5.00Do you enjoy a knowledgeable driver who picks you up at the airport and within minutes is then taking you on a personal tour to check all the boxes you want to see, in the timeframe you need? Do you enjoy a drink at a pub (or two) for lunch and still want to enjoy your day? Go to the Jameson distillery and be able to leave all of your belongings and not worry about how much whiskey you consumed at the taste testing ? Do you want the ability to decide where you thought you wanted to go isn’t what you actually wanted to do and be able to jump in the car and head somewhere else? If you are like us - hit the book now button! Darren is amazing and you will be just as happy as we are that we lucked out with him as our driver!

5.00Incredible tour guide: Darren Haddock! We had a great day. Darren picked us up in a clean, comfortable car. We asked for changes in the itinerary and without a blink, Darren accommodated all changes. He is witty, well informed and knows the area very well. He had great food recommendations for lunch. Highly recommend booking with Darren Haddock. You will not be disappointed.
