Irish Classic - 13 Days/12 Nights
Great vacation
This was our first international vacation to Ireland and it was a very good tour . The places we went to were great and the scenery along the routes were beautiful. The tour guide Liam was very good and knowledgeable. He entertained us and knew a lot of Ireland’s history . Our tour bus driver Peter was fantastic driver and friendly. We met so many nice people in our tour group. We had a lot of fun. The food was great. This tour is a well planned tour and you see many sights. I would recommend this tour and CIE tours. In fact we are planning another trip and will be using CIE tours again.

Best of Britain - 9 Days/8 Nights
Awesome tour of UK highlights!
First off, we had the best tour guide from Britain! Lisa not only was a wealth of knowledge & knew the history of all the sights we saw, her sense of humor & connection with our travel group made this a phenomenal tour. Great hotels, good food, unexpected stops at other points of interest, made our whole trip exceptional. The sights we saw were all highlights for England, Wales & Edinburgh in Scotland — all things we wanted to see. Well organized, prompt timing for touring, & we just loved the sights selected to see. An amazing trip all the way around!

Fabulous trip
This was a bucket list trip for us. Every detail was taken care of. All we had to do was show up. Ollie was a wonderful guide and driver. We were able to see and experience so much more than we would have on our own

A wee bit o' Scottish "craic!"
Our tour guides (Keith and Laurence) were great. They had an overwhelming knowledge of Scotland and Ireland. They knew how to handle all different types of personalities and any situation that came up. The food was great. All of the staff at the hotels were very friendly and helpful. The second hotel we stayed (Muthu) was a little dated. It seemed like it was slowly being updated. The bed was new and clean but the carpets and furniture were old, stained, and ripped. Not really anything to do there, but I think it was more of a place to sleep halfway through the tour. Overall, the trip was great, wish we had taken a longer trip because we drove through and near some places we would've like to have seen. Love the people of Scotland!

Scottish Dream - 8 Days/7 Nights
Worth the time and the expense
CIE's service was outstanding both before and during the tour. This was my fourth CIE tour, and it didn't disappoint. CIE coordinated the trip perfectly. Our tour guide, Linda, and driver, Bryan, were amazing.

The tour was managed like clockwork. We got to see a little bit of so many things. The guide and driver took good care of everyone. Wish we had more time built into the schedule.

We had the best possible time on our CIE Tour! We loved Scotland and Ireland and would go back tomorrow if we could! The guides were friendly, helpful and caring. They go out of their way to help you and make your trip special. The lodging was wonderful and full of historic charm. The food was gourmet every night! I highly recommend CIE Tour services to book your bucket list vacation!

Fantastic Trip
We had the most amazing time on this tour! Our driver Ger was simply the best! We saw everything that was described in the itinerary. The hotels were very good, as were the meals. Plenty of time to look around the sites and to shop. Would definitely travel with CIE again!

TOP NOTCH, Fabulous, Great Experience. I do not have time to leave an appropriate review as it would be a short book. Our tour guide was above and beyond what anyone could have ever asked for. (Brian H)

Scots Irish Tour - 15 Days/14 Nights
If you want to visit Scotland and Ireland, do it with Colm Willis and CIE Tours - the best!
The best part: People, places and value. Colm Willis was our tour director and coach driver. He is a real all star in the CIE line up. We could not have asked for a better person. He is a real asset to CIE. I have a couple of photos of him and his coach. I would like to send copies to him and CIE, but I have no idea how to do so. Please advise. Places, we saw more of Scotland and Ireland than we ever thought we would. It was a trip of a lifetime. The value was outstanding. The people and places far out distanced the cost.

Taste of Ireland - 7 Days/6 Nights
Tour was well organized and our guide, Noel, was wonderful. Our meals were very nice, especially the Bunratty Castle and Merry Ploughboys Pub dinners. The attractions were interesting and varied and well narrated by Noel.

Scots Irish Tour - 11 Days/10 Nights
Very nice accommodations and meals. Well curated attractions. Very good, and broad range, of attractions giving a great sampling of Scotland and Ireland. On the other hand, a couple of days were a tad too long. I didn’t need to tour quite as many castles, although I would have liked to have toured Doune Castle. I particularly liked when we stayed at the same hotel for two nights; it made the pace less harried.
