Irish Tourism  Avis 

We just returned from a great 8-day tour of Ireland through Irish Tourism. Niamh was an excellent planner. She was able to quickly change anything we needed changed. Through her, we hired a personal driver for our party of 6, John Dunphy through Kinsale Executive Travel. He listened to what we were interested in and helped us plan each day to exactly meet our expectations. He was a wealth of information about Ireland and its history. By the end of the week, he was one of us! I would highly recommend hiring a driver - you get to go where you want, avoid the crowds, and nobody in your group has to drive and miss all the beautiful countryside.

As a first thing, I would like to give 5 stars to our advisor, Niamh, who patiently assisted ua during the booking process as we had a few special requests to accomodate. He was helpful and we never felt pressured to close the reservation. Great, really great customer service.
Besides this, the tour we took, 10 days Southern Ireland, was carefully crafted and the itinerary is properly designed to minimize useless driving while enjoying the many things along the route.
Depending on the time of the year, give a little latitude to the listed driving times as busiest periods require a little bit more.
Attractions are carefully described and we were never disappointed. Accommodations: this was a nice surprise as we did not book for the luxury tier but in the end we always stayed in 4 and 5 star properties except for a couple of nights in Galway, where the room was anyway clean, well appointed and maintained as it was the facility overall, with the restaurant offering a fancy vibe and a great breakfast. A suggestion for improvement is related to stops where two itineraries are possible. Maybe offering or suggesting the possibility to extend stays in such places during booking would be a good thing but I’m saying this now because we loved our trip so much that we are sorry we did not have enough time to see everything. Good reason to be back though. Overall, it was a pleasure and extremely easy to work with Irish Tourism. Highly recommended

Just returned from an excellent 2 week trip and have to recommend the company Irish Tourism. They tailor your itinerary to the places you’re looking to visit, arrange accommodation and train travel through out the country. The one we did was an independent tour but had numerous day trips done with small groups , Ring of Kerry and Dingle coast were a couple. Along with other places that we were hoping to visit. Well paced, never felt rushed and even made a change to itinerary half way through to allow us a little more time in Belfast and Dublin. Ask to speak with Nuala Sheedy - absolute pleasure to deal with, goes above and beyond and had no unwanted surprises. It was one of most seamless vacations we have ever had and cost was very affordable. Big breakfast every morning and hotels were centrally located and very nice.
You will not regret the personalized service and expertise this lovely woman delivers.

My family and I had an incredible Irish Tourism vacation and absolutely loved everything about it. The trains from Dublin to Kilarney and back were comfortable and convenient, and the day tour to Galway with a private driver was a special treat with a fabulous guide. The hotels were welcoming and easy to find, with delicious Irish breakfasts each morning and friendly staff. The day trips were amazing with the most engaging and knowledgeable tour guides: we learned so much about Ireland's past and present and especially loved the castles, museums, and parks. We were thrilled most of all that we had a safe, special, and unforgettable experience together as a family with our two children. The communication and coordination from the team made this possible and we are very grateful.

Very accommodating, great recommendations, excellent follow-through providing all needed documents for rental car, lodging, and vouchers. Helpful contact for any and all questions while we were traveling!

I have traveled all over the world, and this was one of the most seamless and fun trips that I have been on. Kudos to Niamh and the team at Irish Tourism for providing such a well-executed, reasonably priced and fun itinerary that was easy to follow. We had a fabulous time doing a custom train-based tour to Dublin, Killarney and Galway. I would highly recommend their services.

Our trip was fantastic! Our hotels were nice and close to the train stations so there was no stress travelling between our destinations. Activities and excursions were fun and memorable! Completely recommend working with this group to organize our trip across Ireland!

All inclusive along with the rental car. Easy access. Fine lodging and the tour book helped significantly in our visit.

I worked with Maria to plan my boyfriend and I’s trip to Killarney and Dublin. She was very easy to work with and was super understanding when i had a million questions or wanted to change things around. This was our first trip to the country and we weren’t sure the best way to plan everything we wanted to see. Maria was very helpful in steering us in the right direction! Our driver Kieran was spectacular! He knows all the best places to stop and get a view in on our way to our destinations, and went above and beyond our expectations as our driver. He is very down to earth and has a kind heart, we miss him already! And will surely ask him to be our driver next time we come to Ireland. He really made our trip the best time. So, we highly recommend to go with Irish Tourism, they were wonderful!

