Anne Marie listened to what we wanted to see/experience and she was on point with our personality of a Senior Golfing Man, a garden loving woman and book worm daughter. It was very flexible to change the plans of the day and/or if someone in the family was tired of the itinerary other options were found by the driver Ollie and Anne Marie. THANK YOU for making it a beautiful stress free experience. The best decision we made was to hire a driver who knew "how to drive" in this beautiful Emerald Isle and talked of its history, sports, people, etc. etc.!!

Itinerary
Earning the title of The Oldest Pub In Ireland, and perhaps soon The Oldest Pub in the World, Sean's Bar's history is a fascinating tale. Sean’s Bar has a detailed and documented history right back to 900AD. During renovations in 1970, the walls of the bar were found to be made of "wattle and wicker" dating back to the ninth century. Old coins which were minted by various landlords for barter with their customers were also found. The walls and the coins are on display in the National Museum. One section remains on display in the pub. Sean’s Bar has been researched thoroughly by the Guinness Book of Records and proudly holds the record for "The Oldest Pub in Ireland" with an official dating of 900AD. Research is ongoing into the title of "The Oldest Pub in the World"; so far, nothing older has been found.
St Ciarán founded his monastery on the banks of the River Shannon in the 6th Century. The monastery flourished and became a great seat of learning, a University of its time with students from all over Europe. The ruins include a Cathedral, two round Towers, three high crosses, nine Churches and over 700 Early Christian graveslabs. The original high crosses, including the magnificent 10th century Cross of the Scriptures are on display in a purpose built visitor centre adjacent to the monastic enclosure.

We had Kevin pick us up from the golf course, take us to the cliffs and to our hotel. The following day he took us to the airport. Extremely knowledgeable of the areas and about whiskey! Felt very safe while he was driving. Truly a great guy and would highly recommend using Kevin!
This was my second experience with Celtic Chauffeur. My first was three years prior when Fergus toured us around the Dingle Peninsula for several days. This time, I had the pleasure of riding with John for two long airport transfers (3-ish hours each). It was another great experience. The cars are immaculate, the driving is smooth, and the conversation is the best. I can't wait to get back to Ireland and utilize Celtic Chauffeur again.
John Murphy from Celtic Chauffeurs drove us from Galway to Kinsale. Great driver. Knowledgable tour guide. Above all, John is a wonderful person to ride with.
Our driver Anne Marie was amazing! She gave us so much information about the local area and welcomed us so warmly. The taxi was clean and comfortable and we were provided water too! Thank you, you really made our trip !
Our driver Anne Marie, was amazing. This was more than just an airport run, she gave us so much local information and a lovely welcome at the airport. The taxi itself was comfortable and clean, we appreciated the cartons of water that were provided too!
