Our Ireland trip was well organized, the hotels we stayed at were clean, comfortable and the food was fine. Our driver, Don, was excellent. He drove the tour bus expertly, safely and was very informative and funny as we toured Ireland. We enjoyed our small group.

November 2024 • Ancient Ireland and Scotland Tour
I recently (Oct 2024) went on a My Ireland 14 day Tour. I have never used a tour company in my travels before. I can not recommend them enough. Our tour guide Damian had a plethora of knowledge of Scotland and Ireland. I didn’t know anyone could be that informed and still have a great sense of humor. I don’t think there was a question out there that he was stumped by. His grand stories were just icing on the cake. He made the trip so memorable for the entire coach load of us. I made such great memories and friendships that I hope last a lifetime. All I can say is if you are on the fence about this company or this trip you will not be disappointed. A million thanks for making my vacation a complete success. Cheers!

My husband and I went on the Ancient Ireland and Scotland Tour in September 2024. We had been dreaming about going on such a trip for many years and after the recommendation from a friend, decided to book our trip with My Ireland Tour. We had the most fabulous time! The trip was better than I ever imagined it would be. Two months later, I'm still reminiscing and smiling about the memories. Highly recommended! Damian was our tour guide and he was amazing. He took great care of us all, assuring we got everywhere safely. When we had van trouble (unforeseen things happen), he was right on it getting us another van and making sure we were well compensated for some missed events. Damian was a wealth of information, entertaining us with all his regional knowledge on a variety of topics. In addition to Damian, local guides would join us in the different cities to give us more specific history. All of the hotels were very nice. The featured dinners were exceptional. I loved the small group size as it allowed us to really get to know our fellow travelers.

Wonderful Tour! From start to finish. Hotels were very nice. The food at all of hotels was very good with a variety to choose from for breakfast and dinner. Our tour director Aemon Btoderick was exceptional. He was never at a loss of words for the countryside and history. He explained all of the sites we were stopping at and pointed out the sites along the way. The last night at the Merry Plowboy Inn, was a great ending to the trip. Just an exceptional time.

My friend and I recently did the 8 day Iconic Ireland tour with the exceptional Harry as our Driver and Tour operator. Harry imparted so much history as well as broadening our Irish music repertoire. We couldn’t fault the trip. Limiting passenger numbers so we all had a double seats, two night stops, most meals and additional tours included and accomodation that didn’t disappoint. All in all it was a great experience and it’s a big recommendation from us.

Had a wonderful time on our two week vacation to Scotland and Ireland. My Ireland Tours was great in the itinerary and our tour guide Damian made the whole experience that much more special.

The tour was wonderful. It exceeded our expectations. Our coach driver John was very informative and kept things moving along Ireland a beautiful place to see

Really enjoyed my seven night tour of Ireland. Our guide harry was funny and incredibly knowledgeable. Two things that really stood out to me was that were very few extra costs for additional activities or nights (compared to a cruise for example where almost everything you want to do costs extra). I also liked that we spent two nights in she same hotel. It was easier to settle in that way and not be constantly unpacking and then repacking every morning.

Ireland is a beautiful country filled with history and colorful people. Our guide, John Mulryan was a fount of information and anecdotes. He made the tour truly enjoyable. We saw all the highlights and the hotels were comfortable and food was good. Thank you to My Ireland Tour for a wonderful time.

As the only Brits on the tour, and quite possibly the eldest we were very happy with the mix of people on this trip, all otherwise from the good old USA, a pleasant bunch indeed and a fine time was had by all. Everything was tickittyboo, organisation, fine hotels, good food, great sightseeing, not possible to criticise a thing. And the icing on the cake? Tom Lavin, our driver and guide, exceptional. He worked so hard to ensure all of us enjoyed ourselves, and I think it's fair to say he succeeded admirably. Ireland is beautiful, take a trip!

I recently returned from the 8 day Iconic Scenes tour of Ireland with My Ireland Tour, and I am very pleased to recommend the company. The communication and level of detail from the office was great, and I felt well prepared for the tour. Our driver, Harry, was a true gem! He filled our days with history, information about our tour stops, music, and a little blarney thrown in for good measure. I mentioned at our welcome that my family has a special connection to one of the villages we passed through, and Harry remembered that and gave me a front row seat to take it all in. If you are considering a bus tour - look no further. My Ireland Tour is terrific!

Our journey to Ireland was long awaited with much anticipation. That said, it was exceeded way beyond our hopes and dreams. We saw so much of the island, got to experience the people, the food, the culture, meet and make new friends. Our tour guide Tom was top-notch! I would give it 10 stars but 5 was the highest option
Peter Markvoort
November 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
I took the tour as a solo male Canadian traveller in my 30’s. From the booking with Shannon (and re-booking, and re-booking!), to Harry the driver, to my new Aussie and American friends: the trip was a blast.The hotels were top notch “4-star” All boutique, and all very authentic. I went in Autumn, which is a beautiful time to visit Ireland. Halloween in Dublin was so much fun. The only thing I would change was that even though dinner is included, I wish I went out into the towns a few nights instead (as the dinners are primarily at the hotels). And I wish I took a longer trip (mine was 8 days) or that i added more days in Dublin at the end, as 2 days was not enough time to see it all. If you are researching 'Ireland Tours' you should just book with My Ireland Tours now. I can promise you they are THE BEST. And when you pass other tour busses that are massive and to their max capacity of occupants. You will be really happy for the open seat next to you. In my case i tool the back three seats and the tour group referred to it as the 'Pete Suite'. At 6’3 I was VERY happy to have the space.

Harry Fisher was our phenomenal guide and driver. Behind the scenes in Cork were Shannon, Keith and Shauni. They answered my questions very quickly and thoroughly! The tour was very well organized and Harry was so knowledgeable, knew the Irish history so well and was so Irish! The hotels were grand and Harry made sure I received the handicap rooms which I had not even thought of my needing such as my need was quite new for me. We saw iconic sights and Harry kept us entertained with stories, Ireland's history, (yes we did know that because you told us) Cromwell's deeds and wonderful Irish music We highly recommend My Irish Tours and ask for Harry. You'll not be disappointed!

November 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
If you are considering a trip to any of the locations that My Ireland Tours covers, don't hesitate! Just pick your tour and dates, and book your trip! Communication was excellent and very easy. We took the 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. The price and itinerary were excellent! Hotels were all very good! Three of our group of 5 had been to Ireland multiple times, but were still very enthusiastic about many of the stops that were unique. One of the true highlights was the excellent tour guide, Tony McGoey. We kept us entertained with information about the places that we visited, but more than that, he was a fountain of knowledge about the history of Ireland. His lessons added so much depth to the places that we saw, and to our overall appreciation of Ireland and the Irish people. He also has an amazing singing voice and entertained us with songs, as well as with his wicked sense of humor. The bus was extremely comfortable and roomy. We were able to cover so much more in one trip than we could have if we arranged our own itinerary. Tony is also an amazing driver! We were in awe of his capabilities!
Ernie Davis
November 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
We booked our trip after reading the great reviews. Keith handled all of our paperwork and kept us informed. He was fantastic. Right before our trip we had an itinerary which was so full, lol. When we arrived in Ireland we met our guide, Harry. He was the best. We can't say enough about this wonderful man. Harry was polite and very knowledgeable. He kept everything running smoothly. We stayed in 4 different hotels that were top notch. We saw everything we wanted to see. Harry provided information, history, and fun. The sights were amazing and the food was terrific. Ireland is a beautiful country and the My Ireland Tours was the best touring company!

October 2024 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
I did the 14-day Iconic Ireland tour in October. I wrote this poem to say thanks to our driver, PHILIP, for making it such a wonderful trip. Pubs there were plenty, for a Guinness or two. Giant’s steps, windy cliffs, and castles to view. History of Ireland your knowledge is vast. You told interesting stories of its troubled past. Ireland is pretty, it’s lush, and it’s green. Forty shades, I believe, are there to be seen. Lounging comfortably there, at the front of the bus, Sean the sheep and his family travelled with us. I’d like to say thank you for your driving prowess, for your friendly demeanour, for relieving my stress. Plenty of memories I’ll be taking back home. Bogs, castles, and churches, and kissing a stone!

October 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
An incredible 8 day, truly Iconic Ireland tour (early Oct. '24). My husband & I didn't know what to expect as this was our first bus tour vacation. It exceeded our expectations! Everything about this trip was seamless. From the beginnings working with Shannon on pre- trip preparations then the trip itself spending with our driver/guide, John Mulryan! We didn't have to think about where to go, what to do, where to eat or stay as it was all planned. John was an excellent driver/guide in every sense! His knowledge and insight of the land was remarkable! His expertise on navigating the very narrow roads were a welcomed relief! He made the road trip fun as he entertained 26 passengers with his knowledge, wit & sense of humor. He pointed out landmarks as we drove by with history lessons in between. We never realized the importance of having your guide be a local of the land. To us it made a 100% difference as John was able to share their education system, healthcare, customs, superstitions, how to say good morning Mr. Madpie in Irish which our group didn't excel at etc. He answered our questions and we appreciated it all! The 4 different hotels were each unique. We were glad we brought our swimming suits as we enjoyed the Dunboyne spa. One hotel had a pool and jacuzzi for night time relaxing. Killarney was a favorite as the hotel was on a main street with many pubs and shops which we were able to explore! John truly was extraordinary and endearing! To see this beautiful county with all its gorgeous scenery from the road and through the planned stops made our 1st time trip to Ireland memorable! Lastly, we appreciated all the stops along the way for bathroom, food and history lessons! Thank you My Ireland Tours!

October 2024 • Deluxe Castles Tour
We recently returned from our Deluxe Castle Tour and we had a fantastic time. The accommodation's and meals were 5 star all the way. Our driver/tour guide Cathal provided the history of every stop on the tour, he kept us on time and safe on the roads. Podrick stepped in for our drive around the Ring of Kerry and handled the bus on those winding roads like a boss. The schedule of the tour was very well paced without being frantic as I looked for a tour that did not change hotels every day. Highly recommend My Ireland Tours.

October 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
Simply fantastic! We have used other tour companies, but felt the local angle of My Ireland Tours was really compelling. We were right. This trip, and My Ireland Tour, is at the top of our all time favorites list! Thank you to Pat and the entire team for a fantastic trip.

October 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
What can I possibly say after Wow! My 10 Day Iconic Ireland Tour was perfect from start to finish...so organized and professional yet relaxed and fun. Tony, our driver, was an incredible guide sharing his historical knowledge and love of this magnificent and beautiful country. He also shared his fondness of Irish music and by the way, he has a wonderful voice! This was a once in a lifetime experience that I will always treasure.

We had a wonderful time on The Deluxe Castle Tour. The itinerary was excellent, the accommodations beautiful, and the food was delicious. Our tour guide Cathal Clarke was very professional and knowledgeable. He did a great job of educating us on Ireland's history. He has a great sense of humor and is a great driver too! We had ample time at the different venues. The weather was great most of the time and the scenery was outstanding. We enjoyed our fellow travelers on our tour and we have wonderful memories of our time spent together. I already want to go back! IRELAND IS BEAUTIFUL. I highly recommend My Ireland Tour.

October 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
Our 10-day tour of Ireland was simply fantastic, thanks to our fabulous driver/guide Tony. He brought Ireland and its often complicated history to life for us in such a way as to make each stop even more meaningful. In addition to his narration, he shared Irish music with us (he has a wonderful voice!) and prepared us for our final night’s visit to the Merry Ploughboys - no mistakes in clapping from our two tables. Our group - consisting of all age groups - was congenial and enjoyed sharing with each other during dinner each night. It was a well planned and beautifully executed tour. Thanks again Tony and My Ireland Tour!

October 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
This was my first visit to the beautiful country of Ireland and I am so glad it was with My Ireland Tour. My traveling party ran into some issues and we almost had to cancel our trip, but Ms, Shannon who helped us with our reservations was extremely kind and worked with us to make our visit possible. Communications with her through emails were always promptly responded to with a very professional, yet personal feel which in itself gave me confidence that selecting My Ireland Tour among all other companies was the absolute right choice. Upon arrival, we were met by our tour guide/driver Mr. Tony McGoey and as soon as we met and shook hands, I immediately knew we were going to be well taken care of. The 10 days we spent in Ireland from start to end was magical. Every single day, we were presented with new experiences and adventures. The itinerary MIT had put together was perfect and I cannot not think of any way the tour could be improved. The bus we traveled in was very comfortable and offered excellent views of this beautiful country. Tony was exceptional in describing the numerous landmarks we came across, historical facts, insight into current conditions - all with his own personal knack of including things that made the whole group burst out laughing many times. He was amazing. Thank you, MIT, for showing and introducing us your beautiful Emerald Isle. This trip will forever hold a place in my Top 3 travel adventures, thanks to you. My heartfelt appreciation.

I have not been a big fan of bus tours in the past, but if My Ireland Tour operated them all, I would stand corrected. I thought from start to finish that service, itinerary, and our tour guide/driver were exceptional. Tony McGoey is the best. At the end of our tour, I felt that I was leaving a friend. Well done!

Just got home last week from the 10 day Deluxe Castle Tour. Can't say enough good things about this! Everything was so easy and well planned. But most importantly I can't praise our tour guide Cathal Clarke enough. He was incredibly knowledgeable and gave us historical insight throughout the tour. But he was also really funny and it just pushed the experience over the top. Didn't want it to end! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

October 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
We just returned from our 10 day Ireland tour and my gf and I cannot thoroughly express about how fabulous it was. Our driver and guide Tony McG was top notch. He was super friendly, had vast present and historical knowledge to share with us and most importantly, he really enjoyed giving a background of Ireland, all the while, reminding us of how the Irish influence lives on . All of our stops were very, very interesting. The hotels and the food was fabulous. The service we received at all of our stops with the tour guides and Hotel staff was excellent. I cannot say enough on how highly we recommend this company. btw, they only allow 26 guests on any given tour which really gives a personal touch and allows all the guests to also get to know each other (or not). If you’re going to go to Ireland and take a tour, this is the one is for you.

The deluxe-irish castle tour exceeded all my expectations. I could not have been more pleased with the entire tour. First, our guide Cathel Clark was delightful and very informative. The 2 meals a day was a great addition to the package. The places we saw will be memories we'll have forever but the accommodations were splendid! I loved the castles and Abbeys and each place we stayed was better than the other. Thank you for a great vacation! We loved it!

We just completed the two week bus trip to see everything there was to see in Ireland. Thanks to our guide, Don, we came away with a better understanding of Ireland and its beautiful country. Our little group from across the world saw the most gorgeous country from castles to scenery that can only be described as God’s gift. We will definitely use this My Ireland Tours again.

This was our first time on a tour like this and we had a wonderful time. Our guide Damian was a fount of knowledge, sharing information not only about the places we were going to visit but also anything else we saw as we were traveling on the road. In between that he kept us entertained with stories, songs and answering our random questions about culture or something we saw along the road. My Ireland Tours is a fantastic company to deal with, Shannon always responded to our questions very quickly. The hotels were beautiful and the food was very good. Everything was so easy, all the details were taken care of. Damian and the other city guides who joined us on the tour were very informative. We all especially enjoyed meeting Pat in Dublin who escorted us to the Irish Immigration Museum and Christ Church Cathedral.

Absolutely, fantastic tour. This was the first time my partner and I traveled with a tour bus company and we loved it. Our driver, Tony, was fun, knowledgeable, and had great recommendations for free time in the cities. Highly recommend this tour if you’re looking to hit common and uncommon tourist attractions and have everything setup for you. You’ll see some beautiful places!

We have been back home for a week now from our 14 day Scotland/ Ireland trip. Everyone that I talk to ask me what was my favorite part of the trip. I cannot answer that because we seen so many things and learned so much from our driver/ tour guide Paddy! It truly was the trip of my lifetime. Thank you so much!

