- Susan· December 17th, 2019The cabins were nice, the staff were very good, the food was delicious, the tours were interesting, and the Cruise Director, in particular, was excellent. Would not recommend going as a single traveller, however, as vast majority were couples or friends travelling together, so it was quite cliquey with the same people sitting together at meals, especially dinner. Plus, it was 90% Australians and Kiwis, and a broader mix of nationalities would have made it more interesting. The best part was seeing all of the various cities and towns along the rivers. Very nice trip overall.Show more
- Elaine· October 9th, 2019The tour was very well executed and the only criticism I have is that we spent much of the time on trains, buses and ferries. We did not have enough time on the ground to explore the towns and cities we passed through. We did have plenty of time to immerse ourselves in the major points of interest such as the Giant's Causeway, the Cliffs of Moher, Blarney Castle, and Hillsborough Castle. We covered a lot of territory, the accommodations were exceptional (as was the food) and our guide did a wonderful job of making sure that we got the most possible out of the trip.Show more
