5.00Our tour guide Ian was absolutely incredible, so knowledgeable and so passionate! Every stop was engaging, and we left with so much more appreciation for the area. Our driver Krishna was equally great. He made sure we arrived safely to each destination. I highly recommend this team. Sara Trevino party of 6.

5.00Krishna & Ian were excellent. A great, informative and enjoyable tour. Ian was very personable, interesting and knowledgeable. Krishna was also very personable and very conscientious about our safety while he was driving. We laughed often with them. The experience at the Collins farm was truly a once in a lifetime memory! We thoroughly enjoyed our tour!

5.00This was our first ever organized tour. We were more than pleased! Ian and Krishna made the day more than we had imagined. They were friendly, welcoming, and incredibly skilled, each in their own role. They were responsible for making the day (our first full day in Ireland together) one of our favourite experiences of a two-week trip. Originally, I had intended to book another trip that included Glendalough and Kilkenny. I was grateful for Viator's more detailed itinerary on the website, as I noticed the other tour allowed just one hour at Glendalough (a place I knew would be a favourite). This tour allowed enough time at each location and was a perfect mix of geography and history, and a fantastic introduction to the landscape and history of the area outside of Dublin. Although the stop at the sheep farm was not high on our list, the farmer and his animals made it a lovely, educational highlight and end to the day. We were so impressed with the Wild Rover Tour. Ian was outstanding, and Krishna was amazing on the roads - we had a front seat and can attest to his talent! We waited to write this review until we were back in Canada... just to make sure our enthusiasm was not due to a "first day" experience. Our day trip with Wild Rover has held up as a true highlight of a full two weeks in Ireland. Thanks so much! Carol and Ben
Amazing experience!

5.00Incredible experience all around. Learned so many facts about the areas we visited which helped make it come alive. Overall I thought it was a near-perfect trip, although more time in Kilkenny would have made it better. The sheep dog demonstration was so cool!!
Highly Recommend this Experience!

5.00We had an incredible time touring with David! He did a fantastic job of bringing the history of the area to life, keeping us completely engaged and entertained from start to finish. Beyond being knowledgeable, he was exceptionally polite and went out of his way to give us great recommendations for other spots to visit during our stay. I would definitely recommend him.