If I could give 100 stars I still it wouldn't be enough so show how amazing Martin Lynch was!! My husband and I joined his Rugby Family on Tour of Ireland this October 2024 and right from the moment we stepped out of the Dublin Airport we knew it would be a one of a kind experience. Our Tour Guide Jake brought us to Martin Lynch and his Mega BUS! The rest is history! Thank you to Martin for not only taking care of us but for getting us all over Ireland safely! I will 100% reach out for any future personal or business trips in the Ireland, UK area!! Choose Martin Lynch, you can thank me later!!!

We were on the tour of Ireland that finished Oct.16th.Our tour guide was Tom Lavin. We had a great time throughout the entire tour. Tom was very knowledgeable about the history and current events of Ireland.He was professional and attentive to all our needs.Each castle or site we visited was so interesting and Tom knew all about it. The hotels were all very attractive and well appointed, meals were very good and flavorful. A wonderful showing of your beautiful country.

I decided to join solo the 8 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland 2024. I was quite anxious as this was my first ever trip alone. However, it was the best decision I have ever made. The organization of the whole trip, from my arrival at the hotel on day 1 until I was dropped off at the airport 8 days later, was immaculate. Our tour guide was Harry Fisher who is absolutely brilliant. Extremely knowledgeable, attending to the groups needs. Thank you for everything, Harry! I am still considering moving to Ireland. :)

October 2024 • 8 Day Iconic Scenes
Any minor inconveniences are more than made up by the fantastic 8 Day Iconic Ireland Tour memories. Much appreciation to Harry Fisher, our incredible tour guide, providing context and understanding to Irish history, politics, religion, etc., often with wit and passion. Each day had several unique visits to important and wonderful sites in the republic. So the week’s pace is a fast one - relieved by the bi-daily big travelling day, and the two dozen persons’ ability to spread on the large coach. Gradually we became closer, and many friendship's acquired. Food was fabulous at various stops but pig and cow heavy, with fish and chicken choices. Vegetarians, had options. Vegans had difficulty being accommodated. One’s exercise becomes the walks, or push ups, as the hotels had limited or no exercise facilities. A minor quibble, as the My Ireland tour provided tremendous value - from the smooth pick up in Dublin, quick communication beforehand (ironing out minor changes), to the choice sites of this beautiful country.

My cousins and I were on the 8 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland 2024. The organization of the whole trip, from arrival at the airport with transport to Dunboyne Castle Hotel until we were returned to the airport 8 days later, was fabulous. Our guide was Harry Fisher. He was absolutely brilliant and can really drive a bus! He even sings pretty well! Be sure to take advantage of the SPA at Dunboyne Castle on day 1! I am seriously considering moving to Ireland.

The 8 Day Iconic Scenes Trip is not to be missed. Couldn't have been happier with the destinations that are included, the hotels were excellent, and the food was outstanding. Special note that all our dietary restrictions were accommodated beyond our expectations. If you're lucky enough to get our tour guide, Harry Fisher, you will enjoy every minute. Thanks to Harry for showing us around this beautiful country and providing more Irish history than can possibly be retained. Highly recommend

October 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
As a solo traveller, this was a first, choosing this company, so ease of process gets a big tick. The website was easy to navigate, Keith was helpful and swift in response to any email and then there was Tom! I can see what others have written and I totally agree. It takes a particular type of person to drive a coach and on the way, talk about slices of history, heritage, culture, economics, politics, farming, the changing landscape of Ireland and in an inclusive way. Deep respect! With regards to the accommodation, the hotels were very good, each had their own character. The pacing was spot on in terms of long days , breaks , planning ahead etc. Also it was fine to join in or take a step away as I did on one day where I felt lazy and just wanted to explore. Highlights were the Cliffs of Moher, Irish National Stud, lunch at the farmhouse and Kylemore Abbey.

October 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
A truly unique experience. Spectacular country, friendly people, every day a different activity. Our guide and driver Mr. Harry Fisher made us all welcome with good humor, safe travels on tight roads, and insightful comments on this great, if often troubled, Ireland. My highlight? The Cliffs of Moher in 40 Mph winds!!

I cannot thank Kristel, Joe, and My Ireland Tour enough for such a spectacular trip. Everything was so seamless! I couldn’t have imagined our vacation being any more perfect! Before the trip Kristel worked closely with me to make sure we would experience all the places important to our family. My husband I and took his parents to Ireland to celebrate his father’s 70th birthday. He is very interested in his ancestry, including great-grandfather’s birthplace and his journey to America. In addition to what we requested, Kristel suggested wonderful sites that we would never have known about such as the Dunbrody Famine Ship which is a replica of one of the many ships the Irish used to escape The Great Famine. Kristel was also flexible and responsive when we decided to add my two brothers-in-law to the itinerary midway through the trip as a surprise. Our driver guide Joe was absolutely phenomenal. He became one of the family, and we were sad to say goodbye at the end of our trip. His wonderful sense of humor and incredible knowledge of all things Irish dazzled us for days. He was incredibly flexible and was brilliant in suggesting many out of the way spots that we loved. His passion for Ireland is evident in everything he does. I hope our paths cross again soon. I’m already itching to get back to Ireland. And when I do, I know I’ll plan my trip with Kristel and be sure to request Joe as our driver guide!

We are very satisfied and grateful with our overall vacation with My Ireland Tour, and recommend to all our friends and family who would consider going to Ireland to go with MIT.

My husband and I went on the the 10 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour in October 2024. Tom Lavin was our driver/guide. He was fun and interesting to listen to as he spoke of Ireland's history and present day Ireland as we traveled throughout the country. I can't say enough about his attention to detail and making sure that everything went smoothly throughout our trip. He made it easy for us. The places we stayed were very very nice as were our meals. We experienced so much in such a short time in Ireland, but never felt rushed. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tour to anyone thinking of an Ireland tour.

We just got back from our 14 day Scotland and Ireland Tour and I’m ready to go back. Paddy O’Farrell is the best guide- his attention to details and knowledge of both Scottish and Irish history, taking us to extra spots he thought we would like, and his sense of humor all made this tour unforgettable. We made some new friends, had EXCELLENT weather for almost the entire trip (so lucky in October!!), and brought back memories for a lifetime. We can’t recommend My Ireland Tour enough.

The hotels and the food was fabulous. The service we received at all of our stops with the tour guides and Hotel staff was excellent. I cannot say enough on how highly we recommend this company. If you’re going to go to Ireland and want to take a tour, This one is for you.

I researched tour providers carefully before choosing My Ireland Tour (MIT) as this was my first trip to Ireland. They presented as the best choice in terms of cost, length of tour, places visited, meals provided, group size, services and facilities. I was not disappointed. In fact, I was amazed at how well organized everything was and in particular with our guide Philip. He was extremely knowledgable when it came to Irish history and well able to answer all our questions. His extensive experience allowed him to suggest extra stops which made the tour excede my expectations. He even seranaded us with some beautiful Irish songs. No question that I'll look to MIT for my next tour. I'd give them 6 stars if I could. Excellent+ The Best!

We could not express our appreciation for our driver guide Joe enough. Not only was he our driver for our honeymoon, but became a friend. He is a kind, genuine soul with such a passion to the history and detail of ireland. He brought out the best of us right down to the singing sessions en route to the next adventure. We would recommend My Ireland Tour to anyone in a heartbeat. Thank you to Catriona for fullfilling our dreams and a special thank you to Joe for the magic moments. With much love from Canada

Ben and Debby Kahl October 2024 My husband and i just returned from out first trip to Ireland and we are still smiling! Tom Lavin was our guide and driver on the 10 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. We really can’t say enough about the tour and about Tom. He had impeccable attention to detail and was relaxed and friendly at the same time. Tom told us about the history and also shared information about present day Ireland as we traveled from one location to the next looking out at the incredibly beautiful countryside as we rode in comfort in the coach. The pacing of the itinerary was perfect. There was time on our own and guided time. The accommodations were wonderful and the food was excellent.

This was our first trip to Ireland and first time using a tour company. We loved everything! Ireland is gorgeous! The hotels were lovely and the food was delicious. We never felt rushed and were given plenty of time to spend at all our stops. Tom Lavin our tour guide/driver is the kindest human you could meet. Everyone on our tour adored him. He is very knowledgeable, funny, and generous. He made our time in Ireland even more special. Thank you Tom

He Was friendly, Had vast historical knowledge to share with us and most importantly, you knew he really enjoyed his job. All of our stops were very, very interesting. The hotels and the food was fabulous. The service we received at all of our stops with the tour guides and Hotel staff was excellent. I cannot say enough on how highly we recommend this company.

We had the most amazing trip. Our driver Dan Gallagher was wonderful. When we visit Ireland again we will ask for him to be our guide again. Working with Kristel on arrangements was very easy. She was great to work with as well. The tour company was professional and worked with the best hotels and businesses in Ireland. This was a family trip and we were able to do a private tour in a small bus, it was great. Thanks so much to everyone involved with our trip. The Facer Family

My Fiance & I went on the 8 day Iconic Ireland Tour and it was absolutely Fantastic Our guide, the Amazing Harry Fisher, was Phenomenal in every aspect of our journey, whether it was history, folklore or general knowledge, the man knew all. If you want to visit Ireland and get your moneys worth, go with My Ireland Tour, you get the sites, the culture, the history even when you're on the road. It's an adventure worth taking

We had a fabulous time on the Deluxe Castle Tour in September. I really appreciated how much of the country we were able to see and our tour guide Garey was nothing but pleasant and professional. His ability to navigate the roads was VERY impressive. Some of our accommodations were better than others. The first hotel in Dunboyne left something to be desired. One of my favorites was in Killarney as not only was it beautiful and the food AMAZING, but you could also walk into town. I thought the food was mostly very good but after a few days the same meat and potatoes options got a little tiring. The pace of everything was very comfortable. Not too much but enough to be interesting. There were a couple surprise stops along the way that were very special! The crystal and chocolate factories we went to were off the beaten path and super enjoyable. This tour is accessible and I think can be enjoyed by folks of all ages. Such a great value for the price!

My husband and I went on the Irish Castle Tour with Tom Lavin (9/21-10/1). We had a wonderful experience! Tom really cared about the passengers, striving to make everyone comfortable. He had an impressive knowledge of Irish history and culture, a great sense of humor, and excellent driving skills! We visited wonderful places and enjoyed excellent food. This was my husband’s 5th time in Ireland, my second, and our friends’ first, and all of us learned, enjoyed, and will remember our experience!

Outstanding in every way. Communications prior to the trip, quality of the guide/driver, accommodations, fellow tour travelers and daily itinerary were all more than expected. Our guide driver was Ben, a wonderful ambassador not only for My Ireland Tour organization but for Ireland itself.

We had a wonderful time during our tour of Scotland and Ireland. Our tour guide, Pat Prendergast, was excellent. Throughout the tour, he provided the history of both Scotland and Ireland and highlighted the importance of the places we visited. There were so many wonderful places to see during the tour. All of the hotels we stayed at were wonderful. Everything about the tour was so well organized.

October 2024 • 8 Day Iconic Scenes
Our 8-day tour of Ireland was as described, truly 'iconic'. From the well-designed programs to the fine hotel choices to the perfectly paced daily activities, this tour exceeded all our expectations. And at the heart of it was our driver and touring maestro, John Mulryan. His knowledge in so many areas of Irish culture, history, geography/geology (he never got 'bogged' down), myth, sport, etc., was impressively comprehensive. All delivered with trademark Irish wit. Thank you, Mr. Magpie!

What a wonderful tour! Our guides were all knowledgeable about Ireland’s history, political struggles, emigration, agriculture and culture. Our main guide, Don, added humor to our day. We were on a 14 day Ireland tour. I chose this tour because I wanted to see more of the smaller towns and the countryside, rather than the just the bigger cities. The tour did not disappoint! Ireland is beautiful! Thank you My Ireland Tours for a well organized, giving a variety of experiences, and fun tour!

We did the Ancient Ireland Mini-Group 2024 October 1-8. Cathal Clarke was our outstanding driver and guide. We had a total of 8 in our group, all experienced travelers and great company. The accommodations and arranged meals were top notch. Cathal went out of his way to assist and make sure we had the best experience possible. There were no complications and we enjoyed ourselves immensely. Highly recommend My Irish Tours.

Almost everything was perfect: We loved Ireland, we liked very much the hotels, our guide (John Patrick Mulryan) was of top quality both as a guide and as a driver and we loved the dinners together and the final show with Irish music and dancing. The ONLY NEGATIVE: Really tall people cannot fit in the bus. One of us is very tall (6'6' or 1.98m - for people that use the decimal system). The bus was really uncomfortable for him. My advise to tall people: Talk to My Ireland Tour about how they can make such a person more comfortable.

This was an outstanding adventure! It was grand in every way from the accommodations, meals, and lifetime, enhancing experiences. John, our tour guide and coach driver, was absolutely brilliant! I am so thankful for his kindness , insight, humor, and expertise…. This was the best time sighted by many in our group…. Fun and new friends will await you!

Our tour was 02-11OCT, it was fabulous! Our tour guide, Tony, was awesome! All details were taken care of and we had one of my party with broken toes and wearing a boot. Tony took the time to contact all our hotels to ensure she was as close as possible to elevators. I highly recommend this tour..and the things you learn while having fun definitely added to our trip.

October 2024 • no-id
My only comments would be in marketing the product as an 8 day ireland tour but the first day you arrive at the hotel with check in after 15.00 hrs which is in outer areas of Dublin. You are limited to the dining options of the hotel as there are no other options close by, the meals are at your own cost and the meet the group that night is for one hour. On the final day the departure was at 05.30 hrs in the morning to the airport. I may be wrong but to myself I see this as a 6 day tour where the 6 days were all excellent To my mind it would have been better to have the tour joining hotel in Dublin city where an early arrival period could be booked at this hotel or another close to it. My wife and I did arrive early with time being spent looking around Dublin and enjoying some of the various food outlets. This though at the cost of an expensive Taxi journey to the tour joining hotel on the outskirts of Dublin after the check in time of 15.00 hrs. as noted on the tour itinerary.

October 2024 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
We took the Iconic Ireland & Scotland tour, and I have to say it was fantastic … exceeded my expectations. We booked with Shannon and she will update you with e-mails, so don’t be afraid to ask her questions, but honestly, everything I needed was somewhere on the trip website. Pat, our driver made the entire trip a pleasure. He is a wealth of knowledge of both countries. If he drove other tours, I would sign up in a heartbeat (yes, he is that good). The trip itinerary was perfect. You will definitely see a lot here, plenty of beautiful countryside, castles, coastal views, cliffs, sheep farms, pubs, Irish music and dancing and shopping. Pat was so flexible giving our group options and an unplanned, surprise stop at St. Andrews golf course. Pat narrated the entire trip with wonderful history and humor, as well as a wee bit of Irish tunes. Everyone on our 26 - 26-passenger bus got along beautifully and mixed and mingled during tours and dinner. The food was delicious … buffet breakfasts and 3 course dinners. We exchanged US currency for Euros at a local bank before we left, but honestly, for shopping, just get a credit card that has zero transaction fees (Several in our group signed up for a Sapphire Chase card to use to book the trip for #1. Trip cancellation benefits and #2. No foreign transaction fees, (of course you will have the exchange rate of the day). Also, a few had a debit card with zero transaction fees, and Pat will direct you to ATMs. You will need a few Euros for a couple of the city tour guides, but you will want a very generous tip for Pat (Yes, he is that good). Thank you, Pat for a beautiful, memorable trip!

The tour of Ireland was very good, 24 people from Womanspace of Rockford, Illinois USA. All of the informative tours were well done. The hotels were fine, one exception. One hotel had tall bathtubs and the tour group was older, a little unsafe bathing. The other hotels were wonderful and interesting. The highlight of the tour was lunch as Ashford Castle in the George V room. The coach driver made the travel in the coach very special with Irish songs and stories along the way. The price was very competitive. The planning by My Irish Tours was most helpful and accommodating to our individual requests.

