Customer Reviews
What a lovely tour of Ireland. It would be great to extend the trip beyond a week as it felt very rushed especially if we were joining the add on options, we didn't have time to explore the city that day.
I really enjoyed the trip. The trip manager, coach driver and the people I met were all amazing. The highlight was the sheepdog experience for me. Some of the hotels were budget ones and therefore the breakfast was not sufficient. As someone doing Contiki for the first time I would recommend a one-week trip to get a feel of what the whole thing is.
I had a great time in Ireland and would suggest it for anyone thinking about going to Ireland. The activities were amazing and worth the money. The accommodations were okay: there were a few places we stayed that were not ideal (bunk bed situation with no bathroom privacy, not ready for check in, etc). The food included in the prices were tasty and good portions. The custom T shirt from Gooses T-shirts was a nice souvenir, but I would not call it an 'experience': we ordered what we wanted and it was made to order for us.
Takin on Ireland, one pint at a time! Lovely trip, lovely views, lovely day for a Guinness! The weather held up really well, the food was amazing every time, and the locals were super friendly! Hotel location was perfect for the pub-life every night. Not sure I’ll jump into a modular trip again tho. Traveling can be very tiring for some people.
I had the most amazing time. The trip was full of cool places and events. The trip manager and driver really made it even more special!
