It was excellent in every way. was the best tour guide. was very nice.
The visit to the farm was so memorable. The bog, learning about animals and it’s fair to say, I will never have a two week old lamb cuddling next to my face!
in Derry was outstanding. His explanation of events and daily life was superb.
The Irish Experience was a wonderful trip around Ireland and into Northern Ireland. The tour director and bus driver were excellent pointing out the wonderful sights and Irish folklore and getting to our destinations on time and ahead of the crowds at Blarney Castle and the Ring of Kerry.

Very good tour. The places visited were very interesting and the scenery was magnificent. The hotels were good and the group of people we travelled with were lovely. would have to be the best tour guide we have ever had. Her passion for her job is infectious. Our driver was also amazing.

This trip provided a comprehensive overview of Ireland that whets one's appetite to know and see more about this beautiful country and its people. The highlights are just that as it is a complicated history and the natural beauty is apparent wherever one travels. The level of activity requires a good deal of walking and the pace is spirited. It meets the high standard of both G Adventures and National Geographic.

This was a fun trip, but it was very fast-paced. It gave a great overview of all that the UK and Ireland have to offer, but there wasn’t enough time to see very much of it in depth. It’s perfect for helping you pick out the places you want to see again in more detail. It involves a fair amount of riding around on the coach, but the route is consistently planned with carefully spaced “comfort” breaks. Some of the stops in small towns were given too much time, when there wasn’t much to do or see, and some of the stops could have been longer, when there was a lot to see or do. Our Tour Director was excellent, and so was our driver. Most of the hotels were very nice, with a few that were just OK. The included group dinners weren’t very exciting, but they were reasonable and tasty.

As a parent, I look at traveling right now through the lens of my child. What will she enjoy? As if she is having fun, most likely, I will too. This adveture, had the right mix of scheuduled activities, downtime, movement, and experiences. My 12 year old loved the time that she spent on the tour and fell in love with Ireland. She enjoyed playing Gaelic Games, hurling, and learning Irish social dancing. She is still talking about the jail at Spike Island and the history of the Island. She loved hearing about the fairies and other Irish lore. The tour guides didn't just recite the facts to her, they told the stories that make up Ireland and brought it to life for her. She left the trip with memories for a lifetime and came home excited to share her adventures with her family. Less than 24 hours after the trip, she is excited to tell her dad that G Adventures goes Antarctica and and that we should start planning.
Enjoyed this trip and all the optional choices. Weather couldn't have been better. Food was good. Free time and tour experiences were nicely balanced.
Tour Guide and Bus Driver was great. I was traveling solo and felt safe.
The one thing that could have gone better, was accommodations. The Leonardo Hotel in Cardiff and Liverpool was not a good experience. The room was not clean, carpet, window treatments and furniture was old and in bad repair.

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.
