4.6/5

From booking the trip to the pick up at the airport, to our hotels, and the itinerary, we were thoroughly impressed. Our tour guides were all wonderful. We spent the most time with Di Keddie as a guide and we enjoyed her knowledge and humor. Michael Coleman was our driver, but as you know the driver does so much more than just drive. The roads in Scotland and Ireland are twisty and small, yet we felt safe. Michael was knowledgeable and professional, with a warmth and a lovely sense of humor that made us feel very welcome. I have already told many people about what an amazing time we had. Thank you to everyone involved!

Superb all around,but it was our driver/guide Joe who really made the trip

My third escorted tour with CIE. I feel the convenience and value are very good.

Great tour. Hotels, food, coach and tour guide were fantastic. We were able to see so much more on our guided group tour than we ever would have on our own. We will definitely boom another trip with CIE in the future!

The Service from CIE Tours was excellent. They made sure we were very imformed daily as to what we would be doing and excatlly when we would be doing it. There was enough free time that we could set out on adventures of our own. Our Bus Driver/Tour Director (Eamann) was the best driver/director we have ever had.

Terrific time

Super easy, great hotels, good food

Great trip with lots os English and Scottish history, beautiful countryside

Booking was easy.

CIE was terrific in setting up delivering and following up on all portions of our trip to Ireland and Scotland.

My only disappointment was not spending more time in St. Andrews.
It needs to be at least 4 hours to enjoy both the city and golf.

Quality touring.

Booking was made easy and extra room required arranged quickly without fuss.We joined another couple from Australia - all efficiently arranged. Pat, the tour guide and Frank the driver were really professional and made the tour easy with lots of information. Hotels rooms of good quality - The service and breakfast at Atholl Palace Hotel were not up to standard. One morning the Coffee and tea were appalling. Certainly not 4 star! Otherwise an excellent tour. Will certainly recommend you.

From booking, to preparation through the trip itself, CIE was top-notch. Your people made all the difference.

Overall a good trip with just a few glitches.

The booking service was very good and helpful and the agent always got back to me when I had questions or concerns.

Great trip on every level!

Excellent service and clarity. I travel a lot and this is rare.

Efficient service

Wonderful accommodations.. great tour directors and drivers .

Definitely would recommend

Friendly, efficient

Booking was easy and I was able to contact the agent I had most of the time.

Knowledgeable and helpful. Called back with updates.

The tour was good since it included most meals and there were no hidden fees or adders.

Great sites, variety of activities and site seeing. Knowledgeable tour director providing insight into Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland’s history and culture.

CIE Does It Again!

Everything was wonderful! We had a pleasant gentleman pick us up from the airport (and he was so sweet even though we were two hours late), the hotels were top-rate, the food was delicious, and our guide (who is so knowledgeable and helpful) and driver were amazing. They even got us a tour of Edinburgh Castle before it opened. It's the little touches that CIE offers that makes me keep coming back.

I loved our agent Mary Larkin. Very knowledgeable.
