We traveled with Ireland Chauffeur Travel September 10-17, 2022. I had taken prior trips to Ireland with a private driver and a CIE bus tour. Both were terrific and I had a good idea of places that I wanted my husband and friends to see. I chose Ireland Chauffeur Travel because they seemed to be very flexible about rescheduling a future trip if we were unable to go this year due to Covid or other reasons. They use comfortable Mercedes SUV’s for touring.
I gave a list of places I wanted to visit, experiences I wanted to have, and dates of travel to my contact, Michelle Lee. She developed an itinerary and suggested additional activities to include in our trip. Michelle was terrific to work with, responded promptly and kindly to my emails as we developed our tour. The hotels we stayed at were all 4 star and were centrally located for walking to restaurants and attractions in the evening.
John Healy, our Driver/Guide, was a perfect match and related well to each of us. He was very professional, always prompt on our 10-6 daily tour, well traveled internationally, had good historical knowledge of all the places we visited and took us to many places that weren’t on our itinerary that we enjoyed immensely. He suggested pubs and restaurants that previous clients enjoyed and made reservations for us. We had time to walk around several small towns and do some shopping. We saw and experienced an amazing number of places in our 8 days of touring. Our friends and my husband sing praises for John and all the wonderful experiences we had on our tour.
5 stars for Ireland Chauffeur Travel, John Healy and Michelle Lee!

Don't frequently write reviews, but the outstanding service provided by Ireland Chauffeur Travel's Alma Creed and the driver/tour guide Thomas McQuinn deserves the highest rating and strongest recommendations. Our family trip included multiple generations with different interests, even arriving and leaving at different times. Alma Creed was very responsive and put together a great tour that had something for everyone on our trip and included bike trips through the Burren and the Waterford bike path, great hotels in Dublin, Kilkenny, Killarney, Cork, Ennis and Galway, all with breakfasts for the six of us included The Great Southern in Killarney town center was a standout. Even the final night in the Portmarnock Resort before departing Dublin airport was perfect--delightful beach, beautiful walks, relaxing and easy access to the airport. The best part about the arrangements made for us was our driver, Thomas McQuinn. Spending eight days with a stranger was a bit daunting initially, but Thomas was delightful and quickly became a family favorite. He was very knowledgeable about every area we visited, shared stories and history along the way and added enormously to the trip experience. He was flexible and every recommendation he made regarding sights, pubs, dining and entertainment turned out to be great. Thomas seemed to know someone in every town and made sure we were not visiting sites at the same time tour ships were unloading and busing in visitors. He arranged for us to have front and center seats for a fantastic Irish trio in a crowded pub in Kilkenny at Kyteler's Inn. Every where we went, Thomas seemed to have a contact who looked after us and added to our experience. We frequently adjusted our original travel plans as we discussed options with Thomas or found that we wanted to spend more time at certain places. We cannot rate Thomas as high as he deserves and we wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone visiting Ireland.

We had a fantastic experience with Ireland Chaffeur Travel! Alison Lonergan was an invaluable guide in choosing and reserving our hotels, making last minute changes as necessary. Bob Noonan our driver was incredible, with his kindness and easy going way, his knowledge of Ireland and his ability to change course from planned itinerary when necessary. Bob arranged horseback riding for my daughter and was always seeking to find activities that our children would enjoy.
Highlights of the trip included a stay at Dromoland Castle, a truly unique hotel experience and dining in the Pullman Restaurant at Glenlo Abbey in Galway, a restaurant inside original carriages from the Orient Express.
When Bob dropped us in Dublin we said goodbye to a new friend. Thank you Alison and Bob!

The experience my family and I had with Ireland Chauffeur Travel (“IRT”) was terrific from start to finish. When I initially reached out to IRT I spoke with Sam and he was very clear, kind and patient and offered some good information that helped me to decide a more precise itinerary for the trip. I sought quotes from several companies and IRT’s rates were competitive. We hired a driver for the trip from the airport to our hotel in Dublin and he was professional, courteous and a good, safe driver. After a couple of days in Dublin we were picked up by our main driver, Podge, for the rest of our travels to the west coast. He reached out to me the evening before pickup to discuss what we were looking for in our travels and to confirm our schedule. By the end of our trip Podge felt like family! He communicated well and he shared so much of Ireland’s history, culture and beauty with us, along with some great personal stories. We had a 6 year old child with us and Podge treated her royally and did his best to make sure her experience was fun and enjoyable. He gave all of us (a group of 8) the most amazing experiences! We could never have navigated the road on our own without issues and are extremely grateful for Podge’s expertise. He delivered us to our “must see” locations and got us to other beautiful places we would otherwise not have visited had we driven ourselves. When we shared one specific location we were looking to see and one restaurant where we thought we would eat, he made alternate suggestions that proved to be amazing! At all times we felt safe in our 9-seater Mercedes Sprinter. It was very clean and comfortable and there was plenty of cold water in the refrigerator for us. We will absolutely return to Ireland one day and will not hesitate to hire this company again and will be sure to request Podge as our driver!

