- Karen M0 contributionsBelfast Christmas Markets, Peace Wall, Murals, and Titanic Experience with Private Guide Paul SmithOur wonderful private guide, Paul Smith, met us at our hotel in Dublin. He had a very comfortable touring van. He was incredibly witty and friendly and told us great stories and, of course, all about the history of the places we were going. We set off to Belfast but made a lovely stop at Monasterboice at our request. We then drove to the historical points of interest around Belfast and we were able to sign the peace walls. We then headed to the Titanic Museum where we had a spot of lunch and toured all of the exhibits. Paul then recommended the Belfast Christmas Markets. There were over one hundred booths available with everything from sweaters to jewelry to any kind of food you might want. We were so lucky that Paul knew exactly what would delight adults and our teenagers alike. I highly recommend the Private Tour of Belfast Peace Wall and Titanic Experience, or just go for the tour of Belfast and the Christmas Markets! Thank you and Well Done, Paul!Written 19 December 2024
- Glynda K0 contributionsSetanta Tours - Superb!Paul Smith was a superb guide on a 6-day tour of Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland in September 2024. He took great care of our group of 3 senior citizens by providing a super comfortable vehicle, recommending excellent restaurants, making stops at places with clean restrooms, pacing each days’ activities appropriately, and assuring that we were safely checked in to our hotels each night. He provided much historical and cultural information about the places we visited. We had a lot of laughs, came away with great photos, and enjoyed memorable experiences. I recommend Setanta Tours with as many stars as there are stars in the sky! Glynda Knighten Poway, California USAWritten 8 October 2024

- L8436JRscottw0 contributionsExceptional Ireland tour driverPaul is an exceptional driver and host. He is extremely flexible and offered several options for sites. Highly recommended.Written 2 October 2024
- carolyndR128YD0 contributionsEnchantingI traveled to Ireland for the first time with my brother and sister-in-law in September. I can't imagine the trip without Paul! We gave him a list of must sees and he tailored a 10 day trip which included our wishes and out of the way places we would never have found and could never have driven. Lots of history, lots of pictures, and lots of fun. Long days but no early rising and plenty of stops to regroup, adventure and lunch. Paul's knowledge of every city, village as well as rural life was invaluable. We learned of the traditional life as well as current life styles. We were always given recommendations for pubs and restaurants at the end of our day. If you want a guaranteed outstanding visit to an enchanted Ireland, Paul is your man!Written 27 September 2024
- Y8709OIjohnf0 contributionsIreland up close with SetantaWe had an excellent 8 day tour of Ireland with Paul. Gallway Dingle, Killarney and Kilkenny and many, many points in between were all part of our travels. We experienced towns, countryside, castles, cathedrals, and the people of Ireland with Paul's knowledge and extremely friendly manner leading the way. Highly recommend his services.Written 26 September 2024
- JimK24340 contributionsFantastic Tour of Northern IrelandOur party of three took Paul Smith/Setanta Chauffeur Tours for a 6 day tour of Northern Ireland. I highly recommend Paul/Setanta Chauffeur Tours if you want an enjoyable tour of Ireland or Northern Ireland without the stress of managing your own transportation. Paul was personable, knowledgeable, and funny. His vehicle was very comfortable. He was attuned to our senior citizen status, selected stops with clean rest rooms, ATMs, and food and coffee/tea. Since we were photographers, Paul was very good at selecting or suggesting scenic spots. Each night, Paul was very good at suggesting restaurants and pubs for dinner. I give Paul Smith of Setanta Chauffeur Tours the highest of recommendations. You will be pleased if you book with him.Written 22 September 2024
- O6699LWconniec0 contributionsPerfect guide for our family’s Ireland experience!Paul was a first-rate guide and driver for our 6-member family trip to various destinations throughout Ireland. He offered valuable, humorous, and personal insights into Irish history, geography, politics, cuisine, and culture. I was quite impressed with the fact that he immediately knew our names and interests and personalized our experiences along the way. We could not have asked for a better tour experience and highly recommend Paul!Written 31 August 2024
- Jan P0 contributionsBest driver in IrelandPaul is the only person you should call to drive you around Ireland. Great communication prior to the trip. Excellent knowledge of the country, including roads, food choices, culture, history, and planning our trip around the weather forecast was all we could ask for. I can’t think of one complaint at all. Just contact Paul. You won’t be disappointed.Written 28 August 2024
- jackiegO519CM0 contributionsSetanta Chauffeured Tours is by far the Only way to visit IrelandWe toured Southern Ireland from Aug. 3 to Aug. 15, 2024. Paul our chauffeured driven guide was fantastic! Paul was so informative, funny, attentive and we couldn't have asked for a better tour of Southern Ireland with so many special sites and experiences any other way.Written 17 August 2024
- Tourist089022953720 contributionsFirst time trip to Ireland.We had the pleasure of having Paul as our personal driver and tour guide from June 27th until July 7th. We introduced to Paul by Luxury Ireland Tours. LIT worked with us to set up our itinerary and book our hotel and tour reservations along with some our dinner reservations. Paul did a terrific job in making further suggestions and helping us edit our original itinerary. Without question he provided us with friendly, professional 5 star service at all times and in my opinion went above and beyond in making our first visit to Ireland truly memorable. Thank you LIT and thank you Paul. When I return to Ireland next time for a golfing vacation I will be in contact with you to get my friends and I around. Thank you S. Stewart, Bend Oregon.Written 22 July 2024

- 464claudettej0 contributionsExcellent 3 Days with Paul/Setanta Chauffeur ToursMy husband & I toured for 3 days with Paul of Setanta Chauffeur Tours & we highly recommend touring with Paul! We called Paul/Setanta directly & from the initial time of our phone call, we felt like we had contacted a friend. Paul is very personable & is a fantastic, knowledgeable & professional guide who made our visit much more than just sightseeing. He customized our tours which included Giants Causeway & Belfast in Northern Ireland, the Cliffs of Moher in Ireland as well as Kilkenny Castle, Glendalough & Powerscourt Gardens & some special spots. Paul allowed time for us to take photos & took photos of us. Thank you, Paul, for the great memories!!Written 15 June 2024
