"This Butlers Tour Co. met our expectations and then went further"
Des Corbett

Our family plan was to explore the Wild Atlantic Way, beginning in Dublin and then heading from Kinsale to include stops in Kenmare, Dingle, Doolin, Cliffs Of Moher and Galway.

What a task and Butlers Tours provided creative opportunities to master all of our interests.

Claire was our Key contact with Butlers Tours and was totally inspired and creative in building our Itinerary which we enjoyed 100%.

And then there was Des our driver, who was versatile in responding to our needs and requests.

Des was quite frankly an anchor, an amazing source of knowledge, passionate about Ireland’s unique history and important historical events.

This Butlers Tour Co. met our expectations and then went further with encouragement to help enjoy our family’s special adventure together.

"Truly, Hiring Butlers Tours Was The Best Decision We Made For Our Ireland Adventure"
Graveyard

The bus and our driver, Liam, were absolutely fantastic.

Truly, hiring Butlers Tours was the best decision we made for our Ireland adventure.

The bus was beautiful and immaculately clean, and Liam was wonderful.

He took such good care of us. We loved the tidbits of Irish history he shared along the way, and really appreciated the efforts he made to play some Irish music for us.

Our trip would not have been the same without him.

"We absolutely had the best time on our Butlers Tour!"
Cobh

We absolutely had the best time on our Butlers Tour!

Claire was excellent in helping me plan the perfect surprise trip for my family to celebrate the many milestones we had this past year.

From the moment we arrived at the airport to the moment we had to leave, we felt like royalty!

Our driver, Paul Byrne, was the perfect choice for us and truly was one of the biggest contributors to our positive experience! He was kind, knowledgeable and, above all, very patient with our group :) We feel so lucky to have met him.

He got us everywhere we needed to go safely and quickly but, what really made the difference for us, was that he went above and beyond to show us lesser known/hidden gems along our journey.

This was my family's first time in Ireland so we had a LOT of questions and he handled them all with impressive knowledge and ease. He was also very flexible with us when it came to our timing throughout the days and it was very much appreciated by our entire group.

We loved all of our excursions and didn't feel like we 'missed' anything we would have really wanted to see.

It was also a seamless experience using our vouchers to get into everything - it was certainly worth it to have all of that booked in advance, especially when traveling with a group!

Overall, I loved my experience working with Butlers and will definitely be recommending them to all of my friends and family go forward!

"We highly recommend Butler Tours to anyone thinking about using a tour company"
Graveyard

Our original plan was to rent two cars or a large van for our family vacation in Ireland but after hearing some positive feedback about tour companies, we decided to utilize Butlers Tours instead.

That decision turned what would have been a good vacation into a great one!

Pat, our driver, took great care of us and made us feel like part of his family. For nine days, he safely drove us to the destinations we had requested and suggested many others that made the daily trips much more interesting.

Note - due to driving restrictions, Pat needed one day off and his replacement, Mike, filled in seamlessly.

Pat also gave us recommendations for restaurants and made reservations when needed.

Having our family in one vehicle and not worrying about driving or parking made the entire trip stress free. Sara, who coordinated the logistics, along with Pat were knowledgeable and very personable.

We highly recommend Butler Tours to anyone thinking about using a tour company.

"His knowledge of the sites, towns and history is bar none"
Cobh

Michael O’Mahany, driver extraordinaire of Butler Bus proved to be true Gem.

We had 19 family members and close friends on a 10 night tour of the Midlands, West and South of Ireland.

His knowledge of the sites, towns and history is bar none.

Such a pleasant man. I’d recommend him to anyone that wants a pleasant tour of Ireland.

He’ll be Mick to everyone, when he drops you back at the Airport

"I highly recommend Butler Tours for a great trip"
Graveyard

We used Butler tours for a family trip June 23-July 5, 2024. It was awesome.

Our private driver, John O’ Donovan was kind, accommodating, and knowledgeable. And John has a great singing voice. He also taught us about hurling, of which we knew nothing. And taught us Irish as we drove along! He knew facts and history for everywhere we went. If we were early for a scheduled activity he knew places to stop to fill in the extra time. Highly recommend John.

We are a family of 15. 8 adults and 7 children (6-16). The private van/ bus was perfect. Spacious and comfortable for everyone. It even had chairs that faced each other with a table between, so our older grandkids started playing poker as we drove along. So many things to see and do.

This was the first trip for our grandkids and they had a ball. From castles to walking around Galway, Killarney, and Cork, they loved it. Also, I highly recommend going to Cobh. Great town and would love to go back.

Claire with Butlers was our contact. She set up our itinerary and then we tweaked it somewhat. Hotels were booked for us and checkin was easy.

She also booked our activities and dinner reservations. Thank you Claire!

I highly recommend Butler Tours for a great trip.

"I highly recommend Butlers and wish I could give them 10 stars! "

From the moment I began booking our family trip, Claire McCarthy made the process so easy.

She is professional and knowledgeable. She responded quickly, and had wonderful suggestions to make our trip the best it could be.

Our tour guide, Peadar Homan was wonderful. He was very professional, knowledgeable, flexible, and provided the perfect advice to our group.

He was AWESOME and went above and beyond!!!

Our trip was absolutely perfect thanks to Butlers employees!

I highly recommend Butlers and wish I could give them 10 stars!

"John was so knowledgeable about each little town and county"
Graveyard

Butler tours and John Carey our driver/guide did an excellent job.

John was so kind, courteous, flexible and went out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed. A true Irish gentleman!

John was so knowledgeable about each little town and county and told us lots of little things about the areas we traveled through, it was very interesting.

One evening, he suggested that we go see the Celtic Steps show and we are very glad we did because it was wonderful!

It was a once in a lifetime trip! The sheepdog experience, Kingdom Falconry and Cliffs of Moher were all magnificent.

Several of us really liked the distillery and brewery tours. T

hanks again John and Butler Tours for an amazing experience.

"Using Butlers Tours is the best possible way to see Ireland and I highly recommend them."
Cobh

Wow! We had a great visit to Ireland.

Using Butlers Tours is the best possible way to see Ireland and I highly recommend them.

I corresponded with Martina for months while planning our visit. Her ability to manage so many details is amazing. She helped plan our visit day-by-day and she is very knowledgeable, thorough, and efficient. She made the planning easy and stress-free. I will definitely ask for her assistance in planning our next trip to Ireland.

Our driver-guide was Eamon. He was absolutely incredible and went above and beyond every single day.

We didn’t have to worry about a thing while we were with Eamon. He quickly learned our personalities and interests which made it possible for him to help us make the most of every day.

He clearly knew what we would enjoy the most wherever we were and went out of his way to make things happen.

Lastly, not having to drive in Ireland is priceless. We just sat back and enjoyed the beautiful scenery while Eamon expertly drove us from place to place.

We will plan our next trip to Ireland far enough in advance to guarantee being with Eamon again. It was hard to say goodbye to him at the end of our trip.
