Absolutely perfect!
We loved the itinerary, the town of Adare, the people and the tour guides along the way. We liked having a home base and appreciated not having to plan ahead.

I liked the itinerary especially staying in one hotel for 5 nights. I chose Small group option s as not to have a full bus.
Only problem was before the tour. CIE would not accommodate us providing a transfer from Shannon because our flight was scheduled to arrive @11:20. Other tour company I use will accommodate any arrival/departure time. I contacted the hotel and they were kind enough to arrange a car.

A Wonderful trip for my Sister in law for her and her son, first time.
Staying in one hotel, The Dunraven in Adare ( a beautiful town) for five nights was so easy to be ready to travel each morning without having to pack each night. It was very good for first time travelers. The staff at the Dunraven were extremely nice. Dingle was a great town for lunch and desert, then Ice cream at Murphy. Doing some shopping at small stores where the staff were very pleasant and thoughtful for our needs. The Atlantic Pub in Kenmare was great and the food was great , homemade. I had stayed in Kenmare before. Moriaritys staff rembered me from the last time I was there and my nephew found some great things that were on sale. The Cliffs were windy but enjoyable. Again our driver, John, was great, we got to be friends and his concern for everyone that he was responsible for was tremendous, I wish I had gotten his home information to be able to send him a card for the holidays.
The only issue was that my free backpack fell apart from the weather and wind and rain. I love to use them when I am home for my needs and to also let my friends know who I travel with and explain to them the value of going with CIE Tours. I believe my sister in law will be planning another Ireland trip because she, her son, and my wife never ate so much fish that was so delicious. The tour was an excellent time, so worthwhile.
