Nice overview of the Republic of Ireland. Covers a lot of ground in a short time.
Anonymous | Traveled in July
Great experience with friends and seeing all the sights of Ireland. The guide, James, was awesome and very knowledgeable. We were able to get to key sights before the crowds and enjoy the experience without the heavy crowds. The food was bit disappointing. We suggest that more of the group meals occur at a local restaurant rather than being held at the hotels. The final meal at the restaurant was fantastic and would've liked more of this experience throughout the trip.

The local knowledge as well as history of Ireland made our travel director a huge asset, combined with the excellent driving skills of our driver made our trip worth while.

This was a fast-paced tour that packed a lot in. Our Travel Director and Driver made everything flow smoothly. From Dublin, to Galway, up to Donegal and Belfast, through Glasgow, the Highlands, and, finally Edinburgh, we saw wonderful places and met some amazing people in our local guides, and even a professional storyteller. We are completely satisfied with this trip and have wonderful memories for the rest of our lives.

It is a great itinerary… IF you purchase all of the optional excursions. We covered a lot of miles with the basic itinerary, however, had we not opted in on the excursions, we never would have truly experienced Scotland or Ireland. Our guide was amazing… full of knowledge that one could tell he enjoyed sharing.
