We had Brendan for 4 days to take our group of 10 around the Southern area of Ireland. He was absolutely amazing. Brendan was extremely knowledgeable. He was very accommodating and friendly! I cannot say enough about our experience with him. We shared meals with him and got to know him and he got to know us as well. Please schedule your tour of Ireland with him. You will not have any regrets.

I booked Bronze and Boru for my 60th birthday trip to Ireland, and it was hands-down the best decision I’ve ever made, and by far the most incredible trip of my life. Ireland is a spectacular country. I truly did not want to come home.
Our guide, Brendan Skelly, was outstanding. He is extremely knowledgeable about Irish history, an excellent (and very skilled) driver, and wonderfully fun, accommodating, and patient. We laughed the whole trip. My friend and I can be a handful, but Brendan took such good care of us and went above and beyond in every way.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Bronze and Boru—and Brendan Skelly in particular—to anyone visiting Ireland. You will not be disappointed!

I would give them 10 stars if Google allowed! My family of 7 just returned last night from a 9 day trip. Having Richard guide us around multiple areas of Ireland, was the best decision ever! It was so wonderful not having to worry about driving. Richard picked us up every morning in a clean van, stocked with water, fine tuned and greatly enhanced a partial itinerary we had put together and brought us to sites that were much better than the normal tourist sites. He also helped me find my grandmother's family home in a small town. He recommended the best spots for food, pubs and music, and as a history major, taught us so much at every stop - he elevated the trip for sure! Don't hesitate to book him.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
There are not enough words to express our gratitude in working with this company. Brendan, our driver, took the time to learn our interests and bucket list items and helped craft a truly unforgettable experience. It soon felt like a guided tour from a family member showing us sights we didn't even know we wanted to see, but incredibly thankful for the opportunity. We had a party of six, I recommend small group rather than large group planned itineraries! Brendan's knowledge of the country, culture and history was amazing!
Would DEFINITELY use this company again and can not wait to return as there is still so much to see and do!
I recommend:
1. Do some advance homework on some interests and things you want to do/see.
2. Do not schedule yourselves into a tight, overbooked preset itinerary.
3. Discuss amongst your party some consensus.
Brendan was able to help us craft realistic expectations and allow us to truly enjoy the trip. There was alot of flexibility and he was more than accommodating to pivot on sights to see!
Many thanks to Brendan and Bronze & Boru for being a part of an unforgettable family vacation!

We used Bronze and Boru for a private tour from Dublin to Galway, and it was an unforgettable experience. After a long flight, being greeted by Richard—a genuinely warm and friendly face—immediately put us at ease and set the tone for an exciting day of travel. His depth of knowledge was remarkable, seamlessly weaving together current politics with Irish history stretching back well before the 400s.
Along the journey, we made several thoughtfully chosen stops, each brought to life by Richard’s engaging storytelling and historical insight. When it came time for lunch, he pointed us to the perfect spot for a meal and a pint, never once making us feel rushed or stressed about the schedule.
Richard truly went above and beyond. Upon arriving in Galway, he treated us to a walking tour of the city and shared fantastic recommendations for restaurants, pubs, and even the best ice cream spots to enjoy during the rest of our trip. Our only regret was not booking Bronze and Boru for multiple days of touring.
We’ve already recommended them to several friends traveling to Ireland in 2026, and we absolutely plan to use them again when we return later this year.
