The entire trip was wonderful. I’m unable to single out just one city or experience because I enjoyed it all equally. I signed up for every optional experience and was not disappointed. I loved the ruins and the history from both our tour director and the specialists brought on in various areas.
Bask in the warm Celtic culture and majestic scenery of two remarkable lands. Come to know the regal city of Edinburgh on a panoramic tour by coach and by foot. Cruise the famed Loch Ness and explore the ruins of Urquhart Castle. Enjoy a traditional evening of Scottish food and entertainment. Visit the Titanic Experience Museum in Belfast and remember the century-old tragedy that shook the world, or visit the Ulster Museum, telling human stories through art and historical artifacts. Walk the Giant’s Causeway (UNESCO) and soak up incredible views of the Causeway Coast along the way. Visit Ireland’s bustling capital city of Dublin and tour historic St. Patrick’s Cathedral. From rugged natural beauty to vibrant and historic cities, the diverse charms of Scotland and Ireland await.
We had a wonderful time. We quickly realized how lucky we were when we saw the skillful organization and coordination that took place each day. Our trip included all the must see places and events. We would have struggled for a month to try and achieve seeing and doing everything, on our own.
The luck was with my trip. Blue skies and no rain. Great hikes and interesting history and cultural information passed on by our leader, Donal. I appreciated the small group of 8. I have made a few suggestions to Donal in reviewing the walks. It was fortuitous that our leader could adjust timings and events as needed. It was an exceptional trip to share with my son. We both loved Northern Ireland.
