Customer Reviews
We went on a farmtour with a group of students and it couldn‘t have been better! The organisation was perfect, just as the time management. Our guide Colm went out of his way to make this trip a truely unforgettable experience for all of us!
Our FFA Chapter had an absolutely phenomenal experience with Farm Tours Ireland. Colm and Aonghus truly went the extra mile to make our tour authentic and memorable. The tour was perfectly paced for high school students - packing enough in to keep them from getting bored, but also ensuring that the activities, tours, and farms were high quality and educational. I was very impressed with their ability to explain how Irish culture, geography, social, and political factors impacted Irish agriculture and why things are done the way they are. It was an incredible learning experience for my students and they couldn't say enough good things about the tour and our tour guides. I would highly recommend Farm Tours Ireland for anyone looking for a life changing experience learning about agriculture.
Unforgettable 16-Day Study Tour with Farm Tours Ireland! We recently completed a 16-day study tour with Farm Tours Ireland, bringing 27 dairy farmers from Australia — and we couldn’t be more impressed! From start to finish, the experience was professional, personal, funny, and intriguing. We had Farm Tours booked majority of our trip, from the coach, hotels, dinners and farm visits, they hit the mark each and every time. The small family team at Farm Tours Ireland was incredibly fast and responsive, handling every detail with care and precision. They were adaptable and efficient, seamlessly adjusting plans to suit our group’s needs without ever compromising on quality. Colm met all of us at the airport with a smile on his face - which never faulted throughout our travels. He joined in with the banter of the group, with Colm and Aonghus joining in on Australian traditions whilst teaching us the Irish way simultaneously. The personal stories, Irish charm and genuine connections really made the tour valuable and special. Colm, Aonghus, Gerry and Phil brought a sense of family and friendship which is hardly seen in experiences like these! Our group came away not only more knowledgeable but inspired and entertained as well. If you're looking for a study tour that delivers on all fronts — information, organization, and personality — Farm Tours Ireland is second to none. On behalf of the young dairy farmers on Australia, we thank you for welcoming us into your world, and you have truly made being away from home and overseas less scary! Highly recommend
