Tours in Ireland: what's worth booking

Most of the best days out in Ireland take you out of the cities. Day trips carry the bulk of bookings - the Cliffs of Moher and the Burren from Galway or Dublin, the Giant's Causeway and the Antrim coast from Belfast, the Ring of Kerry from Killarney, Glendalough and the Wicklow Mountains from Dublin. Public transport reaches few of these places cleanly, so a guided coach handles the driving and adds the context you'd otherwise miss.

In the towns and cities, walking tours are consistently the highest-rated experiences. Two hours on foot with a local covers ground - Viking Dublin, the walls of Derry, medieval Kilkenny - that would take days to piece together alone. Food tours, distillery and brewery visits, and trad-music pub crawls round out the city offering.

Private tours suit families and small groups: a car or minibus that goes where you want at your own pace, which often works out well for four or more. Multi-day trips along the Wild Atlantic Way or a full island loop are there for anyone with the time.

Every tour here is bookable through Viator, with verified reviews and free cancellation on most experiences. We earn a small commission when you book, which keeps the village hubs free. Filter by category above, or pick a county to see everything local.