Wonderful trip we loved seeing Ireland the itenerary was great and loved the hotels and day trips to ring of Kerry, dingle peninsula, Dublin was our favorite city but loved Cork and Galway also the Cliffs of moher were beautiful and unforgettable!

It was such a pleasure to work with Linda L. She listened to what we wanted to experience and boy did she deliver. The car and places to stay were decided for us ahead of time and no effort on our part. The accommodations she booked for us were perfect!! In wonderful locations with all the amenities we enjoy. Easy to get to all the places with ease of walking or driving. The possible itineraries shared of what you could explore as you traveled from point A to point B were so extensive and detailed it gave us all the information we needed to decide what we wanted to visit. I personally loved the disclaimer that you will NOT be able to do it all bc I would have tried to!! Just means we need to come back!! Irish Tourism was such a gem to find to plan our visit to the Emerald Isle.

Nuala helped us tailor our self driving tour to our specific wishes and accommodated any changes we asked for. She had lots of great suggestions. When we stayed in a city centre, it was always in walking distance to pubs, restaurants and shops. We never had to drive in the evening.

We recently returned home after a two week tour of Ireland. We were excited about the trip for many months in anticipation of this vacation for our 25th Anniversary. We have been on many trips across the world over the years and without question this was the pinnacle of all vacations. The itinerary Maria compiled for us and the hotels she chose were all exceptional, with true Irish hospitality wherever we went. Kieran was our driver and tour guide throughout this trip. This gentleman was nothing short of exceptional as both a guide and driver. He was well informed, punctual and has become a dear friend to both my husband any myself. The entire trip was a success that went above and beyond all of our expectations. Thank you!

We had a great time! Attractions selected were well-chosen, hotels booked were excellent and the drivers were well -informed and extremely helpful. Our trip was seamless.

We loved our 6 day self drive Ireland adventure with Irish Tourism the car hire was seamless and our accommodation fantastic allowing us the freedom to explore the surrounding areas at our own pace.
Highly recommended and we will return.

Worked with Niamh from Irish Tourism for our self drive holiday in Ireland a few weeks ago now and would thoroughly recommend them to people wanting to visit Ireland.
Miamh went through a fair few options with us and spent the time putting together a package so we didn't feel rushed and got to see some beautiful places, would've loved to spend more time there but unfortunately time wouldn't allow us that, everybody we had dealings with were lovely people, the motels we stayed at more than accommodating and only too happy to help further with local sights, restaurants, attractions and the such.
So glad that Irish Tourism was able to help us and so happy with the way Niamh put our whole package together for us, the ease of being able to pay in instalments was an added bonus and took a load off our minds with the poor exchange rate the Australian dollar has.

Irish Tourism was recommended to us by a friend who also had a Great experience using them. Maria did an outstanding of planning our trip. Not having been to Ireland before, we relied upon her for recommendations for our tour. She did a fabulous job!
Right from the planning stage she listened to what we wanted and planned the tour to fit our desires. The trip itself couldn't have been more flawless. From the time our driver picked us up until he dropped us off 10 days later she created the perfect trip. First, she provided us with a guide with suggested points of interest that we could use to select our itinerary. If we were unsure of a site, our bus driver gave us his input. He also made many suggestions and took us to places that weren't on the suggested itinerary. Maria also booked us in some outstanding accommodations. I really can't give enough superlatives to the job that she and Irish Tourism did. If there were 6 stars, they certainly deserved it. I would highly recommend Irish Tourism to anyone traveling to the Emerald Isle.

Our 10-day self-drive Ireland tour was amazing, thanks to Niamh and Irish Tourism. We were able to customize our itinerary with ease, and the hotel selections (manors and castles) did not disappoint. There is no doubt that we would recommend Irish Tourism for anyone looking for a well-organized and seamless trip to the beautiful country.

Linda arranged great hotels for our stays in each city that we visited. We really liked the Loch Lein house in Killarney because it had more of a B&B feel for our large group (13). She also did a nice job handling three slightly different itineraries for our group and got everything correct so we had no issues with hotels or rental cars throughout the trip. She also provided timely updates throughout the booking process.

They had a wide selection of tours to select. We chose Wild Atlantic Way and they adapted it to meet our requirements, ie a selection of 4 star hotels in the centres of towns. All hotels were excellent. They provided an extensive guide to the tour with things to see and the best and most scenic routes to take.