October 2024 • 8 Day Iconic Scenes
My daughter and I took the 8-day tour and thoroughly enjoyed it. I chose My Ireland Tours because of the 26 person limit. This number of people allows plenty of space on the bus to be comfortable as well as a small enough group to get to know everyone else. Our group ranged in age from 9 years to 77 and came from all over the US, including Hawaii, as well as Canada, and Austria. The booking was so easy, thanks to Keith. He answered all my questions and gave many helpful tips on traveling in Ireland. I especially appreciate his help and concern when I had to postpone our trip a year because of my daughter's health. Harry Fisher, our driver/guide made the has a wealth of knowledge of Irish history, folklore, and just plain blarney. He made the week educational in a fun way, adding in plenty of craic. He's also one of the best bus drivers I've ridden with in my life. All of the places we went were well worth the time. Generally there was about the right amount of time allotted for each place, except several of us wished we'd had a bit more time at EPIC. The hotels and restaurants were mostly excellent. The Ivy restaurant at the Dunboyne Castle Hotel was especially attentive to my daughter's dietary restrictions. Unfortunately, the Samuel in Dublin was not. All in all, I would recommend My Ireland Tours as a great company to see Ireland with and the 8-day tour as a good basic introduction to Ireland.

I did the Deluxe Irish Castle tour Sep. 29-Oct 8, 2024. It was fantastic! 5-Star accommodations, detailed historical stories and a lot of laughter & fun. Our driver & guide, Ben Sullivan who told us stories of Ireland that he grew up hearing, gave us fun Irish sayings but most of all, had us all laughing & singing along with him as he guided us through Ireland! Best tour guy EVER…he also has a good singing voice!

Just returned from 14 Day Iconic Ireland tour. This was a small group tour that was excellent in every way—hotels were generally clean, had very efficient check in processes, friendly staff and good food. Each accommodated us well with no major problems. Eamon Broderick our MyIrelandTour guide and bus driver was terrific—he knows his country well, understood what topics might interest the diverse crowd on the tour and was very entertaining. We were very happy that he could talk and drive well at the same time!! MyIrelandTours attracted a great mix of people from many countries; everyone was an experienced traveler and all were kind and very good sports— for a group of strangers meeting and traveling together in a coach for 2weeks, in foul and fair weather. All in all, a very memorable trip!

October 2024 • Iconic Britain and Ireland Tour
My Ireland Tour far exceeded our expectations. We had not gone on a bus tour before so were not sure what to expect. Our guide Rosemary was exceptional, she made us feel so taken care of each step of the way. We saw so much and can't believe all the places and beautiful countryside we experienced. The hotels were more than comfortable and in the city centers for walkable excursions on our own after dinner. Our bus driver Tommy was also exceptional and gave us peace of mind to sit back and relax and enjoy all the sites. We were on the 18 day Icon tour of England, Scotland and Ireland and I can't even begin to list all the places and things we got to see. Even the small stops were interesting. I can't recommend this tour enough!

We just finished our 13 night Iconic Scotland & Ireland Tour on 9/27/24. Our contact with Shannon at My Ireland Tour from beginning to end was excellent. She provided all of the information requested in a very timely manner! Our driver/guide, Paddy O Farrell, was absolutely the best tour guide that we have ever experienced! His knowledge, wit & humor contributed to a very enjoyable tour. Paddy's suggestions for 'extra points of interest' was very much appreciated especially the Celtic Steps show in Killarney! We would highly recommend this tour & hope you are fortunate enough to get Paddy O Farrell as your driver guide!

We just returned from the Ireland 8 day iconic tour and it was fabulous! Prior to the trip, Shannon was wonderful, answering all of our many questions so that we were fully prepared for the trip. Our driver/guide, Harry Fisher took care of us throughout the entire trip, often anticipating our needs. He provided us so much history of Ireland and his love of Ireland was contagious. He made the trip fun and entertaining and was an excellent driver too (still not sure how he so masterfully maneuvered all those tight spots)! He really made the trip amazing! We had 25 people in our group and everyone got along well. We saw wonderful sites; Ireland is a beautiful country. The tour was a wonderful mix of country (including sheep), castles, gardens, chocolate, food, pubs, history and entertainment. There were some surprises along the way, which was especially fun. I highly recommend this tour group! Thank you Shannon and Harry!

Almost done our tour of Scotland and Ireland and it has been absolutely fantastic. Our driver/guide is Pat and he is the best of the best. Pat is full of knowledge and tips for us to get the most out of our trip. We expected it to be a great trip but it has been much more than that! My only wish is that Pat did other trips as well as this one! If he did we would be signing up on the spot! THANK YOU SO MUCH PAT FOR A FANTASTIC TRIP!

October 2024 • 8 Day Iconic Scenes
I returned from the 8-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour a little over a month ago and still can't stop thinking about it! First and foremost, our guide, Harry Fisher, was incredible! So funny, so knowledgeable, very kind, and an excellent driver to boot. He was a huge part of what made the trip so special. The itinerary was nicely paced, so even on what Harry called 'moving days' when we were trekking across the country it never seemed like we were too rushed or had an overly exhausting day. You get to see some really great highlights of Ireland as well as some fun little surprises that aren't on the stated itinerary. There really isn't a dull moment or a sight that isn't worth seeing. I also appreciated that there was some free time in each city to explore. I will say that I personally felt I needed at LEAST another day or two in Dublin! It doesn't look like the longer Iconic Scenes tours include more Dublin time, so if you have the means, I would recommend either coming a day or two early or extending your stay a bit to get to see more of the city. The hotels for the most part are all very comfortable with lovely staff. There was an issue with an odd smell at the last hotel that I reached out to My Ireland Tour directly about - they got back to me very quickly and assured me they'd speak with their contacts at the hotel about it, so I hope it will be resolved soon. All the breakfasts and dinners at the hotels were delicious. The 2 included lunches at Mikey Ryan's and The Blind Piper were also amazing! The size of the tour group was also a huge plus - we had 26 total, which is their maximum, and I can't imagine being in a larger group than that. It was small enough to get to know people and it ended up feeling like a cozy little bunch. I was a bit nervous joining as a solo traveller, but I would highly recommend the experience to anyone who wants to travel on their own but still wants to meet fun people! All in all, I can't praise My Ireland Tour highly enough. From first booking the trip to the final day, it was a lovely experience. I hope to get to join them on another tour (with friends and family this time) sometime very soon!

October 2024 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
Just finished the 14 day Scotland/Ireland tour. Our driver/tour guide John Dennany was funny, kind, full of facts and history and made our trip amazing. He stopped at places not on Itinerary that he thought we would enjoy ( and he was right) he made pit stops when necessary. The Hotels and Castles were beautiful. The food amazing and our group of 26 melded like we had known each other for years!! Were there some long days on the bus? Yes, but how do you see 2 countries in 2 weeks? It was worth it and with wifi on the bus you have all you need! For those who want to relax and see the unforgettable countryside and cities of Scotland and Ireland have all the arrangements made and have the best input from a guide who loves his country My Ireland tours cannot be beat!

We would recommend My Ireland Tour company to anyone.

My Wife and I just completed the 14 day Iconic scenes of Ireland tour and we could not be more satisfied. Our guide/driver was Eamonn Broderick and he was knowledgeable, helpful, engaging and humorous..( and a very good driver). The tour was comprehensive and covered a great deal of ground. (Ringing the entire Island). Hotels were all comfortable and clean, food was above average and quite often superb. All in all, a great experience.

He was very interesting to listen to and very informative. He went out of his way to help if we had any problems at all. We would definitely recommend this tour for anyone interested in going on a trip to Ireland. Jim and Lori Conklin
Kyle Spangenberger
October 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
I haven't done tours like this before so I wasn't sure how it would go. But it was amazing! The driver (Don) was very reachable and responsive, he did a great job informing us of cool facts along the way about the country in general, as well as the actual attractions/sites we were going to. I'm really glad I booked the tour because driving in some parts of the country looked harrowing. Not having to worry about booking hotels, planning most meals, or planning activities and organizing tickets to them took a lot of stress out of the trip. We had extra time each day before and after dinner to explore the areas as well, with plenty of suggestions of where to go and what to do. I think the itinerary was a good mix of the heavy hitters of tourist stuff as well as interesting smaller stops like the Celtic Crystal shop where we watched an amazing artisan cut crystal by hand with wonderful skill. The only con I would have to say is that sometimes we didn't get to stay as long at some of the sites as I would have liked. We often got back to the hotel pretty early so we had enough time to 'freshen up' before dinner. I get why they do that, but I personally would trade that time to stay a bit longer at the attractions. There was a lot of driving time as well, but I don't count that against them, since we had to cover a lot of ground to fit everything in the time allotted, plus it gave me time to take quick naps as needed. Also, the fact that they basically only book enough seats so that only half of the bus is full is amazing, you're not packed in and you get your own space to be comfortable. That made the travel on the bus much more pleasant. This experience has definitely changed my outlook on guided tours, and now I would highly recommend them as a good introduction to a country, and would highly recommend My Ireland Tour specifically.

We (group of 8) recently did the Ireland Castles 10 day tour with our drive/guide Tom and it was fabulous. Beautiful places to stay, all with their own charm, in fantastic locations. Saw all the sights around Ireland with Derry (and the local guide 'LegendJerry'), the Cliffs of Moher (shockingly we had good weather) and sheep herding demonstrations as highlights. Bus was very comfortable and the driving durations were not long with ample restroom stops. Tom kept up a very interesting running commentary as well. Definitely recommend.

This was an excellent tour experience and I highly recommend it. I travel a lot and was so impressed and I wish this company ran tours all over the world! We did the iconic 8 day Ireland tour and I was continually delighted with every stop and event. From the very beginning of the booking process, this company has been very responsive. Shannon at the tour office was so helpful and kind. Our driver/guide, Harry, was almost too incredible to be true. He was so knowledgeable and made sure that we truly understood Irish history and how all the pieces fit together. He was attentive, funny and so friendly and one of the best guides I’ve ever experienced. To quote Harry 'enjoy a bit of craic!'

My husband and I recently took the 6-day Iconic Tour of Ireland in September with MyIrelandTour. It was an amazing trip! Our tour guide/driver, Seamus Keough, was very pleasant and knowledgeable. He did a fantastic job driving in tight spots, keeping us on schedule, and providing lots of suggestions on places to dine/shop. For me personally, the highlights of the trip were Cliffs of Mohr, Galway Cathedral, and Blarney Castle. I would love to go back someday and explore places we haven't seen yet. I would definitely use MyIrelandTour again and highly recommend it to anyone looking to take a trip to Ireland!

October 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
Our 10-Day Iconic tour May 18th 2022 was our 1st group tour we have taken as we have always traveled independently. I can not say enough about our tour guide and driver, Harry Fisher. He was very knowledgeable and very attentive, as well as his sense of humor. The hotels were 4 star. I must say that the dinners at each of the restaurants were all very similar, so was not a big fan of that. Harry was able to get us into Guinness right away when the line was around the block. He took great care in making sure each of us were taken care of and was always available. It was nice that we had a small group of 19 and all had good seating on the bus. We would highly recommend this trip to others that want to see Ireland for the 1st time and have a tour with a personal touch. Thank you for making our 25th wedding anniversary memorable.

My husband & I did the Historic Irish Castle Tour and our excellent & outstanding guide was Sean O’Sullivan! Couldn’t have had a better person for our first time in Ireland. Very organized & knowledgeable with any questions we had. I wish we would have booked a couple of days longer, but will the next time we come. Sean always made sure our luggage was picked up & brought to the rooms of every place we stayed. Thank you Sean, can’t say enough of how great you were. We were also blessed with a great group of people where we all had enjoyable times at meals and our nightly rounds of card playing. Great experience & would definitely use My Ireland Tour again!!

Incredible tour! We were fortunate to have one of the most interesting and knowledgeable guides EVER! Don O'Donoghue was like an Irish Encyclopedia. His finesse at solemnly narrating 'the troubles' experienced in Ireland were a touching reminder of all that the Irish have endured. His love and pride for his Country and Countrymen were evident in all of his tales. Many of those tales were laced with his grand, wicked Irish humor which kept us wanting more! I will treasure this experience for many years to come.

Well organised tour company providing amazing insights to a beautiful country. Our guide, Don O’Donoghue looked after us all so well and his knowledge of Ireland and its history is second to none.

Would definitely use My Ireland Tour again and recommend them to anyone contemplating Ireland for their next holiday.

Hands down one of the best travel tours I’ve been on. Our guide Sean was so friendly and knowledgeable. Our flight was cancelled and we arrived a day late, but Sean went out of his way to come back to the airport and get us so we wouldn’t miss more of the tour than we needed to. Looking forward to booking with My Ireland Tours next year!

Catriona in the office of My Ireland Tours helped me plan and book a 16-day trip around the whole of the Irish isle that turned out wonderfully. Her choice of hotels and attractions were spot on, as was the pace of the tour. Plus, the very professional and fun Driver-Guide she provided, Ger Murphy, made our travel so much easier and enjoyable. We are two well-traveled couples in our mid-seventies who agree this was among our best trips ever. Ireland is breathtaking with warm and friendly folk, and My Ireland Tours is the travel agency to use if you're headed there.

My husband and I just returned from the 7 day Historic Irish Castle Tour. What a great time we had! Our tour guide and driver Davey Thompson was such a wonderful person. Always had a smile and was a wealth of knowledge. His driving skills through some of the smallest roadways was amazing. The tour was everything we expected and more. Our tour was a little smaller than expected - only 17 people, but what a group! We all had a great time and really got to know one another. The castles were so beautiful and the meals were wholesome and delicious. Never went hungry. The days were busy and chocked full of things to do and see. The pace of the day while going from one sight to another was well timed with built in comfort breaks and meals. Never felt rushed, but Davey kept us on schedule. My Ireland Tours was an excellent company to work with. Shauni answered all our pre-travel questions promptly. Everything went smoothly from start to finish. Our only concern before going on the tour was regarding air travel and our concern that our flight might be delayed or cancelled. We accommodated for that by going to Ireland 3 days earlier (on our own) which also allowed us to adjust to the time difference before the tour began. Everything worked out perfectly!

Our 'My Ireland Tour' was fantastic! We had a small private group - 6 women including mom, sisters & cousins. I worked with the planner to create a custom tour that included all our key destinations in the time-period we wanted. We met our driver and guide in Dublin, Dave, and he was wonderful. He brought us everywhere, provided historical information and stories of the past. It was a magical time! I would use them again in a heartbeat. We all highly recommend.

Catriona listened to our wishes, made some adjustments and delivered two weeks of unforgettable experiences. Brian was our driver/ guide and by the end, a friend. The hotels were wonderful. Five nights in Scotland, seven in Ireland. Didn't want it to end. Thanks to Catriona and Brian our group of four had a perfect two week holiday!

So knowledgeable and pleasant and always about his group ! He took very good care of us all the time ! I highly recommend Myireland tours to anyone thinking about seeing Ireland . Most of the hotels were 4* plus and accommodating ! If you want to learn about Ireland’s history and see all the highlights of Ireland this tour is for you !

The tour was wonderful…beautiful accommodations, excellent tour sites, and nice coach. Ben, our driver, was pleasant. We enjoyed his singing. However, we did NOT appreciate his language and off-color jokes. I am not accustomed to hearing the “F” word and “Jesus Christ” on a regular basis. I find it offensive, as did my family. Off-color jokes are not funny to me. I do not socialize by choice with people who use such language; however, in this instance, I actually paid good money to be subjected to such undesirable conversation. Despite this drawback, our tour group was delightful, and Ireland was stunning!

We just completed the 2 week bus tour of Scotland and Ireland with My Ireland Tours and it was fabulous. Our driver, Paddy, was awesome and the tour was very well designed to provid a great visit of each area we saw. I spoke with non-My Ireland tour folks at places we stopped and they had no idea of many of the things w had done. Just a great trip!

My family just returned from a fantastic trip! We would highly recommend using My Ireland Tour for trip planning. They were able to assist us with planning a private tour for our group of ten. Kristel was great working with us to get our tour schedule perfect! During our nine days we saw all the highlights of Ireland and stayed in beautiful 4-star hotels. Our driver (Patrick) was very knowledge and informative along the way.

