Irishtoursforyou Recensioni 

First experience visiting and driving in Ireland. Irish tours for you suggested and booked all accommodations including the car. This allowed us to enjoy a relatively stress free ten day excursion in the country side. I would recommend particularly first time travelers.

I booked a private tour of Northern Ireland. I received more than I could imagine. Our chauffeur is a very educated individual in irish history and hidden gems that are impossible to experience on a bus. Our accommodations were over the top. For 8 days, we were safely driven to ideal viewing pleasures of the back country with superb hotel arrangements at the end of each day. Key historic monuments and modern world highlights were a daily feature while enjoying the comforts of a luxury car with a professional and fun driver. Many laughs and historical details along the way in this most friendly and charming island of Ireland 🇮🇪.

From start-to-finish and ALL points in between, Irish Tours For You was better than we could have ever hoped! We opted for a 12 day tour of the Emerald Isle. Upon our arrival we enjoyed three independent days in Dublin. We were picked up on day four from our Hotel lobby where we met our incredible driver, Aisling, who whisked us off to Belfast, Northern Ireland (Donegal), then through the entire West Coast through Counties Mayo, Galway, Clare, Kerry (around the Ring of Kerry), Cork, and Tipperary then back to Dublin for our trek home. Mary, our ITFY coordinator, asked us for our "must see's" as we planned the trip, Aisling made sure we enjoyed every one. PLUS once she got to know us and what we loved (Jeff, the classic lure of Irish pubs and gorgeous scenery and Denise, castles & history), Aisling would suggest stops that were NOT on our itinerary radar in each County (or en route between them)! These opportunities afforded us even MORE sights and sounds than we could've possibly imagined. Mary booked all of our accommodations (our requested 4-5 star hotels including two incredible castle hotels!), and assisted us step-by-step as to how to arrange for tickets and bookings to places which required them. It was an absolute stress-free incredible time taking in all the sights of this beautiful country as we drove in Aisling's competant care and delightful company. Wish there was a 10 star rating... Irish Tours for You deserves that!

Irish Tours For You was absolutely fabulous. Two of us couples opted for the private driver which turned out to be an incredible experience. From the time we initially contacted Irish Tours For You to the very end, Catherine was prompt and so helpful from every angle. We are now quite spoiled after having a private driver/tour. Wow! We didn't fully understand how invaluable Eoghan would be until we experienced it. We talked to a couple at breakfast one morning who were from the USA - they had rented a car and side-swiped a stone wall and broke off the side mirror within the first 10 minutes they had it. She said the trip had been quite stressful because of driving themselves. We had zero worries as Eoghan navigated the roads like a .... well, like a local! Not only did we get to look at the scenery as we rode, but Eoghan told us so many things about Ireland that we would have missed if we had attempted to drive ourselves. He dropped us off as close as possible to whatever venue we were visiting, including our hotels, so we never dealt with parking issues. He allowed us all the time we wanted to explore, eat, shop and whatever else we wanted to do. Quite honestly, Eoghan turned out to significantly impact our trip, making it so fun and memorable. We have done two Rick Steves bus tours and while they were great, this trip superseded them by miles!

Having done two Rick Steves tours, the four of us remarked that the choices of lodging reminded us of what he would choose. The beautiful thing about the private tour is that we literally could have chosen anything we wanted for our tour. If we had requested a specific hotel or bed and breakfast, Catherine would have made it possible. But, it was great to let her choose since she knows the areas best and what a divine job she did! I would not hesitate one bit to allow Irish Tours For You to make your Ireland trip one of the best you could ever have.

Irish Tours For You did an amazing job planning our family's tour of Southern Ireland. I worked with Ellen, who felt like a friend by the time we set off on our trip. We started in Dublin, and then spent nights in Cork, Kerry, Galway and back to Dublin. Every place left us wanting more! We did the private chauffeured tour, and our driver Eugene, added so much to our experience! We had some of our main attractions planned out, and then he filled in wonderful stops and experiences to fill our day. He also had great restaurant suggestions and watched out for our mother who was about to turn 87! He will always be part of our memories, too. Another touch that made the trip special was that Ellen arranged for birthday surprises at our hotels not once, but 3 different times. It's hard to say enough about that! Our last night back in Dublin was spent at Clontarf Castle, and it was an incredible grand finale! What a perfect ending to a trip of a lifetime. I will be recommending Irish Tours For You and Ellen to anyone planning a trip to Ireland! Emoji

My husband and I recently returned from a 10 day mini Irish tour through Irish Tours for You. We had a wonderful time. Gathering information and booking the trip through Fionnuala O’Laughlin was a breeze. She was very helpful and provided any and all information needed for the trip. We were fortunate enough to have John Reilly as our driver/guide for the trip. He was informative about the history and all things, Irish, which added to our experience. John also took us to places that were not on the itinerary which was great. ( He was funny too! ). The hotels on the tour were easily four stars and above. The food at each location was very good. If anyone is planning on going to Ireland, we would strongly encourage you to contact Fionnuala O’Laughlin and her team at Irish Tours for You. You won’t be disappointed! 

