A.& J. Brophy Tours.


Based in Wicklow we have an intimate knowledge of the area and run tours both in Wicklow and Kildare.
Here are some sample tours

Glendalough.
Glendalough has long been an area renowned for its natural beauty and history and it is one of the most visited places in Ireland. The Glendalough Valley is located in the Wicklow Mountains National Park and has many attractions for visitors, from its world famous Monastic Site with Round Tower to its scenic lakes and valleys, as well as a selection of walks and trails in the area including The Wicklow Way and St. Kevins Way.


Russborough and the Blessington Lakes.
Visit Russborough demesne (estate) established 1741 to explore the grounds and walks, explore the rich heritage and the fine rooms, learn about the Sir Alfred Beit Art Collection, relax and enjoy the history of Russborough over a cup of tea or coffee. You can start the tour with a leisurely walk around the grounds in front of the house and view the magnificent mansion from the far side of the lake. Try the substantial Beech Hedge Maze and tour the house.

Walk the Wicklow Way or St. Kevins Way
The Wicklow Way begins in Dublin's southern suburb of Rathfarnham and travels in a south-south-westerly direction across the Dublin and Wicklow uplands, then through the rolling hill country of southwest County Wicklow to finish in the small, County Carlow village of Clonegal 127 kilometres later. The walk is split into different sections and you can choose the section you wish to complete.
St Kevins Way also in Wicklow runs from Hollywood or Valleymount to Glendalough. The service we offer is to collect a walking group from the Airport, Seaport, Business location or Hotel and transport to the starting stage then collect from the finish point and return. If you intend doing multiple stages we will do baggage forward to your rest points.
