Dublin to Wicklow, Glendalough Small Group Tour with Horse Riding

I expected to see more scenic views but most was just walking through the woods and the need to trim branches as I had to keep ducking. Also would’ve like the chance to trot since I have the experience as one in a group did but they didn’t give me the option.

We had a great experience doing horseback riding in this tour. Horses were gentle and was good with us, beginner riders. Wicklow mountain tour was also wonderful. Really recommend this tour

Horseback riding was fun and the scenery was beautiful! Quick stops at Guinness Lake and in the Wicklow Mountains for photo ops were nice, as well. Glendalough was a nice, short hike around the lower lake, and the Monastic Settlement ruins were interesting to see. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly.

Riding Mikey the horse was absolutely amazing!! So loved that experience. We had 2 hours of this activity and then onto beautiful sights and the stops were more than enough. Our driver Derrick was a delight and I'm very happy that we utilized the service.

Fabulous Day in the Hills! On time, super guide/driver, excellent stories/history/landmark information We did the horse riding and it was a truly awesome experience Small numbers made it that much better!

Horse riding - excellent fun, but possibly could have had little more instruction for novices. Make sure you wear jeans! Although appropriate shoes were provided which was greatly appreciated. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable of the area. Great fun even if chocolate didn't seem to like me. Drive - The driver made the journey all worth while by sharing his knowledge and humour it made even the M50 enjoyable. Scenery was fantastic so make sure you get a window seat! Lunch - lots of nice options for lunch in quaint recommended cafe. However there were other places to eat if this wasn't for you. Lake - Lots of history and plenty of free time to explore if you wish. If you aren't a walker there are plenty of spots at the hotel to sit and enjoy refreshments. Again driver was super helpful in advising on options for our free time here. But it was very busy with tours and possibly due to the heatwave weather. Personal note the driver kept everyone running to time and well organised. He kept us suitably informed all along the way to each activity, even with 3 separate groups of us doing different activities.

This was fun. Be on time - early, really. They load up fast. First stop was stable for the led horse ride. The shuttle leaves with part of the group that does not choose to ride. After riding you are picked up and brought to small town for quick lunch. There are a couple shop in the area. Back on shuttle to a scenic bridge for quick stop, then the lake which you view from street above then a longer stop at a small town area where you can shop, walk to lakes, visit an old cemetery and church built in 1214. Then load up and drive is about an hour back to Dublin. Guide points out relevant spots along the way and we returned around 5p. I had 2 teens (16&19) with me. They thought it was a little long - mostly the last stop but had fun and got good photos. I wish we brought a small cooler with water and snacks. Bring a portable phone charger so you can take plenty of photos. There is a toilet at stable and the lunch stop and last stop have toilet areas.

The horse ride was my favourite part! Meetup point was straightforward. Wicklow and Glendalough were just so beautiful! I would do this again with friends or family :)

Amazing experience! From the horseback riding, immaculate views, to the excellent driver with history of the Irish country along the way.

Went on this as a day trip from Dublin to get a horseback ride in and get out of the city. Really nice people, felt a bit rushed in and out the door but that was your day timing. Trail ride is a very low key plod along as most are but a pretty countryside. Then time in Glendalough was gorgeous. Recommend for sure
