Robbert was a great tour guide with many funny anecdotes. Great story teller! Beautiful sights and views in the mountains and at the lakes. Learned quite some about Irish history as well. Would highly recommend!

My most favorite part of the trip was our first stop in Glendalough, even though we had only 1 hour to see everything (I had to power walk/run to make it happen) and I think we should have had ideally 1.5 hours there to not feel pressure to be late. Another interesting place was Guinness Lake, while everything that came afterwards, was a bit boring. My least favorite part was hiking, so for the next time I would probably only stick to Glendalough and go somewhere else for the rest of the day.

Great tour, would highly recommend. Scenic drive from Dublin, with commentary from our guide Robin. Followed by mountain walk, stop over for lunch and tour of Glendalough. Robin has great knowledge of the area and shares this with enthusiasm.

Our group of 6 people loved our day trip to Wicklow and Glendalough!! The scenery was beautiful and the hikes took us to beautiful vistas. The food at the lunch stop was fresh and delicious with lots of nice salad side options. The Guinness Lake area was a highlight! Our guide Robert was fun and funny and a wealth of knowkedge! I definitely recommend this day trip
