Wow! What a day we had! Alison at ICT listened to our wants and built us a fantastic itinerary. Our two "wants" were to see the Cliffs of Moher and eat lunch in Doolin at Gus O'Connors. The itinerary she built had the 14 of us picked up right at our hotel in Athlone, travel the Irish countryside, lunch in Doolin, travel the Atlantic coast highway (spectacular views) , stop at the cliffs for 1 1/2 hours, continue up the coastal highway and be let off right back at the hotel in Athlone. The mini coach was comfortable, clean and very accommodating. Our driver Andy, was top notch. He went way above and beyond adding Irish history and facts to our experience. All in all a great day!

Based on a friend’s recommendation we got in touch with Ireland Chauffeur Travel for a personalized tour on the last five days of our ten day trip to the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. We did the east coast from Dublin on our own, but didn’t want to miss out on the spectacular scenery in the west. We worked with Alison Lonergan who gave us a very complete itinerary adding to our plans some additional sites worth seeing that really enhanced our trip. Initially we requested four days, but after seeing how “crowded” our itinerary was going to be, we added the fifth day. Alison and her team quickly modified things to give us additional ideas. They were rapid in their response and extremely professional, even when we had to change our pick up location to Kerry at the last minute. Our driver/guide was a really great guy who added so much to the personal nature of our travels. He gave us great commentary, made some recommendations on additional stops, and always pointed us to great places to eat. The fee was not unreasonable at all, especially when you consider the personalized nature of our tour and the fact that we had our driver/guide for eight hours every day. We can’t say enough about this company!

We recently completed a trip arranged by Alison L. at Ireland Chauffer Travel, the trip could not have gone better and we thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful country. The agenda Alison developed after conversations was well conceived, covering just what we had hoped, but not overly packed, allowing for leisurely travel. The scenery outside of Dublin was stunning, each day brought a different type of land, but all were equal in their beauty. The itinerary also allowed for visitation to shops and local villages, all of which were just incredible.
John H., our companion (I hesitate to use the term driver as he was much more) was very complimentary of how Alison had constructed our trip as he felt it was flexible enough to allow him leeway to augment as we went along and adjust according to our interests. John was very attentive, and is incredibly knowledgeable, and did a wonderful job fleshing out our travels. Our time with him was always enjoyable.
I would like to compliment both Alison and John for being excellent listeners, as result we had nothing but 100% positive experiences throughout our time in Ireland. There is nothing that we would change.
We particularly enjoyed Kenmare and the Park Hotel. The hotel has a wonderful personality, the staff is excellent and the setting is again extraordinarily beautiful. We felt like you should almost make it mandatory that all of your clients spend some time there.
While some may believe Ireland Chauffer Travel an extravagance, availing ourselves of Alison and John’s knowledge of the country, hotels, restaurants, local towns and shops and enjoying all in a relaxed manner made it well worth it.

We had a great 5 person, 10 day trip with Ireland Chauffeur Travel, starting and ending in Dublin, plus Kinsale, Dingle, and Galway. This trip was delayed twice because of Covid, but the communication and trip planning was consistently professional. Our driver, Bob, was excellent. He was very knowledgeable about history, culture, pubs and restaurants, and even geology. It was apparent he emphasized safety, as well as convenience. He also presented us with options for places to visit if we decided we wanted to deviate from the planned itinerary.
One place which may not be well-known by U.S. visitors was the national Famine Museum in Strokestown. We found it to be very worthwhile.
I highly recommend Ireland Chauffeur Travel.

After three pandemic-filled years, we finally returned to beautiful Ireland. Our trip was perfection in no small part due to the exceptional services provided by Ireland Chauffeur Travel. From the planning stages with the company's client relations associates to our daily outings with their professional drivers/guides, we managed to have all our site seeing/history wishes fulfilled. Our guides always made sure we were comfortable and arrived safe and sound to each destination. The office staff kept in touch with us throughout the week to confirm everything was on track. Whenever I'm in a conversation and the subject turns to Ireland, I never hesitate to recommend the services of Ireland Chauffeur Travel! Kathy G.

