Prompt reliable service with polite drivers and nice staff to meet you to take the tickets etc.

Excellent service,
Pick up time on both Pick up and Drop off were bang on time......Excellent service

Good firm , i live in manchester and use marathon coaches to travel to fairyhouse for the winter festival when i come to dublin, well priced for a return ticket ibcan recommend them

No buses available for at least 40 mins after concert — no updates as to why , no customer service .. would have been quicker to walk back to Dundrum.

Pick up and drop off points were clear. Made going to and from the gig very stress free. Staff were very friendly.

I was at the gig at the phoenix park for and all the staff were really nice and I'm so glad that I took a shuttle bus so I didn't have to walk the whole way a €5 shuttle bus was definitely worth it.

Thanks marathon all the best 👏👏

When going to iron maiden the bus got delayed leaving as we had to wait for a member of staff to check our tickets once she arrived we got told we had to divert by celbridge to drop them off further delaying things which wasn't ideal as between this and traffic ended missing the entire first act.
While I could get over this having to sit on a bus with no air conditioning or even cold blowers only a small desk like fan (there was a second but pointed at window screen?)on a hot day for almost two hour really wasn't Upto par making the trip overall very uncomfortable

First time using this bus service and I will most definitely be using it again. The service going to the concert and returning was amazing! The system in place for leaving the concert was outstanding, I’ve never seen anything like it. Fair play to the people behind it. I will be recommending this service to all.

Bus driver was really friendly and dropped us close to home after the concert. Best bus driver ever!

First time we have used a coach service to get to a concert and really glad we did. It was really well organized, we boarded on time at 4.30 and arrived at Marley park right beside the entrance. Bus left concert promptly too, and there were loads of staff to make sure you were getting on the correct coach. Great service!

Such a good service to and from Marlay Park on Saturday. Easy booking, coach was clean and left on time. Plenty of coaches for returning and dropped back to city centre after. Can’t fault it at all and fully recommend!

I had a mad dash with my niece to catch the coach to malahide Castle, ran that bad I was red faced, puffed out and needed the loo, the women with the wrist bands directed me to the nearest toilet, then when I got back to the check in area they gave me one of their own stash of bottled water to keep themselves hydrated, because I was so out if breath which was so kind of them.
The driver was equally nice, welcomed us all on board and when he had to make a detour because of a traffic accident kept us all in the loop why we were detouring and got us there safely.
The 1st coach back, which I was on was supposed to leave at 10.30pm, but it didn't leave until around 11.10pm, this was no fault of marathon and all down to the malihide Castle marshals letting everyone attending the concert walking to the dart wander all over the place effectively blocking all coaches not just marathons into the coach bays. Even with the late departure (again) no fault of marathons, the driver got us into Dublin City centre in time to catch the 12.15am luas back to our hotel.
If ever going to a concert again and need a coach definitely I would use this company, not only were all the employees so nice and helpful but they did the best they could especially the driver on the way back. Thank guys .

If you’re going to Malahide castle for a gig don’t bother, take the dart or even if you walk from there to Dublin City centre it will be quicker. The slow boat to China was faster than this. We were the first to leave the gig and get on the bus, our bus was one of the last to leave the site. We left the gig at 10:30, it’s now after midnight and we are still closer to the Malahide than we are to the city centre, it’s a scam, take the dart, way more efficient and cheaper. 💾 you time and money.

I had to come and give a review about our experience last Saturday getting Marathon Coach hire from Dunleer in Louth to St Anne's park Dublin for a concert.
From start to finish the service was excellent. The ladies checking us in and the driver, the lads above when the concert was over , all a credit to this company. Straight forward booking, a reminder email, the bus was on time, getting home was so efficient. A fantastic sing song on the way home too. I'm delighted this company has started this service via Dunleer. No hassle. No need for "a lift to the bus" well done Marathon. A very happy customer from Dunleer

Easy to book, relaxed journey to and from Punchestown, depart and return on time. Excellent service

We had a trip to the Cliffs & Galway and our drivers Paul & Ken were great, would highly recommend Marathon for group trips!

Easy to book, very helpful staff. Not travelled yet as concert is June but pick up and drop off looks ideal.

Ease of booking and clear instructions re pick up etc
