Great way to see a lot of Ireland in 5 days
We had a great time in the 5 day trip. Very well organized and moderately active - we saw a lot in 5 days. And having biking kayaking and walking was a great way to experience the countryside. Breda told rich stories that provided context to what we were seeing. She is passionate about her work as well as Ireland and its history and culture.
Breda was really great!
Trip can be for most ages and fitness levels.

Spectacular Irish Journey
5-DAY SPECTACULAR SOUTH AND WEST TOUR
Our experience was as promised.....SPECTACULAR. Such an amazing country and wonderful opportunities to explore it. Our tour guide, Pat O'Mara, made our trip extra special by sharing his knowledge and experience as a guide, as well as personal by providing insights from his unique perspective of Ireland as his home country. We signed up for the active adventure tour and he did an excellent job of tailoring each experience to each individual's level of ability. Pat made sure we knew what to expect at each point of the journey, so we never felt unprepared. The size of our tour group was comfortable and we really enjoyed the companionship we had on the journey. Strongly recommend this tour if you want to see Ireland for its beauty, proud heritage and strength as a nation!

Fabulous Overland Ireland tour
What a wonderful experience! I’ve longed to visit Ireland but was concerned about driving on the “wrong side” of the road. The Overland Ireland tour took this concern completely away by using a terrific driver (the incomparable Pat O Mara) in a small (15 person), clean, new Mercedes coach. My adult daughter and I loved the five day South/ West spectacular tour. Our guide (again the fabulous Pat) was a fountain of Irish history and folklore. We learned about Irish fairies, standing stone circles, castle and folly construction, Irish sports and the rivalry between counties, and of course the role of the famine and English rule. As a history teacher I loved all this added depth when viewing the gorgeous Irish scenery as we drove from one stop to the next. The provided accommodations were very clean and small boutique type lodgings with excellent breakfasts. A special highlight was the border collie demonstration and lamb feeding. Also the kayak adventure in Dingle bay.
This tour was booked as an “active” adventure but alternative plans were always available for those not up to the scheduled hiking, biking and kayaking scheduled. For those looking for a more strenuous adventure, this isn’t for you. But for those wanting moderate level exercise in the beauty of Irish parks, with a more limited time frame to spend in Ireland, this tour is for you. Suggest spending 1-2 days in Dublin either before or after the tour as this particular tour does not cover Dublin.

Thank you as well for highlighting the flexibility of the active tour style. We always want guests to feel comfortable enjoying the experience at their own pace while still making the most of Ireland’s beauty and adventure.
We truly appreciate you travelling with us and taking the time to share such detailed feedback and recommendations for future travellers.
We hope to welcome you back to Ireland or Portugal again someday for another adventure.

Excellent time in Ireland on 5 day tour with our guide Cathal!!
Just returned from a fabulous guided tour with Cathal McElearney in South and West Ireland. Although it rained every day and all day, Chathal made it a fun and exciting trip. Our hotel accommodations were warm and inviting. We had plenty of time for sightseeing and shopping along with excellent food and drinks! The active tour was lots of fun and if someone decided not to participate in a specific activity, there were many other options. We will definitely return for more small group tours with Cathal!!

5 day active tour
We did the 5 day active tour with Pat and it was a wonderful experience. Pat was the best tour guide we could have wished for. He was not only kind, conscientious, and knowledgeable, but also very fun and entertaining. The group we toured with were also wonderful people.

My friend and I were part of the "Spectacular South and West Tour with our wonderful guide, David A! Not only did we learn about Ireland's history, we saw spectacular scenery, excellent food and forged new friendships with our amazing tour group!

Spectacular South & West Tour (Zest Tour)
A lot of fun and adventure was packed into this itinerary lead by our kind and accommodating guide, Deb. Some highlights included kayaking in Dingle Bay, hiking the Cliffs of Moher and visiting a sheep farm. Each town we visited had its own character and charm, and we enjoyed their welcoming pubs with live music and fun craic. In particular, I was glad to have Deb expertly drive us through Ireland’s twisty, narrow country roads. Each of the bed and breakfasts that were reserved for us were comfortable, well located and served delicious, hearty breakfasts.

Kari, thank you for this fantastic review! Deb clearly knows how to mix adventure, stunning scenery, and proper Irish craic. Kayaking, cliff hikes, twisty roads, and hearty breakfasts—sounds like Ireland delivered in style!
