Editoral Review of Shamrocker Adventures

Founded in 1999, Shamrocker strives to provide variety and fun on their Ireland tours.

What Makes Shamrocker Stand Out?

As their name suggests, Shamrocker specializes in Ireland tours. They offer a wide array of experiences and a wide range of budgets as well, making them the perfect stop for first time travelers to Ireland.

Most of their tours are between 3-7 days, which is a great amount of time for travelers considering a wider UK visit after Ireland. Most of their tours are large groups, but you also have the option to book a private tour and/or a special interest tour that has a more specific focus such as history or food.

Who Will Enjoy Traveling with Shamrocker?

For young independent budget travelers seeking a fun experience in Ireland, this is a great place to start. Food is usually not included so it’s up to you to arrange this yourself - but they attract the kind of traveler who will be interested in having this kind of free reign.

Tours combine a mix of nightlife, active outdoor days, history and culture - great for travelers who enjoy all three, but weighted more toward the first two.

They are on the young side with their tours - typically and 18-30 crowd will enjoy traveling with them. Tours often include drinking excursions, and there is a definite “party” feel that some may enjoy more than others. Groups are small to large, and the emphasis is on having a good time and getting to know your travel companions while exploring Ireland.

Top Destinations

They operate throughout Ireland and Northern Ireland, visiting top sites, hidden gems, and many pubs!

Shamrocker Travel Style

The Shamrockers travel style is all about revealing the fun adventurous side of Ireland. Tours are between 3-9 days typically. Accommodations are in multi bed hostel rooms, with the option to upgrade to private twin rooms if you are traveling with a friend or significant other.

The main mode of transportation is by bus. While some days will involve a lot of driving, the time off bus is full, lively, and frequent. You might also travel by ferry during your trip - which is included in the price. Most entrance fees for tours etc are included in the price, however a few may be left optional in which case you will pay your own fee at the time.

Why Choose a Tour With Shamrocker?

If you are a young, outgoing and adventurous traveler who is not opposed to the backpacker travel style, and looking for a fun way to explore Ireland then this could definitely be the tour company for you.

Shamrocker tours are ideal for independent minded travelers - all meals and drinks are up to you and some excursions are optional. If you enjoy exploring on your own a lot then this will be a good fit. They have regular departures as well, so this can be a great choice for spur of the moment decisions!

About the company

Since 1999, it’s been our mission to give independent budget travellers the chance to really discover Ireland and remember it as one of the best times of their life! We'll make sure you get a tremendous insight into our country, meet real local characters and discover what it means to be Irish. We consider it our duty to make everyone’s’ experience of Ireland the most welcoming they get on their travels and our ‘Book and Go Guarantee’ means we never cancel a trip.

Our 3-7 day trips have it all.  Follow in the footsteps of giants at The Giant’s Causeway, get the ‘gift of the gab’ kissing the Blarney Stone, view the mighty Cliffs of Moher and discover why Guinness really does taste better in Ireland. Our Irish adventures are shamelessly good fun or as we say over here, ‘great craic’.

Our Mates

Shamrocker Adventures, HAGGiS Adventures and Busabout came together in 2006 with the intention of offering a choice of travel style that covered Europe, Asia and North Africa. We are a group of companies that share the same values, ideals and an attitude that is unique. (We've even created a couple of discounts like our 'Mate's Rates' to thank you for travelling with us).

Our collective is totally committed to delivering quality for the budget conscious traveller and offering experiences of a lifetime.

See you on the road!

It’s easy to see why so many people love Ireland and claim to be Irish.

If you have yet to discover this beautiful part of the world, then get ready to be seduced by our stunning scenery, incredible history but most of all, us Irish! Don’t listen to anyone else, we are by far the friendliest people on the planet and that’s the truth! We consider it our duty to make everyone’s’ experience of Ireland the most welcoming they get on their travels. Our Irish adventures are shamelessly good fun or as we say over here, ‘great craic’. We also like to get out there and do stuff. But at the end of an active day stretching our legs through Ireland’s countryside and its forty shades of green, there are good times to be had at a place central to much of our culture – the pub! We want our passengers to meet genuine Irish locals and experience this vibrant culture first-hand.
