4.6/5

Great trip, nice people.

The best part of the trip was the tour guide and driver. Nice to have 2 people and not just the driver/guide. Great idea moving the seats each day, stops bickering! Good itinerary at interesting places, covered just about all the salient points of the island of Ireland. Nice hotel choices, good rooms and well placed. Thanks for a job well done.

Booking was easy. Everything including arranging flights. Our guide was the best. We saw and did so much; I can’t wait to go again.

Scotland happiness

Easy to book, lots of information provided, though we were close to leaving when info arrived. We were told there were mailing issues, and were reassured all was set. It was and we had no issue in travel going froward.

Our CIE Ireland tour was fabulous, easy and so memorable!! Our guide/driver Dennis was the absolute best; very knowledgeable, funny, friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the stops throughout the country and all the people we encountered were very friendly. I would definitely recommend this company and tour to anyone looking to visit Ireland!

It was easy and agents were helpful.

Amazing best vacation ever

Best vacation ever. Itinerary was perfect. Patrick our guide was incredible. He was funny informative Made the trip CIE was great they provide everything you need Can’t wait to get back and do it again

Repeat vacationer with CIE.

Professional staff and prompt response to inquires. Worry free vacation thanks to competent service.

Outstanding very helpful booking my tour and airfare.

Good but could be improved

Hotels and food were good. Itinerary covered all places we wanted to see. Disappointed that we were told that we could not use coach toilet and spent a lot of time queuing for public toilet instead of sightseeing.

Great holiday

Great communication, prompt responses and great to deal with

Will travel again with CIE Tours!

Everyone I’ve spoken with at CIE Tours was very courteous and professional. I rated the booking service a 4 because the wait time to speak to someone is extremely long. However, once I got someone on the phone, the booking process went smoothly, and if I had questions, all questions were answered clearly and sufficiently.

Solo traveler

The booking was easy but I wish they would warn people of the level of activity each trip has. My group was older and some of them had trouble and couldn't do some of the activities.

Our driver was The best super knowledgeable and wntertaining definately set the standards for my other tours which didn't even match up to his.

This holiday tour of Scotland was the second time I traveled with CIE. The best by far! I wouldn’t contemplate booking with any other company. Our brilliant tour guide Graham was so friendly and knowledgeable.

Tour was great but preparation was a bit lacking.

It was a great tour. But, I was a bit nervous several times after we booked and before we left because there was absolutely no communication from them for months. I'd suggest that CIE follows the Viking Cruises model and set up some sort of automatic, "It's only 3 months until you go!" kind of email that is sent every month of so. That was literally my only concern in the whole process.

What a wonderful trip!

I enjoyed every minute of this trip. The accommodations were great, the bus was new, clean and comfortable and our guide was superior. I would absolutely recommend both this trip and this tour group. And I'm a tough cookie to please!

Yes I would recommend them to friends and famiy.

Very satisfied

Professional service from start to finish of the tour, our guide Elvis was excellent & very knowledgeable.

The time spent at the different locations was just right and the local guides were very good.

We had Mick as our driver and Liam as our tour guide and they made the whole trip even better than we had expected. We all felt like we were their favorite group, and we all got along so well. There was so much fun every day and lots of interesting information. We didn't want to miss a minute of it. We were always on time everywhere and missed the crowds, plus we all had fun writing silly Limericks and Liam was always game to read them. Mick and Liam always greeted us and helped us in and out of the bus safely. Thank you for such a wonderful trip

I would absolutely use CIE tours again. I loved that everything was paid for ahead of time. No hidden surprises. The hotels we stayed at were nice, I really liked the itinerary. It was our first time to Ireland and felt we got to see a lot during our stay. Everything was planned out ahead of time, very punctual. The best part of our whole trip was out tour driver Oisin Quinn. He was great!! He was full of knowledge and really gave us interesting information. He made the whole trip. Would love to go again.
