Small groups and big experiences have always been our mantra. We have an average of 12 guests on each tour, with a max of 15 except for private or custom tours. This gives you a more personal experience, more space, and a lot more options for cultural experiences, activities, eating and entertainment.
Every day we can go off the beaten track with a smaller group, while a self-drive tour can take you anywhere.
Not all superheroes wear capes! This is true of our amazing tour guides. They will look after you 24/7, show you everything Ireland has to offer, share amazing stories with you, and most importantly keep you safe from the minute you step on board to the moment you leave.
Our guides are all fully trained in first aid and our own safety procedures. They appreciate that they are carrying precious cargo at all times.
The beauty of a trip with Overland Ireland is that almost everything of interest is located in Ireland’s famed unspoiled landscape. Enjoy Ireland’s 40 shades of green and the freshest air!
One of our favourite things to do is explore the coastline by foot. You can take an easy stroll or a more challenging hike depending on your pace of tour. Guests love being invigorated by the wildness and beauty of their surroundings.
Our expert local guides know Ireland better than everyone else. They take you off the beaten track and have all the tricks up their sleeves to avoid large crowds and queues.
Overland’s guides are passionate about Irish history, tradition, and culture. They have the best stories and will answer all the strange and wonderful questions you can think of. You cannot beat local knowledge when choosing a tour of Ireland.
We are delighted that our small groups can stay in locally-run guest houses and hotels — and even opulent castles! These accommodations are smaller and more intimate so there is less chance for guests to come in contact with a large number of tourists. On custom tours, guests can also choose from a range of options.
All guests have their own private bathroom at each location. We review the safety and cleaning procedures at all locations, so we are fully confident in our Overland Accommodation selection.
Our customer service team at Overland HQ will answer any questions you may have before, during, and after your trip. We are committed to providing a trusted top-class service to all Overland Ireland’s customers.
While you are on tour your guide will be your chaperone, but should you choose our self-drive options you can chat with us through our app, Paddy the Pocket Pilot.
Overland’s Self-Drive Tours of Ireland come with the support of our innovative Paddy the Pocket Pilot app! The app will be your virtual tour guide, on hand to answer any questions you have during your tour of Ireland.
Our self-drive packages give you the freedom of driving yourself around Ireland but with the support of our team at Overland HQ and detailed itineraries at your fingertips.
On each tour, our aim is to spend as little time on the bus and more time exploring our wonderful countryside. With this in mind, you can rest easy that you will not spend your holiday in a confined space but will be free to roam our hotspots on and off the beaten track.
We have a wide range of clean and comfortable Overland Transport options depending on your group size and needs.
We have built an excellent relationship with all our suppliers and experienced providers, and are delighted to introduce you to all our trusted friends and partners throughout Ireland.
We will make all reservations on your behalf, securing private areas when possible, as well as individual reservations if you feel like doing your own thing. Most of our activities and experiences are in the great outdoors and are private to Overland groups.
Why not book a holiday of a lifetime for your family or friends exclusively with your very own private guide and top-class transport?
With private tours, you will have the flexibility to tweak the tour to suit your interests. Your guide will be more than happy to cater for your daily needs.
