This is my second tour with Knitting Tours and the best by far. As a knitting tour, Dublin, Ireland was an excellent location. However, the planned activities and experiences exceeded my expectation. Besides knitting as a focus of the tour, the offer of other crafts such as baking and silvering were an unexpectedly fun, learning experiences. The Tour guide was personable, knowledgeable and entertaining. The coach driver was clearly an expert and guided us with confidence. Overall, best I’ve experienced.

The trip was so well organized. We had a chance to meet local people and visit behind the scenes locations on mills and farms. The people we met were all warm and inviting. We will definitely return to Ireland!

Wonderful experience. Great sites workshops and demonstrations and our guide Kirsty was top notch!!

A well planned itinerary with an expert guide and comfortable coaches made for an amazing adventure traveling and knitting our way around Scotland. Well done KnittingTours, well done!

Great experience. Everything was taken care of for us. Loved every aspect of the trip from the tour guides, transportation, hotels, itinerary. Would do another trip for sure.

I recently went on a knitting tour of Scotland. My tour guide, Kirsty, really made the trip. She was warm, knowledgeable, inclusive and organized. The trip overall was excellent. Wonderful classes and great time with some sheep, goats and cows! I would not hesitate to take another trip with knitting tours.com.

The tour guide, Michelle, was great, as was the driver, Senan. All hotels were clean and well appointed. Every class was informative and fun. I met so many lovely people and saw amazing sites. Thank you!

Excellent guide Michele and driver Senan.Varied itinerary which included sightseeing, knitting classes and Lovely countryside
Iconic locations included in the cliffs of Moher and Kylemore Abbey as well as more unusual places such as a working sheep farm. A highlight was the island of Inis oirr and gracious host Una, island was beautiful despite terrible weather.
Unfortunately, the trip coordinator Maria was not as organized and informative before the tour as I had hoped. Despite this I am going back for Scotland this fall. Also teacher Anne O’Malley was not engaging, And to be honest, a bit patronizing. I would not take another class with her

This tour was very well organized and well run and the activities were all interesting, educational, and memorable. The hotels and the food were fabulous! We had some free time as well. I went on my own but quickly made friends. I came home with plenty of yarn and wonderful memories.

This was my third trip coordinated through Knitting Tours. First the guides are exceptional, they know the history, and subsequently the historical threads that weave throughout our journey. Their professionalism behind the scenes, addressing our needs, their respectful prodding to be on time but always aware of time needed to explore. We never rushed, it all seemed to be just right, despite wind, rain and an occasional traffic diversion, both the guide and driver delivered us safely and within expected timelines. The tour itself was full of sights and experiences that were beyond the typical tourist attraction, lunch at a revered golf club, Liz Spillane’s extraordinary home for workshop and tea, Oona’s cafe by the sea for instruction, cooking lessons and St Bridgid’s cross, all of this and more made this memorable journey. And then there’s the yarn, the knitters from all around the world, sharing the memory making with laughter and enthusiasm.

It was very easy to book the tour. The tour itself was amazing. The workshops were very informative and the sight seeing was just beautiful. This was made possible by our tour guide who had a lot of knowledge and was able to provide information on everything we saw and did. Our driver was also very knowledgeable on what we saw in Ireland and this all contributed to a very memorable experience.

Irish Tourism Group is exemplary. For me, as an 86 year old traveling alone the most important feature is not feeling alone. Everyone is so friendly and so focused on their love of knitting. I always feel part of the group.

What a wonderful mix! Barcelona set the stage for a many-faceted Knitting experience. We learned new knitting techniques, saw Gaudi's fabulous architecture, were treated to an amazing Flamenco show, were tempted by irresistible yarn and made friends with adorable with alpacas. Oh yes, and our tour guide was amazing.

I'm satisfied

I enjoyed my tour very much. We saw some wonderful places in Madrid and Barcelona. Our tour guide Cecília was excellent and took good care of our group. Our driver Christian was also excellent.

I have been on two trips with Knitting Tours and would recommend their products. The first tour was to Scotland including Shetland. The instructors for the classes are well known and respected knitters who were very warm and helpful. We went to historic and cultural places that were beautiful and interesting. The guide was very informative and helpful. My most recent tour was their first quilting tour. We started in Edinburgh and went south to York and the Lakes District in northern England. The hotels were very comfortable and the food was good. I really enjoyed the three classes we had. The teachers were thorough and very helpful. I learned techniques that I intend to use in my future quilting projects. If you want a quilting or knitting tour of Ireland or Great Britain I would highly recommend this company.

I reached out to KnittingTours.com to help me put together my dream knitting trip to Scotland - including Shetland. I was putting the trip together for a group of Male Knitters I belong to, and therefore, I wanted to make a a few changes to get more of a male perspective to Scotland and Shetland. From the very first correspondence, everyone at KnittingTours.com was professional, helpful and went above and beyond.
We put together an amazing itinerary- and the trip turned out way better than I could have imagined! All 25 guys who went on the trip were blown away by the trip - and we had an amazing time. I can't recommend KnittingTours.com enough. Ann, Sarah and Milda all made the planning and execution flawless! THANK YOU!
