This was my first all land trip with Collette. I usually take river cruises. I was more than pleased with this trip. We were met at the airport and put in a limousine to go to our hotel. Our hotels were safe and excellent in every way. Our motor coach was spacious and very comfortable. The food was excellent. Our guide was nice, experienced, knowledgeable, accommodating, and full of great fun. She managed to bring a great cohesiveness to a bunch of total strangers and change the group members into great friends in one, fun-filled week. We saw interesting sights. We had time for shopping. And most importantly, we had time to meet Irish people. We watched a national rugby game, drank a beer, and sang many Beatles’ songs I thoroughly enjoyed the tours, dinner shows., and our castle stay. I will definitely return to the Republic of Ireland and many other Collette destinations for future travel.
We enjoyed our tour of Greece in spite of the rain and cold weather. We were lucky in some days when we visited beautiful places without the rain. There were lots of tiring walks which we survived. We loved our tour specially of Athens & Mt. Meteora. Our tour guide George was very kind, knowledgeable and caring and made our tour unforgettable. We would like to see Greece again but not in wet February.

I had never been on a tour planned by a company before so did not know what to expect. That is the only way I will travel from now on - pay my money, get on the plane and have enjoy!
I think the memory that I least expected, was enjoying and learning about cork. I had NO idea you could make so much with cork! I also liked that all the businesses we toured were family run operations. They have a passion for what they do, they know their product from start to finish and could answer any question thrown at them.
