Fabulous service with attention to detail. Every Ireland experience was fun and well planned. This trip showed the beauty of Ireland with special attention to the wool industry ( knitters will not want to miss this) .
Plenty of exploring and shopping time. You are well taken care of and treated like royalty!!

The entire experience was wonderful; they struck a perfect balance between activities and time to wonder on our own around the towns and points of interest. Our guides were exceptionally knowledgeable and were able to bring every place we stopped to life for us with their enthusiasm. Clearly, they enjoy sharing their home with visitors.

My husband and I participated in the men's knitting tour of Scotland and Shetland (he's the knitter, I'm the non-knitter enabler!), and it was an extraordinary experience. We were looking forward to the trip, but had no idea what a great experience was awaiting us. It was incredibly well organized from start to finish, and everything was planned with care, while also leaving good time for enjoying various sites on our own. Our tour guide, Kirsty, was beyond good--she was knowledgeable, hilarious, incredibly well organized, and adaptive; I honestly don't think we could have had a better or more personable guide for the unique travel experience that was planned. All the knitters on the tour had great things to say about the craft and artisanal workshops, but even for a non-knitter I thoroughly enjoyed myself and felt fully included and welcome. Every day was filled with new and interesting things, but not so packed that we felt rushed. We had the opportunity to learn a lot about the regions we visited (Kirsty has a Ph.D. in Scottish history and experience as a lecturer, so she was well positioned to answer even our most obscure questions), and we spent a lot of time off the main roads and tourist locations to engage with the country and the people in more genuine ways. Truly couldn't be happier with the tour and would highly recommend both the company and the guide without hesitation or reservation. It was a transformative adventure and one we're keen to do again!

We thoroughly enjoyed working with KnittingTours.com. They listened to our requests and thoroughly explored all our options (even when it was out of the ordinary). We felt taken care of and well prepared for our Knitting Adventure in Shetland. We would highly recommend them to other knitting groups and happily use them again for ourselves!

The entire experience was terrific! Kirsty, our wonderful guide, was amazing! Such a great time. Thank you!

I loved our tour of Scotland our tour guide was amazing as well as our bus driver
All the meals set up for us were delicious and the activities very well planned

The teachers and workshops were great, especially for an experienced knitter like myself. There was also sightseeing of the beautiful Irish landscapes and towns. And the hotel accommodations were always excellent

The tour guide was excellent and the coach was roomy and lovely. The trip to Inis Mor was special. food was excellent!

KnittingTours.com provided a quality experience from the booking process to the end of the tour. The company clearly outlines what is included, the type of accommodations and the itinerary. The classes were very instructive and the instructors very knowledgeable. Most of the tourist stops along the way were of interest, but there was always the option to opt out of a tour if it wasn't. I am a return traveller with Knitting Tours and have a trip lined up for next year so they must do a lot right!

It was especially helpful that KnittingTours arranged the preTour accommodations &hop on hop off bus. The tour was interesting and fun. The group leader & bus driver were delightful. We had a very international group of women who all had knitting and love of yarn in common - a subset of us are even in a WhatsApp message group post-tour. I hope to do another KnittingTours.com trip within the next couple of years.

My tour was very well organized with each day packed with Irish experiences I would not have be able to do on my own. Both the tour guide and coach driver took every opportunity to add to our experience. The workshop with Carol Feller was fantastic. I have been a hard core knitter for about 25 years and still learned a ton from this workshop.

What a fantastic experience! We visited so many interesting stores, had fabulous workshops by such skilled teachers and shopped shopped shopped - until we all said NO MORE YARN! (what knitter ever says that??)
Hotels were 4* +. Meals were excellent. The coach was very comfortable. Our guide, Cecilia, was remarkable with her fountain of knowledge about every thing we saw!
Trip of a lifetime, for sure. Would definitely travel with knitting tours.com again!

This was a wonderful trip. I enjoyed the classes and the history of knitting. Our hotels were great and in good central locations. And our meals were very good too.

Great trip, beautiful scenery, nice workshops and yarns you just want to have. Thanks to KnittingTours fir a very well organized trip. I have booked my next one already.

We saw beautiful scenery, stops and presenters were great. Bobby our driver was fabulous! June the tour director was blah (not excited, detached and strangely not a knitter) Hotel in Edinburgh was nice and clean. Hotel in the Shetland Islands was dated, dirty and needed repairs. Meals were ok - 4 nights of the same Shetland hotel evening meals was excessive.

Some wonderful memories and moments - but at this price point expected much more especially an animated, educated tour director.

Beware!! Get Private Travel Insurance. NO cancellation/postponement of your trip within 2 months.

The whole tour was carefully planned and executed! Every day was an adventure with awesome workshops and lectures and a few non-fiber stops along the way. Our tour manager, June, and our coach driver, Bobby, were kind, helpful and knowledgeable about the areas we passed through. The accommodations were all very comfortable and the meals we were served were great. I had a wonderful time and will be booking another tour in the future.

This was a great tour. The hotels and meals were very,
very good. Enjoyed the classes and the related activities. I am definitely going to book another trip with KnittingTours.com.

I had an absolute blast on this trip. They organized everything from pick-up and drop-off at the airport to all the tours. I really liked that all I had to do was show up. The tour guide and bus driver were marvelous and the entire experience was worth every penny. The hotels and food were fantastic. I highly recommend going on a Knitting Tour if you get the chance.

This was my first international tour and I could not have asked for a better experience. From their quick responses to questions to the actual tour everything went smoother than expected. I enjoyed every minute and would highly recommend this amazing tour company.

We had a great informative guide who had a sense of humor, and a lot of inside information re areas we visited. The driver Paul was friendly, had lots of water available, and a few “sweeties”, he wore his tartan one day, which we all loved. He was a safe driver and could manipulate the bus in tight corners. There were a variety of venues that took in the various tastes of the gals. I loved visiting a Croft seeing the sheep, and interacting with the Shetland ponies. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. I learned a lot about Scotland and the Shetlands, and the history of the area. We gals did our best to add to the economy with all the shopping we did. I would do it again.
