The tour as a whole was great. One thing we did not like was staying in a hotel that was not near the town and having to dine in hotel without a choice. Also we thought that we spent too much time in the coach and not enough time at the destination. Along the way to destinations the highways were not conducive to looking at things along the roadways. When we did Ireland with CIE we took back roads and this was much more enjoyable for sightseeing!Show more

Everyting about the tour was excellent. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that we never received our welcome back-pack with all the accessories of name tags, luggage tags, adaptors etc. which was part of the contracted tour price!! We asked the tour quide but he did not know why. And we filled in the evaluation form at the end of the tour and stated the same thing! When we will get what we paid for ??Show more