I have 2 recommendations if you are planning a trip to Ireland. 1), hire a Chauffer/Guide company and 2) make sure it is Ireland Chauffeur Travel. We recently spent a week touring Ireland with them and they were amazing. The planning process was easy and customized to our needs and desires. They captured the essence of what we wanted in our Itinerary. Their drivers and vehicles were top notch. Seeing the beauty of Ireland is one thing. But I am confident that we saw and experienced the culture and beauty in a unique and special way due to the local expertise and friendliness of the driver/guides. What really set Ireland Chauffer Travel apart from the rest was what they did for us when we experienced a sudden medical emergency. You would expect a Travel Company to be good at sightseeing and arranging tours, but they went above and beyond with helping us navigate a difficult time with their their kindness, caring, generosity and local connections.A special salute to Shane Leahy, Camillus Croke and Mary Campion for being our friends and family away from home.

My college friends and I hired Ireland Chauffeur Travel to transport us throughout the country on our recent 20th anniversary visit and it was an amazing experience. We first started planning the trip back in 2020 but it was canceled twice due to Covid. However, they honored our deposit for those lost two years and we finally got to do it this June of 2022!

Michelle Lee was our representative who helped us plan the trip from start to finish. She was nothing short of fantastic! So nice and helpful and accommodating. Always quick to reply to any of my queries. She suggested we take a 10-passenger Mercedes Sprinter van which was very clean and comfortable for my crew of 8. If you contact ICT, be sure to ask for Michelle!

Even more amazing is how much we lucked out having our driver be Camillus (Cam) Croke! What an awesome lad! He absolutely made our trip and he could not have been more perfect. He knew every bit of the countryside and where to take us, landmarks to point out, and the best pubs to stop in for a pint along the way. My friends and I have continued our friendship and conversations with him even after we returned to the States…this is the kind of experience you have when you hire ICT and in my opinion, there is no other way to see Ireland except to use their chauffeur services. I’m not home a week yet and I have already referred another friend to them.

Highly HIGHLY recommend Ireland Chauffeur Travel, you will be very happy!!!

We really had wonderful time touring Ireland with Christopher as our Guide/Driver. Bela had limited mobility due to an accident that happened just few days before we started our tour.
But Chris made it so easy for us to visit most important sights and he helped and scheduled all the activities and drives so that Bela can manage without much problems. Chris really went way beyond his normal duties to accommodate our needs and made sure that we enjoy our planned itinerary. It was one of the best trips we had taken in which our guide/driver made a huge difference in making our trip memorable one. We both are vegetarian and Chris made sure to locate restaurants with multiple choices for vegetarian options.
Thank you Sarah, Thank you Chris for taking care of all the little details that normally make a wonderful trip. We will definitely recommend your company, you and Chris as Driver/Guide to our friends and family.

I don't have enough good things to say about Ireland Chauffeur Travel. My husband worked with Shane years ago and had such a great experience that it was a no brainer for this trip. We started planning our wedding in Ireland in March 2021. After the initial consultation with Shane, Michelle became our point of contact. Michelle put together tour options for not only us but for our guests as well. As one could imagine, there were a lot of moving parts. Essentially, we had three different trips in one. Michelle handled all with ease, grace, and great recommendations.

Arrival and pre-wedding, it was just my husband and I. Our tour guide, Peter Chambers, picked us up at the airport to begin our trip. Peter could not have been more pleasant, knowledgeable, & funny. We spent the first four days with Peter. Just the three of us.

For our wedding and the three day festivities we booked a 40 person coach for three days. Our driver for this was Paul. Paul too was kind and pleasant.

After the wedding, we now had seven people going on a three day tour. For this part we had a 10 person sprinter. And most importantly, Peter rejoined us! Peter is so personable and lovely. He knew all the places to go! Places off the beaten path. And with good food, pints, and fun!

I highly recommend Ireland Chauffeur Travel to all! It doesn't matter if you are traveling with only your spouse, with 10 people, or 50. Ireland Chauffeur Travel will make it perfect!!!!

I can't wait to go back to Ireland and when we do, we will be using Ireland Chauffeur Travel & Peter Chambers!!!

Patti Cannon

This trip was a trip of a lifetime! Our driver, Eric, made the trip such a high light for us! His knowledge and love of Irelands history and culture was amazing. He made sure that there was something for everyone on the trip and we had ages ranging from 1-73. He was very accommodating to everyone and had much patience as with our large group. Everyone on the trip agreed that Eric was essential to the enjoyment of the trip.
As we were first timers in Ireland, we relied heavily on the office's recommendations and they did not disappoint. Every town, every stop was better than we could have imagined. The hotels chosen were fantastic and we enjoyed all of the restaurant recommendations. We used Ireland Chauffeur Travel on the recommendation from a friend and would not hesitate to use you again and highly recommend to others.

My husband and I, along with our four other friends, thoroughly enjoyed an incredible weeklong trip through Ireland in June, thanks to Ireland Chauffeur Travel. Bob Noonan (our driver/tour guide) and Alison Lonergan (travel advisor) were absolutely amazing and I can’t thank them enough. We felt SO lucky to have Bob as our guide! His impressive deep knowledge of Ireland’s history and culture really made a huge difference in our experience on this trip, and he went out of his way to show us so many beautiful landscapes. We all appreciated his accommodating, flexible, thoughtful, friendly, humorous, and kind spirit.
I would totally recommend Ireland Chauffeur Travel to anyone planning an Ireland trip and give them five stars!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