Catriona planned a beautiful two week tour of Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Ireland for our party of four. The accommodations were all lovely. Brian Kelly was our extraordinary, knowledgable, personable driver. (He is a great singer, too.) A walking tour of Edinburgh with Joe Harrower is an absolute must. The Loch Ness, the Isle of Skye, St. Andrew’s were just some of the highlights. The ferry ride to Belfast was a unique experience for us. The tour with Colleen in Derry was fascinating and informative, as well. Brian entertained us throughout Ireland. It was a trip of a lifetime for us.

We just returned from a 10 day 'Deluxe Castle Tour' with My Ireland Tour that was absolutely fantastic in every way! Right from the start, in the planning stage, Keith was excellent to deal with. Very responsive and provided much helpful, detailed information. Our driver/guide Sean was superb! He set a great tone for the entire trip, made us all feel like a family, and shared lots of history and information all along the way. We even had an extra stop or two, for which we were most appreciative, and still kept to the schedule. His knowledge and love of his home country shone through! All the local guides we had were also excellent. Accommodations were lovelier than we could have imagined . . . especially Lough Eske. Food was wonderful in all our lodgings. Our tour was so epic we wish we could turn around and do it all over again! Highly recommend My Ireland Tour.

We did a small group (6 people) 16 day tour of Scotland and Ireland. Accommodations booked by My Ireland Tours were really nice and some were spectacular. The itinerary was very full and we saw a lot more of both countries than we could have on our own. They are very flexible and easy to work with. Our driver Lorraine was great. Informative and flexible when we wanted to alter the itinerary slightly. She made getting around and getting into hotels a breeze. A really great experience

My husband and I just returned last week from the 14 day iconic Ireland tour lead by the incomparable Don O’Donoghue. The daily excursions were fun and informative, the pace was not rushed and the hotels were terrific. Our tour had 25 people and we couldn’t have asked for a better group. Ireland is a beautiful country with the most welcoming people and it made me very proud of my Irish heritage! We would definitely use this tour company again.
Elaine Barbour
September 2024 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
14 day Iconic Tour. Highly recommend this company. So hard to really trust reviews nowadays but I can tell you that this company deserves the 5 stars. If it was just based upon the hotels and meals provided, it'd give it 4 stars. It is the company's driver/guide Don O'Donoghue who made this trip for us. Excellent wit and very informative as to all things/places Irish! Still in awe as to how he maneuvered that large bus in and around such small spaces. He's a keeper guys! Loved it all!

September 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
My recent 10-day 'Iconic Scenes of Ireland' tour with My Ireland Tours was nothing short of extraordinary! From the moment I booked the trip, the entire experience was seamless. The in-house team was incredibly efficient and responsive, handling every aspect—from payment to travel arrangements and personal requirements—with professionalism and care. Travelling from the UK with a friend from the US, we chose this tour specifically for its diverse itinerary, which took us through some of Ireland’s most stunning landscapes. From the breathtaking and rugged beauty of Connemara to the dramatic seascapes of the Wild Atlantic Way and the lush, rolling countryside of the southern and central regions, we were treated to the full range of Ireland’s natural wonders. The tour wrapped up perfectly in vibrant Dublin, leaving us with lasting memories of this magical country. The accommodations were consistently excellent, offering comfort, quality, and top-tier service. Each morning began with a hearty hot Irish breakfast or a continental option, and dinner was a waistline expanding three-course affair with plenty of delicious choices. The tour also included lunch twice, which was a nice bonus! A special mention goes to our driver and guide, Tom Lavin. His dry and entertaining sense of humour kept us engaged throughout the journey. Tom’s commentary went beyond just the sites we visited; he provided insightful glimpses into Irish society, everyday life, and culture. A highlight of the trip for me was the traditional Irish lunch and a captivating sheepdog demonstration by Irish champions Tom and Tess—a unique cultural experience that set this tour apart from a typical coach trip. Overall, this tour was a perfect blend of breathtaking scenery, cultural immersion, and top-notch service. I wholeheartedly recommend My Ireland Tours and can’t wait to book their Discover Northern Ireland tour next!

Highest possible recommendation for My Ireland Tour. Eric and team were extremely responsive and helpful during the planning process. All details were meticulously managed during the tour. We were very blessed to have Daniel Gallagher as our guide. He was prompt, courteous, flexible, passionate about his amazing Country and very knowledgeable. He is genuinely committed to providing the best possible experience for his clients. Thank you Daniel for an epic trip!

September 2024 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
My wife and I just ended our 14 day Scotland and Ireland tour yesterday with My Ireland Tour. We had an amazing time! While we have traveled extensively this was the first time we have done so on a guided tour. Prior to booking I had numerous questions and Shannon answered every one of them quickly. Considering there was an 8 hour time difference between Ireland and home Shannon's promptness was appreciated. Once we arrived we met Paddy our guide and driver. Paddy was awesome! He is kind, caring and quick witted and takes care of everyone in the group like they were family. At every stop we observed several other travel companies doing tours. After seeing how every one of those other travel groups pack people into their buses I am so glad we booked with My Ireland Tour. We had a 50 passenger bus and My Ireland Tour only books 25 people per tour so everyone on our tour had plenty of room on the bus. Paddy made sure everyone was aware of our time schedule and kept us on time at every stop. My Ireland Tour set a standard for excellence and they met that standard in every category.

My husband and I highly recommend My Ireland Tours. We recently returned from the 14 day Iconic Scenes tour and it was absolutely beyond our expectations. Our tour guide was Ben Sullivan. Ben’s knowledge of the country and areas we visited was superb, the personal stories he shared were fascinating and his amazing singing voice was most enjoyable. The hotels were excellent. We would definitely do another tour with My Ireland Tours!

We booked a 10 day tour of Ireland and words cannot describe how wonderful this trip was. We worked with Kristel at My Ireland Tours, and she was absolutely a delight to work with. She answered all my questions in a timely manner and showed a great deal of patience with the 8 of us whom had never traveled to Ireland before. Our Private driver picked us up at the airport and took amazing care of us throughout the trip, tailoring the trip to our wants, and keeping us safe. A Huge shoutout for a job well done to Dave Darby, our driver/guide. He was humorous and made our group feel so very comfortable sightseeing in Ireland. I can tell you I certainly would not want to drive down those roads. Dave added so much to the context of our trip that we would never have gotten had we driven ourselves. Every single person on the trip was so impressed with Dave! We headed west from Dublin to Galway, next to Connemara, then to the Cliffs, then on to Dingle. We went to Killarney, then to Blarney and Kinsale. Back towards Dublin we saw Cahir and Rock of Cashel. We were so very tired, but had the time of our lives. Don't hesitate to try a private tour, or certainly one of their regular tours. My Ireland Tours is a wonderful tour company to work with. No surprises. Perfect planning.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Ireland! We booked a private tour with My Ireland Tour and were able to build an itinerary that suited our plans. Our driver/guide, Steven, was wonderful. As a matter of fact, he went out of his way to accommodate all of our requests. Two of the travelers were able to get in contact with relatives in Killarney, Sneem and Cloghane. They were thrilled with the opportunity to connect with them. Every day of our trip was perfect - from Dublin, traveling across Ireland to Killarney and all the tours involved. We couldn't have done it so successfully without the help of My Ireland Tour.

The most incredible tour and vacation I’ve ever been on. I, along with 25 other fortunate travelers, had the absolute pleasure of having Harry Fisher as our tour guide. He made us all feel welcome, at home, and like one big happy family from the start. His knowledge of history, the country, the people that worked at all the many places we visited, and much more, made the trip seamless and enjoyable from start to finish. I cannot recommend this tour group enough!
Carol Hollenbeck
September 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
Based on the recommendation of friends who previously traveled with My Ireland Tour, we chose the 10-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour in September. What a great choice! My husband and I couldn't have been happier with the tour and highly recommend My Ireland tour to anyone interested in seeing the wonderful country of Ireland. Whether we were in the lovely countryside with the green grasses and stone fences or in the cities of Galway, Killarney or Dublin, the people are all so friendly. Accommodations and food were good. What made the trip exceptional was our driver/guide, Tom Lavin! He was outstanding from the time he picked us up at the airport until he left us at the hotel on our last night. He was very informative with his narratives, always on time and very communicative. We always felt safe with his driving and were amazed with his skill at backing the coach into tight spots. A grand trip!!

September 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
We had a 'grand and lovely' time on our recent 10-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. We visited not only the major attractions, but added surprises like a chocolate factory, sheep herding and a Celtic crystal cutting demo. Tom Lavin, our driver/guide was exceptional. First of all, he was the most talented driver maneuvering tight spots and narrow roads that we have ever experienced. His narratives were very informative and entertaining, We always arrived at our scheduled stops on time, never had to wait in lines and had adequate free time to explore on our own. Our hotels and food were very good. My Ireland Tours is the only way to visit Ireland and having Tom as your driver/guide is like the cream on top of Irish coffee.

Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous! From Shauni expertly handling everything pre-trip & always getting back to me quickly when I had questions, to Don O'Donoghue (our bus driver/tour guide), this company knows how to treat their clients. My friend & I returned from our 14-day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour four days ago. Don was sooooo funny, knowledgeable, and full of great stories & information. I cannot believe how reasonable the price was for this 2-week tour with all of the nice hotels, meals, and activities they included. To top it all off, I absolutely DID NOT expect to be on a 50-person bus with only 25 of us -- leaving so much room to spread out. With the bus tours I've taken in the U.S. & Canada I have never had that before. Ireland was a Bucket List item for me, and I was thrilled & captivated at every turn. My favorite tour activity was seeing 'Tess' the champion sheep-herding dog do her thing -- so fun to watch... and the Blarney grounds & gardens were way more than I ever expected (I could have spent all day in their gardens). All the beauty and history of Ireland while being taken care of so well. Thank you 'My Ireland Tour', Shauni, and Don. You're the BEST!!!!

This was a wonderful tour - we visited so many places and saw so many sights, also there was a good variation in the things that we did. Our driver Tom was an excellent driver and very knowledgeable and kind. It was good to spend two nights in each hotel, after the first night, thus avoiding packing each day. Our suitcases were loaded for us on the bus and then taken to our rooms on arrival at the next hotel. There was plenty of room on the bus, with some spare seats. We stayed in good hotels and were well fed at breakfast and dinner and a couple of lunches. We were lucky with the September weather. The length of the tour was about right - 10 days almost. We thoroughly recommend the tour and thank the team for all the efficient arrangements.

September 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
I returned from the 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland ready to tell everyone they need to take this tour. Our driver, Tom Lavin, was absolutely fantastic. Witty, funny, knowledgeable and very comfortable laughing with us. We were given lots of historical information during the bus ride, had plenty of time to see the sights, wasn’t so regimented that we didn’t have some down time to do a little of what we wanted. The people in the group all felt like family by the end of the trip. We looked out for each other, laughed a lot and just had such an enjoyable time. Hotels were very nice, clean and accommodating. Great locations. Staff were all friendly. Everyone in Ireland was friendly. If you’re a coffee lover be prepared to complain. They haven’t gotten that right, the instant in the rooms turned out to be the best. First world problem. Highly recommend this trip.

I had a wonderful time on this tour being a single traveller. I felt very welcomed and included with the group . Our guide / driver Tony, not only was he an excellent driver but he also had extensive knowledge of Ireland history so very informative plus also a very good singer and had us laughing most days with his time schedule which was alway isshh ? I would highly recommend this company and our tour guide Thank you for a memorable holiday
Laurence Gretsch
September 2024 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
The 14 day tour of Ireland has without doubt been the most perfectly organised ever! Our driver-guide, Don, bent over backwards to make us all happy. He managed to do all that driving, some of it in really difficult situations, without ever losing his good mood and humour, all the while giving us plenty of info (plus some hilarious shaggy dog stories). He dealt with our heavy suitcases, never complaining. He patiently answered all questions and dealt with every request thrown at him. The local guides were unconvincing… no match for Don. We saw so much… too much to take it all in, and not enough …so we have to come back. The hotels were first class with one exception. Admittedly, the dinners got a boring after a while, so we tried some local restaurants! If you want to do an Ireland Tour, do not look anywhere else . My Ireland Tours cannot possibly be bettered.

September 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
We just returned from the 10 day Iconic Ireland tour. Our guide Tom L. made the trip especially memorable with interesting information about the areas we visited. He always included humor and a few personal notes which made the information all the more special. I always felt that we were in good hands with Tom’s expert driving and knowledge. Unfortunately, a virus seemed to have invaded our small group and I was so ill one day that I was unable to continue on. Tom arranged for an early check in for me at our hotel, took me to the hotel, checked me in and carried my luggage up to the room. His care was enormously appreciated and more than expected. 24 hours later, I was able to rejoin the group. Thank you again Tom. I will definitely be singing the praises of everyone we met associated with My Ireland Tours and highly recommend to anyone visiting Ireland.

We couldn't be happier with our My Ireland Tour vacation. Our group of 8 booked a private coach tour with Kristel handling the itinerary. We visited Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Ireland in our 13 days there. Our guide/driver was John Dennany and he was fantastic. He took excellent care of us at each stop, provided us with historical facts of the countries we visited and we all loved his wit and humor. The hotels were beautiful, the food was great (you won't go hungry!) and a couple of attractions included in our itinerary not to be missed are Kerry Falconry, Joyce Country Sheep Dogs and the dinner show at the Merry Ploughboys theater. Our local guides that joined us in the big cities added another dimension that we all appreciated. Thank you to My Ireland Tour. You will be highly recommended!

September 2024 • Ancient Ireland Tour
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our Ancient Ireland tour. Our tour guide, Colm provided an informative and convivial journey thru beautiful Irish sites and hotels that made for a unique experience. The small group approach is well worth the experience of being able to enjoy an intimate view and narrative of Irish history and how it’s formed the Ireland of today. Well done!

We had the good fortune of having Harry Fisher as our tour guide for our 8 day iconic tour of Ireland. Harry was incredible, his knowledge and experience as both a true native of Ireland and his many many years ( not giving the number Harry) made our trip a memory we will not forget. The pace was perfect and the sites were incredible. The an accommodations exceeded our expectations. From the first day to our last good bye at the airport Harry was there. Always keeping us entertained and informed. We are looking forward to the change from left hand drive to right hand drive to meet North American standards in Ireland in 30 years and the daily drop o the Liffey river when Guinness starts to brew a new batch. We have continued our journey as planned however, we missed Harry the very next day! If you should be so fortunate to book a tour with My Ireland Tour, I would recommend you ask for Harry. Thanks to Shannon for assisting me get this trip organized. The trip exceeded our expectations.

My wife and I have traveled frequently but this is the best trip we have ever taken. The tour was excellent and we got to see everything we wanted to see. The guide did an outstanding job with keeping everyone on time without ever making us feel rushed. The sites were amazing and the food was great. Our tour guide, Paddy, is second to none and we felt fortunate that he was our guide. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tours to anyone
John Cox
September 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
We enjoyed a great tour of Iconic Scotland and Ireland with Damian McKenna as our professional coach driver/tour guide. We enjoyed Damian’s commentary as he navigated the roads and lanes. The accommodation's were great except for Menlo Park in Galway was too far from the city center for easy walking and the hotel needs refurbishment. The group dinners were all good. Damian took action as needed to ensure we received our full value for dinners. We were impressed with Damian’s efforts to share a balanced look at Scotland, Ireland and the world! We appreciated that Damian truly cared about his guests and it truly showed with his hospitality and attitude. If not for Menlo Park Hotel, our review would have been a 5.
Gregory Engel
September 2024 • Deluxe Castles Tour
My wife and I would rate the My Ireland Tour 10-day Deluxe Castle Tour a 5-star tour from booking to departure. Communications from owner Eric during booking and pre-planning were always prompt and thorough. Our driver/guide Tom was always pleasant, helpful, responsive, passionate, funny and knowledgeable while keeping the tour group safe, on time and engaged from the time he picked us up at the airport to our last early morning getting dropped off. He shared many stories with us as well as some famous Irish Crisps and Seaweed snacks. Many of the group continued purchasing Irish Crisps, none were seen purchasing the Seaweed. The castle/hotel rooms were luxurious, clean and comfortable with all the amenities you'd expect. Views from our rooms at 3 of the 5 hotels were average at best while 2 of the 5 were spectacular. This was expected with tour groups and didn't matter as we spent little time in our rooms. The castle/hotel meals were excellent. We had plenty of time for the full Irish breakfast experience each morning with continental buffets or ordering hot items off menus. The dinners were all high quality Prix Fix menus with several options for starters, main course and dessert. Depending on the hotel, they can last from 1.5-2.5 hours and while most dressed casual, a sport coat and dress would also be appropriate. The Pullman Restaurant at The Glen Abbey was a special highlight that should not be missed. We will say that after so many of these meals, the group was getting restless and decided to cancel the group dinner and head into Kerry for Pizza/Beer/Wine. There were also several opportunities for a quick pub lunch and a Guinness during our tour. You will come away gaining about 10 lbs! WiFi was readily available on the bus, in hotels, at most tour sites, shops and restaurants. Charging electronics was easy with USB ports on the bus and hotel rooms. This was a jam packed tour with many outstanding historical and geographic sites and we would not change a thing. We will definitely consider My Ireland Tours for future family vacations.

