The Ultimate Guide to Private Chauffeur Tours in Ireland

Discover Ireland in comfort, style and at your own pace with Setanta Chauffeur Tours

Ireland is a country made for exploring by road. From the dramatic Cliffs of Moher and the Wild Atlantic Way to the beautiful landscapes of Killarney, Galway, Connemara and the Ring of Kerry, there is something unforgettable around almost every corner.

For visitors who want to experience Ireland without the restrictions of a large group tour, a private chauffeur tour of Ireland offers the perfect solution.

With Setanta Chauffeur Tours, you can enjoy a personalised Irish experience with your own private driver and guide, travelling in comfort and having the freedom to spend more time in the places that interest you most.

What Is a Private Chauffeur Tour of Ireland?

A private chauffeur tour gives you the freedom to explore Ireland with your own dedicated driver and guide.

Instead of following a fixed coach itinerary, your journey can be designed around your interests, your schedule and the places you want to see.

Whether you are visiting Ireland for the first time, returning to discover more of the country, travelling as a couple, with family or with a small group of friends, a private chauffeur tour allows you to experience Ireland at your own pace.

At Setanta Chauffeur Tours, we can help create bespoke itineraries covering some of Ireland’s most spectacular destinations.

Why Choose a Private Driver in Ireland?

One of the biggest advantages of hiring a private driver in Ireland is flexibility.

You don’t have to worry about driving unfamiliar roads, navigating roundabouts or finding parking at busy attractions. Your driver can concentrate on the journey while you relax and enjoy the scenery.

A private driver-guide can also help you discover places that you might otherwise miss.

Want to stop for photographs?

See a beautiful village?

Visit an historic castle?

Enjoy an Irish pub?

Spend longer at a scenic viewpoint?

With a private tour, your itinerary can be adapted around you.

Explore Ireland at Your Own Pace

Ireland is not a huge country, but there is an enormous amount to see.

Trying to fit everything into a rigid itinerary can mean spending too much time travelling and not enough time enjoying the places you visit.

A private chauffeur tour allows you to slow down and enjoy the journey.

You might spend a morning exploring Galway before travelling through Connemara, stopping at scenic locations along the way.

Another day could take you from Killarney around the spectacular Ring of Kerry, with plenty of opportunities for photographs and local experiences.

Some of Ireland’s Best Places to Visit

A private Ireland tour can be completely customised, but some destinations are particularly popular with our guests.

Dublin

Ireland’s capital is often the starting point for an Irish holiday.

Explore Trinity College, Dublin Castle, St Patrick’s Cathedral, the Guinness Storehouse and the city’s famous pubs and restaurants.

Galway

Galway is one of Ireland’s most enjoyable cities, famous for its atmosphere, traditional music, colourful streets and location on the west coast.

It is also an excellent base for exploring Connemara and the Wild Atlantic Way.

Cliffs of Moher

One of Ireland’s most spectacular natural attractions, the Cliffs of Moher offer incredible views across the Atlantic Ocean.

Killarney & County Kerry

Killarney is an ideal base for exploring some of Ireland’s most beautiful scenery.

The Ring of Kerry, Killarney National Park and the spectacular Dingle Peninsula can all be incorporated into a private chauffeur itinerary.

Connemara

If you want dramatic scenery, quiet roads, mountains, lakes and beautiful countryside, Connemara is a must.

Cork & County Cork

Cork offers excellent food, history and culture, while County Cork provides plenty of opportunities to explore the coastline and countryside.

Donegal

For visitors looking for spectacular scenery away from the main tourist routes, Donegal can be an outstanding addition to a private Ireland itinerary.

A Sample 7-Day Private Ireland Tour

One of the advantages of a private chauffeur tour is that your itinerary can be adapted to your interests.

A sample seven-day journey could include:

This is only an example. Your own itinerary can be designed around the places and experiences that matter most to you.

Luxury Ireland Tours for Couples and Small Groups

Ireland is particularly well suited to private luxury travel.

Couples can enjoy a relaxed honeymoon or anniversary trip without having to follow a large group.

Families can create an itinerary that works for everyone.

Friends can combine sightseeing with golf, food, whiskey, history and Irish culture.

At Setanta Chauffeur Tours, the emphasis is on personal service, comfort and flexibility.

Ireland Golf Tours

Ireland is one of the world’s great golfing destinations.

For golfers, having a private chauffeur means you can combine some of Ireland’s best golf courses with sightseeing and luxury travel.

Depending on your itinerary, a golf tour can include famous courses, coastal scenery, historic towns, excellent restaurants and traditional Irish hospitality.

A private chauffeur can also make travelling between courses much easier, allowing you to relax after your round rather than concentrating on the road.
