We had an absolutely wonderful time on this tour. It was jam-packed with experiences, usually 3 distinct tourism stops each day, and kept us moving throughout the week. Honestly, though, the highlight of the tour for me was our driver, Ger O'Brien. His genial manner, fun (and funny) stories, and his description of everyday and not-so-everyday Ireland was perhaps the most surprisingly enjoyable part of the tour.Show more

Too many shopping stops. More landscape or cultural stops would be an improvement. Rest stops at a gas station cause "dead time" until you get back on the bus. A rest stop at a park rest area for example. Most disappointing was the stop at a wool shop 35 minutes after we left breakfast and bathrooms. Very tacky. No one wanted to buy coffee and food again and only 10% of the bus was interested in shopping at this time. Having travelled with Trafalgar, we were surprised that our guide was also the bus driver. This led to reduced interaction. In the full 6 day experience there was only two seat changes made. Our own experience and that of others we spoke with was that our guide had very little interaction prior to us physically being on the bus, then it seemed he was in character. As a bus driver he was fabulous however as a host he seemed to over complicate instructions and explanations of areas and things to do when off the bus in the evening. Overall the company organization was excellent. We had no issues. On the tour, our daily itinerary and meal situations were never discussed at the beginning of the morning. They seemed to be disseminated as we were arriving at locations. Just going over the upcoming day before moving the bus would be a positive addition. The final hotel [Academy Plaza] was well below expectation based on our previous accommodations. The rooms were embarrassingly small. Other couples were also very disappointed. Everyone had two suitcases and there was no room to open them without having to walk around them to get in and out of the room. Very, very disappointing. Find a better hotel for the last night. That is what becomes the memory of the trip. Overall we enjoyed the tour, however, would we book the same tour? No. Thank you for the opportunity to respondShow more
