Just returned from a 12 day Emerald Isle Tour and what a fantastic trip it was! Because it was a small group size everyone soon became one big happy family. The smaller bus was able to travel on roads less travelled, allowing us to explore more amazing scenic coastlines and points of interest. The lovely accomodations and meals were awesome, as was the fun, knowledgeable tour guide and driver.

Many cities and sights covered in the 10 days! Excellent and experienced tour guide. Well worth it. All hotels are high quality. The one suggestion would be to select optional activities carefully. Whatever you choose will be added on to an already packed day. If you are looking for time to explore on your own or to enjoy the quality hotels you are paying for, it may be wise to pass on some of the extra optional activities.