September 2024 • 8 Day Iconic Scenes
We did 8 day iconic with Harry as our guide. He made the trip a wonderful experience from the beginning. He even helped me get a laptop back that I had left behind at one of our stops. He went out of his way to make everyone feel welcome, learn about Ireland, and laugh. This company puts together excellent tours with very nice coaches that they do not pack full. 26 people max allows everyone to have their own seat which is wonderful. The coach is also cleaned every night as well! The hotels chosen by the company were also all very nice. The provided meals were varied and flavorful and had something for everyone. I don't believe I could have put this tour together myself less expensively than the tour price. Highly recommended for a stress free and enjoyable tour of Ireland.
Bill Organek
September 2024 • Deluxe Castles Tour
My wife & I thoroughly enjoyed our 10-day castle tour with Garey as our articulate, witty & informative guide and skillful driver. He held our attention with his description of Irish history and the country’s unique role in world affairs while knowledgably relating connections to other countries represented in our vigorous group (Canada, Australia, USA). His narrative was enlightening and educational and Garey did everything he could to accommodate us. The pace was just right with the scheduled visits, all well planned and executed. The accommodations were clearly top-shelf and hotel staff were consistent with the expert handling we’ve become accustomed to as MyIrelandTour customers. The Irish people we randomly came in contact with were pleasantly engaging almost as if on cue. There is not one suggestion to be made except to keep it up as our experience could not have been better! Bill Organek & Emily Carrow

September 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
Our tour guide, Ken, made our tour even more interesting with his quick wit and charming personality- we had a great time with him. He is a very effective communicator and gave first class service to everyone on our tour. He made sure that everyone received top notch service - not only from himself but also from all the hotel staff and walk-on tour guides. I must say that ALL the hotels were exceptionally and well chosen. My only suggested change would be for the DoubleTree Hilton hotel in Edinburgh - it is not great and fell short of my expectations- especially compared to all the other establishments. Otherwise, this is an excellent tour and I will recommend to family and friends should they wish to visit Scotland and Ireland.

We just returned one week ago today, September 20 from our 14 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland August 31 through September 13.I travelled with my older sister, my twin brother and brother in law. We were born in Ireland and emigrated to America in 1954. Although we have returned a few times in the past, this is the first time that we have taken an organized tour, as we knew this would no doubt be our last visit as we are in our 'golden' years. It was one of the best experiences in my recollection. This tour enabled us to see more of Ireland in this short time. Our driver was Ben Sullivan. He was a wonderful tour guide, driver, story teller, so entertaining and knowledgeable of Irish History and he also had a fabulous sense of humor. Thank you Ben for making this trip and experience very memorable. We were quick to bond with our tour group of 20 ladies and gents from the U.S. and Canada. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tours to anyone who is considering visiting Ireland. Thank you!

This is a great tour. What we liked best?. Start with our guide Ken. Knowledgeable, funny and gave great advice. This was a small (8 person) tour and everyone got along great. We especially enjoyed the places we visited and the drives were pleasurable thanks again to Ken's info and the vehicle. For anyone afraid of getting stuck in a big group, look into one like this. We drove quite a few miles, but it was never too much. The sights along the way were superb. We learned quite a bit of history and the many castles we visited were quite interesting. The accommodations were all excellent and a couple even better than that.

September 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
We just returned from our 10-day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. Everything was top notch from our exceptional driver/guide, Tony, to the hotel rooms, the meals and all of the experiences. Plenty of room on the coach with only 26 of us. Tony has extensive knowledge of everything 'Ireland' and he certainly enriched our trip by sharing this with us. The tour itself is well thought out and planned to allow plenty of time for breaks, meals, getting from place to place and for making the most of our time. A truly great way to experience Ireland!

September 2024 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
Our 14 day trip with My Ireland Tours was a great experience! Our driver/guide, Damian McKenna, did an amazing job of sharing information and stories as he drove us between each of our sites and destinations. Both Scotland and Ireland are beautiful countries and we feel this trip gave us a wonderful taste of each. There were a couple of days where the on bus time seemed a bit long but Damian played beautiful Irish music when he wasn't providing us with history and storytelling to past the time between stops. The hotels were all good, especially the two castle/palace settings. They were very beautiful! I recommend this tour as a super way to get to know these two amazing countries!

The travel arrangements and accommodations were first rate. The food was delicious. Our guide was informative, entertaining & an excellent coach driver. The tour gave us good insight into Irish history as well as introducing us to many natural wonders of Ireland. It was a wonderful experience overall. I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in exploring Ireland. We are already looking into another tour of England and Scotland with My Ireland Tours.

September 2024 • Discover Northern Ireland
This is the second tour we have done with My Ireland Tour and it exceeded our expectations again! The first one we did was two years ago and covered the Republic of Ireland. This one was Northern Ireland. It is invaluable having such a pleasant and knowledgeable driver/guide educating us about what we're seeing, where we're going, and much more all while navigating the coach through narrow streets. Our driver/guide was Sean ran a tight ship and kept us on schedule. We were fortunate that everyone on our tour were pleasant and timely in getting to the coach. I learned so much more about Northern Ireland than I expected from Sean and our specials tour guides in Belfast and Derry. Ireland is one of the most beautiful countries in the world and this was the perfect way to see it. Being on a tour provides for a much greater understanding of where you are and what you are seeing. We had plenty of time on our own to see things in addition to the planned tour, such as The Crown pub in Belfast.

September 2024 • 8 Day Iconic Scenes
My husband and I just returned from the 8 day iconic scenes tour. Our tour guide was John Mulryan and he was amazing. He filled us in on Irish history and gave us a real feel for the place. His driving skills were astonishing! John’s attention to detail kept us on schedule, but not in a rigid way. His sense of humor kept things fun. This was a great way to see Ireland as we were first timers. The accommodations were first rate and the food was very good. We were with a group of 24 people and that was the perfect size since we could stretch out . Our group was great, we met some fun, interesting people which only enhanced the trip. We were nervous about joining a tour, but now feel it was the best way to go. You can do as much or little as you want to, and there is time to venture out on your own. It was wonderful to arrive at each location, John would get the tickets and we would march right in without waiting on lines. With the exception of the Samuel Hotel, meals were ready to be ordered within minutes. I really can’t say enough good things about this tour, except that if you have the chance, go!

My Dad and I did the 6-day My Ireland Tour and had a grand time! Our driver and host, Séamus, was fantastic, going above and beyond to give us names of cab drivers for where we were going after the tour ended. We got to visit lovely towns, see spectacular views, and learn about the history and resilience of the Irish people. I highly recommend a tour from My Ireland Tour! Every question was answered beforehand as well with speed!

My Ireland tour was truly Magical. I never expected such lush beautiful countryside with sparkling rivers in the sun, Yes! The weather 'Gods' where kind to us. Our tour driver/guide Brian Treanor was a delight. A fountain of knowledge and a genuinely kind helpful person with a good sense of humour. Nothing was to much trouble, even driving the 43ft coach around the Ring of Kerry, not for the faint hearted. Truly an exceptional experience, but for some it was like a white knuckle ride, our friends from Canada and USA aren't used to such narrow roads and bridges with 2 way traffic... lol!!! Aqain, well done Brian. How lucky were Ann-Marie and I (Sandra), to share a coach with 22 Canadians 2 Americans and us (2 English ladies) what a great Cocktail of people, it was FUN!! Thanks all of you it was 'A Great a Tour' So, 'Thank you Ireland' to all the staff at the hotels and our tour guides at all our stops throughout our 10daytour. For all the Irish coffee's, guinnesses and Jameson's cocktails. My Ireland Tours and Brian you did a GRAND job!!!

I cannot recommend this enough for anyone wanting to visit Ireland. The tour company was very formative, great with communication and our tour guide Tony McGoey was absolutely amazing!! When asked if we had a favorite part of our tour I cannot name one as the entire tour was better than we imagined.

Our bus driver/ tour guide/ historian was Paddy. He was so knowledgeable and kind. We loved him. My sister and I enjoyed the trip very much. Most hotels were great, service was perfect, food was delicious, and the other 21 people in the group were fun to be with. I highly recommend this trip to Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Republic of Ireland.

OMG!! We had an unbelievable time! Our tour guide, Harry, was so knowledgeable and friendly! We did the 6 day iconic tour and we saw Cliffs of Moher, Ring of Kerry, Galway, Dublin, Midleton Distillery, EPIC museum, Blarney Castle, beautiful landscapes, and so much along the way! The people of Ireland are so friendly and the planning of My Ireland Tours was executed perfectly. We will absolutely be going back and will use this company again! Thank you for a great week and a fabulous way to spend my 40th birthday!

6 of us booked an 8-night private tour of Ireland with My Ireland Tours. It could not have gone better. We worked with them before booking to develop an itinerary. They booked all the accommodations and provided us with a driver/guide, in our case Cahel, who did an outstanding job touring us around and providing in-depth history and local knowledge. We felt the price was very reasonable for the first-class accommodations, including a castle stay! All breakfasts were included and 3 outstanding dinners. Our vehicle was a deluxe 9-passenger Mercedes Sprinter configured for each person to have a single window seat. We all had a clear view of the stunning scenery and plenty of room to spread out. True professionalism from everyone we worked with to put this trip together, I Highly recommend.

My wife, sister and recently returned from Ireland where we did the '10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland' tour with 'My ireland Tour' Company. This was one of the best experiances we have ever had with a tour group type vacation. Our guide was 'Tony' who went out of his way to assure our vacation was enjoyable. it was a group of 25 of us on the Bus. The bus was comfortable with pleanty of room for the trip. All of our hotel accomadations were excellent. Great food. Never had a bad meal on the trip. Tony shared his vast Knowlede of Ireland History with us which made the trip that much more special. We highly recommend this company if your looking for a group tour company in Ireland.

We had a fantastic 6-day tour with My Ireland! Our guide, Seamus, was wonderful. He told us so many interesting stories and facts about Ireland during our travels, and threw in some good humor along the way. He was very helpful and knowledgeable about everything we asked him. I highly recommend booking with this company. It's incredible all we saw in a short amount of time. Now I know exactly where I want to visit again to spend more time exploring. Also, if you have questions or need details, whenever you email the tour company they get right back to you... excellent communication! Don't hesitate, book now.

We chose a My Ireland Tours because it is headquartered in Ireland and is family owned. The trip we went on was the 14 day iconic tour. This was one of my all time favorite vacations. Every day was full of exciting adventures. We saw all the major sites and then some. Our tour guide Ben was top notch. He was knowledgeable, entertaining, considerate, and a great singer.

We did the 6 day discover Northern Ireland Tour. It was amazing! Our driver/guide Sean was wonderful. Very kind and entertaining. He had so much knowledge about Ireland and the places we visited. The tour was very well planned and hotels we stayed in were clean and very comfortable. Meals were excellent and we liked that it was a smaller tour to get to know everyone. It was an incredible experience and we can’t wait to do another tour with my Ireland tours in the future!

My husband and I took the most absolutely beautiful tour of Ireland with 6 of our closest friends. We traveled the countryside in our comfortable mini-Mercedes coach with the most knowledgeable, friendly and fun tour guide Mick! Mick's stories, historic information, personality, and awesome seafood chowder recommendations were the BEST! We covered so much in 8 days from Dublin to Kildare to Killarney to Galway City back to Dublin and all the iconic places along the way! The accomodations (hotels and castles) were comfortable and beautiful with the friendliest staff! We wouldn't have changed a thing and highly recommend My Ireland Tours!

Just completed a 10 day tour of Southern Ireland. The tour was a private tour which consisted of a party of 12 family members and friends. This was everyone in my parties first visit to Ireland. The tour was great and the hotel accommodations were first rate. Our driver/guide David was very informative and accommodating. I highly recommend My Ireland Tour.
John Duffin
September 2024 • Discover Northern Ireland
The Discover Northern Ireland tour was excellent! Our driver/guide Sean was friendly and attentive, informative, and entertaining as he taught us about the places we visited, and he is clearly a skillful driver. The full-sized motor coach was very comfortable, and, as promised, our tour group was small enough that we each could have had a full double seat to ourselves if we wanted. The driving legs of the tour were never overly long since the trip was carefully planned, and we had timely bathroom stops. Each of the hotels we slept in were very comfortable, the dinners and breakfasts good, and the staff friendly and helpful. The sites and local tours arranged by the master planner were amazing, and we saw and learned so much. By the end of the tour, I felt fulfilled in my desire to see and learn about Northern Ireland for the first time. Everyone in the tour agreed we would gladly take a My Ireland Tour again. It was wonderful!

September 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
My sister and I had a fantastic experience with My Ireland Tours! We did the 14 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland. This This was a smaller group (28 people) so I had the opportunity to meet and get to know everyone over our 14 days in Ireland. Our guide, Sean, shared his knowledge of Ireland which was unparalleled. He shared fascinating stories about the country's past, brought the landmarks to life, and ensured we experienced the best of Irish culture. His passion for his homeland was infectious, and he made every moment of the tour unforgettable. He also made great recommendations for food and experiences outside of the tour. Sean went out of his way to make sure everyone on tour had a great experience. He even recommend a great local pub for me to celebrate a birthday in Cork! The itinerary was perfectly balanced, allowing us to explore iconic cities like Belfast, Dublin, and Galway while also experiencing the tranquility of the countryside. Every stop along the Wild Atlantic Way was breathtaking. Our accommodations were comfortable and the meals were tasty. I highly recommend this tour to anyone seeking an authentic and immersive Irish experience. Thank you to Sean and the entire tour team for creating such a wonderful memory. 10/10 would book My Ireland Tours again.

September 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
A very comprehensive tour of Ireland with lovely hotel and dining accommodations. Fair warning it is quite a lot of walking and going up hills and stairs it even left me a bit exhausted by the end. But all in all it was a wonderful time, feels like you see just about everything there is to see in Ireland. Tour guide Michael was charming and knowledgeable and brought some nice local color to the trip. Would definitely recommend for those who don't have mobility or other health issues.
Harriet Hodgson
September 2024 • Iconic Britain and Ireland Tour
Fiona is an outstanding guide--efficient, informed, and caring. The coach driver was courteous and helpful. Hotel breakfasts were outstanding, dinners less so because of so much fried, unhealthy food. I heartily recommend My Ireland Tour to anyone who wants to learn more about England, Scotland, and Ireland. My trip was a dream come true.

This tour was thoughtfully created and extremely well organized. Our tour director, Fiona, was top notch; she is very knowledgeable about the history and significance of all the places the tour goes through and did a fantastic job of coordinating with the hotels we stayed at to ensure our stays went as smoothly as possible. Also, our driver, Brent, is engaging and upbeat and is an outstanding driver who never ceased to amaze as he navigated tight spaces daily.

