Reviews
Overall, it was a good tour. Just wish we had more time in Glendalough and Wicklow mountains and less time in Kilkenny. We were in a hurry walking along the trail in Glendalough to get back on time. I would have wanted more time to appreciate the scenery.
The itinerary listed 3-4 places, but in fact it only visited two attractions and there was no GUIDED TOUR. I left you and went to KILKENNY and Glendalough on my own, which was a little different from what I imagined. But KILKENNY is not as beautiful as imagined, she is very ordinary. If possible, stay a little longer in Glendalough, because the WALKING TRIAL takes at least 2 hours to complete. Also, they said we would return at 4:30, but we only arrived in the city center at 4:30, which made me feel cheated.
