Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way - 9 Days/8 Nights
Wild Atlantic Way tour
The vacation was wonderful well worth the time. Places we visited were enjoyable. , very clean and the food was quite good every place we ate.
Overall tour was enjoyable. The driver/guide was informative and comical. He gave a terrific history of all the places we went to and even played music relevant to where we were traveling, it was a fun touch.
The only negative , was there just wasn’t enough free time to explore, but realized it is a tour. So there is an itinerary to follow. We didn’t really care for all the shopping stops that CIE deems a part of the tour. Might be better to give more free time shopping on your own., but not a deal breaker.

Taste of Italy with Sorrento - 10 Days/9 Nights
Italy with CIE is a MUST DO
The CIE Tour met and exceeded all expectations going into the tour. I had visited Italy as a young man in 1990, and it is still as beautiful as it was then. The food is spectacular everywhere we visited. Lia with CIE is an excellent guide and I hope she continues to impress everyone with her style. All locations were great to see again but sometimes felt rushed to get it all done. That's no fault of the tour, just a simple fact of visiting Italy because there is so much to see. I highly recommend CIE!

Irish Classic - 13 Days/12 Nights
CIE is the Best! Exceeded our Expectations!
Lots of fun, our group bonded from day one. Fun trip! Our experience with CIE was 5 stars all the way around. The hotels were first class, the meals provided were excellent. Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and fun. It is difficult to do everything on a tour but CIE did a great mix of natural beauty, culture, history, people and lifestyle of Ireland. I highly recommend a CIE Tour!

Scottish Isles & Glens - 13 Days/12 Nights
Scottish Isles & Glens Tour - a wonderful trip
We booked the Scottish Isles and Glens tour for 13 days in early September. We enjoyed the trip, learned a lot and enjoyed some wonderful scenery. The sites visited were interesting with a good variety: castles, estates and cathedrals; gardens, and little stops along the way to enjoy the scenery. The mix of indoor and outdoor venues was also appreciated as it was nice to be outside.
Stephen, our tour guide, was very good at providing background information or history of the sites. He was attentive to our group, answered our questions, and clearly set out the day's plans and length of time at each stop. He gave us space to explore on our own at the attractions, but was always present and available to provide information or guidance.
Our bus driver, Phil, was always friendly and engaged with the tour guests. He was amazing at managing the traffic and maneuvering many narrow roads and tight turns.
The accommodations were comfortable; a couple were a bit small and there were issues at one hotel. However, there were two other hotels which were very notable with a lot of character. The meals at the hotels were good with a few options for the entrees.
The transfers to and from the airport were convenient and well coordinated.
Overall, it was an enjoyable and memorable vacation.

Ireland South Daytripper - 7 Days/6 Nights
top notch
Everything from the pick up at the airport to the return trip to the airport was absolutely top notch. Our guide/driver Phillip was absolutely terrific. He was extremely knowledgeable about all the locations our our tours. And the way he navigated those curvy roads was nothing less than stellar. It was a truly wonderful experience. The village of Adare was absolutely charming. Everyone that we interacted with from hotel staff to store proprietors to bar tenders were extremely friendly and helpful.

Classic Sicily - 8 Days/7 Nights
Another Amazing Trip!
Beautiful sights and delicious food! This was our 4th CIE Tour, and as always, it was a wonderful experience! Our tour director, Romina, was very knowledgeable and regaled us with many stories. The hotels were very comfortable with beautiful views, and the staff were very nice and friendly. The places visited were filled with history and charm, we felt thoroughly immersed into the Sicilian culture. Another great adventure courtesy of CIE tours!!

A very organized tour service. I only had to show up, and everything else planned for me. Pick up at airport, get on a bus, check into hotel, no thinking on my part, just enjoy it. I just enjoyed everything about it. Good job CIE!

Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way - 10 Days/9 Nights
Once I arrive at the airport, CIE picks me up and my vacation starts immediately. Nothing to worry about - it's all taken care of for me. The itinerary, the hotels and the comfortable bus transportation are what brings me back to CIE.

Best of Spain - 10 Days/9 Nights
Great tour. Olaf, the tour guide was excellent. Tours were well done and informative and group got along well. Food was very good at CIE sponsored places, and guide gave good recommendations for other meals.
Hotels were very nice but if I could improve one thing it would be for the guide to hand out a sheet with instructions for how to work the showers at each hotel, as each was different, and many were confusing and difficult to use, as each hotel tries to be more "modern" than the next. People in Spain were very nice and friendly., and site tours were very well done.

Best of Spain - 9 Days/8 Nights
The trip went as planned and our guide Olav was the best!! Our travel agent Delphine Hobby is the best. We appreciated all the travel gear i.e. backpack, tags etc..It would have helped us if ground transportation from the airport was waiting holding up the sign with our name on it to be easily seen instead it was on a tablet obscured by the drivers arm. We had to call and request a driver when the driver was already present.

Taste of Italy with Sorrento - 10 Days/9 Nights
Overall great tour
Small group (23), nice people, excellent guide with extensive knowledge of Italy, great bus, and very nice hotels. Our guide was excellent and took us to the Trevi Fountain and Spanish Steps, which I was very happy to see. The cruise around Capri was also an excellent addition. Breakfasts were excellent.
The dinners and lunches were satisfactory, although I would have appreciated another option when fish was the entree. There was a lot of walking, and some closer drop-off locations would have been helpful. In Florence and Bologna, I would have preferred the city tour before the free time so we had a better sense of what was around and what to go see.