September 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
We just returned from our 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour and it was amazing and exceeded all of our expectations. Our guide/driver was Tom Lavin and he was exceptional in every respect. He was able to navigate the very narrow roadways with unbelievable expertise and calmness. Tom was a fountain of information and shared the history of all the sites we visited as well as how Ireland has evolved over the years on everything from sheep farming to school uniforms. All of his commentary was light, non-controversial and often very humorous. Our tour traveled about 1,000 miles over the 10 days and all the sites we visited were great. The quaint towns, villages and countryside we passed through were beyond beautiful. There is definitely something for everyone. The accommodations were all very nice and comfortable (if you use washcloths, bring your own because they are not part of the bathroom linens in 3 of the hotels) and the meals were plentiful. I highly recommend My Ireland Tours .

My family of 8 just returned from our 6 day tour with My Ireland Tour company and it was a fantastic experience. Our driver/tour guide did an excellent job of showing us the sights of Ireland and went the extra mile by dropping some of us off at the airport instead of downtown Dublin
Clay Jeffreys
September 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
My wife and I recently completed a 10 day tour in Ireland. Our guide, Tom Lavin, was exceptional! A 10 day bus tour could be boring, and he made sure it wasn't! Tom provided more insight and history of Ireland than we saw in most of the places we stopped. Knowing the history and context of things made them more interesting. It was also nice not having to check into the hotels. Our keys were ready for us when we arrived, and our bags brought to the room. We would definitely use My Ireland Tours again. Thanks for a great trip Tom!
Randy Klocke
September 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
I just returned from the 10 Day Iconic Ireland tour. I have been on several coach tours in the past by far this one was the best. Our tour guide/driver Tom Lavin was awesome, his surprise stops on the tour starting with the crystal demonstration at Connemara Celtic Crystal to the Kells Sheepdogs demonstration. His driving skills amazed me. More than once he was applauded for that skill. I learned so much about Ireland from Tom that I never knew. His knowledge amazed me. We were given enough time at each stop on the tour to fully enjoy what we were seeing. I thoroughly enjoyed the private tours we received, everyone of the guides were amazing. The only stop on the tour I could have missed was the Guinness Warehouse. I wonder if you could offer an alternative stop in Dublin for those not interested in Guinness Warehouse. The three course dinners were delicious. I’m looking forward to my next tour with My Ireland Tours.

Just returned home from our 10 day My Ireland Tour. We have been on several bus tours and this by far was the best one we have ever been on.

My cousins and I just returned from the 10-day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour, and we couldn't have had a better experience! Cathal, our guide, was so personable, knowledgeable, and funny! We enjoyed every aspect of the tour--from the excellent hotels and food and interesting sites and history to the amazing views and beauty of Ireland! We were elated when we discovered our grandmother's family buried at St. Patrick's Cathedral in Cashel! This trip was definitely the trip of a lifetime, and we'll have fond memories of Ireland and its people.

Just returned from 8 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour. If I could give higher than 5 stars I would. This tour far exceeded my expectations. Communications with the staff prior to the tour were wonderful. Shannon and Keith responded to every question I had. Harry was an excellent guide/driver. His knowledge was extensive and I learned so much about Ireland from him. Harry used Whatsapp during the tour to keep us informed of our schedule. He was always available whenever we needed him. The sites we visited were wonderful. The hotels were very nice and the food was fantastic. This tour is put together so well. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to visit Ireland. I'm hoping to return soon to do the Scotland and England tours.

Just returned home from a beautiful 8 day Iconic Irleand tour! Harry was our driver, guide, and guru! He was amazing! We felt very taken care of from pickup at airport, every detail was taken care of- meals, hotels, tips for all restaurants and hotel services, plus a trip back to the airport for departure. We literally had zero worries the entire trip! This is the only way to travel! No stress and getting pampered! Plus, our own personal tour guide with 44 years of coach drivng experience! I can't say enough wonderful things about Harry Fisher and this company. You won't regret booking with this highly rated company.

My friend and I just finished the Discover Northern Ireland tour and it was fabulous. Sean O'Sullivan, our tour guide, was outstanding in every way. I felt totally taken care of each day from arrival through the end. Sean was so knowledgeable about the area. He was very friendly and easy to get along with. We had nice hotels with luggage delivered and picked up from our room. The meals were good, with sufficient options. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tour!
ACA Adventures
September 2024 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
Just got back from an amazing 14 day tour of Scotland and Ireland with Pat Pendergast driving and,somehow over narrow, windy roads, giving excellent commentary along the way. It was our first bus tour and it will be hard to top for sure. You want castles? Check. You want cathedrals? Check. You want, sheep and coos? Check and check. We don't know which piece of scenery was our favorite. Pat was so accommodating when we wanted to do something away from the group and always ready with suggestions when the tour day was over. A couple of the hotels weren't quite as good as the rest but we understood it might be hard to find places that could take our group. I had been to Scotland before but this was so much easier and better. If you're thinking of a trip to Scotland or Ireland, don't hesitate. Just contact My Ireland Tours, sit back and enjoy.

Ireland was beautiful and John’s flexibility and responsiveness to our families interests made every moment enjoyable. We had a special day for our daughter’s engagement and John was one of the family celebrating the joy. John’s knowledge and engaging storytelling brought Ireland’s history and culture to life. He tailored the experience just for us, making it both educational and entertaining. A top-notch guide! Top-notch trip of a lifetime for our family of seven. Tim McK and fam

My Ireland Tours is a fantastic tour! The group was smaller than other bus tours, we got to spread out in the bus. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, funny and professional. We stayed at top notch hotels (one castle) and saw all the points of interest on my list. We even stopped at a couple places I wouldn’t have considered but, am glad we got to see. John, our driver and guide told us about Irish history, education, healthcare and some religion. He was an amazing driver along with a very caring and patient person. I highly recommend this trip.

Ann Johnston
September 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
It was so nice to sit back on a comfortable mid-sized bus with Pat Prendergast as our driver/tour guide. As we watched the amazing countryside roll by, we heard a wealth of history and Scottish and Irish lore from this extremely knowledgeable and charming cat herder. Pat is gentle, kind, and delightful, but he knows how to keep the group moving, and understands how to get a group of 24 willful, independent travelers to the right place at the right time. I recommend this trip, certainly to anyone in the age bracket that was represented, which was 50-85. He was supportive of those who wanted to 'do their own thing' at dinner, and was ready with recommendations for all the best pubs/spots not to miss. My Ireland Tours gave us a trip that ranks in the top three of my adventures, and that is saying a lot!

My husband and I just returned from the Deluxe Irish Castle tour and enjoyed this tour so much and would highly recommend it to others who want to see most of Ireland! Don our tour guide was exceptional in every way. He honestly made this tour amazing with his in depth knowledge, humor and ability to keep things running smoothly. You will see many wonderful sights of Ireland while enjoying the history and humorous stories Don tells along the way! It's an active tour for people who are not handicapped and able to walk and climb stairs. A five star experience for sure!

What an amazing experience! John Mulryan was the most patient, kind, fun and well informed driver. John provided a safe space for all and was very receptive in meeting the needs of everyone. We did the 8 day iconic tour and would go back again as there is so much to see and do. Ireland is incredibly beautiful and the people were very kind.

September 2024 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
Wow!! What a trip! My wife and I were able to take the Iconic Scotland/Ireland Tour with Pat Prendergast as our guide. What a wealth of knowledge he was. So much history to enhance the scenery. He was very patient and kind and went out of his way to make sure our experience was everything we dreamed. I loved being able to turn over the driving to someone much better at it than myself. With everyone driving on the “wrong” side of the car and the road, I would have missed so much having to concentrate on driving. The hotels were wonderful, especially Lough Eske castle. I missed having A/C in some of the hotels but even though we were there during the heart of August, the temperatures were wonderfully cool. All breakfasts and dinners being provided was very nice, but we also took the opportunity on some nights to go out and find some local fare on our own. Most hotels we could walk to experience the local scene but a couple required a short cab ride and we never had a problem getting a taxi. We saw so much over two weeks even though the pace was relaxing. While there was bus time getting from location to location, the scenery and commentary along the way was exceptional and made the trip a well-rounded experience. The bus was very comfortable and we sat pretty much where we wanted but rotated to give everyone a chance up front. The group size was only 24 people and we loved being able to spend some time getting to know new friends. This was our first tour trip and we met people we will definitely be travelling with again. We will be taking another trip to Ireland soon with our family and will definitely be using My Ireland Tours again!

This was my first trip to Ireland. We opted for the Taste of Ireland tour. It was perfect for a sampling of all Ireland has to offer from Dublin to Galway and Killarney. The smaller towns were my personal preference. Our driver/guide, Seamus Keogh, was wonderful. It was the perfect small group tour for an introduction to Ireland.

My best friend and I recently returned from the most magical first time visiting Ireland for a 10-day tour with My Ireland Tours. We still feel like we are in a dream and have no words to describe the outstanding time we had. From the start, this experience was perfect. We were able to work with the kindest trip coordinator, Eric O’Gorman, to build on an itinerary that suited our hopes and dreams. The accommodations were superb and we were so well taken care of. Our driver and guide, Ger Murphy, was everything. He made this the most unforgettable trip, from his endless knowledge and expertise to his kind and thoughtful recommendations and care for us. We truly miss spending our days laughing and learning with him. This was the trip of a lifetime! We highly recommend traveling with this company and cannot wait to return! THANK YOU!

I had arranged for a private tour of Ireland for our family of seven. We had a clean, comfortable motorcoach for 10 people. George Connolly was our wonderful driver for the 9 days we were in Ireland. He was knowledgeable, personable, had a good sense of humor and he took good care of us. By the end of the trip, he was a part of our family. The itinerary and the hotels chosen for us were all clean and nice and was in the city center (which I requested) close to everything. It also included our breakfasts and one dinner. We all had a great time! Thank you Kristel for putting our tour together. I would, without hesitation, recommend My Ireland tour!

Update!!! We FINALLY made it. I don’t even have words to describe the majesty that is Ireland so my advice is book with My Ireland and see for yourself! This company is incredible to work with from start to finish. Best of all you can trust them to make your trip all you want and much more. Kristel and Catriona were super responsive and provide great recommendations, 4 years of communication and always so kind and patient!! Our driver Cathal was our groups perfect match he was incredibly knowledgeable in Irish history and had a lovely sense of humor. We miss him already but came home full of memories and even more love for Ireland. We will be back and there is no doubt My Ireland will be our choice and fingers crossed Cathal will take another journey with us!!! We booked and paid in full for a private tour for family and friends for August 2020. As we all know that wasn’t going to happen :( we hoped 2021 we would still be able to go, unfortunately it just wasn’t a good time. They offered a full refund in March 2020 but we decided to take the risk and not ask for a refund then. In February 2021 with a heavy heart we asked for a refund, we received every cent back in just a few short days. I’d like to start by saying Kristel was fabulous through the entire process of booking and eventually cancellation. My husband communicated regularly with her to add things we would like to see and to get updates once the world was hit with COVID-19. The professionalism, transparency and kindness this company showed us should be commended. Without a doubt when my family is able to travel to Ireland we will use this company. Honestly I could not sing enough praise for Kristel and My Ireland Tours do not hesitate to book with this company.

My Ireland Tour was amazing. Our driver, Seamus was so informative, fun and an extremely good driver. We had so much fun and loved every moment of it. The only thing I would have changed is that I wished the bus left at 9am instead of 8am. With the time difference, 8am made it very difficult. The one extra hour of sleep would have been welcomed.Never-the-less, I would highly recommend this tour to anyone! Thank you My Ireland Tour for making our vacation so memorable.

August 2024 • 8 Day Iconic Scenes
Our family of three from Chicago really enjoyed our 8-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland from the time we arrived to the time we left. We had welcome drinks on the first night and met for the first time the rest of the tour group. The tour felt relaxed and not rushed with sufficient time for comfort stops. Our driver/tour guide Karl White kept us on schedule, well-informed, and we really felt safe with his expert navigation of the country/city roads. We’d love to do another tour with him in the future. All the hotels and meals were impressive. We had very good comfortable sleep each night. Glad that fish and other healthy options were available in our dinners. It was amazing visiting Killarney, Rock of Cashel, Blarney Castle, Ring of Kerry, Killarney, Cliffs of Moher, Connemara, Kylemore Abbey, Galway and Dublin. We loved learning the history in each place, very interesting. And the Irish people were very nice and welcoming. Thank you My Ireland Tour!

My wife and I just went on an 8 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour through My Ireland Tours. My Ireland Tours - very easy to work with, and responsive to any questions we had along the way. They kept us up to date with information throughout the process, and had a great level of customer service. We interacted with Keith, who was great to work with, and answered every question we had in a prompt, helpful manner. We took a few extra days before and after the tour, so we didn’t participate in the airport transfers, but those that did were happy with them. Tour guide - we had Harry Fisher as our bus driver/tour guide, and I can’t imagine a better tour guide. He was loaded with information about everywhere we went, not just the attractions, but places along the way, as well as history and stories about everything Ireland. It was almost like taking a history tour. He was great with recommendations for dining, shopping or sightseeing on our own. He utilized WhatsApp and kept everyone up to date on every aspect of the tour, as well as additional information we may find useful. He was extremely personable, and very in tune to accommodating the various needs of the group. We had one member of the tour that was elderly and got sick, and he took extra care to make sure she was always comfortable and had everything she needed, including having hotel personnel catering to her needs. Harry is an extremely good driver and everyone felt extremely comfortable with him behind the wheel. Hotels - all very nice. Roomy, comfortable and clean. The dinners and breakfasts at each hotel were of very good quality, with a good variety of options to choose from. Other than Dunboyne Castle Hotel, which was very nice, the hotel locations were great, with easy walking access to all the main sites and activities. All hotel personnel were very friendly and accommodating. The logistics were also exceptional - lunch breaks and dinners were well coordinated, and luggage was handled by porters at each hotel stop so you didn’t have to worry about lugging bags around. Itinerary - what a great way to experience the highlights of Southern Ireland. All of the areas that I had on my list of places to see - Rock of Cashel, Blarney Castle, Ring of Kerry, Killarney, Cliffs of Moher, Galway and Dublin were covered with adequate time to see the necessary sites and still have available time to explore on our own. The lunch stops and recommendations were all very good. There were adequate rest stops built into the itinerary that allowed for bathroom breaks and opportunities to stretch. Value for the money - extremely satisfied with the value of the tour for the price. Everyone we spoke with on the tour had the same opinion. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who wishes to get a good exposure to Ireland. I’m sure all of the tour guides are top notch, but Harry made the trip an even more enjoyable experience.

August 2024 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
Our family of 5 had an unforgettable holiday travelling on the Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour in August 2024 with My Ireland Tour. Our driver & guide Paddy O'Farrell made this tour an incredible experience for our group of 22. Paddy is an exceptional tour guide, who's obviously doing a job he loves. Paddy's knowledge of each area we visited and the rapport he has with hotel staff, operators and locals, made each day run smoothly and maximised our time at every stop. Paddy enjoyed making our tour unique, offering additional experiences including a night of Irish Dancing for our group and driving us to and from the venue in his own time. Paddy's driving skills are exceptional, manoeuvring a large Coach through narrow roads and reverse parking into tight spaces with ease. His extensive knowledge of English & Irish history is vast and made our tour an educational trip to remember. Each hotel was excellent, having 2 night stays at most stops was welcomed and a night stay in a Castle was a highlight. Having most meals and admission to venues included was very convenient and good value for the price of this tour. Every aspect, from the first enquiry with Keith who kept in regular contact with us, to the meet and greet on arrival, the 2 week tour and the farewell departure transfer, all was efficient and professional. If you're considering a holiday to Ireland, book early to secure your spot with My Ireland Tour, they're the best.

We had a great time on the Discover Scotland & Ireland August 2024 tour and highly recommend this tour company. Our smaller group of 26 quickly became travel mates and enjoyed a comfortable coach with plenty of room. Our tour guide/driver, Damian McKenna, was the best! Not only was he knowledgeable about our itinerary, but he shared a wealth of history as transporting us safely from stop to stop. The hotels were comfortable and lovely. Meals were good and the free time allowed was more than adequate to explore on our own. My “wow moment” was the Edinburgh Military Tattoo--the bagpipes, castle, lights and dancers were awesome. A visit to Ireland and Scotland will not disappoint, but My Ireland Tour made it hassle-free and fun.

