Day tours from Dublin for families Safety First Always

Legal Requirements
Regarding children and seat-belts in motor vehicles and all of our Wicklow Day Tour Buses from Dublin

Passengers traveling with children must provide child seat, or booster seats, in order to travel on our vehicles.
Under no circumstances will it be possible to allow infants/children to sit on parents lap.
We do not provide child seats, as every child is unique, and as such a child seat for all simply would not suffice.

You can hire a child seat from a third party
