I wanted to do something with my family before they went back to school and I love Irish history. Had done a few walking tours of Dublin previously and really enjoyed it but decided to treat ourselves to a guided coach (MPV) tour and a day in the city. Optimum was recommended.
They did not disappoint. Despite the predictable bad weather we had one of the most memorable days I have ever had in Dublin. Mick, our driver was a gentleman and absolutely hilarious. He kept us and the kids enthralled with his stories and is knowledge was amazing. The really tailored the tour so that there was something for everyone and the kids really enjoyed it. We were picked up at home, driven to the city and back at the end of the day. Hassle free!
The vehicle (we had a Viano) was immaculately clean, they sterilize before each job, complimentary masks, hand wash etc. on board - which really put our mind at rest.
Every time we came out of an attraction Mick was there with umbrella and the wife and kids felt like royalty as he looked after them.
All in all a great service at a fair price and I would absolutely do another tour, maybe the coastal one next time.

This is long overdue with my review. I've always used this service for transportation to and from the airport and everything is just seamless. Working in the hospitality industry, I appreciate attention to detail and efficient communication. This company goes above and beyond the call of duty. I would rather spend the extra money and use them VS a regular taxi service, I am that much a fan! This was a special tour for my group. My husband and I have visited Dublin many times, but Andy gave us some suggestions of places he recommended, like the Epic Museum, and what an amazing day. Do NOT hesitate to use this company!

I'll be honest. I'm hard to impress. Rarely have I had a bad experience in all of my years of traveling the world, but this is one company who in my humble opinion never let's me down. Their level of service from booking a tour or chauffeur ride to the airport, is so seamless. Their drivers are all lovely and extremely personable and above all....on time. I've even used this service as a honeymoon gift to take the couple from their hotel to the airport. Whenever I'm in Dublin, I'm looking for ways to use them, it's THAT great!

Amazing service, all the staff were so accommodating when making my booking.
Their Covid-19 procedure gave me great peace of mind on my journey.
Mick was our driver and he had a great knowledge of all the surrounding areas on our journey, one of the nicest drivers I have come across.
I would highly recommend Optimum chauffer drive to everyone.

My husband and I are just back from a wonderful 5 day holiday to Ireland. We stayed in Dublin for 3 nights at the wonderful Merrion hotel which I could not fault at all. The location in the city centre was great as were the food and staff. Dublin is a wonderful vibrant city with great shops and restaurants we particularly enjoyed One Pico. The highlight of our holiday was our own driver and guide Liam who was with us for the duration of our stay. My husband booked this service with Optimum Chauffeur Drive who really were fantastic. They took care of everything from recommending hotels and restaurants to organising and planning our tour itinerary and our transfer from Dublin airport to the hotel and onwards. Liam was so wonderful he really made our holiday showing us many sights off the regular tourist trail and regaling us with all the local history and folklore. We really could not get over his proffesionalism and that of the staff at Optimum. I would highly recommend their service.

This is my second time using Optimum and again I was not disappointed! Beautiful luxurious car with a fantastic driver. Last time I had Jimmy and thought I was lucky with the driver I had but I had a different driver this time, Kevin who was equally as fantastic. Their knowledge and professionalism and just the perfect Irish charm is second to none!! Highly recommend for business or leisure

We recently spent time in Dublin for the first time. What a lovely city! Because I was worried about driving, we decided to hire a driver to take us to county Monaghan where we were visiting our ancestral homeland. We looked at the reviews on trip advisor, and chose Optimum Chauffeur Drive because of it's excellent feedback. Although this was a splurge for us, it was money very well spent! Jimmy Kramer, our driver, was absolutely delightful! From the moment we met, he felt like family. Not only was the car an excellent ride, the personal service from Jimmy was what made the trip for us. My 17 year old daughters were charmed instantly by his Irish accent and by the witty quips and tidbits he offered as we drove. They literally kept a twitter feed going of all the funny things Jimmy said. He made friends everywhere we went so that we could ask the locals how to get to various off-the-beaten-path sites. This was extremely helpful to us in finding places and learning even more about our heritage. Jimmy was very professional and would be well-suited for any type of driving. Born and raised in Dublin, he knows Ireland, it's history and attractions. The staff at Optimum, Sarah and Mary, were also very helpful and professional. They answered my emails at all hours of the day and offered helpful information on accommodations, etc. If you are on the fence about whether to get a driver for Ireland, trust me! You will be so glad you did!

I had been researching Dublin coastal towns for a long time and I knew where I wanted to go but needed a flexible and knowledge driver to take my family of five there. Denis O’Connor of Optimum was that guy. We first went south towards Dalkey, Killiney and he had some additional ideas to go for lunch at Johnnie Foxes and a stop at Powerscourt. Denis knew where all the Irish stars lived and showed us their houses and told us stories in each of the towns. We then headed to the northeast of Dublin to Howth and Malahide. We planned to have a seafood dinner at one of the many exceptional seafood restaurants in Howth but our earlier fantastic meal from Foxes lunch was still with us. Denis did a wonderful job of using my itinerary and adding other great stops along the way. Lastly Denis’ Mercedes van was extremely clean and luxurious.

This is my 2nd experience with Optimum Chauffeur Drive. I have never reviewed a service twice before but we had such an outstanding experience with them that I feel compelled to do so. I visited Dublin with my husband while he was attending a conference and we were lucky enough to have 2 day tours organised for us with Optimum. I could not recommend them highly enough. We toured beautiful Wicklow and visited some wonderful locations such as Glendalough and Powerscourt. We also made the trip across to the west coast to the stunning Cliffs of Moher. Our drivers on both occasions were exceptional. Their local knowledge ensured that we saw many sites that I feel sure if we were traveling on our own we would never have known about. Jimmy and Michael were so warm and friendly, they really went out of their way to make both days memorable for our group. Optimum also looked after all of the transport for my husband’s conference and I heard nothing but great comments about how exceptionally well organised everything was. The conference organiser from my Husbands company told us she was extremely impressed with the service she had received. It really left us all with a great impression of Dublin and Ireland. While in Dublin we stayed at the Shelbourne hotel, it was superb and a really central location too.

Does this still operate? Could we book to Wicklow mountains and Glendough estate.

We are three ladies and will be arriving Dublin Airport June 7 at 8 am and taking the rail to Wesport at noon. I do not want to waste 4 hours sitting in the train station. Can you suggest a driver to show us around Dublin for those 3 to 4 hours and deposit us at the Heuston Station prior to noon? and what would be the cost?
