Excursión espectacular de 5 días por el sur y el oeste para grupos pequeños de Irlanda desde Dublín

This was an awesome experience despite a rough start. We got to see most everything we wanted and more. What really made the trip was our driver/guide, Pat. He was very personable and knowledgeable. Also, the small bus tour is the way to go. It is so much nicer and more flexible to travel with a smaller group and vehicle. You get to know everyone and get to do more. The rough start was due to a glitch with our reservation (they didn’t have it, even thought we had the ticket/receipt). The problem was fixed immediately and they more than made up for it by giving us a room upgrade the first night. The overall trip was so good we quickly forgot about the initial problem.

Our tour did not get off on a good start. As Viator is a Tripadvisor company, they assigned our booking to a tour company, called Overland Ireland. We got to the meeting place the morning of the tour, only to find that the 4 of us traveling together were not on Overland's list of attendees. Within 10 minutes, the tour guide from Overland had hired a taxi (since the small tour coach was full) and loaded our luggage and we were on our way to meet the rest of the group at the first stop (which was a 2 hour taxi ride that cost a pretty penny for Overland.) . Meanwhile, since the B&B which was booked for that night did not have 2 extra rooms for the 4 of us, they arranged for a different hotel, which was a real upgrade and left us a bottle of champagne with an apology note. It appeared to us that they had never received the booking from Viator but that was never confirmed. Either way, they went out of their way to make up for the error and before the end of the day, a 2nd tour guide with a 2nd van had been summoned, who took the 4 of us and 2 other groups from the other van on the rest of the tour. So, there were 9 of us in a very comfortable vehicle traveling with a fun and knowledgable guide for the rest of the tour. We saw lots of great sights with our excellent guide, Pat. Pat was very accommodating to all of us, even allowed those that wanted to drop laundry at a wash and fold the morning we were returning to the same city. We had a great trip and loved Ireland.
