All in all, the tour was a worthwhile trip. I’d recommend for anyone that is new to Ireland and wants to experience something other than Dublin.

Fantastic tour. I really liked the small group rather than a large one. Jennifer and Rob did such a great job! Jennifer gave lots of history as we drove and played good Irish music as well. Well worth the money!

A tour not to be missed by any Ireland visitor. Our tour was lucky because the weather was great and we enjoyed the 1 1/2 hour cruise on Ireland's only fjord. Beautiful scenery,very informative with an exceptional tour guide with a great sense of humor. It was one of my favorite tour on my three visits to Ireland. Made for a very long day sitting on the bus across Ireland but well worth it and unforgettable.

The best parts of this bus ride through Connemara were the beautiful Kylemore Abbey and nearby fjord ferry ride. Both of these experiences fit with the Extreme Ireland Tour brand. We also saw plenty of the shockingly beautiful Connemara landscape. The portion of the trip that takes the bus into late afternoon traffic into Galway City for shopping makes no sense and is not a good use of time. The tour guide never gave us the big picture of our journey and even in his words said his jokes and music were terrible. The trip was 2 hours longer than the billed 12 hours. Also the tour guide teased that we may see dolphins on the fjord ferry ride. When we reported there were no dolphins he said there are never dolphins. This tour needs improvement.
