My wife and I were blessed to have a wonderful tour guide who shared his expansive knowledge of Ireland. He shared personal stories, read poems and sang to our group all along our journey. We also had a terrific driver who was super experienced and professional. We felt extremely safe with him behind the wheel. All things considered, it was a near perfect trip.
The people were friendly, the country landscape is varied and beautiful. Our tour guide and bus drivers were awesome! Hotels were friendly and so inviting! Loved the towns and history!
