    Hayley

    Asked on July 15th, 2025

    I have been reviewing various Irish tours and I think the "Taste of Ireland - Tour D" would work for us (2 seniors). My dates would be Monday 13 Oct to Sat 18 Oct (am). I will be flying out on Sat am about 9:30 - so I would have to check out sometime before 7am - could we still get breakfast? Would it be possible to alter the last night hotel to one close to the airport?

    Antonio

    Asked on May 10th, 2025

    Curious about the Skellig experience. Will we be going to the actual island or just the visitor center? What are the odds of seeing puffins?

    Tour Details
    • CIE ToursOperator•Written May 2025

      The Skellig Experience will be based at the visitor center, so you may not have a clear view of the puffins, as the island is some distance away.

      Antonio

      Traveler•Written May 2025

      Is there any time in the schedule while we are in the area for us to book that on our own?

    • CIE ToursOperator•Written May 2025

      Based on the itinerary, you would not have time during the tour to visit Skellig Islands independently. It would be best to arrange this on your own before or after the tour.
