We are a national school here in Monaghan, we have used Fitzpatrick coaches for the past 5 years to take the children swimming, football, outdoor activities and all our school tours. We are incredibly happy with their service, always punctual and never rushing us back to the school. Drivers are so friendly and work very well with the children. We will continue to use them.

Our family trip to Ireland was magical, we were there for 11 days. From speaking to Mary from Fitzpatrick coaches who organised our itinerary for us. Our days were filled with different activities which took in Belfast, Donegal, Sligo, Galway and Dublin. Accommodations was perfect for us and Pamela told us the best restaurants and pubs to go to. Recommend very highly!!!!

Just back from a Wild Atlantic tour in Ireland. We were part of a group and the tour company was Fitzpatrick Coaches. Our guide and driver were top class, so helpful and professional from start to finish. The communication and organization from Gillian before the trip began was excellent. The selection of accommodations and restaurants were just the right blend of authentic and modern.

Top of the line coaches, USB charges, Air-conditioning, Comfy seats, great drivers. All you need in a coach company.

We booked Fitzpatrick Coaches to transport our guests from Castle Leslie to the church for our wedding. From first talking to Gillian we were very impressed at how much help we got. Everything was organised, our guests had nothing but praise for the company.
