Be driven in comfort, style and at your own pace. Take the hassle out of trying to find your way around and discover Ireland’s hidden gems! We love what we do and we will ensure that you spend the most memorable time while in Ireland. From Ken and Darcy Washington, USA - Driver Guide : Ben Your stories and history lessons were timely and interesting, your intuition to allow Darcy and I to spend certain times with just the two of us and also your intuitive timing on when to involve yourself, coupled with your sense of humour, made the trip more like spending a day with a friend vs. a driver guided tour. It is a talent to balance professionalism, comfort, flexibility and gentle guidance to ensure we got to see all we wanted to see (and change in the middle of the trip to make it even better) - all of this for a fair price. We are grateful and fortunate to meet you and wish you continued success. Best of luck.
Get picked up from your accommodation anywhere in Dublin. We start your day by taking the coast road south out of Dublin passing through the port of Dun Laoghaire and then through Sandycove, home of the James Joyce Martello Tower and Museum open to the public.
Then on through the picturesque village of Dalkey and the Vico Road, home to many celebrities such as Bono, Enya and Van Morrison to name but a few.
We then enter County Wicklow, the “Garden of Ireland”. Our first stop is the magnificent Powerscourt Estate, noted for its house and gardens. Powerscourt House was voted in the top 10 houses by National Geographic and the gardens were voted in the top 3 gardens by National Geographic. Currently owned by the iconic Slazenger family, the estate dates back to the 13th century. In 1974, the house was gutted by a fire. By 1996, it was partially restored to its original glory and is now open to the public along with the breath-taking gardens. It is recognised as one of Ireland’s top spots to visit.
We offer you the freedom to alter our suggested itinerary to fit your needs and time restrictions... As this is a private tour you have the option to visit other parts of Wicklow such as Powerscourt Waterfall. Set at the foot of the Wicklow Mountains, Powerscourt Waterfall is Ireland’s highest at 121m (398ft.) and is 5km from Powerscourt Estate and Gardens. There is plenty of wildlife to enjoy at the waterfall including birds such as the Chaffinch, Cuckoo, Raven and the Willow Warbler and the Sika Deer. You may even spot a red squirrel or two.
From there we head through the rolling hills and valleys of Wicklow to Glendalough’s “Valley of 2 Lakes”, home of St. Kevin. In the lower glen, you will find the ancient monastic city built by the followers of St. Kevin and see the remains of the Cathedral, round Tower and St. Kevin’s Church, as well as the graveyard and various dwellings.
We head back to Dublin via the Military Road through the Wicklow and Dublin Mountains. As you pass through the bog lands known as the Feather Beds you will see Loch Dan and Loch Tay, and the famous Guinness estate.
We finish the day on top of Dublin Mountains at Johnnie Fox's Pub, the highest pub of Ireland where you can enjoy a fresh pint of Guinness!

Kieron provided an amazing tour, not only making sure to show us the must-see tourist locations, but also customizing our tour per our personal requests. A big highlight of the tour was a final meal and drinks at Johnny Fox’s, the highest pub in Ireland…delicious!!!

Unfortunately our tour didn’t start off great. No one was there to collect us, so I called the company who said he was already there, once I went and asked all the guides waiting, I found Timothy but he’d been given the wrong name. He was very informative and we had a great day but the fact that his hearing aids (Which I also wear) were broken and he wasn’t going to replace them, made it very difficult, as he couldn’t hear any of our questions.
Dear Lesley, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are very sorry to hear that your tour did not begin as smoothly as it should have, and we sincerely apologise for the initial confusion with the name on the booking. We fully understand how frustrating that must have been. While we are glad to know that you enjoyed the day with Timothy and found him informative, we are also very sorry that communication was difficult due to his hearing aids not functioning properly. This is not the standard of service we aim to provide, and we will be addressing this internally to ensure it does not happen again. Your comments are very valuable to us, and we appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention. We hope we will have the opportunity to welcome you again in the future and provide you with a much smoother experience from start to finish. Dublin Chauffeur Services Team
Fantastic day exploring the Wicklow area, plenty to see and do. Visited the fabulous Powercourt Gardens, Waterfall, Ancient Monestry ruins and lunch at the Heather Restaurant which was fabulous
Thank you so much for your kind words, it sounds like a truly special day out in Wicklow! We are delighted the itinerary ticked all the boxes and that The Heather Restaurant was a highlight. We hope to see you again soon! Dublin Chauffeur Services Team
May you be fortunate enough to have this car service in your lifetime! And if you're really lucky, a beautiful man named, BOBBY CARPRANI as you driver! We requested a van for 5 and an eight hour scenic drive through mid- Ireland. What we received was a friend forever and the most genuine human touch, you could ever imagine. From the first point of contact, expert-level professionalism and organizing was thoughtfully in place. This company's administration is awesome! Thank you Saad, early on, for taking note of our dream list and making it a reality. I could go on an on. The memories are personal! Thank you DCS and Bobby.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're thrilled that your Wicklow Mountains & Glendalough tour was unforgettable. Bobby will be delighted to hear your kind words, and we're glad Saad and the team could help make your dream list a reality. We hope to welcome you back for more memorable experiences soon.
We spent the day yesterday touring the Wicklow Mountains Glendalough and Powerscourt. Our tour guide William was a great guide with a great deal of local knowledge. He was good at allowing us plenty of time to explore at each stop. He picked the perfect spot for lunch that was a fantastic local restaurant. All in all a fun day
Thank you for the 5 star review! We look forward to serving you again in the future. Kind regards, DCS Team
A wonderful day trip with George. He is a knowledgeable, cheerful and courteous driver who went out of his way to ensure we had a great time.
Thank you for the 5 star review! We will let George know you left him such a great review. We look forward to serving you again in the future. Kind regards, DCS Team
I could not have been happier with this tour or with Bobby our guide. Bobby was so sweet, so engaging and so accommodating, everything you would hope he would be. We went on the tour with our 2 boys and got to see so much in 7 hours but never felt rushed or like we were in the car forever (we had recently done a private day tour in Scotland and it was nothing close to this and a bit painful towards the end). Saw so many gorgeous spots and had the perfect day. The only disappointment was we didn't book Bobby for more trips!
Hi Barbara, Thanks so much for the 5 star review. We look forward to serving you again in the future. Kind regards The Dublin Chauffeur Services Team
Glendalough was striking. Cliff was a knowledgeable & courteous driver. The Powerscourt gardens were memorably lush. the waterfall is worth the trip on itsown.
Thank you so much Peter for taking the time to post your 5 Star review on TripAdvisor we greatly appreciate it and we're delighted to know that you enjoyed your private tour in Wicklow Mountains. Kindest regards, Dublin Chauffeur Services.
