4.6/5

The service provided by CIE was excellent. Prompt pickup and drop off. at the airport. Smooth transition with our bags at each hotel. Excellent and very knowledgeable tour guide/bus driver. Always felt safe. We chose the Irish Odyssey because of the itinerary. It was our first time in Ireland and wanted to see as much as possible. The hotels were first-rate. Shoutout to the best hotel - The Herbert Park Hotel in Dublin. The tour group was small, so we had plenty of room to spread out on the bus and get to know everyone. Our tour guides on the walking tours were excellent, especially Derry and the tour guide at the Kilmainham Gaol in Dublin. The breakfast buffets were good as well as a number of the dinners. And what can you say about Colm, our guide/bus driver extraordinaire? Great sense of humor and very knowledgeable. I would use CIE again.

Sit Back and Relax with CIE

We loved the ease of this vacation. Everything was planned and we could just go and enjoy. John our CIE driver was wonderful. Being picked up at the airport was great, comfortable hotel, good food and new friends! So many wonderful experiences. We packed a lot of fun into a week. Going at Christmas time was an added bonus. Ireland was even more charming.

Well done CIE Tours!

Great guides, great service and great excursions! The first time I was truly able to relax and enjoy a vacation as everything was taken care of so well. CIE tours was recommended to me by a friend and I would highly recommend CIE tours to anyone.

Fabulous Trip!

I enjoyed my tour immensely. Our guide John was very knowledgeable and entertaining. He catered to our every need. I would do this tour again in a minute.

Our ideal tour with the BEST tour guide

We are so happy that we chose the Irish Legends tour. We saw everything on our must-see list and more. But our tour guide Michael is what really made the whole trip, with his disarming personality and wonderful stories. My husband took many videos of "Michael stories" and we listen to them when we want to be transported back!

We had an incredible time! Romina our tour guide was so helpful and knowledgeable. This was our second CIE tour and we are booked for a England tour August 2024.

Everything was very well planned. Lots of variety in the activities. Good food and nice places to stay. Fiona was a wonderful and entertaining guide.

Our whole experience from start to finish was seamless and just as promised. Our tour guide was exceptional and we were very well looked after. We didn’t have to lift a finger! We loved all the sights we visited. It was a wonderful way to see a bit of Ireland in the time we had.

This tour was very educational and we experienced a lot of amazing areas.

Amazing staff, places we stayed and a great group to travel with. Highly recommended.

The UK tour surpassed our expectations in every way! From the moment we were met at Heathrow and to the very last days in London we were very pleased with the itinerary. Our tour guide, Peter Scott, and bus driver, Mark, were exceptional in making our first European experience excellent in every way. The other 25 people on the tour were all wonderful. We would certainly do another tour with CIE.

Professional, well organized

Great vacation

I had an amazing vacation. The sites were breathtaking and our tour guide/driver Mr. Murt O'Shea of Killarney was absolutely amazing! I'd definitely would visit my second home Ireland again and again and again :)

The trip met our expectations if only we could have gone to Orkey. This mig

With the storm Babet playing havoc with our tour, the tour guide (Ian) was outstanding on keeping us informed and providing other things for us to do. Also the bus driver Gordan) was outstanding in the bad weather.

A Great English tour

A great touring company. They. really put a lot into the tour. The guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. The tours very good. An excellent value.

My family of four truly enjoyed the Scotland/Ireland trip with just the right amount of time structured vs free time. It was both informative and stress free with comfortable accommodations and enjoyment. Paul our driver was entertaining and considerate of all the customers, even going out of his way to return to a hotel, where someone forgot their personal items. Please give Paul high marks for customer service.

A Wonderful Tour

I never imagined a bus tour could have been so wonderful. Every day, regardless of weather, was fun and exciting. My fellow tour members became very close.

Exploring the Scottish Highlands and Irish north shore

Scottish tour guide, Irish bus driver and guide were knowledgeable, professional and most importantly fun! They also anticipated the audience within the tour which made it a pleasurable experience. Hotel selection was top notch. Sites chosen for visiting picked up the highlights of both northern Scotland and the north shore of Ireland (and Northern Ireland). There was a schedule, but never felt rushed.

We were lucky enough to have a great travel group as well as awesome guides. The stops at points of interest were beautiful. It was fast paced, as described. We saw sooo much! Billy, our driver and Irish guide was phenomenal! So smart and personable. They helped us to see the importance of things as well as the beauty.

Best time in Ireland 🇮🇪

Both my husband Jose and I, had the most memorable trip. We were guided by Alester and driven by Brendan (they make a great team). The sites we were taken to have great history info and the pub stops we made were awesome. The hotels were pleasant, breakfasts were good as well as the dinners.
Both Jose and I are definitely planning on going back to Ireland.

The tour guide was excellent and so was our bus driver. They were both professional and know their stuff. They were also fun to hang out with . All the hotels were top notch.
