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.

Amazing family vacation - Sean was fantastic helping us plan our adventure and providing great recommendations on sights, restaurants, and hotels. Dan was our driver for 4 days and could not have been nicer. His kindness and very flexible and chill attitude was exactly what we were looking for on this lovely vacation. We toured the Ring of Kerry, the Dingle Peninsula and spent time in Killarney and Galway. Sean planned the stops along the way and Dan was great about improvising based on how the day was going. It was a stress free trip for the 7 of us and a trip I’d highly recommend. Thank you!

June of 2022 was the second trip for my Family using Stephen Butler Coaches. We worked with Sean on the itinerary in the months prior to the trip. He was very helpful in answering questions and giving suggestions. There were 17 of us, from 80 to 10 years of age and the trip that was planned had something for everyone. Olan was our driver and he was wonderful. With 17 people, there was always a request for something and he handled it professionally and with a smile. The bus itself was a dream. Comfortable and large enough for all of us. We are already talking about trip number three!!! Thank you so much to Stephen Butler Coaches. We made life memories with you, first in 2017 and now in 2022!!

Our family of 8 (ages 21-83) just returned from an amazing trip to Ireland. We used Stephen Butler Coaches (Sprinter Van) and could not have had a better experience! Sean was wonderful to work with during our planning stages, he was responsive, patient and flexible as we tried to create an itinerary that would make the most of our week in Ireland. We all loved our driver, Peter. He was so knowledgeable, friendly and fun. He made sure we were comfortable and got us to all our destinations safely. We even had last minute changes to our schedule, but both Sean and Peter made it all work smoothly. I can't imagine this trip without them to guide us. Highly recommend Stephen Butler!

We had a fantastic time using Stephens Coaches. We dealt with Sean who was incredibly helpful. Booking was easy. We travelled in a big group and the driver John arrived on time and was very accommodating and friendly. The coach was spotless and luxurious. We would definitely use them again.

Just a short note from the Rushbrooke tennis club group to say we were so thrilled with the service Sean provided last Saturday. Everything went like clockwork.
We want to particularly say what a professional and pleasant driver John was.He was excellent throughout the day. The journey was super and the juniors had a fantastic day. John is a credit to the company.
We would highly recommend this company.
Thank you again.

Stephen Butler Tours is a class act! Prior to the trip Stephen and Chris were helpful during the planning phase by answering questions through prompt reply emails, about travel times and distances from one place to the next. Once in Ireland Olan took over where they left off and continued to help me daily with pick up and drop off times and suggestions along the way that helped put my mind at ease. Olan greeted us with a smile at the airport and was friendly, kind and easy going throughout our travels. Olan’s driving skills are amazing! Still can hardly believe the narrow back roads he maneuvered our giant tour bus past oncoming traffic with such finesse! From Dublin to Kilkenny to Waterford to Cork to Galway and back to Dublin, Olan kept all 46 of us safe and happy! I can not say enough good things about this Bus company and Olan! Truly just Wonderful from beginning to end! Will definitely book Stephen Butler on our next trip over! They put Ireland’s 100,000 Welcomes into Action! Slainte!

We used Stephen Butler Coaches for our travels when we came over for our son's wedding and they were amazing! Sean Butler was excellent in helping figure out what we needed as well as communicating with us every step of the way. His drivers were very friendly and helpful in getting us all to and from venues as well as traveling about the countryside for several days before the actual wedding festivities. Would highly recommend Stephen Butler Coaches for anyone who does not want the hassle of driving in Ireland. A special shout out to our driver Roy Fitzgerald who traveled around with us for 4 days sight seeing - so much fun!!!

Just spent 10 days in June 2022 on Stephen Butler Coaches with 17 family members. Our driver Olan was helpful, knowledgeable and loads of fun. (My two sons are still talking about him.) With such a large group of people, having a coach and driver really made traveling across Ireland convenient, comfortable, safe and easy. Sean was helpful in the planning stages of the trip as well, reviewing our plans and offering suggestions. Highly recommended!

Sean was an excellent, safe driver and keenly knowledgeable and personable. We enjoyed his quick sense of humor as well. He was flexible with our (weather-related) change of plans and arranged a slightly different itinerary that was just perfect. I completely endorse Sean and would not hesitate to hire him again.

The day we spent touring with Sean was one of our favorite experiences of the entire trip! His enthusiasm and knowledge of his native country really made the day extra special. The cliffs of Moher and Galway are both must sees. He earned extra points for taking a very skeptical Italian American to "the best pizza place in Ireland" - and he was right. Highly recommend!

We are planning a trip to Ireland this fall. Our dates are October 29 to November 7. There will be four adults in our group. Can you give me an estimate for a car and driver for this period of time as I have to present it to the other couple.
Thank you for your time.
