Minibus hire in Dublin, Ireland for smaller groups — always with a professional driver.

Minibus hire with driver in Dublin

A minibus with driver is the most flexible bus for small groups in Dublin. It typically seats about 8 to 19 passengers (approximate), fits into narrower streets than a full-size coach and can stop right at the hotel door.

Typical minibus trips in Dublin: private sightseeing at Trinity College, the Guinness Storehouse and Temple Bar; business roadshows between offices, hotels and venues; family celebrations; and day trips by minibus to Glendalough and the Wicklow Mountains, Newgrange and Kilkenny. A minibus is also a practical choice for airport runs from Dublin Airport (DUB) when a group has a lot of luggage.
