4.6/5

Our tour guide/bus driver was excellent and made our trip one that I will always remember. Murt gave us information about Irish history and also about present day events and every day life in Ireland. All the tips of where to go and suggestions of what to eat were right on target.When I talk about the trip it all comes back to how Murt made our trip the best it could be.

The trip was amazing. Murt O’Shea was fantastic.
We couldn’t have asked for anything better will definitely be using CIE again.

Staff and drivers were great.

The staff were well versed and told many Irish stories. Made the rides go fast. They were very caring about the visitors who were using their services.

A fantastic taste of Ireland

The tour really did give us a fantastic taste of Ireland! It was well-organized and took us to the best spots for photos, shopping, and places to eat. The tour bus was clean and comfortable. All the hotels were nice and gave good breakfast. Our tour guide was kind and knowledgeable. I enjoyed everything we did only wish we had time to do more but that is for another trip. I highly recommend this tour for any first time Ireland visitors like myself!

CIE did everything right! What a wonderful overview of Scotland and Ireland

This tour was ON POINT in so many ways! We covered so much and went to so many wonderful sites. Our hotels were outstanding and the food was top notch. Checking into hotels was a breeze and luggage was delivered and picked up directly from your room. Our tour guides and drivers were very well educated about the area, courteous and funny. An experience I'll NEVER forget on this major check off on my bucket list.

P.J. O'Brian our Tour guide and driver was excellent....the man work hard.

this was our first tour so I have nothing to compare with, but kit and information booklet was first rare and told us all we needed to know

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

Everything provided was what I expected

Very easy to book.

Excellent!!!

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
