I could not believe how organized the tour was. I would highly recommend CIE tours. We could not have asked for a better tour guide. Bob had a great knowledge of his country.

Ireland is a friendly and beautiful country
It was a good overview of what Ireland has to offer visitors. I do wish that some of the menus could have been varied a bit more because almost every restaurant served exactly the same items

Great Trip!!!
Loved the trip and CIE did a great job. Only downsize was a couple of the hotel rooms were average at best and we had a small incident where we ended up leaving Bunratty Castle before the meal for lack of room at the table.

Fantastic trip - I highly recommend this tour to everyone.
The tour exceeded all my expectations on every level, from price to accommodations to a fabulous tour guide. There was just enough time to ourselves as well as scheduled activities. I felt like this made the trip so easy and enjoyable since someone else did all the work! I loved our Irish Tour Guide Patrick who added so much to making the tour enjoyable! I was worried it would be tiresome traveling with a bunch of strangers, but that was not the case at all! It was a fun group who were all there with the same goals - have a great time in Ireland!
