- JTJulie· June 8th, 2024I loved the tour and the guide. I felt rushed sometimes as moving hotels so often was a little difficult.Show moreTrip date: June 2024
- MKMary· May 22nd, 2024Don’t talk this tour with Colm. 43 in group way too big. Driver was also the tour guide. He NEVER stopped talking - it was unbearable - Colm was a good driver but his incessant talking ruined our vacation.Show moreTrip date: May 2024
- Susan· May 11th, 2024Austin our bus driver was a wonderful guide! The sights were just enough in my opinion with a nice amount of free time! There was NO WAY we could rent a car and see what we saw! Happy we did it and would do it again in another city when the time is right!Show moreTrip date: May 2024
- RHRoger· May 11th, 2024Excellent tour that hit popular tourist spots!Show moreTrip date: April 2024
- RHRoger· May 11th, 2024The tour was well organized and our tour guide, Pat, was excellent! He was knowledgeable and friendly to all! He made the tour fun and there was never a dull moment! We enjoyed all the stops on the tour and will definitely recommend this tour company to friends and family!Show moreTrip date: April 2024
- Amanda· April 28th, 2024This tour was great. We had Pat and he was awesome. He was knowledgeable and funny. He answered questions and had the whole bus singing and laughing. It really gives you a Taste of Ireland and leaves you wanting to come back for more. My only compliant would be the last hotel, Academy Plaza, and that compliant is that the rooms were extremely small especially when comparing them to the other hotels we stayed in. But we highly recommend and hopefully you'll have Pat because he the greatest.Show moreTrip date: April 2024
- LLLeilani· March 18th, 2024Our tour guide Noel was wonderful, funny, patient, organized, and a great driver. Learned a lot from him, as well as some humorous anecdotes and dad jokes. Hop on hop off stops were far from first hotel. Otherwise, hotels were nice. I'm not a shopper so I could have done without shopping stops and wish I could have spent more time in the cities and attractions instead. However, it is just a "taste" of Ireland and understand the reasoning behind it. Overall a great time in a great country.Show moreTrip date: March 2024

Zoe
Asked on April 6th, 2024How many people on a tour? Also, when I land in Dublin, how do I get to hotel? Which hotel is it in Dublin and is it out of the way/isolated? Since I'm booking my flights, I guess it is up to me if I want to arrive in Dublin 2 days early and/or stay an extra day...... correct?
- CIE ToursOperator•Written April 2024
The Taste of Ireland tours have 2 group sizes. Groups labeled SG are small groups with maximum 26 passengers on the coach. The other departure dates with no SG labeled are the larger group departures with maximum 44 passengers on the coach. The first hotel is at the Clayton Hotel Ballsbridge in Dublin a bit outside of the city center. Yes, just let us know the specific dates of arrival and departure!
