Bryan did a wonderful job as the driver on our private tour. He listened to what we wanted to see and made great suggestions. He suggested Cahir Castle in addition to our list & it was definitely a great idea. He was prompt, knowledgeable and a pleasure to spend time with traveling the Irish countryside.
Thanks so much for your wonderful review. It was a pleasure to spend the day with your group.
From a cruise ship. Early start driving through Cobh and countryside. Saw a couple of bays and forts…toured the Midleton distillery…Brian was a conversational companion and the Mercedes van was most comfortable. A pleasant day away from the big bus cruise tours and we were back at the port in plenty of time.
Thank you for the fabulous review. It was a pleasure to tour the Cork coast with you both and the distillery is a great addition to Cork tour.
This was the first day tour my family did while in Ireland and it really set a high bar. The driver/guide, Brian, was knowledgeable about various locations of Ireland and also passionate about its history, especially the ancient cultures. We had great conversations throughout the day. He did a good job driving on those challenging roads. He gave us great suggestions of where to visit (and eat) with the time we had, including some serene castle ruins off the typical path. Brian was accommodating in that my family was determined to go to Mizen Head (glad we did), a bit further than he normally goes from Cork. He said the extra two hours would result in some added cost, which I suppose was fair. I will admit that I was nervous when trying to agree on the iternary in advance; He could have been more responsive. I had already cancelled my Cliffs of Moher trip in favor of this private tour, which was a leap of faith. But it ended up being a great decision. Many great memories were formed and Brian was a big part of that. We enjoyed Clonakilty, Dromberg Stone Circle, lunch at O'Sullivan's in Crookhaven, Dunlough Castle ruins, etc.
Thanks for your great review and I'm glad you had a great experience. We do our best to respond to all queries but it can be challenging during the high season. It was a pleasure to tour with your family. All the best
This was the only private tour we booked on our vacation and we have been home a month and still say it was the best tour we took! You will not be disappointed! Brian customized the day to fit our desires (we told him countryside vs city) and he took us to many breathtakingly beautiful places south of Cork, we had lunch in Kinsale, and captured so many wonderful pictures & memories!
Thanks so much for your glowing review. It was a nice day with your family and the weather cooperated nicely. All the best, Brian
We recently returned from a 10-day cruise around Ireland and the high point of the entire cruise was our day spent touring Cork and the vicinity with Brian Boru. We had a few places that we wanted to see and then took his recommendations for the remainder of the day. He was friendly, it was easy to ask him questions, and he had a wealth of knowledge of the area and of the history of Ireland. We definitely recommend him and at some time in the future, would like to book a land tour with him. Thanks, Brian, for a great day.
Thanks so much for positive feedback and for taking the time to write it. I hope to see you next for the land tour. All the best, Brian
Brian was very knowledgeable about Cork and the Wild Atlantic Way. It was fully customizable. The Blarney Castle had beautiful gardens and grounds to explore. The Wild Atlantic coast is something not to miss. We were on a cruise, with time constraints. Brian made sure we saw all the highlights of the area.
Thanks so much for your review. It was my pleasure. All the best, Brian
After a number of bus tours with the tension of getting back on time it was great to tour on our own schedule. We had a great time seeing the titanic museum as well as the cliffs and a castle. Brian was personable and knowledgeable. It was fun chatting about his life in Ireland as well as the history.
Thanks so much for the great review. It was a fun day with your family. I hope you had a great day around Cork city.
Brian was an excellent guide. Very friendly and made sure we got the whiskey experience we wanted and made it back to our boat on time.
Thanks Ilene. This was a fun tour and thanks for the travel tips. You can never visit too many distilleries.
Brian customized the day for grandparents traveling with two teenagers. Traded Blarney Castle for a bike ride around Killary National Park with a much better castle. Made the most of our time in this beautiful part of Ireland.
Thanks for the excellent review. It's always a pleasure to plan activities and well done on completing the bike ride.
Brian was very accommodating & managed to fit In all that we wanted to do! Jameson distillery, Kinsale, Fort Charles, delicious pub dinner, and plenty of scenery!
Thanks Sheryl for the fabulous review. It was a pleasure to guide your group for the day. The hours were a bit unusual but it worked out very well.
