Catherine Donovan2024-08-04I just got back from a fabulous trip to Ireland with my husband, two daughters and son in law. We had decided last year we would take driving out of the equation and use a tour company. We did not want a large group but was looking for something for the 5 of us. We reached out to a few companies and settled with Keogh Tours. We are so happy we made that choice as the trip was everything we imagined and MORE!! Last January I went back and forth with the lovely Thelma Barrett as she worked out an itinerary that would work for our family. We had 7 days and we were focused on the Southwest of Ireland. Thelma really listened to what type of travelers we were and had many ideas which were incorporated into our itinerary. She made all of the lodging reservations and also got tickets for things that were necessary to get ahead of time. She checked in closer to our arrival and we did a little more tweaking. Every communication was swift with Thelma and Anton. The big day came and of course with any trip there is always that hope that what you expect is what you get. Well again they delivered and then some!! Seanie picked us up in Dublin the comfortable Mercedes Van. He was an absolute pleasure and so professional. He not only took us to the destinations we expected but to out of the way spots that we never would have gone to if we did this trip on our own!! He was extremely knowledgeable about Ireland and all of the history of the spots we were viewing. He was very flexible and made some changes as we went. One of the things he said when he picked us up is that the trip was our vacation and he wanted us to enjoy and do what we wanted to. We did not deviate too much only because every spot that Thelma had suggested in the beginning was spot on!! Seanie was great when it came to lunch and dinner reservations. Every day we would discuss what we may be in the mood for and sure enough we did not have a bad meal!! Every dinner spot was just superb!! When we were in Galway it was a very busy time with GAA finals and the restaurant we were interested in was sold out but sure enough between him and Thelma they were able to get us in. I could go on and on but the bottom line is this vacation was well worth every penny and without Keogh Tours that would not be possible. You will not be disappointed!! Shoot them an email for a personalized quote, and you will be glad you did!!
Julane Borth2024-07-24A high five to Thelma and Anton at Keogh Tours for arranging an amazing tour following a beautiful wedding in Gorey, Ireland. They designed and arranged a wonder-full six day vacation for us. Their drivers were kind, helpful and very well informed about the history and sites we visited. Maybe….best of all….we were never rushed. We spent as much or as little time as we wanted at the sites we visited. Unusual and appreciated was being able to change the itinerary at the last minute based on our interests and desires to spend more time than planned. A huge thank you to Keogh Tours for their personal and loving attention.
Sheila Sitler2024-07-12Thank you Thelma and Seanie for making our trip to Ireland so special! Your knowledge and cheery attitude impressed both the adults and teens in our group, and the itinerary had just the right amount of sightseeing and downtime to enable us to relax and enjoy the adventure. We appreciated your professionalism and your ability to accommodate our minor itinerary changes, as well as your help with dining recommendations (all amazing!). You exceeded all of our expectations and we look forward to seeing you again on our next trip!
Alexandra Pillari2024-07-08Excellent!!! We had the best experience with Keough Tours. Thelma was incredibly helpful leading up to our trip and provided great recommendations on where we should go based on our desires! She was flexible with us and helped to create such a wonderful custom itinerary. Our driver, Triona was SO amazing! She picked us up in an incredibly comfortable Mercedes bus, so spacious. We had the best time with her seeing Galway, Killarney, Cork - spent time at Kylemore Abbey, Connemara, Cork, Killarney, Dingle so many places we would have never seen on our own. She had so many great fun facts about Ireland, shared the best Irish music and took us to the most beautiful places. Couldn't recommend Keough Tours more!!! Highly highly recommend - must book!!!!
Scott Matejik2024-07-01My family was part of a 14 person group who was fortunate enough to hire Thelma, Anton and Keogh Tours for our 2 week Ireland adventure. Thelma made the arrangements and Anton conducted the tour and was our bus driver for our 3 family group, not an easy feat with our boisterous crowd. Thelma advised, offer suggestions and arranged tours/hotels/B&B's to make our trip go seamlessly. She arranged rides for me and a couple of other golfers to "bucket-list" courses from locations a good ways away. Everything went according to plan. Thelma is/was very responsive when we had questions, she always got right back to us. She made us feel comfortable with our "southern rim-Ring of Kerry" destinations and is an excellent front office person to help you plan your Irish vacation. Anton was our driver and tour guide and he is also outstanding. Funny, full of history, very organized, and most importantly, a great driver of the 25 seat bus on the incredibly narrow roads in Ireland. He evaluated our needs on the fly, made suggestions and recommendations/reservations for restaurants (no easy task for a group of 14) and was prompt in keeping us on track with our tours and destinations. Anton also made it easy by loading our luggage and helped with change of plans when the weather dictated. He became a friend and we were sad to say goodbye to him! Go to Ireland, experience the people, pubs, scenery, and rich history......but call Keogh Tours to make your trip memorable.
James Beidleman2024-07-01Keogh Tours made our family trip of 3 families (14 people) amazing. From Thelma helping to find the perfect hotels and tours to Anton keeping us going day and night. We had a fabulous time! Our young adults (20's) enjoyed the tours and pub crawls or "Ring of Pubs" as it was dubbed by Noah. Even our "I don't want to tour by bus" family member was pleasantly surprised and admits it was the best part of the trip. Slowing things down to two nights in a city helps to really learn and see more at each stop. You might see less cities but you get to enjoy more. Thelma helped us narrow down our city stops partly by availability (since we started late) and quality. Every place they booked was fantastic (I have reviewed them separately). And Thelma helped us narrow down tours of interest for us. While on the road, Anton suggested some slight changes to reduce driving time and picking up on our interest (and motion sickness) needs. Anton made the trip a huge success with his fun facts and tips and suggestions. He won over both the younger group as well as the older parents. Anton made the trip a hundred times better! Our family trip was a huge success thanks to Keogh Tours!
Julie Swank2024-06-08Excellent trip. It was a well- planned trip by Keogh Tours. Most importantly, Seanie, our driver and Guide, was knowledgeable (history, food recommendations, sites, etc) and extremely helpful. In addition, he was accommodating and understanding when I needed to make some lasts minute changes (for my own personal health reasons). We also made some minor changes to the itinerary as the week progressed based on our own personal preferences. Seanie went above and beyond to ensure we had a comfortable and fun trip. He was awesome to work with and we felt like he became part of the family. We would highly recommend Keogh Tours and Seanie.
Giovanni Carballo2024-06-08Our family was in Ireland for a wedding, we wanted to make a vacation out of our time there and explore all that Ireland has to offer. Keogh Tours did an amazing job in providing a well planned and stress free experience. With the utmost attention to detail, accommodating our group’s last minute requests and changes, and working around our time and the wedding, we had an amazing time. Huge shoutout to our driver and guide, Seanie, who quickly became our friend and made our time in Ireland even more memorable. This was the best way to see Ireland and a trip our family will never forget!
nhsuperc2024-05-30When considering a trip to Ireland, you need to look no further than Keough Tours. Our adventure with Keough was everything we had asked for and much more. Thanks to Thelma and Anton, we experienced an amazing tour tailored to the unique places we wanted to visit at an affordable price. Their attentiveness to detail is noteworthy. We highly recommend Keough Tours for an unforgettable Irish experience…
Michelle Murphy2024-05-13We had the most wonderful experience with Keogh Tours. Thelma and Anton are extremely professional and supported all elements of our trip. Anton and Con were great drivers and really good people. We will hire them again! 5 STARS!
