    Is vegeterian food available? Also, is a shared room available for this tour?

    Meals
    • Brendan VacationsOperatorWritten March 2026

      If you have a meal request, we can request it from Operations team. However, we cannot control all the meals that are offered in the restaurants so, we cannot give a 100% guarantee that every restaurant we go to will have their meal request, but our Operations team and the Travel Director will do the very best they can to assist the client.

      Additionally, this tour has a twin shared room which costs CAD 8,316.00 per person.

    Lauren

    Asked on February 24th, 2026

    Interested in traveling Scotland & Ireland, with my two grown (age 30s) children. I'm curious whether we can find rooms that accommodate three, and would like to know the mode of transportation... train? cars?

      Lauren

      TravelerWritten February 2026

      First, what is the mode of transportation? We are hoping to find a rail tour. Next, how does the booking of rooms work? Are we required to book two rooms? Is it possible to pay slightly less and find a room with two double beds or two twins + cot?

    • Brendan VacationsOperatorWritten February 2026

      We used a motorcoach to travel city by city for this tour. We also use ferry for some days on the itinerary. Since there are 3 adults travelling for this tour, we can offer a tour 1 twin room and 1 single room. If guest wishes to be in a triple room, please note that triple rooms are suitable for two adults and one child (three adults may find rooms too small as they often have one double and one foldaway bed and limited suitcase space).
