- MMMargaret· September 21st, 2024We did a ten day tour of Ireland. Our tour guide Jordie Ubaldo was excellent. Jordie was so knowledgeable about Ireland's history and gave us great information about the areas we traveled through as well. She was always available if a guest had any questions and did everything possible to make everyone's visit special.Show more

Show moreTrip date: September 2024 - MPMargaret· May 13th, 2024We had the best tour guide - James Creegan. He was so knowledgeable, very informative and always so prepared for each stop on the tour. His sense of humor and caring ways made the trip so enjoyable and unforgettable for the whole bus. We all were so impressed by him. He certainly set the bar high for other tour guides. Our bus driver, Tommy, was also the best with his excellent navigating skills on all of those narrow, winding roads in Ireland.Show moreTrip date: April 2024
Kim· June 3rd, 2023The trip was fantastic! We feel that we saw a lot of the country in a very organized way. The optional activities were well rounded with something to appeal to a wide variety of interests. This allowed for everyone to customize the tour to their own interests and needs. Carol Lynn Toland was our guide and she was excellent. I highly recommend this tour!Show moreBrendan Vacations commented on this reviewThank you for choosing Brenden Vacations for your travel needs.

We look forward to having you travel with us again in the future.Trip date: May 2023- MMarkStone· August 1st, 2022Find someone else. After waiting for 3 years we were finally scheduled to go to Ireland but 8 days before our trip we were informed that they had changed their vaccination policy and we couldn’t go. They refunded our money which they had for three years but although we requested a check, they refunded to a charge account that had been paid off so we only got a credit on a card we no longer use. Not to mention loss of airfares and hotel charges. We are so disappointed with their cavalier attitude and unprofessionalism.Show moreTrip date: July 2022
- EPEileen· June 13th, 2022A few clerical bumps along the way, but everything was straightened out before our trip to Ireland. Bernard Creegan was an outstanding tour director. If I ever return I would have to request him again.Show moreTrip date: May 2022
- Chante· March 19th, 2020We really enjoyed the trip. Ally was insightful and very interesting to listen to. John was a great driver. They went the extra mile to ensure we were comfortable. The hotels were nice and clean and the excursions were great. Will definitely make use of their services in the future.Show moreTrip date: March 2020

Trip date: October 2019 - MCMichael· October 16th, 2019I really enjoyed seeing Ireland for the first time thru your tour. We touched base with most of the regular spots for tourists and stopped at a few off-the-beaten path areas as well. Just one comment - the end of the tour was in Dublin and my husband and I were tired so we asked if we could rest up at the hotel instead of walking around in Dublin but the tour guide felt it would not be in the interest of the tour itself to pick us up 3 hours later to go to the restaurant for the farewell dinner - we would have to find our own way there. I thought that it would not be too much out of their way since other people expressed their fatigue as well. So we skipped the dinner. Please reconsider a change to the bus schedule for future trips - I am sure it would be to your advantage.Show moreTrip date: September 2019
