Walking Tours of Kilkenny with John Comerford
This walking tour was a...
This walking tour was a great introduction to Kilkenny. John is quite knowledgeable about the history of the area. It was a very worthwhile use of a couple of hours to get a sense of the place.

Dublin to Glendalough Wicklow and Kilkenny Tour
Highly recommend!
I purchased this tour for my family visiting from Brazil, and it truly exceeded all our expectations. Everything was well organized, and the experience was unforgettable. Highly recommend!

6-Day Magical Southern Explorer Small Group Tour
Private 5 day tour with Overland Ireland
We just got back from an amazing trip to Ireland. Dave from Overland Tours was wonderful. We started in Dublin and proceeded to Killarney, Dingle, Doolin, and ended in Galway. This was a private arranged tour. We have been talking about how Overland made our trip. Between the driving, checking us into hotels that were booked thru Overland and all the little tours within the days we visited we learned so much. We would never have had the same experience if we had tried to do this on our own. Thanks Dave - you made our trip very memorable!!
