Gorgeous views - Wonderful tour! Lovely hike. The woods are spectacularly beautiful (especially if you wander off the trail a little). There are darling little water falls that trickle into the lake. The old church ruins are stunning! Our tour guide had lots of interesting facts and stories about Dublin and the surrounding area.

The driver and bus was... - The driver and bus was great, we were lucky with the sunny day… but unfortunately I didn’t have enough time to see everything I wanted so I would advise to leave 12 o clock instead of half 1 pm because traffic in Dublin delayed us… Landscape is amazing but if you decide to eat you have very short time…

Use Wild Rover tours instead. - Use Wild Rover tours instead. I’ve done a bunch of day tours and travel often - I do not get lost or misread instructions. I also work in events and read instructions very carefully. My mom and I got to the pickup point listed 15 minutes early and Paddywagon went to a different location and left us. They have not responded to me or offered me any type of refund/credit. My mom and I did a trip together and this was our last day and we were devastated. Do yourself a favor and book with a company who cares about and gives clear instructions. Wild Rover is MUCH better.