Our family of 7 had the pleasure of booking a 2-week trip with Ireland Chauffeur Travel and worked with them for close to 8 months leading up to our vacation. Michelle was my right-hand girl with planning and made correspondence so easy throughout the process. From booking hotels for my parents, to answering each and every question I threw her way. This trip would not have happened without her and we were so happy to actually be able to meet her while we passed through Tipperary one day!
Bob picked our group up from the airport the morning of our arrival and soon became apart of the family. Our trip spanned 5 planned stops in Galway, Ennis, Killarney, Dublin and Belfast with various day trips along the routes. Some of these locations including Connemara, Clifden, Kylemore Abbey, the Cliffs of Moher, Dromoland Castle, Dingle Peninsula, Rock of Cashel, and Giants Causeway. Bob took such great care of us and filled our days with historical, insightful, and unique information on the landscape as well as local recommendations, restaurants, pubs, and “must see” locations. He worked with us each day to make sure we got the most out of our journey and even on the days without him, we were missing him! Any obstacle that seemed to come our way, Bob was on top of the situation and didn’t miss a beat. Bob was consistently prompt, beyond helpful, and a true professional throughout the duration of our trip.
This was a once in a lifetime experience that will now absolutely have to happen more than once. We were already discussing booking our next trip before we even left and can’t wait to tell everyone about the best kept secret in Ireland. We would hands down recommended this company to everyone we know and hope others are able to have the experience we did. Thanks so much to Michelle, Bob, and the rest of the Ireland Chauffeur Travel team!

This trip was a family affair that included 10 adults, one toddler and spanned 3 generations, age 20 months to 62 years. We were ambitious and planned to cover 5 cities and meet several extended relatives throughout our 2-week visit. We knew an acquaintance that had used Ireland Chauffeur so that was our impetus to contact the business during our pre planning stage. Through sheer luck, we were assigned Kieran Elliot as our driver for our 2-week visit to Ireland. Suffice to say he was outstanding and made our trip memorable, enjoyable, delightful for all. This is my first review that I have ever written (likely my last), but Kieran was such a consummate professional, knowledgeable driver and guide, that I felt compelled to provide a brief review. This was not only my perception of our experience but also that of my entire family including my 20 month old grand daughter who thoroughly enjoyed several renditions of 'Wheels on the bus" with the wipers that go swish, swish, swish! Thank you Kieran, you were the best!

Perfect trip! This was my second time to use Ireland Chauffeur Travel. The first was with our two children in 2014. This trip we joined 4 other friends. We opted for a 10 day trip and let Ireland Chauffer Travel (IRC) plan all the details. The itinerary they proposed was perfect: Dublin to Belfast and then down the western coast. We had opted to treat ourselves to the nicest hotels and each property was amazing. Our schedule was full and we were tired at the end of each day, but our driver guide was more than willing to edit the schedule at our request when we needed some down time. Driver/guide Bob was excellent. His attention to detail, informative narrative and regard for our safety was "five star": He was prompt, courteous, well-informed and he was full of tips which helped us enjoy our trip. The travel planners took care of every detail. All agreed that the trip far surpassed expectations. I don't know if IRC could take credit for the weather, but we found the pot of GOLDen weather. Has anyone else ever gotten a tan in Ireland?

The company gave us a truly wonderful man named Tom McDonald to drive us from Dublin to Ashford Castle and around the west to south to east and back to Dublin. Not only was Tom a great driver, he was engaging, personable (i teased him about being so unfriendly), he could make friends in 2 minutes with anyone, accommodating, hospitable, flexible when we wanted to change a stop, thoughtful, and very knowledgeable about his beautiful country and it’s history. Even though we had pouring rain on several days of the trip, Tom did his best to make our travel enjoyable. He went out of his way to show us a dolman (ancient burial site). It was 6200 years old and I appreciated him thinking of it for us.
The company did a great job of arranging our accommodations and getting tickets to certain places.
We were VERY happy with Ireland Chauffeur travel and would recommend anyone use them for their travels to Ireland.

We extended an organized ten-day bus tour of Ireland by four days, August 30 – September 2, 2023, and were extremely fortunate to have found Ireland Chauffeur Travel to assist us. Sam Manton, our Private Tour Consultant with Ireland Chauffeur Travel, was wonderful and very flexible in accommodating all of our desires and putting together a fun-filled, exciting itinerary for us that included everything we wished to experience as well as many other recommended items of interest . Booking and scheduling were extremely easy, efficient, responsive, and perfectly executed. Thank you, Sam! You were wonderful to work with!
Our AWESOME driver, Michael Buckley, was a perfect match and quickly became part of our family! Always prompt and professional, Michael picked us up at 10 AM each day in a Mercedes van and dropped us off at our hotel about 6PM each evening (sometimes a little later ). During the day, he flawlessly handled our itinerary, as well as managing events that required tickets and reservations. We had to switch one day’s events entirely with another due to an illness and Michael handled that perfectly without a hitch. Michael added many interesting places to our itinerary and was always a wealth of Irish knowledge and lore, He even brought us to a quaint Gastropub in Tipperary for lunch on our last day where we were treated like royalty! In the end, we got to do everything we had hoped to and much, much more thanks to Michael (don’t forget to ask Michael to sing “40 Shades of Green” by Johnny Cash!). After Michael dropped us off at our hotel on the last day, all four of us felt sad, as though we were saying goodbye to one of our Family. Michael, thank you so much for making our vacation so wonderful and memorable!
