The tour was extensive, but was well organized. The places selected were interesting for the most part. I liked the Powerescourt gardens, Kinsdale, the horse and carriage tour and the Cliffs of Moher. I enjoyed the way in which the driver maneuvered the coach through the beautiful roadways of the Republic of Ireland, in particular.
This trip was interesting and well organised with a variety of stops and areas of interest. We listened to stories by Kevin, which were told in an engaging and compassionate way. Wayne, our driver was also very caring and always helped us off the bus! Both Kevin and Wayne were professional and experienced professionals. I just loved seeing the United Kingdom, especially Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