We recently returned from the 8 day Ireland in a Jiffy Tour with Irish Tours For You. I have to say that in 20 years of traveling, this was the best travel experience and best food of any trip we have ever been on (including more expensive European tours). Being in a small coach gave us easier access to many sites. Our driver/guide Martin was amazing and an endless source of knowledge and information. He was very proactive with our itinerary and actually rearranged our Blarney Castle tour to the afternoon, after he found out a cruise ship group would be there the morning we were scheduled. Instead, he arranged an optional tour that morning to the charming harbor town of Cobh that was delightful.

The trip was a perfect mix of jaw dropping scenery, geologic and human history, and cultural highlights. We would have never imagined that we would experience human history from 5000 years ago! Everything was better than we expected, with cozy but roomy accommodations, and outstanding food. We enjoyed fresh fish every day, and each location had it's own version of Fish Chowder and brown bread which immediately became our favorite lunch!

Our travel advisor Sandra Feery, worked tireless with me to customize many aspects of our trip- tweaking the itinerary here and there, to ensure we were able to include everything on our Wish List.

My husband and I are saying how will we ever travel again because no trip will surpass this one! The value for the money and the travel experience of this trip is unsurpassed.

We took a small group 15 day tour of Ireland. The pace of the tour , the activities chosen, and the sense of humor and flexibility of our guide, Brendan McCarthy, added to the enjoyment. The country is beautiful, the people are friendly, and there is a lot to see and do. It was great not having to select hotels, arrange tickets, etc. But our guide offered us flexibility with our activities, and that was a bonus.

Irish Tours for you builds a tour to your wishes and then delivers. We had an excellent tour guide and driver who's suggestions were great. Accommodations were perfect. Making for an awesome trip.

We just returned from a 14-day Full Irish Tour, and words can hardly describe the experience—exceptional, phenomenal, and beyond all expectations!
Working with Irish Tour For You was a true pleasure. From the very beginning, planning with Catherine Higgins was seamless. She was professional, responsive, and always happy to answer our questions. Throughout the trip, she kept in constant communication, checking in and making sure everything was going smoothly. It made the entire process stress-free.
Our guide and driver, Brendan McCarthy, was absolutely outstanding! As a certified National Guide (which I highly recommend), he brought a wonderful blend of knowledge, humor, and personal stories that made every stop come alive. He went above and beyond to ensure we experienced the very best of Ireland. His storytelling and perspective as a local gave us a deeper connection to the country, and he kept the trip fun, engaging, and memorable.
The hotels and restaurants were excellent, always located in the heart of charming towns, which gave us plenty of time to explore, soak up the culture, and truly experience Ireland like locals. The landscapes and historic sites were breathtaking—pictures and TV simply don’t do them justice.
Some of our favorite stops included the Guinness Storehouse, Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge, Giant’s Causeway, Slieve League Cliffs Centre, Kylemore Abbey, and the Cliffs of Moher. Blarney Castle, with its stunning gardens and scenery, was another highlight—and of course, we all kissed the stone for luck! Every site exceeded our expectations—nothing disappointed.
If you’re considering a trip to Ireland, don’t hesitate—go! It’s absolutely worth it. We highly recommend Irish Tour For You for their professionalism, attention to detail, and outstanding service. And if you have the chance, request Brendan as your guide—he’s an incredible person, a gifted storyteller, and truly made our journey unforgettable.

From the beginning, Sandra and Greta were wonderful answering every question with professionalism and being so prompt. Dublin couldn’t have been more welcoming as we were there for the Pittsburgh Steeler game amazing our driver Ciara was top-notch 10 out of 10 she was professional a good driver and showed us all of the spots that we wanted to see in addition to ones we had no idea were even available to us. We wished we could’ve seen more, but we had beautiful weather and was able to see so much Thank you Irish tours for you. !

This tour company made our tour of Ireland very memorable. They took us to all the greatt attractions that you always hear about plus some that we requested. Our driver, Garvan was incredible, very flexible and knowledgable and went above and beyond to make sure all our needs were met.

