Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a luxury Irish tour different from a regular tour?
A luxury Irish tour is fully private and bespoke, tailored to your interests, duration of travel and Ireland bucket list. The tour is delivered in premium vehicles and guided by local experts from start to finish.
Are your tours completely private or will we be with other travellers?
All our tours are private. They are designed exclusively for you and your companions, with no shared schedules or fixed group itineraries.
How does bespoke itinerary planning work?
At Luxury Irish Tours we begin with a consultation to understand your interests, bucket list and travel style. We then design a custom itinerary that reflects your priorities, whether that be history, golf, castles, food or a blend of them all.
Do you provide driver-guides on luxury coach tours?
Yes. Every luxury coach tour includes a professional driver-guide that is ‘yours’ for the entire trip. On larger group tours, a separate tour guide may also travel onboard to provide additional commentary and local insight.
How far in advance should I book my luxury tour of Ireland?
We recommend booking at least 6-8 weeks in advance to allow time for bespoke planning, accommodation reservations and ticket confirmations. We recommend booking at least 3 months in advance if it is a golf trip you are planning.
What is included with a luxury tour of Ireland?
Our bespoke tours include private transportation, driver-guide services, bespoke itinerary planning, luxury accommodation options and entrance to attractions. Specific details and add-ons are confirmed during planning.
Do you arrange accommodation in Ireland too?
Yes. We partner with luxury hotels, manor houses, castles and boutique properties of various star-ratings to match your style and comfort preferences.
Can the itinerary be revised once we arrive in Ireland?
Absolutely. Your itinerary is flexible and can evolve as your journey unfolds. Accomodation is the least ‘changeable’ plan on your itinerary once you have arrived in Ireland as many properties will require non-refundable deposits up front.
Are all of your vehicles luxury class?
Yes. Our fleet includes high-end vehicles such as executive cars, luxury MPVs, Mercedes Sprinters, midi coaches and full-size luxury coaches. All touring vehicles are luxury grade and modern.
Do you provide airport transfers?
Of course. Private airport transfers are included in your luxury tour package for stress-free arrival and departure services.
Can you include special experiences like golf, whiskey tasting or historic tours?
Yes. At Luxury Irish Tours, we specialise in tailored experiences including golf itineraries, whiskey distillery visits, cultural tours and historic site exploration.
How long do luxury tours of Ireland typically last?
There is no single answer to this. Luxury tours of Ireland can range from custom day trips to multi-day explorations of Ireland’s regions, including the Wild Atlantic Way, Ancient East and beyond. Most visitors to Ireland will stay longer than a week to ensure they fit in key Irish experiences and landmarks.
Will our driver-guide share local insights and history during the tour?
Certainly. Your driver-guide is chosen for both professionalism and deep local knowledge, offering stories, context and recommendations throughout your trip. You will begin your tour with a guide and leave Ireland with a life-long friend.
Can you help with restaurant reservations and local events?
Absolutely, that’s what we’re here for! We can arrange reservations at fine dining establishments, local pubs, cultural events and hidden local favourites along your route.
Do you organise tours to both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland?
Yes. At Luxury Irish Tours, we cover the entire island of Ireland (including the north, south, west and east), affording you access to every region’s landscapes, culture and heritage.
