4.6/5

Everything was planned out for us, they provided us everything we needed for our trip. I would use CIE again

This was a rebooking of a cancelled 2020 trip, originally booked in 2019, but delayed due to COVID. This was essentially the same trip, different date. The original booking went great. The re-booking had a few challenges assuring the trip vouchers got applied, and other details. It all got done but it went less polished. This is our 2nd CIE trip and I have and will recommend CIE to others.

Fun & Exciting travels

We booked our tour throught a travel agent. It was a smooth experience.

Second trip with CIE and it is just really professional

Well Planned and executed trip
Leader of tour was fantastic.

An Exceptional Emerald Isle Experience!

Everything from the customer service to set up my tour prior to the attention to details during the tour was flawless. When I had questions, they were answered very professionally. I thoroughly enjoyed our tour bus driver Murt who had very detailed descriptions of the travel itinerary along with his own brand of humor and passion about the history of Ireland. He was exceptional when it came to health and safety too. Of course being my first time in Ireland, I really want to return again with CIE Tours. And do other tours with you group too. Thank you.

Would have been 5 stars except the service in the US was not good. Inability to speak with agents was a chore. Waits exceeding 45 minutes+. The folks in Ireland were terriffic and would not hesitate to recommend.

Great Experience and Holiday!

Very fun and enjoyable tour. I would definitely do another tour witch CIE.

The tour guide, Brian McDermott was excellent. He was very knowledgeable

The tour guide, Brian McDermott, was excellent. He was very knowledgeable about history of Scotland and England and the various sites on the tour. Adrian , the driver, was excellent in navigating the narrow roads in the rural areas and in narrow areas in the cities.

Irish Adventure

Fantastic tour! Very well organized, beautiful accommodations and great history lesson of the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland! Couldn’t ask for a better tour guide than Brian Hanrahan! He had me learning, LAUGHING & even shedding a few tears with his heartwarming stories and singing! A++
Met wonderful people in our tour group as well. So fun!

Beautiful Scotland

This is the second time we have taken our four grandchildren on tour with CIE. This year it was Scotland, in 2019 we saw the Wild Atlantic Way in Ireland with CIE. Both trips were wonderful.

Stress free travel

I would definitely recommend CIE Tours based on our experience. Our coach driver Sam was wonderful. The rooms and hotels were excellent. The stops were well planned. All very stress free.

We’re planning a trip to I eland in 3 years. Will definitely consider CIE.

Once we arrived in Ireland everything was perfectly arranged. Our only problem with CIE was the difficulty of getting an agent on the line. When they did answer, however, they took all of the time needed.

Would love to go again was wonderful

Nice hotels, great tour guide and driver, unique opportunity to visit sheep farm

Most Fantastic Trip Ever

I would book a CIE tour again. My travel agent was very helpful in booking this trip, but she was not from CIE. The thing that made our trip the best was that CIE has the most incredible top-notch tour guide Marlene Sullivan that really brings the history of Ireland alive and really makes the tour a joy to be on. To me she felt like a favorite aunt always looking out for us. She also made my birthday and my wife's birthday a really great experience filled with fun. Yes, you heard that right, my birthday and my wife's birthday are only two days apart and we celebrated them while on the CIE tour. Then you have a really outstanding bus driver Domhnall Healy as well that really makes you feel safe with his superb driving. The way these two individuals represent CIE, they should be the role models for all new staff members to learn from because they were extremely fantastic in their roles.

Awesome Irish tour guide!

This Scotland/Ireland tour changed my life! I learned so much about my Irish heritage. Joe is knowledgeable, funny and shared his Irish heritage with so much pride. If you have the chance to tour with Joe, he will change your life. Killarney was definitely my favorite town!

Absolutely amazing trip!

We originally booked our trip for March of 2020. We were finally able to go in June 2022. It was amazing!!! PJ, our tour guide, was phenomenal. He was kind, funny, and extremely knowledgeable. It was great not having to worry about booking hotels and attractions or driving from one location to the next. Just hop on the coach and PJ got us there. All we had to do was enjoy the beautiful scenery of Ireland. The tour packed in all the must-see attractions along with places we didn’t know we wanted to see, and we loved every part. We will definitely book another tour with CIE in the future. Thanks for a memorable and fun experience!

I had a travel agent do my booking.

Great Irish Adventure

The staff was very friendly and answered all of my questions prior to the trip. The tour was fabulous. Our guide, Paddy was great. Would book again.
