Weekend & Extended Tours

O’Hara Coaches are also able to provide group travel for weekend and extended tours around the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. These trips are longer than the maximum allowed driving time for a single day and may involve either an overnight stay, or a drop-off and pick-up service at a later date.

Our 16 seater mini-buses are best suited for passengers with overnight bags only. Our 33/36 seater buses have a luggage capacity to accommodate approximately 20 hard luggage suitcases, but our 53/55 seater coaches have a larger, spacious luggage compartment and is more suited to longer tours around Ireland.

When planning your journey for extended national tours with overnight stays, O’Hara Coaches will also consider rest stops, total driving time per day, driver accommodation and adjust these to meet your needs. Please do not hesitate to contact us to discuss your requirements and a free, no obligation quote.

Extended tour bus charters might include:-

  • Religious Pilgrimages
  • Sightseeing tours
  • Historical tours
  • Ancestry & Genealogy tours
