What the price covers
Each tour page lists exactly which admissions your ticket includes, such as the Cliffs of Moher Visitor Centre, Dunluce Castle and the Giant's Causeway. Optional guided walks are included at no extra cost. A few attractions on the way are optional and paid separately, for example King John's Castle in Limerick. No unnecessary shopping stops: more time for the places and experiences you came to see. Coaches carry Wi-Fi, and most have USB charging.
Booking and changing your mind
You can cancel or amend by email up to 24 hours before the tour's first departure time, and we refund 100% of the amount we received. Card and bank processing fees charged by your payment provider are not refundable. Booking direct on this site also carries our best price guarantee.
Common questions
Are attraction admissions included in the price?
Each Wild Rover day tour includes the admissions listed on its own tour page. These include:
- Cliffs of Moher Visitor Centre on the Cliffs tours
- Titanic Experience or Black Taxi Political Tour (one option, chosen when you book or on the day) on the Giant's Causeway & Belfast tour
- Dunluce Castle and Giant's Causeway admission on the Northern Ireland tours
Optional guided walking tours at key stops are included at no additional cost. Not every attraction on a route is included: entry inside Kilkenny Castle, King John's Castle in Limerick and the Giant's Causeway shuttle bus, for example, are paid separately.
What is your cancellation policy?
You can cancel or amend your tour up to 24 hours before the tour's first departure time.
Notice must be given by email, and we refund 100% of the amount received.
Card or bank processing fees applied by your payment provider are outside our control and are non-refundable.
