Tour Ireland in a Small Group – Experience More

Whether you’re dreaming of a 5-day adventure in the Northern Coast, a 7-Day Relaxed Wild Atlantic Way Tour or a Full Irish 13-day journey around the island, our Small Group Tours of Ireland are designed to help you see more, connect more deeply, and enjoy every moment without the stress of planning. From active tours of Ireland to cultural and historical explorations, our trips cater to a wide variety of travellers—solo adventurers, couples, and seniors alike. No matter your background or travel style, our small group dynamic creates an inclusive, friendly environment where everyone feels welcome.

You’ll travel in style aboard our luxury mini coaches, designed for comfort with panoramic windows and space to relax. From 2 to 16 guests, you’ll enjoy a more personal, flexible travel experience than a typical coach trip to Ireland. Expect a blend of guided city sightseeing, local culture, scenic drives, and optional active experiences like gentle hikes, sea kayaking, or a castle stroll—at a pace that suits you.

Expert Local Irish Guides & Unique Insights

Our hand-picked Irish guides aren’t just expert drivers—they’re warm, knowledgeable locals who breathe life into every corner of Ireland. With deep roots in the communities we visit, they’re storytellers, wildlife spotters, and cultural ambassadors all rolled into one.

Explore the dramatic coastline of the Wild Atlantic Way, the vibrant streets of Dublin, and the stunning landscapes of Northern Ireland, including castle tours, scenic hikes, and cultural gems most tourists miss. Your guide will be there throughout the day to ensure every moment is enjoyable and tailored to your interests, whether you’re sipping a pint by the fire in a cosy pub or hiking along a cliffside trail.

Unforgettable Stays & Genuine Irish Hospitality

Instead of large, impersonal hotels, we stay in locally-owned guesthouses and boutique inns, often run by families for generations. These charming spots are full of character and allow you to experience authentic Irish hospitality. Our smaller group size gives us access to unique, high-quality accommodations in off-the-beaten-path locations—ensuring your stay is as memorable as your daily adventure tours.

Expect hot showers, hearty breakfasts, and friendly conversations with locals who are proud to share their culture and traditions. Whether you’re relaxing by the fire or chatting with your host, you’ll feel right at home.

💚 Our Guests Love Us!

We found this trip to be a good balance between seeing the top spots and then having time on our own to appreciate them.This trip incorporated the key places we were interested in. It offered a comfortable balance of time driving, sightseeing and rest breaks. Anthony's passion for the geography of this area and his knowledge of its history meant we felt connected to this land. He listened to the needs of the group and was inclusive and adaptable. It was clear he wanted everyone to have a great experience. Anthony gave great advice about the little things that mean so much; where to eat, where the music will be and where the toilets are! He was fun, entertaining and personable and a great tour leader. Would recommend. Five stars!

Thinking back, it really was the best trip of my life. Our tour was so well organized, we saw stunning landscapes, towns, architecture. Rooms, bus, food and our group was wonderful. Sean our driver guide is so funny he kept us laughing. He was constantly trying to meet our needs, make sure we were having fun and stay on schedule. Ireland is beautiful, friendly, clean, modern and there is music everywhere. 40 shades of green. During our journey Sean would share stories of the region or town we were going to and then he'd play a song. There's an Irish song for everything. He taught us some Gaelic and words to some songs and sometimes the whole bus would be singing. We were so happy. I highly recommend this trip.

Amazing 10 day tour of Ireland This was our first small group tour and our first bus tour. Our driver Lee set a real high bar for future travels. He seemed to have a magical knack for always getting us wherever we were going ahead of the crowds and was super personable to talk to during the driving portions. He was so knowledgeable about anything we might ask during the trip (and the patience of a saint, lol). The company had a similar group traveling on another bus and I met the driver of that bus, Anthony, and he also seemed like a great guy to chat with. After having seen the roads in Ireland first hand, I can't recommend enough going with a bus tour and I find it hard to imagine you would find a better tour operator than these guys. Thanks for the amazing vacation!
