan and the experience was incredible. The level and quality of service he provides is at the highest level. On multiple occasions Dan went above and beyond for our group when items were left behind at hotels, the golf course or even airports to retrieve them for us. Dan’s friendliness and customer service is unmatched! I cannot recommend him enough for your Ireland traveling needs!Thank you Patrick for your fabulous review, I really appreciate it and am so glad I help to make your golfing trip to Ireland a memorable one. I was happy to be of assistance in retrieving your lost belongings. Hope you will make a return trip to Ireland in the future.

Outstanding experience!
For the short version of our review, Dan is a totally awesome knowledgeable tour guide and wonderful person. Our group of 4 unanimously agreed it was a huge asset adding him to our plans! We can’t say enough good things about this man.
For those that like details, earlier this month we had the pleasure of doing a good part of our Ireland site seeing with Dan. We hired him for 6 days to explore Western and Southern Ireland. Living in the US, we reached out early this year and gave him a custom list of places we wanted to see. Dan knew we had no idea how long things took to get to or to see and first did a meet and greet on What’s App months before our trip to understand our key desires. We worked together to create itineraries that worked. He priced each day, willing to meet our needs, and did so remarkably. Once in Ireland, meeting Dan you will find him to be prompt (I should say early), professional and courteous. He will make sure you are safely across all roads and guides you to all entrances wherever you want to go. For custom, we added some towns where relatives once lived…. small, steep, winding roads to remote places one day. We got there and back safely. Dan was more than reasonably flexible, stopping for my love of picture taking and pointing out things I would not have seen without his help. And of course he is also very knowledgeable regarding Irish history and sites.
We would love it if our paths crossed again.
Dan, go raibh maith agat!

Dan is an incredible chauffeur and guide. Not wanting the stress of having my daughter drive Ring of Kerry on day 2 of a mother /daughters Ireland trip we hired Dan. Not only did he take us into areas the large buses are unable to access, he continually provided a narrative that was genuine and informative. We learned much from his discussion of the culture and history of Ireland, plus he was gracious to answer all our questions. A super nice guy all around. Highly recommend him.

Dan was the highlight of our trip! He made experiencing Ireland with our family so memorable and enjoyable. Without having to worry about driving on the wrong side of the road, or taking a moment to take in the countryside, it was awesome to count on Dan to take us around Ireland for part of our trip. He also gave us so many recommendations and suggestions that just made our trip even better! Highly recommend and upon our return, he will most definitely be our first contact as we have a lot more of Ireland yet to see!

All the stars for Dapper Dan. This was a couples golf trip, and I think about it nearly everyday since. Dan is a big part of that. His professionalism was next level, and he was a joy to be around from start to finish. I’d love to do it all again some day, and have a pint with Dan.

Hats off to Dan for making a special trip spectacular! Traveled the end of July and had Dan as our Chauffeur and he was terrific. Three generations of family traveling together with very different personalities. It didn't take Dan long to learn them all and more importantly. tolerate us all. It was as if he was part of our family. I was returning to a place my parents called home, which I I have spent a great amount of time in, but it felt brand new again. We traveled from Dublin down to Killarney, Kerry and ended up in Cobh, Cork. It was very nostalgic for me; all the while Dan was able to show us different points of interest. He keeps his vehicle immaculately clean, and it is very comfortable. When I go back to Ireland, I will certainly hire Dan again you will not get anyone better! It was our pleasure to meet such a wonderful man.

We just returned from Ireland and had a wonderful trip! Dan was a huge part of that! He was incredibly helpful and went out of his way to make everyone in our group happy - all 3 generations. He even found a fire station for my firefighter loving toddler. He was also very enjoyable to be around and when we return to Killarney area we will definitely be reaching out to Dan again. Thanks so much, Dan!

After just returning home from Ireland this week, I feel as if we've left a family member behind...Dan! We first contacted Dan well over two years ago, but then because of COVID had our plans to travel dashed three times. Throughout that time Dan and I emailed about how our families and countries were faring through it all. When we FINALLY arrived in Killarney last week, we embraced like long-lost cousins! My husband, adult son, and I had the joy of touring three full days with Dan to the Ring of Kerry, Dingle Peninsula, and the Cliffs of Moher. Dan's obvious knowledge about and love for his homeland made each day both a joy and an education! We will forever cherish our time experiencing the breathtaking beauty of Ireland, shared by a consummate professional whom we have invited to our home if Texas is ever his destination! Aren't there more than 5 stars?!

Thank you very much Gail for your review. I do appreciate you taking time to write such a lovely one. It was great to meet you, David and Bryan after two years and it was worth the wait! I thoroughly enjoyed the time spent with you and it did feel like meeting an old friend as we had got to know each other online. It was a pleasure to show you my country and so glad you have a cherished memory. Hope we meet again in Ireland or Texas, thank you again for your kind invite.

Before I begin let me preface this review that I never find the time to write them, but felt compelled to make an exception after a recent golf trip to Ireland.
From the moment we met Dan it was nothing but exceptional, professional service….except it was also like hanging out with your good humored uncle. Like a complete moron I left a carry on bag at the Dublin airport since I never really travel with a roller bag carry on. I didn’t realize it until arriving to our hotel. Dan drove me back to the airport right away and was a bulldog. He wouldn’t leave that airport until they got me my bag, which they did!
Dan went out of his way too many times to even mention on a post. He recently even found our friends expensive jacket he left behind and called him to let him know he found it for him.
Besides all his help, he was very knowledgeable about the history of Ireland and also gave fantastic recommendations on restaurants and pubs we were looking for.
Our entire group agreed, we completely lucked out with Dan. Simply the best.

Thank you Kevin for your tremendous review, it makes it all the more gratifying when as you say you do not do reviews. I was glad to be of assistance in locating your lost properties, you will have to bring your wife to look after you when travelling next time 😀. It really wasn't a problem though. I had a memorable and fun time with you all. I am glad you had a good experience in Ireland.