We booked a 10 day small group tour of the “nooks and crannies “ of Ireland. We were scheduled for 8 travelers but ended up as six. We had a driver/ guide who drove the tour in a very comfortable small bus.
The tour included many of the major sights , St Patrick’s, Dingle, the cliffs of Moher. But there was ample time for us to decide what we wanted to do. Our driver was willing for some to choose different agendas. We were never rushed.
The travel agency was very helpful with every detail of our planning and responsive to questions.
Our accommodations were first class and the food typically Irish fare. We were free for dinner about every other night.
I would highly recommend this tour agency to anyone.

Irish Tours for You is first class. First, we had wonderful accommodations and restaurants everywhere we stayed. Our drivers/guides, Gerry and Robbie, were so knowledgeable and entertaining. I had to ask Robbie if he was a history teacher because he knew the entire timeline of Ireland’s history. (Lots of “bits and bobs” about Ireland as we traveled.) He kept us all on schedule and no one got lost! Secondly, I felt we definitely saw the “nooks and crannies” of Ireland, because of the many places we stopped at for breaks as well as planned tours. Everything was scenic and lovely. The Irish are the friendliest people I have ever encountered, too. Our travel-mates were sweet and fun to be with. I’m glad we did the small group. It was the way to go for us. We have made some life-long friendships with a few of them. Lastly, I appreciate all that Mary, agent at IRFU, did to help our trip be a success. She was on top of all my emails and answered all my questions thoroughly. I hope in the future we can plan another delightful adventure with Irish Tours for You.

Cant say enough great things about our experience with Irish Tours for You 10-Day Southern Nooks and Crannies Small-Coach tour in May.
There were 13 like-minded people on board. We have no interest in a 53-person bus - the logistics must be awful - check-in, check-out, baggage, meals.
Our driver, Gerry McKeon, navigated the impossibly narrow roads with ease and impressed us all with his knowledge of Ireland, EU and US. He took us to out-of-the-way venues and excursions that we never would have found on our own. He made the trip extra special.

It was such a pleasure to book our tour of Ireland with Irish Tours for You. The accommodations they booked were top notch. The towns they suggested were great. Any questions we had they were prompt in answering. They made us feel at ease considering this was our first trip to Ireland, and had no idea what to expect. I would highly recommend them and I will use them again for our next trip which we are already planning.

We used Irish Tours For You to book a self-drive trip in Ireland and Scotland. All the hotels we stayed at were wonderful and the details in the itinerary were exceptional. When we had to change part of our schedule, they did so fast and perfect. Thanks Ellen for a great experience.

Our recent trip to Ireland was FANTASTIC, thanks to Irish Tours For You! Catherine was wonderful to work with - we had a group of 6 longtime friends (3 couples) and none of us had been to Ireland before. We had some ideas on what we wanted to do and see during our 14-days in Ireland, and Catherine took our list and put together a dream trip. We had a great mix of hotels - some traditional Irish luxury, some modern, a spa on the beach, and even a castle! Each was a treat to stay in, and every day included a nice, made-to-order breakfast (not just danish & coffee)! We not only got our perfect 14-day itinerary, but also suggestions for each day/location of what sights to see, things to do, and dinner suggestions. We were sent information well in advance on what to expect with respect to weather, temperature and even what to (and not to) pack.

We knew we didn’t want to tackle driving in Ireland, so we requested a driver/tour guide for just our small group. Turns out the driver assigned to us - Lloyd was THE BEST! We hit it off right from the start - by the end of the first day Lloyd was one of us. He had our itinerary and not only took us from point A to point B, but gave us suggestions for lunch at locally owned restaurants, and suggested points of interest/places to see. We were able to experience the Irish National Stud & Gardens, Killarney National Park/Waterfalls, Dingle Sheepdogs, Celtic Steps Show, Shannon Ferry ride, Killary Fjord Boat Tour, Kylemore Abbey & Walled Gardens, The Grianan of Aileach, and even stopped in to see Royal Portrush Golf Club (which held the 2025 British Open). Lloyd wasn’t just driving us, he was giving us the history of so much of what we saw, and stories about the places that he knew so well because he grew up in CORK!! We could not believe how well he knew the entire 1300 mile route driven on our tour!

Along the way, Catherine checked in on us to see how the tour was going, and made sure we knew how to get in touch with her, if any problems occurred. That was a great comfort to us. From the time we arrived in Dublin, until the very last day, after circling the entire country, we never had a problem! All accommodations were booked perfectly for us, right down to our tee times at Donegal Golf Club! Thank you Catherine - we could not have done this without you!!

We traveled with 8 family members on a 6 day private tour with chauffeur. From the first email to Sheila to the last email, she has been so helpful and professional throughout the planning stage and when we were actually on our trip. She gave us helpful hints and guidance to ensure our trip was the best it could be. There was one issue we had, no fault on the company, but she took responsibility of the issue and had it resolved quickly and efficiently. This was the best trip, thanks to Sheila.
