I loved staying in one place all week. we had hopedto spend more time in the town of Adare. We had no time to enjoy the ambiance of Adare. Other than that, everything was wonderful! Our driver was great, attentive and knowledgeable.

Great Trip

Everything went very well. We did not have one problem. Good Drivers, Good Tour speakers great site seeing
The group was also excellent.

Organized and on time. I would have like more time at each location to see beautiful things. Guides were knowledgeable, interesting and affable. Could have used 3 days in Edinburgh. All the culture I wanted to see in Scotland was in the Highlands and Edinburgh. Would have liked more time there.

Ireland gets better everytime

We had a wonderful time. Our tour guide, John was excellent. We loved staying in 1 hotel and daytripping around the West coast of Ireland

Great tour

This tour was delayed for two year but CIE was able to come through and make it work!

Best way to see Ireland

Recommended CIE to coworkers traveling to Ireland. They thought of everything. Back pack, VAT card, adapter.... A++ Our tour guide/ driver John, is an amazing guide.He kept our group on time and enthralled with his cultural knowledge and history.
We arrived at the Dublin hotel about 4pm. It was too late for those flying out the next day to see or do much in Dublin. Stay an extra day or too as to not miss anything on the last day of the tour

Scottish & Irish Gold...full of great experiences

I really enjoyed my recent trip to Scotland and Ireland with CIE Tours. The tour bus was very comfortable and it had large windows to take in all of the beautiful sights. The variety of the hotels we stayed at made the trip even more interesting...all of them were very nice and comfortable. The meals that were provided in the tour really exceeded my expectations in the quality and variety. I enjoyed the special shows that were included with some of the meals. I believe I saw many more things going on the CIE Tour than I would have if I had planned and driven the trip myself. I highly recommend the Scottish and Irish Gold tour with CIE.

We booked through a travel agent however when we had questions your agents were very helpful when we called them.

Great Experience

Great food. Good people. Unique destinations and activities. Comfy bus. Great tour guide. Would definitely do it again.

Perfect!

Everything was taken care of and our driver Paddy was fantastic. Professional, friendly - I would highly recommend CIE tours to anyone and look forward to taking my next one!

Wonderful memories!!

I booked this tour through my travel agent. Although I loved the tour, I would have liked more time at eat stop - at least another half hour. There is quite a bit to see, and as I enjoy savoring my experiences, more time would have been great. Our tour guide was wonderful, and our driver was extremely knowledgeable as well. Their senses of humor made the trip outstanding!

As I am a night owl, the early morning hour take off times were a challenge! Another plus was that we had a small group on the tour which allowed us mini photo opps stops.

I met new friends, and am glad I get to stay in touch with them!

And I love the "hairy coos!!"

Prompt. Informative. I used the “ chat” several times with good success. Also, phone calls were helpful in making sure my sister and I were together.

Great Ireland Tour - CIE

CIE handled all the logistics of our tour - transportation, hotels, luggage, meals - it was great! Our tour guide, Harry Fisher, was quite knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, and thoughtful. Harry really made the trip super enjoyable. I highly recommend CIE for Ireland tours.

Once-in-a-lifetime trip for our family of 6! Highly Recommend!!

From the beginning, our travel agent spoke very highly of CIE Tours. We were booking for 6 people - only 2 months out!! We were able to secure our first choice of tours. AND - the itineraries, backpacks, maps, guides and other goodies were unexpected but very much appreciated.

Could not have had a better time with CIE.

On my trip to Scotland, the only matter that bothered me was we were late getting into the airport (1 :15 pm). We had been told the bus would meet us and take us to the hotel. Later on I found out the buses only run to noon. I was never told that by my travel agent. Other than that, everything was amazing. Our tour director was the best,
Pat O'Reardin, I would travel with him again, the sweetest man, our driver, Mark Ennis ,was out standing. Such pleasant men. They made my trip worth every penny.
Thank you for an unforgettable time in Scotland, I will travel CIE again.

The ease of picking out which tour we wanted, to booking and paying for it was excellent.

Touring a New Country with CIE

This was our second CIE bus tour. We like to visit a country for the first time in this manner. We find it informative and love that we don’t have to drive.
Once in Ireland and this time in Scotland. Both times our tour guides were fantastic!
Booking it was easy. The only issue was our plane seats weren’t assigned. When I tried to it seemed I was in limbo with no one able to assist me. Not CIE and not the airline until 48 hours prior to start of trip.
I would have chosen a different hotel in Glascow, otherwise the others were fine.

Enjoyed tour very much. Guide was great. Loved the itinerary.

Fantastic trip!

The booking process was easy and the tour was outstanding! Our guide, Di, was friendly and so knowledgeable. Our driver, John, was skillful and such a gentleman. Couldn’t be happier with the whole experience!

Amazing tour on all counts!

The Irish Pub Tour through CIE was truly amazing! Our driver Peter was the best tour guide anyone could ever ask for. His expert handling of our motor coach was only surpassed by his extraordinary knowledge of Irish history we learned throughout our trip. Was well worth the wait after being rescheduled 4 times due to the pandemic. I’d highly recommend this trip to anyone looking to see many incredible sights such as castles, cathedrals, beautiful countryside, as well as many, many pubs. A true flavor for much of what Ireland holds.
