Encourage others to take this tour.

Our guide and driver Brian was the best, he explained so much of the history of Ireland. The meals were great, the stops were exactly what I wanted to see. Brian kept us well informed the entire trip..

Amazing experience!

Our tour director/driver Brian was awesome! He was so knowledgeable about the history of Ireland and all the places we went he gave us background information. He would sing, site poems, tell stories and more. Seeing all of the locations was relaxing as we let the driving to someone else to do. Amazing experience!

Our tour guide, Philip, was amazing. He was so informative and made each day an adventure. We were well prepared for each place we visited. The hotels were lovely, the food was great.

CIE is top notch. The tour director was extremely knowledgeable, personable and a joy to travel with. Accommodations were great. Food, lodging and experiences were head and shoulders above any other tour group I've traveled with. Will definitely use CIE again.

I would use them again.

All around awesome

All the sites were great. Accommodates and meals all first class. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and related to all of us.

Great Trip! I Would Go Again!

CIE Tours made it easy to understand what was going to happen and when. I appreciate the backpack, booklets and supplies they sent us to get ready for the trip.

When the plane landed, I didn't have any issue finding the airport transfer. The representative picked me out right away and told me where to get the transfer.

Our tour guide was great at letting us know the itinerary and giving us tips along the way.

The transfer to the airport after the trip was also easy to find.

Outstanding trip, wonderful guide, lodging top notch and food goid

Excellent trip all around! Will recommend!

Guides were fab, some things need a look into.

Guides were fab. George Murray was awesome. The out sourced travel agent from CIE not helpful!!!

The night excursions weren’t great. Would have rather had time to explore on my own. Clappy Doo horrible. Even venue for it was not pleasant. Bagpipe player was nice, but in that venue horrible.

Barge ride was just ok.

The dinner and show in castle-music superb everything else not. Dangerous if fire had broken out. We could have not all gotten out w those single file stairs.

WiFi on coach not enough.

Too many hotel changes!

Taste of Scotland, Northern Ireland and Ireland

CIE was wonderful, especially the tour guides George and Onya. They were informative ,helpful and took care of everything for us. I gave 4 stars because of the tour. Too many hotels and not enough time to enjoy areas that had so many pubs bd restaurants. By the time we finished most nights it was time to repack nd go to bed. Maybe a class one making scones since we seemed to have them at every breakfast.
Lastly when we first called CIE we were immediately put in touch with Jennifer a travel agent. There are several programs we had with her communication.

The team was completely coordinated in timing and able to rearrange the day’s events to accommodate the weather. The TD was so full of local knowledge, it was like attending an immersive class. Great camaraderie.

The hotels and food was excellent but the stand out was our bus driver/tour guide John. He was fantastic!

George our driver and tour guide was great!

Yes. All the meals and attractions included with the CIE Tour was impressive.

Excellent tour guide, accommodations and sites selected to visit. The travel bus was very comfortable. I especially enjoyed the visits with local farmers pub owners sheep herders and apple farm. All were so welcoming!

The tour was well organized. The hotels, the coach and sites were great!!!

Great service throughout the tour. Our tour guide was exceptional. Noel was great. Very funny. Always giving us insight not only about the sites, but also gave us insight into the culture and history of Ireland.

Let the adventure begin.

Service was exceptional, Our tour director and bus driver made the trip interesting and were very knowledgeable and you could tell how much they loved Iceland.

I had a great time on my trip and enjoyed the scenery and experiences of the culture. I would really like to go back with the CIE and experience more.

Excellent Intro to Ireland

My niece and I took the 6 day 5 nights Taste of Ireland tour. It was excellent and we enjoyed every minute. Brian, our driver and tour guide, was extremely knowledgable and gave great insight into the history and modern day life in Ireland. Hotels and meals were great. I am already looking into doing the Scotland tour with CIE next year.

We had a wonderful time. Loved Iceland! The country was beautiful and the food was great. Everything was planned very well. Enjoyed!

Brian our tour guide was fantastic, very knowledgeable and funny. .