August 2024 • Deluxe Castles Tour
We had an incredible experience with the Deluxe Irish Castle Tour. Tom Lavin was an exceptional guide with his knowledge and personable nature. Tom added the special touch to our tour with unexpected stops so we can marvel at unique Irish sights. The tour was well organized and allowing us to see much of Ireland. Each hotel was exquisite (except Dunboyne Castle was standard accommodations) and unique. The food was elegant, plentiful and delicious. I would definitely take another My Ireland tour in the future.

August 2024 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
We did the Scotland and Ireland tour, it was fantastic. Our driver Paddy was wonderful and full of knowledge, also a very skilled driver. We had abt 22people on our tour, 9 of us being Aussie. I can not rate this tour highly enough and would do it all again in a heartbeat.
Lee Reynolds
August 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
I had a great time on the 10 day iconic Ireland tour. The coach was very comfortable and spacious, the tour guide, Ben Sullivan, was very knowledgeable and entertaining. The itinerary was very exciting and we had plenty of time at each location to see what we wanted. The built in free time in some of the locations was also very helpful allowing us to see things on our own and to do some shopping. The hotels were excellent and I enjoyed all the food options, something for every taste. I'd definitely do another tour with My Ireland Tours!!

August 2024 • Ancient Ireland and Scotland Tour
My wife and I recently returned from the Ancient Ireland and Scotland Tour with My Ireland Tours and we cannot say enough good things about it. The tour was very well planned from the first minute. The tour guides, Peter Kelly and Ken O Connor, were amazing, very accommodating in every way, very knowledgeable about the places and history around us, and genuinely interested in us personally and as a group. We loved the personal attention which went along with a small group of travelers, only 8 in the group. The accommodations for each night were top notch, and the itinerary was varied and interesting. We had a lovely trip, and saw so many interesting things that we would have missed if we had tried to travel on our own. We highly recommend this tour and this tour company for your travel needs.

Our 8-day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour was exceptional. The hotels, meals, and landmarks/places of interest were all great and beautiful! From the time we arrived at Dublin airport to departing for home, Karl White, our tour guide/driver was phenomenal! His depth of knowledge was extensive and helped us all to better understand and appreciate the places we visited. We definitely will return for another My Ireland Tour because there is still so much more to see and experience. Thank you for an unforgettable trip!

I took the 10 day iconic tour and was very happy. The driver/ tour guide Brian, was amazing. He had lots of stories to tell and his driving was impeccable. The places we saw were great, especially the Cliffs of Moher. I am so glad I chose this tour, as everything was organized and I didn't have to worry about finding places to eat or organizing my own tours. I will definitely be back in the future.

August 2024 • Deluxe Castles Tour
My mom and I recently returned from a fantastic 10-day Deluxe Irish Castle Tour. When I woke up and went to work on my first day home, it felt like it had all been a dream! We usually travel independently, but we decided to try a group tour to maximize our sightseeing on the island. We chose My Ireland Tour because of the small group size (26), the unique accommodations, and the fact that the company is Irish-owned and -operated. They certainly delivered! Booking was easy and communications from Shannon were prompt and detailed. The hotels were beautifully appointed and the included breakfasts and dinners were convenient and filling. The nightly three-course dinners could be long (2 hours) but the presentation was exquisite and the food was delicious, especially the Irish lamb and beef. My favorite hotel was Lough Eske Castle with its warm welcome and serene setting. We loved the diverse itinerary. The only site we didn’t enjoy was the Guinness Storehouse (not into beer, crowded, and not much substance); in hindsight, we should have tried to walk to one of Dublin’s many museums instead. My itinerary highlights were Derry and our walking tour by Gerry, seeing Connemara ponies up close at Kylemore Abbey, the scenic driving in Connemara and Kerry, the herding demonstration by Tom O’Sullivan of Kells Sheepdogs, and the tour by Daire of Christ Church Cathedral from belfry to crypt. Last but definitely not least, a memorable part of the trip was our driver-guide, Tom Lavin. Tom has the perfect personality: conscientious, witty, never overbearing but attentive and ready to step in with advice. His professional driving skills are second to none, always prepared to evade wild drivers or wayward sheep. On two occasions, our group broke into applause after some particularly difficult maneuvering. Tom was able to talk at length about any topic: history, agriculture, politics, education, religion, the environment, healthcare, music, etc. We learned a lot and really appreciated hearing the knowledge and personal anecdotes he shared (I have a PhD in history and I learned more about Irish culture and society from Tom than I ever could have researched on my own!). I highly recommend My Ireland Tour. I know I will cherish memories of this tour and be wishing I was “on that N17, stone walls and the grass is green” for years to come.

The best way to visit Scotland and Ireland is with My Ireland tours and especially with Paddy O’Farrell. His knowledge of names, places and dates wide and accurate. We loved the stories and the banter he had with us and the other travellers

My recent 14 day Ireland tour was all I had hoped for and more. We had a fun, informative and enjoyable trip thanks to our tour guide Micheal whose expert knowledge was incredible. All our accommodations were excellent and the planned activities were varied and enjoyable. I would highly recommend this small group tour, we had 26 in our group on a spacious comfortable coach.

August 2024 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
We were on the Iconic Scotland/Ireland Tour in July 2024. Our driver/tour guide was Pat Prendergast. He was wonderful and a wealth of knowledge! We had a small group of 12 people which made it easy to get to know everyone. Scotland and Ireland are the most beautiful countries I have visited. The places we visited were on my bucket list. We plan to come back in 2 years and see many of the things we couldn't see on this trip. I think the only thing we would have done differently would be to order off the regular restaurant menus or visit local pubs when available to experience more of the local flavors. Thank you for a wonderful experience. I would highly recommend.

Though my planned itinerary was blown up when my friend with whom I was traveling come down with COVID, Catriona, our contact at My Ireland Tours, and our driver/guide Joe were superb in adjusting everything to allow us to salvage some time in Cork before we headed back to the US. I would recommend them for customizing your tour of the country.

August 2024 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
Our group of 12 from Augusta, Ga joined a small group(26)14 Day Iconic Tour of Ireland in August. It was an absolutely incredible experience thanks to our fabulous tour guide Don O'Donoghue, who was a wealth of knowledge on the history of Ireland, as well as sharing personal stories and hilarious anecdotes. We enjoyed the relaxed pace of the tour that allowed us to see many of the gorgeous sites and sights of Ireland without feeling overwhelmed. The accommodations and meals were lovely, as well as having most of our excursions included. This tour was the absolute best trip I have ever taken, and I highly recommend My Ireland Tours.
Laura McSpirit
August 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
I went on this tour with my two amazing sisters. It was everything we expected and more! Our bus driver Garey was amazing, so informative and knowledgeable about every place we drove through and the sites we visited. The other folks on the tour were wonderful as well. We stayed in really beautiful hotels which included breakfast. Note though, not all hotels had AC, made for a few uncomfortable nights, especially when the windows don't open all the way for safety reasons. Highly recommend extending your Ireland Tour a few days before or after so you can explore Dublin on your own for a few days with no schedules. The schedules were great, but we like to do some of our own exploring. One aspect of the trip I was not the fondest of, we ate dinner every night in the hotel we were staying at. (Except for the last night when we went to a dinner and show, which was amazing) I've done other tours, several, and it is nice to venture out beyond the hotel to eat and explore other dining experiences. I understand the bus driver can only drive a certain amount of hours per day/week, but there are other ways to get around. The local pubs and restaurants are wonderful and really allow you to get immersed in the culture. When at the hotels we were often seated in separate dining rooms for breakfast and dinner away from the other guests. It felt very cold, despite the wonderful company we had with us. The best day we had food wise, was when we had lunch at a quaint B&B. Our hostess, Greta made a wonderful, homemade buffet for everyone to enjoy. Traditional Irish food and enough food to feed a small army. I wish she made all of our meals. I would most definitely recommend this tour, just don't expect much with your dining experience.
C McManus
August 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
My husband and I highly recommend My Ireland Tour! We just returned from the 10 Day Scenic Ireland Tour and had a wonderful time. Our driver/tour guide, Garey was so professional, detailed and fun! My Ireland Tour doesn't totally fill up their tour buses, so there was more than enough room for everyone. Additionally, the bus was very clean and had wifi. The hotels were nice and the breakfasts were excellent. The dinner options varied at the hotels. We saw the beautiful countryside of Ireland and took some interesting tours. For the price, we'd highly recommend My Ireland Tour!
Tony Valle
August 2024 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
On a scale of 1-10, our 14- Day iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour was an 11. If you are planning a visit/vacation to Ireland, My Ireland Tour is the company to choose. Every detail of the trip has been meticulously planned. Everything from the bus, hotels, meals, destinations... and most importantly our driver, Don O'Donoghue was outstanding. Don's knowledge of Ireland and his attention to every detail is what made the trip a true vacation, an experience of a life time. Thank you Don (Driver) and Thank you Eric

Our driver/guide Joe O'Connor was fantastic, he got us where we needed to be at the right times and even brought us to places he knew that were on the way allowing us some amazing sights and views. He also recommended us fun activities to do at night that he personally enjoyed such as Celtic Steps which was a great show.

We just completed the 10day Deluxe Castle Tour. Our tour guide and driver Colm Clarke was exceptional. The accommodations were fabulous! This is definitely the way to tour Ireland. So much to see and experience in the comfort of a spacious coach. Breakfasts and dinners included at these 5star resort hotels made it the well worth the price. We would definitely recommend this deluxe tour, the best way to travel!

From pick-up to drop-off everything was handled with the utmost of care and focus on our having a great experience.

I have not stopped thinking about Ireland and wanting to go back there since we returned from our tour in early July. From start to finish, the tour, tour guide, sites, accommodations, step-on guides and wealth of information provided made for a fantastic first trip to Ireland. Our tour guide, Peter Kelly, was funny and charming and full of interesting information for our group. The hotels were lovely and we visited so many interesting and historic locations. This is a wonderful company and I highly recommend it. Can't wait to do another tour with My Ireland Tour!

We had an amazing 2 week private trip through Scotland and Ireland arranged by My Ireland Tour. Everything from the hotels/castles booked, to the tours arranged, to the vehicle provided everything was top notch. Our driver/guide, Charles, went above and beyond to make sure we had a great vacation. He was knowledgeable and professional and his little stories about some of the places we visited made it so memorable.

I did the 6-day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour and Harry was a great driver and tour guide! He was super entertaining and kept us on schedule so we could maximize our time at all our stops. The tour itself was jam packed with cool sites and drives, and it was really nice to only have to move hotels once in the middle of the tour. I really feel I got a great overview of a large chunk of the Republic of Ireland and got to see so many highlights of the country.
Rick Miller
August 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
My wife and I very much enjoyed the 10 day Iconic Ireland tour in late July with a wonderful group of fellow visitors and the engaging, charming and hard-working driver-guide, Brian Treanor. Brian is a proud Irishman with intimate knowledge of Irish history which he deftly combined with a warm sense of humor that had us all laughing as we traveled about the country. Sites were fantastic, hotels were top notch and the food was most satisfying. Tremendous value!

We had a fabulous trip with My Ireland Tours. We took an eight person tour, all women in my family. Lorraine was our guide and she took very special care of us giving us lots of good information, making a few little adjustments as needed or as wanted. The extra attention to detail that Lorraine provided made our trip more than pleasant. Every hotel we stayed in was comfortable and in a good location. Favorite stops for us were Killarney and our overnight in Castle Kinnity. I can’t say enough great things about this tour in this tour company. Catriona was great at helping us plan our tour and customizing it to our needs. I would definitely recommend this company and our tour guide Lorraine, to anyone and in fact I already have.

Loved our tour with Lorraine Dennany as our driver! She was full of history, Irish language and such a pleasure we want to adopt her into our family!

From the start, My Ireland Tour was a great experience. Their customer service team was very communicative and responded to our inquiries. Seamus was a fantastic driver who was so knowledgeable about Ireland and the areas we were traveling. The bus was comfortable and we LOVED that there were less people on the bus than its capacity. The hub and spoke 6-day tour was a great introduction to Ireland. Would absolutely join My Ireland Tour again to see more of Ireland and Scotland.
Sean Emerson
August 2024 • 6 Day Iconic Scenes
Our guide, Harry Fisher, was awesome. We did the 6-day tour of Ireland. Somehow, we managed to see most of the country in that time. Harry was very informative and entertaining the whole time and really took care of us. We wish we could have had more time at each stop, like in Galway or Killarney, but otherwise it was a great trip. I would definitely recommend this tour for someone who wants to see all of Ireland in a week.

What a great trip we had! My Ireland Tours 6-day tour was amazing. There was something for everyone. Very nice airport pickup and offered post tour drop off options for either Shannon or Dublin airport. Tour was packed with fun and Interesting stops, wonderful descriptions and storytelling We toured Ireland in a comfortable & clean bus equipped with USB ports for phone charging. The hotel accommodations were good with breakfasts. We appreciated the fact that the itinerary had us changing hotels just twice during the 6-day tour. Corresponding to each day of travel. Most importantly our tour guide Seamus, was kind, informative with great service and professionalism. Highly recommend as this was definitely one of the best trips weve ever been on!!>

August 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
Great Trip!!! We did the 10 day Ireland adventure and we couldn’t have been more pleased. Our driver, Brian Treanor, was excellent. He knew everything and was so helpful and entertaining. He was happy to answer any questions and gave us time to see things on our own. We actually saw more as he stopped along the way to show us some additional places. The last night after our final meal together and show, we sang our way back to the hotel. Well worth the money as the breakfast and dinners were included, as well as 2 lunches. Only spent on souvenirs You won’t be disappointed!! Especially if you get lucky enough to be on Brian’s bus.

August 2024 • Ancient Ireland Tour
What a glorious trip - stunning scenery, beautiful weather, luxurious accommodations, and delicious food throughout! Our 8-day Ancient Ireland tour far exceeded my expectations. The pacing and the itinerary were perfect for our multigenerational group of eight. Our driver/guide Brian Treanor, was utterly delightful from start to finish. We were educated, entertained, and uplifted every step of the way thanks to Brian's vast knowledge of the cultural, historic, and environmental aspects of the Emerald Isle. The Ballynahinch Castle and Cahernane House Hotel were idyllic places to call home for two nights each. I wholeheartedly recommend My Ireland Tours based on the magical experience we had in July 2024.

We were very fortunate to only have 12 people on our bus. It was very comfortable and easy to get to know them. Our bus driver was outstanding considering the small roads he navigated and the large bus we were on. The places we visited and accommodations were awesome. A couple of things is I would have preferred more time in St. Andrews and Inverness. The time there was a short. The Atlantic byway was my favorite.

