The level of organization to synchronize all the variables in a tour of this type is excellent. All the features of the tour were interesting and a pleasure to experience. Our primary guide and coach driver was as good as can be hoped for, both for his commentary and his driving skills. There was a lot to keep up with and a pretty busy schedule involved, and handled quite well. We especially enjoyed the events when local story tellers and musicians performed and the sheep dog herding demonstration. A few minuses: Our room wasn't ready in our Kilkenny hotel even though we arrived a half hour past check in time. The dinners served at the hotels were very similar and while satisfactory to eat were not in any way particularly special. The audio system on the coach was less than ideal, with some static and noise in Peter's presentations. We're glad we chose to tour Ireland and happy we chose CIE to provide the tour for us.Show more
