HIGHLY RECOMMEND KIMKIM!

Sep 30 - Oct 12, 2026
Everything from start to finish was great. We were kept busy which was perfect as we wanted to see everything!
The hosts at The Piper’s Nest and Mystical Rose were so sweet and kind and the accommodations warm and welcoming!
Initially I wasn’t a fan of going to Bushmills but it ended up being my second favorite stop on the tour (it was my favorite until we hit Killarney, I fell in love with that little town!).
All of the planning was perfect! We did opt to skip the Ring of Kerry to spend more time in Killarney, but are hoping to come back again soon and go back there!
Courtney with the School of Falconry was an amazing guide! We ended up adding walking around Ashford Castle to our agenda for that day, amazing grounds and Cong was an adorable little side quest! We loved driving and stopping to explore ruins we would come across. We learned so much about Ireland’s long history!
Dunluce castle was another thing we added on during our travels and is a must see. Incredible! Unfortunately we missed Carrickfergus castle (we didn’t realize it was on the way to our next destination and missed it on the ride) but made up for it with other stops.
Jerry at Lough Eske was a true gem! The kindest soul and he didn’t stop working! He was doing it all! And the accommodations speak for themselves. Just breathtaking.
All of our accommodations were great, we got lucky and were upgraded to the penthouse apartment in Galway at the western hotel which was a blessing for our group.
There’s so much to say, but I’ll probably run out of space. This was an amazing experience overall and I have zero complaints.
Rachel stayed in contact with us before and during the trip to check in. I would definitely recommend her for planning because she nailed what we were hoping to experience.
Hotel Reviews
BEAUTIFUL little spot. Rooms were perfect and very clean. We had views of the ocean and loved watching the sweet little cows frolicking in the fields outside our windows.
Perfect little start to our tour! Enjoyed our accommodations during our Dublin stay and close to everything we needed.
This place was breathtaking. Jerry and Barnaby provided us with a warm welcome and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. I can’t wait to go back and stay longer!
Luckily for our group we were upgraded to the penthouse at Citypointe apartments. Accomodations were perfect for our group!
Miss Jackie was the sweetest host! She made sure we had everything we needed and gave us some good recommendations to best utilize our time in Dooling and get the true Doolin experience!
The host was warm and welcoming and gave us the best recommendations for restaurants as they are in abundance in Killarney! The accommodations were gorgeous and clean, and we had a view of the mountaintops from our room. Lovely little gem!
We only had a quick night here but the rooms were beautiful and had a view of the cathedral right oitside our window. Lovely little spot and wish we had more time here!
Activity Reviews
This was one of our favorite spots! These dogs are incredibly smart and it was amazing to see them at work!
This was so informative and I was in awe of the library and the Book of Kells. Definitely one of my favorite experiences!
Beautiful scenery! Definitely an experience!
This was soooo much fun! Loved this band (bought a tin whistle 🤣) and the dancers were so entertaining! Dinner was delicious!
Such a great experience and the one I was most looking forward to! Our guide was sweet and knowledgeable and loved these amazing birds like her own! Truly enjoyed this experience!
We didn’t realize this was a horse and buggy tour (jaunting car) so we’re pleasantly surprised! The park was lovely and we loved seeing the wildlife roaming around so comfortably! Grounds were clean and I always love seeing an old castle! Daniel was a great guide and had the best sense of humor, and Dash had his work cut out for him!
