Rob and Amy Rankin established Vagabond Tours all the way back in 2002.
23 seasons later, our small-group tours of Ireland still revolve around laughter, learning and off the beaten track destinations.
We made such great friends along the way.
I consider Vagabond the best choice because they are flexible and open to suggestions ...
It was obvious that Vagabond's only goal is to make sure their customers have an excellent experience while visiting Ireland. Highly recommend!

Our Driftwood Tour was amazing. Having a small group made the adventure so much more fun.
Having a smaller vehicle let us explore places that big buses couldnโt reach.
My only dilemma is what trip to book with them next.
EMILY, NOVEMBER 2023
We had the perfect trip to Ireland ... Every day was full of off the beaten path experiences.
Traveling with a small group is definitely the way to go.
If Ireland is on your bucket list, be sure to go with a Vagabond Driftwood tour!
