4.6/5

Booking was fine. Our travel agent took care of this for us.

Excellent tour with exception of the last day

I sent an email to our CIE agent and got no response here is a copy.
Please pass this on to the appropriate official. The tour was excellent 13 days of fun and learning along with the sight seeing. The last day after we submitted our survery was to say the least a mess. The remaining 24 people on the last couple of days were told a bus was to pick us up at the hotel, the Clayton Hotel Burlington road at 8:45 AM which would take us to the double deck green Dublin loop bus for which we all had vouchers. No bus showed, the hotel people seem to think a bus would arrive at 9:30 but again no bus showed. We were told it was a 10 minute walk but no directions were available just walk down that street. At this point we had to take a cab. No one at the hotel seemed to know anything.

On the 14th day, members of our group of 8 made arrangements in accordance with the voucher provided to use for a VIP taxi pickup, We told them 8 people and 8 suitcases. This was for a 5:30AM pickup. The 1st taxi that showed up was a small mini van which was able to take 4 of the 8 in our group. This taxi left but told the remaining 4 people another taxi was on the way and would be there in a few minutes. When the taxi showed up it could only carry 2 people and there luggage. Another taxi had to be called to take the 2 remaining people to the airport. We should never have had all 8 people under 1 vouchers. In was a nightmare trying to get to the airport. Better arrangements should have been made.

For future references vouchers should only be issued to groups of 2 people or change the arrangements with VIP taxi services.

Everything was easy. The whole tour was well planned and executed. The hotels and meals were excellent, it was a great vacation experience. John Green was the best coach driver and tour guide ever.

Excellent great locations, food, and an terrific tour guide

I booked with my travel agent. But we had many questions and everytime we wrote directly to CIE and always had a quick response. The trip was excellent and the fact that our bus was always the first everywhere we went we never had lineup.
The weather was excellenct 17 days in the UK and no rain this made it wonderful although something no one can control.

I would recommend your booking service to anyone. We were very satisfied.

Deanna did a wonderful job arranging our trip. We left the details to her and the people at CIE tours.

They were great. Took care of our flights and answered any questions we had!

Wonderful experience in Ireland

I used a travel agent.

The tour was provided an in-depth visit to both history and attractions of Wales.

CIE,very well organized...San Francisco, Ca, USA

We had excellent tour guides...Marlene and driver, John. Light hearted and informative. They offered a great blend of information in addition to keeping us on schedule. Only wish is CIE Tours would offer tours to South America and other parts of Europe. We will definitely recommend CIE to our California neighbors...

Very quick and efficient. I booked by phone. I have taken four CIE tours in the past five years.

A completely successful experience.

We were impressed with how well all activities including hotel stays, luggage handling, walking tours and special visits to attractions were organized. It was an entirely hassle free tour.

We loved the selection of hotels and the meals were of excellent quality.

The highest compliments go to our tour director, Dermot Honan. His narration throughout the tour was widely knowledgeable, interesting, thorough and captivating. We hung on his every word and wished we could have taken with us a written version of all the valuable information he shared with us about Ireland.

His professional manner and excellent driving made the rides in the comfortable coach a pleasure.

We will definitely recommend your CIE tours to our friends.

Perfect blend of history and present beauty

Everyone I spoke to was wonderful, efficient and able to explain what I needed.

This trip must be added to your bucket list!

This trip was excellent and we loved every part of it! Our tour guide Lorenzo was amazing and provided us with very valuable knowledge. This trip allowed us to see all of the highlights of the major cities in Italy and our tour guide helped organize events we would like to do on our free time as well. This was an excellent trip for or first time to Italy.

Everything yes

Everything
Yes

Pretty much everything was done very well. We were very pleased.

Our Irish Gold Tour was amazing. Our guide and driver did a great job showing us the beauty of Ireland and making it all easy. Marian and Colin were thorough, professional, and also a whole lot of fun

I have taken two international tours of Ireland with CIE Tours, both I can only say were amazing. The professionalism of the tour guides, Sean Dunlevy on the first tour and Niall on the second were knowledgeable and fun. They took extra care to look out for senior guests and that each guest was able to enjoy themselves. It
Was their expertise that made me fall in love with the country, it’s history and it’s people.

I will use CIE again and know that another tour will be a grand experience and a value for the money.

Highly recommend

What a fun-filled, educational tour. We had plenty of free time as well. Every hotel was wonderful--either fancy or quaint. So much good food too!

Would Highly Recommend CIE!

It was easy to book our tour. When I had to call CIE with questions, I spoke with very professional and polite employees.

great tour guides
