The itinerary and optional experiences were very good. Our bus driver and guide(Amy) were absolutely fantastic.
Its a great trip which covers so much of the countries but there were too many optional extras which amounted to a lot of extra costs.
The trip was great! Landscaping was beautiful and especially the rainbows that you saw. The hotels and employees were very nice! Joel, our tour guide was awesome and so was our chauffeur, Tom . Joel was so informative about Ireland and Scotland. I just wish I could remember everything he talked about.! The history is interesting I think they went beyond and above for us on the trip. The weather was tricky ! But overall, it was a a nice trip! The downside was I wish I got to spend more time at all the towns that we stopped at. The quaint little towns were interesting. I understand that we were on a timeline. The other thing is, people should be considerate when they are sick and wear a mask on the bus.. By the end of the trip I was sick Thank you
The trip was outstanding; the scenery, the adventures, meeting locals, the history, the addition of local guides, and the crew. Our travel director, Damian, and our driver Jason made the trip all that more memorable.
Every place we visited was great. Loved visiting both countries.,
Great trip. Adam and Brooke were amazing. Would highly recommend this tour. Local guides were knowledgeable and personable. Ronan, especially, made his tour memorable with his knowledge and perspective on Ireland. Itinerary was well thought out and Brooke’s knowledge of the countries and histories added greatly to the experience.
I had an amazing trip. It was run like a well oil machine. Your bus driver was completely amazing. How he drive in some of those tight spots was simply amazing and I operate heavy equipment and have drive bus. Simply the best driver I have seen. was an amazing guide. He explained things and answered any questions or concerns we had. The itinerary was very tight and would have liked more time in certain places but understand the tight schedule as well.
The optional excursion to Stirling Castle did not include actually going into/seeing much of the castle. The tour director, Damien, was excellent. Although the group was fantastic, 48 was a large number to accommodate on the tour.
Sit back, relax and enjoy the sites, sounds and tastes of Ireland and Scotland while your driver and tour guide keep you safe and sound. See places you've heard about all your life, like Blarney Castle, the Giant's Causeway, and Loch Ness, although I was disappointed that Nessie wasn't available for a photo shot. And don't forget all the amazing people you'll meet along the way.
Our tour director was , he was magnificent. He was absolutely amazing in knowing the history of the areas we visited, dates and details of notable occurrences. Very pleasant and professional. Our bus driver was , never underestimate the importance of the bus driver. was an excellent driver, had a great personality, and kept our bus immaculately clean inside and out. Nothing worse than traveling in beautiful scenery with dirty windows kept our windows spotless, and never let trash accumulate in the bus. These two made our trip the most enjoyable we've ever had.
This was our 20th trip with Trafalgar and while we have enjoyed every one, this one was special. The scenery was magnificent, the people were lovely, our TD and our driver were exceptional. Every place we visited exceeded our expectations. Now on to number 21!
We had the absolute best tour guide () Hated to see the tour end our driver was amazing ,how he negotiated that bus on those roads was incredible The accommodations were fantastic and not having to haul our suitcases everywhere was epic We did most of the additional tours they were fun educational and informative I would definitely choose Trafalgar Tours again and will tell all my friends and relatives if they are thinking of travelling to definitely go Trafalgar Thank for a wonderful expierence
The tour guide Damian Watson was excellent an Driver Jason awesome. The food all the same fifteen days eating pretty much same food that should be changed up some.
We had a great tour director and bus driver! Both were full of knowledge and tips and so organized! Really appreciated that quality. Nice touch with “local” treats!! The locals are so welcoming and friendly. Loved the “Be my Guest” experiences. Enjoyed the titanic venture, Belfast , isle of skye, the giant causeway and option to walk the trails, being so close to nature! Accommodations and meals were good! Would definitely travel Trafalger again.
Very well thought out itinerary and a great mix of beautiful landscape, history and culture.
I really can't say much more than it was fantastic from beginning to end
