General Testimonials
“Outstanding experience from start to finish”
This trip far exceeded our expectations. Railtours covered every possible base to make our experience one of the best. The hotel in Killarney was top-notch and the tour guides were great. But, John and Andrew provided us with so much information in such a friendly way that we will always remember them for taking outstanding care of us during our 4 day adventure. These two gentlemen treated us like friends and answered every question. The trains and buses were always clean and they had someone lock up our luggage in Galway for the 2 hours we had when transferring from the tour bus to our train back to Dublin.
We would recommend Railtours Ireland First Class to anyone. A great way to experience the beauty of this amazing country ☘️🇮🇪☘️
“A wealth of knowledge”
"I did the 4 day tour spending 3 nights in Killarney. I had 3 guides Bob, Batt & Brendan, all three had a wealth of knowledge throughout the week and especially enjoyed Batt’s singing haha! How they retained so much information to keep everyone up to date, I tip my hat to ya! In true Irish weather you never ceased to fail on keeping the week nice and wet. Thank you guides and Railtours Ireland for the enjoyable week on my first time in your beautiful country.
Sláinte thank you for all the Guinness!!!"
“Highly recommended way to explore ”
We had a wonderful experience on the "The Great Southern & Western Coast" Tour out of Dublin starting Easter Monday. Rail travel was pleasant and scenic, the excursions were interesting and varied.
The tour guides were personable, knowledgeable, and entertaining. We especially appreciated Bob Beatty for his historical knowledge and anecdotes - as well as his good communication and coordination starting our tour out of Dublin. Also, Maurice with Devos tours out of Killarney as both a driver on "Ring of Kerry" and guide and driver to the Dingle Peninsula. Such a warm and engaging personality with a deep knowledge of the region and history. And Brian was a friendly and attentive host returning from Galway to Dublin on rail.
Also, our accommodations at the International Hotel in Killarney exceeded our expectations; including the staff and the breakfast. We were given a room in the newer wing and were very pleased.
Irish Railtours is a highly recommended way to explore and enjoy the friendly people and beautiful countryside of Ireland! Thank you again

“A Pleasant Experience”
I came to Ireland not knowing anyone there and not having a plan because I basically wanted to get away from the hustle and bustle of things for a while. Still, I thought I should at least see some of the major tourist destinations in Ireland and so I chose a four-day Railtours trip to the south and west of Ireland. It was a delightful, well-organized, and well-escorted tour (even if I had a bit of trouble with some of the guides' brogues at times!)
“Thank you for a very successful visit to Ireland”
Our four day tour ended on Sunday evening, thank you for a very successful visit to Ireland. We were very impressed by all the tour guides, they were enchanting and had an absolute passion for their specific objective. We received first class treatment from everyone, the transfer service between cities was invaluable. The most treasured commodity is personal attention which we received in abundance from every operator. highly recommend Railtours
“Amazing Trips!!!”
We took several day trips with Railtours including, Belfast/Blarney Castle, Giant causeway, Cliffs of Moher and Ring of Kerry. All of these trips were well organized, great tour guides with amazing knowledge of the areas, and the scenes were breathtaking. The train and the buses were comfortable, and they chose great places to stop and eat. VERY VERY pleased!!!!
