⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Not enough words to describe the tour and if I could give 10 stars, I would. The small tour was perfect for us and our fellow Driftwooders were all compatible. I can't say enough positive things about this company except that you should do yourself a favor and book a tour with them." Guest Review, October 2022

I am so happy we decided to book a tour of Ireland with Vagabond Tours.
We wanted the perks of being on a small-group tour and being able to travel those narrow Irish roads to truly see "Ireland". Vagabond did not disappoint!
Our guide Brian was so knowledgeable, funny, a great story teller and singer, his upbeat personality and knowledge of history made the trip one of the best tours I've had in Europe. It was so much fun to meet our fellow passengers, the friendly people of Ireland and especially loved talking to the locals in the pubs.
Highlights included Blarney Castle and its gardens, sheep dog demonstration and feeding the baby lambs, Healy Pass, horse drawn ride in Killarney National Park, and finally all of the pubs!

As American citizens, we decided that driving on the left side of the road, navigating, and trying to enjoy the scenery was not the way we wanted to tour Ireland.
We are so glad we chose Vagabond to introduce us to Ireland. Having only 14 people on our tour allowed us the opportunity to customize the stops, ask questions along the way and get to know our fellow passengers.
We enjoyed both of our guides, Darren and Andrew. Both guides were raised in Ireland and shared an amazing amount of history and personal stories. We especially enjoyed stops at the sheep farm, our stay at the castle, the drive along Slea Head, and of course the Blarney Castle and Cliffs of Moher. So many photo ops! Many roads are narrow and winding so we were very happy to leave the driving to the pros.
Don't hesitate to book with Vagabond!

As this was our 50th aniversary, Vagabond left several surprise gifts along our way, which we enjoyed and appreciated.
The group size was only 13 people, all of who were very nice and first-time travelers, like us
Our guide, Sian, was wealth of information. She must have kissed the Blarney Stone herself! She always had a bit of the history of where we were. A non-stop orator.
The weather was very cooperative. Only one rainy day (but bring a rain coat).
