Great experience! Hike and top-class BBQ, all well organized and well executed. It is rough doing anything for a group of 30, but these boys got it!
Trip to Glendalough was made a smooth and personable experience thanks to Paynes. The bus was very comfortable and Stephen is friendly and accommodating. Would highly recommend.
Had a great experience with these guys! Had a group of 20 or so from Dublin on a day excursion. Brought onto an island as well. Couldn't recommend them more!

Unprompted review
Reply from Paynes
Since this review has been posted, we have tried to contact this reviewer to find out if they were a customer or passenger of ours, what vehicle they may have travelled on or if they had been a customer of ours atall. As of 15th June 2026 we still have not had any reply from blud6507@gmail.com, and google have classed that account as a spam account set up specifically to leave this review.
All CVRT data from our vehicles is widely available on www.cvrt.ie, and given that we only have two coaches in our fleet, We see no other reason for this 1 star review than to spread vicious rumours in the hope of discrediting us as a small business.
Perhaps the fact that it was posted anonymously might show the sort of person who wrote this reivew is. The IP address used certainly makes us believe this person never used our services before.
