    Asked on September 8th, 2026

    What specific hotel will we be staying at when in Killarney on day 3 & 4?

    Accommodation
    • TrafalgarOperator•Written September 2026

      You will be staying in Killarney from day 4 to day 6 of your adventure, and the planned hotel is Hotel Killarney (hotels are subject to change). This is a great base for exploring the Ring of Kerry and the beautiful national park nearby. Hotel allocations can occasionally change due to operational reasons, but if that happens, we always use a similar standard of accommodation.

    Asked on August 25th, 2026

    Are trains used in transferring from one city to another?

    Transport
    • TrafalgarOperator•Written August 2026

      For this adventure, the transportation between cities is provided by motorcoach and ferries only. Trains are not used as part of the included transfers on this itinerary.

      This style of travel is a great way to see more of the landscape along the way and enjoy a comfortable, door-to-door experience between the key highlights of your trip.

    Audrey

    Asked on July 9th, 2026

    Are days 7, 8 and 9 correct? Seems to go from Ireland, to Scotland and back to Ireland?

    Tour Details
    • TrafalgarOperator•Written July 2026

      You're absolutely right to double-check the flow. For the 15‐Day Trafalgar Best of Ireland and Scotland adventure, the correct sequence is:

      Day 7: Ballina to Derry/Londonderry (Northern Ireland)
      Day 8: Derry/Londonderry to Belfast, including a visit to the Giant's Causeway
      Day 9: Belfast to Glasgow via ferry crossing to Scotland

      So, the itinerary moves through Ireland/Northern Ireland first, then crosses to Scotland, and does not go back to Ireland after arriving in Scotland.

    Pam

    Asked on October 14th, 2025

    Do we pass by Connemara and the Cliffs of Moher? Is the tour in English? Can I have a French audio guide during the visits? Do I have some freedom during this stay, for example if I don't want to go on a particular visit? Or for the meals not included? The outbound flight to get to Dublin? Should I handle it myself or can tourradar help me? To know the nationality of the people who make this type of stay if possible.

      This tour does not include Connemara or the Cliffs of Moher and will not pass by, it is conducted in English without French audio guides, allows flexibility to skip certain visits and choose your own meals when not included, and typically attracts travelers from English-speaking countries like the US, UK, Canada, and Australia. You have the option to do your own plan even during the tour, just be sure to coordinate with the travel director for guidance and to stay aligned with the itinerary. For meals not included, you have full flexibility to decide where and what to eat, with the tour covering 14 breakfasts and 6 dinners. The adventures we offer will not include international airfare, as travellers can join the trip from many different countries.
