My wife and I highly recommend Trafalgar. Our tour guide, *Personal information removed by Feefo* did an excellent job managing all the logistics for our large group, keeping us informed during each stage of our journey, and sharing his knowledge and insights about Ireland. Plus, he was a lot of fun and sang the occasional Irish ditty as we rolled through the countryside. Likewise, our bus driver *Personal information removed by Feefo* was not only highly skilled but also kind, courteous and patient. He even took time with the group's children - letting them honk the horn and answering all their many questions. The entire experience was wonderful from beginning to end. Everything ran like a high precision Swiss watch. Thank you Trafalgar and a very special thanks to Neil and John. For those wanting a "Kick back and enjoy the sights" tour of Ireland ...this is the trip for you!

It was a great itinerary. I wish we could have driven through part if the Burren though. I was not happy the first day. We arrived in Ireland at 4:30 a.m. Too early to check in at the hotel. On other tours that ive taken, there has been a conference room that we could go into. Wed be out of the way and could fall asleep for a couple of hours. There were quite a few of us who slept through the Dublin tour...a big disappointment. *Personal information removed by Feefo* is a gem! She was wonderful!!

Tour director *Personal information removed by Feefo* and coach chauffeur *Personal information removed by Feefo* made a great trip excellent! *Personal information removed by Feefo* was exceptionally knowledgeable, sharing information that helped history challenged individuals (like me) understand the challenges faced by this nation over decades and centuries. She presented information with humor and wit, keeping everything from getting too heavy (even delving into Irish superstitions involving fairies!). The extra activities offered an up close and personal interaction with everyday Irish experiences. Music, pub visits, typically Irish sports, it all allowed us a more intense taste of Irish daily life. The hotels were all very comfortable and modern and the food was delicious! What I, as a senior single woman liked best about Trafalgar tours was the flexibility their tour style. While you could chose to only go on the morning tours and enjoy personal exploration time in the afternoon, there were many afternoon / evening group adventures offered. I realized that at I am not quite as adventurous to go out exploring along my own as I did when I was younger. Thus the option of group afternoon adventures proved very appealing to me.

Would do Irish Highlights again in a heartbeat. We were well taken care of, and enjoyed every moment. Tour guide *Personal information removed by Feefo*, driver *Personal information removed by Feefo*, and our day 1 driver *Personal information removed by Feefo* were all fantastic. Very thoughtful, intelligent, skilled – and funny. Kept us informed and provided patient reminders regularly. Could not have asked for better. Really pleased with the amount of ground we covered – east to west coasts – as well as all the little trips and excursions and opportunities to learn more about the Irish history and culture. I loved that we stopped off at small and local places – shops and villages both – and feel like renting a car to do everything we did would have taken us weeks on our own.

The land of beautiful sites! Trafalgar offers a great comprehensive trip. Everything is well organized and professional. The trip to Ireland was wonderful. The tour guide *Personal information removed by Feefo* and our bus driver were great! The places we visited were beautiful. Everyone is so friendly in Ireland and the food was good. They were very accommodating to everyone’s special needs. I highly recommend this trip to anyone thinking of visiting Ireland.

The hotel in Waterford wasn’t very nice and you couldn’t drink the water there.
