Overview

Our Wild Wicklow Tour leaves the city behind, along the picturesque coast to Killiney Hill. Stretch your legs on a short walk while soaking in jaw-dropping views of Dublin Bay.

Next we’ll make a pit stop at Avoca Handweavers, for a delicious morning coffee and explore the beautiful grounds.

While the other large coach tours can't travel on the small Wicklow roads, our smaller coach heads into the real Wild Wicklow, through Enniskerry, Glencree and through Sally Gap. Be wowed by the rugged beauty of Wicklow – think lakes, mountains, and boglands that’ll leave you speechless. Stops for Insta-worthy photos along the way!

After a short stop for lunch in Laragh, we get to the highlight of the tour – Glendalough! Explore the ancient monastic site with our expert guide, then stroll along to the Upper Lake.

To finish, a complimentary tasting of Whisky is served to toast an epic day of adventure.

The Original Wild Wicklow Tour – packed with fun, laughter, and memories to last a lifetime!
