This tour provides a full range of discovery experiences of the UK & Ireland in comfortable hotels, a luxury bus, expert tour guide and obiliging competent bus driver, included and optional activities, great fellow travellers all of which made our holiday a great time with no “buts”. We would recommend this tour to everyone.

The itinerary was excellent overall including most of the highlights of each country we visited. Our hotels were generally very good with excellent locations and comfortable rooms. Some of the optional experiences should have been part of the tour itinerary such as the tour of the Cardiff castle, since otherwise there would have not been much else to do. We were also disappointed with the Liverpool optional Beatles tour. We expected to see the first homes of the Beatles among other sights. Our tour director Peter Staff was excellent with knowledge of local sights and history which added much to the tour. Our bus driver Gary was also excellent.
