★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 30 reviews · 12 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $1,080

Private Dublin day trip to Cliffs of Moher, Burren and Galway with hotel pickup and admissions included, up to four.

“I paid for an English speaking tour guide and our guide didn’t speak English! He just pointed at his phone with instructions that someone had previously typed for him. It took 10 minutes to figure out when lunch was scheduled. He skipped attractions that were supposed to be part of the tour. He also cut the tour time down by 1 1/2 hours. I do not recommend using this company for your tour of the cliffs.”

13.Private Full Day Whiskey Tour from Dublin with Tullamore D.E.W.

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 28 reviews · 10 hours (approx.) · from $589

Private whiskey day trip from Dublin to Kilbeggan, Sean's Bar, and Tullamore D.E.W. with tastings, pickup, and rural countryside.

“We thoroughly enjoyed our whiskey tour with John. Our focus originally had been to tour Tullamore Dew since we are from San Francisco and use that whiskey to make our Irish coffees after having many from the famous Buena Vista Cafe; however we enjoyed the juxtaposition of touring a very old distillery (Kilbeggan) with a much more modern (Tullamore Dew). Visiting Sean’s Bar was a treat and we had a very enjoyable lunch on our own in Athlone that John had recommended. The pacing of the tour was excellent and John provided the perfect balance of historical commentary when driving and leaving us time on the individual tours. Would highly…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 21 reviews · 11 hours · from $175

Day trip Belfast from Dublin by Enterprise Express. Titanic Experience, hop-on bus, murals drive, free city center time, optional Crumlin Gaol.

This tour gives you the freedom to do what you want when you want. You do not stay with a whole group. We listened to the advice from our guide and then went off on our own to explore. We had previously done a tour with the Titanic Experience included and felt very rush. This excursion allowed us the ability to go at our own pace. We were very happy with our experience.”
