11 Day Discover Ireland Tour
"amazing introduction to ireland"
Review Image

I thoroughly enjoyed our 11 Day Driftwood Discover Ireland Tour with Vagabond Tours.

The trip exceeded my expectations in every way.

Our driver/guide Paddy kept us entertained the entire time with his knowledge and history of the areas we visited, his relevant stories, and his keen sense of humour.

The itinerary was comprehensive enough to give us a real taste of Ireland and the accommodation was top notch.

I would highly recommend a Vagabond Tour to anyone thinking about visiting Ireland!

"absolutely amazing tour"
Review Image

Had an amazing experience with Vagabond.

It was our first time to Ireland and Ava the guide was wonderful!

She went out of her way to care for the group and ensure we could do what we were most interested in. She shared her love for her home country and deftly navigated traffic issues.

10/10 would do again and hopefully can in the near future.

8 Day Wild Irish Rover Tour
"wonderful ireland tour"
Review Image

My wife and I did the 8 day Wild Irish Tour. It was an amazing 8 days!

Damien, our main tour guide, and Barry, who was being trained, were fantastic! They were so knowledgeable of Irish history. They were personable, funny and made us feel right at home! Their professionalism is top Tier!

The Itinerary was perfect and we appreciated the flexibility to accommodate the weather.

The accommodations were amazing - we have never been treated so special!

We loved every little and big thing about this adventure and would highly recommend this tour to everyone we know.
