incredible. Great!trip"There were so many great experiences and opportunities. I went in May.
"The tour of Ireland was a wonderful learning experience. "The Giant's Causeway was wow, wow, wow! Great food, wonderful group of travelers and a terrific guide. Declan is a super guide and has put a lot of time and heart into planning his tours. But If I had to choose, my favorites were Dingle, Cliffs of Moher, Slea Head Drive, the Burren, and the Giants Causeway as well as all the little villages we stopped in daily. "Every aspect of the tour was outstanding
I hadn't expected to enjoy the Titanic exhibit in Belfast but it was actually quite interesting and worth seeing. Bus: 4 hours. "Ireland is a beautiful country with great views, delicious food, and friendly people. "28 people and Dara really brought us together. our guide was Pascal Fitzpatrick. Tour Guide Lynn Corken is passionate about sharing Ireland and did a wonderful job covering so many topics and so much history. The Ancient Burial mounds at Newgrange we visited on our own the day before the tour and it's difficult to comprehend how they were constructed 5,000+ years ago. We were prepared for weather events. She has a calming, caring presence about her that I believe telegraphed to all of us on the tour; we all seemed to enjoy each other greatly.
Neither of us wanted to drive, so the tour seemed like the answer, and it was. Someone had brought a Bodhrán into the pub. Hmmmmm. Joe provided a very personal tour of his country with patience and respect. Aran Islands, Inishmor Island and Dun Aenghus Fort: Raining and windy. I even found a vegetarian restaurant and sat outside and people watched. Our hikes and walks were challenging, but the views they afforded were very worthwhile.
"The tour covers a wide range of experiences. Not so much a "wow" moment but perhaps my favorite part of the tour was the music Dara arranged for us. When faced with my husband's health decline, I chose to go by myself. Having a down day mid way through the tour was a good idea. Most days were cool and sunny, only 2 days of rain. I will never forget it. I think all americans should experience that and bring it back home. combination of activities and 'down time'); bus driver. I learned a lot about the traditional instruments. Technically all minors are supposed to be out of the pubs by 9 PM, although some (many in smaller towns) are notoriously lax about that. We were treated to musical experiences from energetic rhythmic dance to ethereal tones of folk ballads.
"Although seeing the Cliffs of Moher was really breathtaking, I'm a professional musician (piano and vocals) and it was a real kick to sit in with the band in Dingle where we all played "The Ashokan Farewell" complete with Irish accordion, flute and banjolin (a cross between a banjo and a mandolin)! "It was very personal. We met people all over the town who were so welcoming. Really appreciated the guide's knowledge and personability. And make sure to pick up an wool scarf or sweater in town! Add a dose of new friendships with like-minded people on tour and that's a winning recipe!
Dingle overall my favorite. Cathie led us on a journey that exceeded my expectations, even after watching RS videos and listening to podcasts. She obviously cared about us and worked diligently to make sure everyone was enjoying themselves and getting the best possible experience.
"It's difficult to pick one "wow" moment. Our tour guide and driver were exceptional, just like every Rick Steves tour we've been on. Some of the hotels were borderline deluxe! "Wonderful overall experience with knowledgeable, friendly and articulate guides, beautiful sites, and unique experiences combined with compatible and friendly group of fellow travelers. An educational experience as well as a lot of fun! It was a moment I'm sure none of us will every forget. Our guide, Susie was excellent. "We were in Kinsale on 9/11 and our local guide Barry took us to the Ringfinnan Garden of Remembrance. I continue to be thankful for being able to have visited the iconic sights of Ireland; but, even more, I value the opportunity to have learned so much about the complex history of Ireland and its people thanks to Declan. I particularly enjoyed the musical experiences which were interactive and vivacious.
"So many wow moments it is hard to say just one. No bus. We were equally impressed by the genuine commitment of the people, as described by our tour guides in Northern Ireland/Belfast/Londonderry, never to return to the way it was 1968-1998 - No matter how Brexit turns out! If you prefer to fly out of Belfast (BFS), select "multicity" on flight-booking websites. "Lynn was one of the best guides I have ever traveled with. The Tour Guides were terrific. This was our 2nd RS tour, and our first 14 day tour! Where do I start? "Better than outstanding! Our group was so nice and Pascal our guide was outstanding at keeping us safe, comfortable and having fun the whole time. Slea Head drive Our group dynamic was wonderful; what a happy, healthy group of people...Magic. "Kind of interesting , but followed a Rick Steves Scotland which was fabulous. We also enjoyed meeting the Irish people and hearing their stories from our great tour guide Joe and listening to their music. It was such a lovely day, and it was a lovely walk to see the birds. I never get this lucky. "So many to chose from! Our guide was very knowledgeable, engaging and fun. I kept thinking to myself he can't top what we did and saw today...and he did. Olive was like a member of the family of travelers.
From day 1 through day 14 I was impressed with accommodations, food, travel companions and knowledge shared by Pascal and all of the local guides. By Rick Steves and Pat O'Connor. We were treated to a night of music by local musicians AND a few dances from a member of the Riverdance troupe. Can't wait to take our next journey! And the Hurricane was neat also although our guide may not agree. I particularly enjoyed the sights and people of Northern Ireland."Outstanding! Everything was just as we anticipated: well-planned, well-organized, free time, unique experiences, cultural immersion and more. Temperatures below 32°F cause headlines, and days that break 80°F — while increasing in recent years — are still rare. No matter when you go, expect rain — Ireland doesn't have a reliable dry season, as rainfall is ladled out evenly throughout the year.
