If you’d prefer the traditional tour experience, we have an incredible range of Small Group Tours of Ireland where you tour our beautiful little country in one of our Overland Ireland mini coaches driven by your own local guide.
Our small group tours are designed to take you off the beaten track and range from the relaxed to the active, allowing you to tailor the style and length of adventure to suit you.
Our Relaxed Tours of Ireland let you experience Ireland’s most loved landmarks and many hidden gems at an easy-going pace.
Our Active Group Tours of Ireland are designed with adventure in mind and are perfect for those who want their Ireland with a bit of zing; like kayaking with dolphins, hiking peaks, or biking with red deer. Experience Ireland through adventure.
Our local guides know every boreen (country lane) and bawn (enclosed tower) in the 32 counties and they are just bursting to share their stories, hidden histories, and local knowledge.
Did we mention our tours are award-winning and have been reviewed by the world’s toughest critics (our previous tour groups)?
