The tour caters for small groups with a maximum group size of 16. This ensures a personal feel to the tour and there will be lots of time for interaction. The tour is ideal for private groups of 10 – 16 people. This allows much more flexibility, so if there is something specific that people in the group want to see or do, then we can almost always arrange it.
We always try our best to facilitate our guests. However we do need a minimum of 8 people in order to run the tour. If you can’t join any of our published date, get in touch and we may be able to help.
For private groups, we can almost always facilitate your chosen dates if you book well in advance.
Multi-day tours start and finish in Dublin. It is definitely a good idea to take a day or 2 in Dublin at either end of the tour to get onto Irish time and see the sights
