General Testimonials

From the moment I met John my Railtours Ireland guide in the yellow jacket I was at ease. I was greeted with the most genuine excitement and he immediately made sure I was checked in and had everything I needed to make my day trip a success and as stress free as possible.
On our rail trip from Dublin to Galway John made sure all my questions were answered, that I was educated and informed about not only my destinations that day but also Ireland in general! I learned so much about local travel and the many other amazing destinations Ireland has to offer. John went out of his way to make sure my day was a success and I was able to see everything I wanted to and more.
On my return to the train station at Galway I was greeted by John and another Railtours guide who both were there to assure myself and two other travelers coming from another trip were safe and had everything we needed to get back to Dublin easily. Again more great conversation was had and all of our Ireland travel questions were answered with ease.

If you are interested in Ireland and rail travel (the best way to experience the country in my opinion) do not hesitate to book with Railtours Ireland! You will be well taken care of and they will all go above and beyond to make sure your travel is a success and memorable.

The beauty, history and variety of this tour was excellent. Our guide offered the best of Irish humor, cheerfulness and intelligence. The stops were beautifully arranged to allow enough time to explore the sites without feeling either rushed or too slow. The only time in Galway was the evening, but that is when the city comes to life.

My tour was absolutely fabulous and the tour guide John Todd Could not have been
better. He was very well informed all the information and I learn very much on this trip.
Highly recommend

We did the 6 day "Best of the West Tour" and it was insanely beautiful! The stops along the way were just the right amount of time to explore, eat and relax in the Irish scenery.

We had a great trip for three day tour and wish that we had time for the four day tour.The whole thing was Wow! We were given friendly knowledgable tour guides who were ever courteous and brilliant at thier jobs and professions,We were escorted by rail and bus and saw magnificent castles which had been restored to thier original pristine grandeur and estates and of course the amazing Cliffs of Moher which was truly magnificent.On the third day we were taken by plane to the largest of the Aran Islands where we saw the magnificent ancient settlements from the Bronze Age.We love the whole tour and were sad when it came to an end.We love the whole tour and were sad when it came to an end.Please do experience this beautiful tour!
