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.

    The tour was amazing and our driver Brian was so good! He made sure everyone was back on the bus for the next stop, told us the history of the places we were passing while allowing us quiet time to reflect and appreciate the beautiful countryside. I would highly recommend this tour.

    Wonderful trip. Sean was great in every way. He took care of everything and more. Answering questions and encouraging questions. And music on the way.

    This was the best tour we went on while visiting Ireland. Our tour guide Úna was amazing and incredibly knowledgeable and a great storyteller. She went above and beyond for us on our trip! Northern Ireland is beautiful!

    Great hike to Wicklow Head with Gateway to Ireland Tours. Diana is an awesome guide with great stories about the area and local wildlife. She really feels the audience and sets the hike's pace accordingly. I was there with my 10-year old kid. He was happy - the best indication of the quality.

    We had a great time with our tour guide / driver Jonathan and enjoyed our day off of the crowded city of Dublin. All three destinations were amazing and so much fun to explore. As the weather was very unsettled that day, we were as good as alone on all three of them. Just put weather proof clothes on and enjoy the amazing views. We would recommend this trip to everyone and if we would have enough time left, we would have definitely booked a second trip (Celtic tour). It's a great opportunity to see some more (and definitely hear a LOT more) about beautiful and interesting Ireland while having a stay at Dublin.

    Richard was an amazing tour guide! He told lots of fun stories and had a great sense of humor. He played songs to go along with whatever he was talking about-- usually in a joking way-- and made the whole day fun and memorable. One of my favorite parts was driving through the Burren, a beautiful rocky park-like area. We stopped for photos and were treated to gorgeous views. Highly recommend!

    Flann our drivers was wonderful. He has the warm, friendly Irish spirit! He was an excellent driver and made sure to point out areas to us on drive out, very knowledgeable. I would ride with him again! Everything about this tour was perfect and just the right amount of time at each stop! Would recommend this tour Glendalough/Wicklow/Avondale definitely with it!

    We had a small group, only six of us and our tour guide was lovely. She had great stories and kept us all engaged as we walked through Dublin. We were able to have a lovely lunch at the Cheeky Piglet.
    It is a walking tour, you’ll get your 10,000 steps in. Great pace.
