Reviews of our Ireland Small Group Tours
Our Small group travelers leave positive, first-hand reviews of Ireland tours.
Andra M | Traveled in July
We loved this trip and would travel with Phil again. Even though it was a "beta" trip, we did not feel like we were test cases. Phil made sure of that.
John M | Traveled in July
On the Hole, it was an excellent trip. The CEO was superb, the bus driver was excellent and fun to be around, and the people on the tour were friendly.. The weather even turned out to be excellent. The choice of places to go, though somewhat fluid because we were the first people to do this excursion, we're very good. The CEO made some excellent substitutions. The Bunratty Casle excursion could be truncated significantly to know more than an hour and a half or skipped entirely. Inisheer Island/Cliffs of Moher, with its bike riding and hikes was excellent. Of local guides added at the different venues really improve the overall experience.
Beatrice B | Traveled in June
Eunice made the tour fun, lively and personal. Recommend to all that they ask for her as tour leader. She was professional, got to know each person personally and brought an overall group camaraderie enhancing the tour experience
Denny R | Traveled in June
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.
Sandra F | Traveled in June
Our experiences on the Iconic Ireland Tour have given us a real appreciation for and connection to the history, culture and rugged, natural beauty of this wonderful country. Thank you to G Adventures for helping us explore and create memories that will last a lifetime.
Caitlin S | Traveled in May
I had a great trip with G Adventures and can genuinely say I met people to call family through the group. Phil was a fantastic group leader and I always felt comfortable and safe in his company.
