4.6/5

Everything was very easy to book and clearly explained.

All arrangements were ready as promised. Our guide and driver were first class, skilled and professional. The locations visited were all educational and fascinating.

Everyone in my family loved the tour and the people

Great value for your buck. Everything was first class from hotels to food. The tour guide and bus driver were funny knowledgeable and professional. Would highly recommend.

Northern Lights CIE Tour Excellent with Maria

I have recommended the Northern Lights tour to Iceland to my friends. Maria was an exceptional tour guide. She was extremely knowledgable and made the bus ride to to all the sights enjoyable. Maria went outside with us at the hotels to see the Northern Lights. Most of the hotels had a wonderful buffet breakfast. The tour was well organized allowing us to enjoy each sight without being rushed.
It was great knowing how much to tip your guide and bus driver, being able to tip in USA dollars, and to make purchases with your credit card. I would recommend that you make the bottle holders in the backpack higher; as metal bottle fell out and when you had it in the backpack the lining ripped.

Every detail was amazing! Could not have been better!

All details of our trip were communicated well and clearly. All stops were enjoyable, people were so friendly everywhere we went. Travel, hotels, attractions were educational and fun. Our bus driver, Colm Willis is exceptional. Thank you. I would book with CIE again.

An Amazing Trip of a Lifetime

The booking staff was professional, patient, and informative.
The driver, Sam, and ALL the tour guides, especially the tour guide in Scotland and Galway, were awesome.
I would enthusiastically recommend this tour.

A very fast-paced tour. Would have been better if a little more free time.

The bus tour was very nice but we would have liked a little more free time in Rome. The Florence hotel was not a pleasant experience, staff not very accommodating. Also, the adapter CIE gave us did not work and blew out mine and others hair appliances. Need to supply an adapter for Europe with large AND small prong openings.
Overall, the scenery and architecture was so amazing!

Everything was what I expected

Excellent trip.

Great website for booking.

Booking was clear and easy online! Required documents and payments were easy to understand and download.

AMAZING TRIP, LOVED EVERYTHING!

Great Trip!

Tour was great - lined up to published agenda nicely, allowed some flexibility, and was a nice balance of planned and free time. The Tour Director was amazing, great accommodations, went out of their way to make sure everyone was taken care of.

No detail left unattended

Have already recommended to a friend because of attention to detail, commitment by tour leader to needs of guests, and great experience

Tour was great, food not so much

Tour was great, would like to have spent more time in some of places

The best trip we've had in years

very fast, very easy

very helpful with answering questions and discussing trip options

Easy and through information, we would recommend them to our family and friends

The your guide and driver in Scotland were terrific, very informative and pleasant to be around. I would take another tour with that duo.

Excellent trip! Please change the last hotel..

I would definitely recommend CIE Tours to friends and family. We had a such a wonderful time in Ireland! Our guide/driver was excellent and very informative. Our favorite experience by far, was the Merry Ploughboy Pub. The only disappointment of our entire trip was the last hotel we stayed in. I would strongly recommend that you choose a different hotel in Dublin. After staying in such lovely hotels, the Academy Plaza Hotel was a big let down on our last day/night there. The rooms were old, not modern at all. They were also tiny with very narrow beds. I would also suggest that clients with an afternoon flight home find there own taxi service to the airport rather than booking a transfer through CIE. We were grouped with others who had earlier flights and had to get up and out of the hotel by 6 am (missing the breakfast that was supposed to be included and we paid for - at minimum, we should have received a bagged, to go breakfast if the meal was listed as included) and spend 5-6 hours in the airport prior to our flight.
