4.6/5

The tour was just what we wanted-an overall view of the island and people. I would definitely use CIE Tours again and want to make sure that you know how much we appreciated our bus driver/tour guide- Murt was excellent in giving us a feel for the history of Ireland and his own background. We loved it!!

TJ was an amazing guide and resource!

Irish Adventure

I was appreciative of the starter pack with the adapters, backpacks, etc. Our coach was clean and very nice. I thought the stops planned were a nice cross section of visit highlights in Ireland. Murt was exceptional. Simply amazing.

John the Guide was great. Locations and accommodations were excellent. I particularly liked Dingle and The Marine Bar. Food in the hotels was sometimes repetitive and not great.

Incredible Irish vacation

My wife and I had a fantastic time during the “Taste of Ireland” tour in March 2023. Our tour guide Brian was hilarious and very knowledgeable about the area. I feel like I earned college credit in Irish history and culture as we drove on our tour. For me personally the highlight was seeing the Cliffs of Moher. Thank you Brian for a great time!

Love CIE

I love that CIE takes care of almost everything for you. Where to go, transportation and accommodations. The guides are a wealth of knowledge and give good recommendations.

Irish Legends

Lesly was great. I enjoyed the tour immensely. The service was amazing.

Great time!

We had a great experience on our tour of Italy. Our tour director, Diana, was on top of every aspect of the trip. The accommodations were very nice and the local guides were excellent. Our recommendations for improvement include eliminating the hotel dinner. It was not authentic Italian and was our least favorite meal. We also recommend not limiting water bottles for guests. This was probably the most problematic aspect of the whole trip. Drinkable water should be provided 24/7 and be included in the cost of the trip.

Amazing trip

We had an amazing trip, our tour guide Phillip was top notch from start to finish. Amazing food

Full of different interests, but all were worth seeing.

This was a wonderful tour.the sites that we visited were interesting and fun. The hotel accommodations were comfortable. The tour was well worth our time and money.

Hunting the northern lights

The tour was a great value, worth every penny and more. We had 36 people on tour and we became fast friends thanks to our tour guide Maria. We had a great bus and bus driver and 4 star hotels that could of been rated higher. Thanks for the wonderful life lone memories.

Second Trip

This was our second trip with CIE. I'll always highly recommend them. They are highly professional and helpful. If CIE ever comes up with a Cornwall specific trip, I'd sign on in a second.

Wonderful tour from start to finish! Our tour guide/ driver, Lesley, was very knowledgeable and helpful. I will definitely use CIE Tours again!

Excellent customer service

The customer reps were wonderful. All arrangements and question were handled quickly and completely.

Very impressed by CIE!

First class all the way! I was nervous how I would find my way to a transfer to my hotel in Iceland and our bus driver Jón Ragnar was right there with a smiling face and warm welcome at the airport the minute we landed! Our bags were always on the move by CIE and our tour guide and driver took great care of us during the entire trip. We didn’t question any of it as we always knew what to expect every day. The bus was comfortable, warm and safe. The hotels were amazing and we were well protected everywhere we visited. CIE was top notch for us during this trip out of the country.

Great trip for a Taste of Italy

everything went as planned, our tour director diana was great. she was knowledgeable about all the sites we visited, she made sure evrerything was correct and she interacted with all us tourists.

The itinerary and hotels/meals were very nicely done. The bus driver was entertaining. It would have been nice to have a real guide, as opposed to the bus driver being the "guide."

The Perfect Italy Vacation

Our tour to Italy was absolutely amazing. Our Tour Director and Bus Driver were fantastic. We wouldn't have traveled to Europe any other way and received as much information, history, and satisfaction of our trip. Diana O, our Tour Director, went above and beyond and was funny, intelligent, and fun to be with. She made sure our group was well taken care of. Rocco, our driver, made us feel safe and was always on time. The local Tour Directors were so knowledgeable and we enjoyed each day.
We don't have any complaints about our trip. Thank you CIE Tours for making our dream vacation come true.

Wonderful tour of Southern Ireland!

The whole experience from selecting the tour, through the return home we were treated to exceptional service. When we viewed the tours on the CIE website we received an email and call from Patty Kole at Ayova travel. She set everything up and found us discounts from the advertised prices! Our driver, Philip Smith, was so friendly and knowledgeable! He made the trip truly a fun adventure. The itinerary with the beautiful views of Ireland and the fine hotels with walking tours of several of the cities was amazing! This was our 5th CIE tour and we will be back again!

Amazing Tour

Everything was wonderful on this tour. Our guide Brian was absolutely amazing and very knowledgeable. I feel all activities were very well scheduled with the perfect amount of time. The only thing I can really complain about is the Wi-Fi on the bus was very spotty and did not work more than half the time. All and all I would recommend this trip to anyone!