We did the 10 day iconic scenes of Ireland tour, and it was absolutely phenomenal. Our tour guide, Brian T, was amazing. If you’re thinking about going to Ireland, use this tour group, you will not be disappointed. We had plenty of time to do things on our own, and didn’t feel rushed during the tour. The hotels on the tour were clean, and accommodating. The food was wonderful, and we never left a meal hungry. It was an overall wonderful experience.
Judy Hurley
August 2024 • Historic Irish Castle Tour
My sister and I have just returned from our 7 day Historic Castle Tour and let me just say, 'don't walk….RUN' to book this trip! From start to finish it was exceptional. Rain was forecasted for most days but our amazing tour guide, Tom Lavin, called in a few favors from up above and we were blessed with the most delightful weather throughout with the exception of a few raindrops while we were en route. We met Tom at the Dublin airport early in the morning. He greeted us with a smile and was kind and pleasant. When we arrived at our hotel Tom worked some magic and got us checked into our rooms early so we could freshen up then later explore the streets of Dublin. The next morning Tom reviewed the itinerary for the day as he did each morning. As we set out for the Epic Irish Emigration Museum Tom skillfully maneuvered the bus around the busy streets of Dublin while highlighting attractions, monuments and sharing some history along the way. After exploring the museum we made our way to the Guinness Storehouse Brewery and sipped on a complimentary pint of lager before heading to Kinnitty Castle nestled in the foothills of the Slieve Bloom mountains which would accommodate us for the night. On day three we toured the infamous Rock of Cashel and enjoyed a traditional farmhouse luncheon outside of Kilkenny. Greta, our gracious host, gave us a demonstration class on the making of her traditional home baked scones. From there we toured Kilkenny Castle and roamed the city streets before heading back to Kinnitty Castle for the night. Next off to Clifton, graced with another beautiful sunny day, to experience the majesty of the Cliffs of Moher. Oh what a sight to see! Abbeyglen Castle accommodated us for the next two nights. There we were wined, dined and entertained by the Castle owners who shared the history of the Castle at a champagne reception each evening. The accommodations, food and service were exceptional and we truly felt pampered. Following was a self guided tour of the historic Kylemore Abbey in the heart of the Connemara Mountains. We strolled along the expansive trail system which took us to impeccably manicured Victorian Gardens before seeing the splendor of the castle and grounds. There were many stops and sights seen along the way, some planned and others spontaneous. Tom had a few surprises for us which were very much appreciated. From pristine shores to vivid green landscape dotted with livestock, the views were breathtaking. Dublin City was our final destination. The group passed on a tour of the Pearce Lyons Distillery so we could pick up a few gifts in Dublin and rest up for the grande finale, dinner and entertainment at the Merry Ploughboy Pub. There we sampled delicious epicurean dights , sipped on spirits and were treated to hours of live traditional music and dancing. A tour guide can make or break a trip and we have Tom Lavin to thank for making our experience both memorable and enjoyable. Throughout the tour he skillfully navigated the narrow winding roadways while sharing great insight into Irish history, current events, family life politics and personal stories about growing up in a three generation household. He explained how land in Ireland is cherished, coveted and preserved which was evident by how clean, manicured and virgin the countryside is. I particularly appreciated Tom’s dry sense of humor. He is quiet and soft spoken but witty and quick with hysterical rebuttal. Did we laugh! The tour and attractions were icing on the cake. Tom Lavin WAS the cake!!! Thank you Tom for keeping us safe, happy and in stitches throughout!!!

My dad and I took the 6 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour in June 2024 with Seamus as our guide. Everything was wonderful and Seamus made us feel like we were a part of his family. The hotels were great and the amount of free time versus guided time was appropriately balanced. Seamus was hilarious and incredibly knowledgeable about Ireland and every place we went to. The itinerary that was sent to us a week before our trip was well laid out and followed thoroughly. There were no surprises. We are considering a trip to Scotland and would definitely use My Ireland Tour again should we decide to go.

My husband and I just came back from the wonderful 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. Our driver and guide was Don O’Donoghue. Don was easy going and funny while being informative. His experience helped us gain early entry into many of the sites. We had a chance to walk around and sightsee on our own many days. Having breakfast and dinner included was beneficial. However, the wait time for dinner was usually long. The hotels were nice and most were well located. Just a brief walk into town to enjoy music and drinks at the pub. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tour.

My father & I recently travelled with My Ireland Tour for a 10-Day Luxury Castle Tour and it exceeded both of our expectations. From the beginning, Shannon was easy to work with and very helpful as we booked our trip, providing excellent suggestions for days prior to and following our trip. We believe our tour guide, Tom L, must be the best in all of Ireland! He is an excellent driver - demonstrating great skills on narrow and corkscrew roads! He was very informative sharing not only history, but also current stories to help us learn about people’s daily lives…and I will never forget about the Humble Spuds! Tom has a great sense of humor, making our trek enjoyable. And we know how much work he did behind the scenes to ensure all of us and our belongings were well taken care of and safe. The tour schedule was wonderful. At first we were concerned it would be too much, but as we were wrapping up, we didn’t want it to end! The accommodations were luxurious, the staff very welcoming & fun. The sites were beautiful and fun - castles, cathedrals, sheep, and cows - and we learned a lot of history. Our tour group was so much fun. There were only 17 of us, which allowed us to get to know each other and enjoy many laughs from inside jokes along the way. We also had 2 couples get engaged while we were on tour. I don’t think we would have had the same experience if our group was large. Thank you to Tom and My Ireland Tour for a fantastic experience for my father & I. We loved Ireland and will treasure our new memories.

July- 2024. Just returned from the 10 Day Iconic Tours of Ireland and it was an incredible experience. Our guide and driver, Don O’Donahugue kept the tour lively while providing information, humour, and pointing out the sights. The iconic scenes were well-chosen and there were interests for everyone. The pace was well-planned- providing enough time to see each attraction while allowing time for all guests to chose to rest, shop, or see other local attractions at various places. This was my first coach tour and I have a feeling it will be hard to match the high standards set by My Ireland Tours. I would recommend the experience to any who want to visit The Republic of Ireland.

My husband and I loved the Deluxe Castle Tour. The accommodations, food, thorough tours, landscapes (from the ocean, farmland, mountains, cliffs), the regular stops, historical information from our guide, … It was impeccable, and I would recommend it to everyone. We wanted this once in a lifetime trip to cover as much of Ireland as possible, and this tour and our guide, Tom Lavin, accomplished just that. The bus was extremely comfortable, the random stops broke up the ride, and allowed us to stretch our legs and experience all the glory of Ireland. Covering more than 1200 miles without being overwhelmed or exhausted was excellently planned out on this tour. We also appreciated the small group setting that provided peace, friendships, and comfort. Also, there were plenty of evenings available to personally explore the quaint downtowns and culture on our own.

I just returned from the 10 Day Iconic Ireland tour and thoroughly enjoyed it. I appreciated the pace of the trip. There was enough touring and down time combined to explore. I didn’t feel rushed at any point. We had plenty of time to visit each site. Our tour guide Don was funny and did an excellent job sharing information about Ireland. The communication leading up to the trip was very helpful. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tour to my friends and family. Thanks for a great trip!

My wife and I have just returned from our 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. Every escorted tour can be made or ruined by the guide. In our case our driver/guide Don O'Donoghue was both an amusing and very informative guide and an excellent driver. It was a great trip. The itinerary was unfailingly interesting and there was always adequate time to see the sights. The 'full Irish' hotel breakfasts could sustain you for most of the day. Aside from breakfast, Irish cooking in general tends to be under spiced and overcooked, but you don't go to Ireland for the cuisine. A word to the wise, pack for every kind of weather. It can change from hour to hour or location to location. All in all a highly recommendable tour.

This was the Best Tour I have taken in my life. No kidding it was Great. Our Coach driver and Tour guide Paddy O Farrell was incredible. His knowledge about Scotland and Ireland was astounding and insightful. He went above and beyond and was understanding and had all of us laughing and becoming friends. None of my previous tours have come close to this one in friendships , trust and feeling at home when we weren't at home. Our group was special because this tour was special and that honor goes to Paddy for making this a Wonderful experience for all of us involved. I have already recommended My Ireland Tours to several friends and people I work with. My Ireland Tours your ambassador Paddy is a Great Talent as a Coach Driver , Tour Guide and a great asset to your company. Paddy O Farrell thank you again for taking care of my wife and I and all our fellow vacationers on our Tour. We hope to see you again in the Future.

Wow! Our My Ireland Tour of Iconic Scenes of Ireland was absolutely the best. Think beautiful, informative, comfortable and fun. Ireland and Northern Ireland are so lovely with each day bringing something spectacular to see or do. Information and commentary was provided by Don, our travel guide and driver. His expertise, care and concern and, most of all, sense of humor was the standout bonus of our trip. I could go on about the comfortable accommodations and good food (and drink) but the bottom line is two weeks with absolutely no worries and laughter more than once a day.

Our visit to Ireland was fantastic due to the great planning of My Ireland Tour. We had a wonderful time, made many memories seeing the points of interest that Ireland is well known for. Our driver/tour guide, Tony, was phenomenal! He was most personable, humorous and shared in-depth knowledge about Irish history. Also, quite skilled at driving the tour bus on the many narrow roads. The tour bus was comfortable with plenty of room to spread out. All the hotel accommodations were comfortable, the breakfasts were hearty with a variety of food selections, the dinners were complete from starters to dessert. You did not leave the table hungry. The group of people on the tour soon became friends. By the end of the trip e-mail addresses were exchanged. We are looking forward to our next trip, it will be My Ireland Castle Tour. Thank you My Ireland Tour for making our trip to Ireland most memorable. Sincerely, Carolyn and Rick McConnell Sarver, Pa. USA

July 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
Pros: -Our 10 Day Iconic Tour was a great stress free way to see so much of Ireland -Our driver did a fantastic job of getting us to locations at the right times to miss crowds. We also felt like the amount of time at each stop was well planned. Long enough to enjoy, but not so long as to take away from other things. -We appreciated the down time in the evenings to use our time as we choose -The food was generally very good and there were great options to choose from. Dinner was always 3 courses. Breakfasts always had a great variety of hot and cold options -Hotels were clean, in great locations, and hotel staff was very kind. We felt we got a good value for our money. -Our driver found a great balance between sharing information and letting us enjoy the drive Cons: -Expect dinner to take a while. It wasn't uncommon to wait until 8:15pm or later for dessert after being seated at 6:30pm -Because it is rarely needed in Ireland, most of the hotels don't have AC. The ones that did were either on a timer or didn't seem to work well. Rooms did come with fans and windows can be opened slightly. However, especially because rooms didn't have top sheets (just comforters) it was often uncomfortable trying to sleep -We got home to find out we had Covid. Nothing My Ireland can do about it, but if you're traveling with a large group in a bus for 10 days, there's always a risk of disease spread.

We did an 8 day custom tour with My Ireland accompanied by family and friends. Everything was excellent, we saw and learned about all of the places we intended to see plus many additional sights. Our Driver/Guide, Ben S. was fun, informative and patient, we were in more than capable hands. All of the hotels were beautiful as was Ireland itself. If they did this type of tour in other countries we’d definitely use them again and again.

We loved our tour with My Ireland Tour! We were picked up at the Dublin airport and were in the very capable hands of our driver and tour guide Eamonn (the most amazing bus driver on the planet!) Our tour included some amazing sites throughout our 10 day tour. The hotels and food were all top notch.
Margo Kohlhoff
July 2024 • Deluxe Castles Tour
What a great tour! Tom Lavin was our guide while we were on tour (we did the Castle tour), and he went above and beyond to make sure our group was comfortable, happy and informed about each place we visited. He shared personal stories from growing up in Ireland which added to the history, especially between Ireland and Northern Ireland. Unfortunately, we missed our inbound flight due to a very long delay by American Airlines and had to catch up with the tour a day late. Tom arranged for a driver to meet us at the airport and deliver us to where the tour was. That was extremely helpful as it took all the stress off of us. We had a relatively small group of 17 people, of all ages. I think our youngest member was 14 and our oldest was 90! However, no matter what the age, at every place we visited, there was plenty to see and options to sit out if you didn't want to (or couldn't) climb stairs, etc. Each day, Tom had a little treat for us depending on where we were that day. For example, we were by the seaside and he had us try dried seaweed! Then some crisps; some chocolate; AND some moonshine (gasp!). The locations we visited were beautiful and we had great weather the entire time we were there (I know, we got lucky). The accommodations were so nice! It's so cool to stay in castles built in the 16 and 1700's. Just know that some hotels do not have A/C. While this isn't really a problem as it isn't very warm, when you are in your room it can tend to be a bit stuffy if the windows are closed, but each place gave us a fan if we needed it. The one thing I will say is that you do spend some time on the bus so make sure you bring a book or download something to watch on your iPad - or use the time to take a nap like a lot of us did! I have gone on another land tour in Scotland with a different company and we moved hotels every day so that we didn't spend so much time on the bus. That was a total pain packing up each day, and it was kind of nice to be in the same place for more than a day to just explore the grounds - the gardens are spectacular everywhere. The service in the hotels is also outstanding. As a Floridian who isn't used to eating food from 'across the pond', it took a little getting used to but every night there were plenty of choices and they did make a menu for one of the guests in our group who was a vegetarian. We quickly made friends with everyone in the group and took turns sitting with everyone and getting to know them. By the end of the tour, we had so many jokes and laughs with people who were strangers 10 days before! Ireland is just beautiful and green, and the people there could not have been nicer. The only thing I will say is that it would have been nice to have one day 'off' - like a sea day on a cruise - to golf or enjoy a day at one of the hotel spas. Some of our guys did get in a quick 9 holes before dinner one night, and I skipped the last day of the tour since we had been to Dublin 3 times already in past. My girlfriend and I stayed at the hotel, and I took advantage of their Falconry Experience. My girlfriend spent some time in the spa and we had lunch and cocktails and just relaxed. That's my one and only (not even) negative comment. Other than that, it was an amazing trip with great memories and new friends. Would most definitely book another trip with My Ireland Tour.

I recently did the Luxury Castle Tour in July 2024 with friends and absolutely loved it! Tom Lavin was our driver/guide and he was fantastic. I had never been on a coach tour and wasn't sure I would like being on a huge bus with a lot of strangers. I could not have been more wrong. Everyone was super friendly, fun and wonderful to be with; it was a great group of people from the US and Canada. The tour itself was incredible. We covered 1300 miles, stayed in fabulous hotels and castles and experienced amazing locations and special places that far exceeded my expectations. In addition to the amazing castles, the Cliffs of Moher and the Blarney Castle were my favorites, but be prepared for uphill hikes and many steps. It was totally worth it. Loved Derry and all its crazy history and the super fun town of Galway. The terrain is gorgeous - so green! From rolling hills to high mountain vistas of lochs and fjords, it was incredible. This is truly a tour not to be missed!

My Ireland Tour was perfect for our first trip to Ireland! From the initial planning stages with Eric to our daily travels with Jerome, everything was timely, well organized, well done, and just as advertised. Jerome was insightful, most thoughtful, had a great sense of humor, and took such good care of us. He was especially great with our boys, who just adored him. The mini coach was also first class and a perfect fit for our group. Highly, highly recommend My Ireland Tour. Thank you so much!

My family (mom, dad, two sisters, and 12-year-old niece) and I just got back from the 10-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour and highly recommend it! Prior to booking our trip, Shauni was friendly and quick to respond to emails, answering all the additional questions we had. Our driver-guide Don O Donoghue was great! He was informative, funny, and a skilled driver of the coach. The days were well-organized and provided the right amount of time at each attraction listed on the itinerary. When timing worked in our favor, Don was able to add a couple of extra photo ops for us. The hotel accommodations, overall, were pleasing. The included meal options were varied enough and delicious each day. We were also able to request a kid's menu! However, be prepared to have no minifridges in the room and be patient with the lengthiness of dinners, especially when other tour groups are present! What my family appreciated the most about My Ireland Tour was the flexibility: as long as we communicated with our driver-guide with enough notice, we were able to veer from the group for a portion of time to visit nearby family in the areas we traveled. If you're looking for a leisurely and comfortable way to travel around Ireland, this is the trip for you!

From the initial contact with Catriona in the office to the final goodbye to Philip Butterly, our outstanding driver and guide, this trip exceeded expectations in many ways. We were able to work with Catriona to create a custom itinerary for our group of 14 and from the get-go she listened to what we wanted and incorporated everything we asked for, making suggestions based on her expertise. Our ten day trip was busy, we had two nights in three cities, which was great. There was a fair bit of time on the coach, but it was comfortable and plenty big for us to spread out. The company was on top of every little detail to make our time amazing. We chose to explore Dublin on our own and started and ended with a night there so we could do our own thing since the city is easily accessible. That let us devote the time with Philip to other cities including Kilkenny, Kinsale, Killarney, Cobb, Galway and all the in betweens. The group’s fave area was Kinsale….thanks My Ireland Tour!

We returned last week from our 10 Day Iconic Tour of Ireland and we had an amazing time. Damian McKenna led the tour and he truly made the experience for us. His passion for Ireland was noticed as soon as we arrived through customs. The accommodations were fantastic and the events/sites were all truly amazing. We met some wonderful couples and already look forward to returning sometime in the future to visit Scotland and Northern Ireland. We will definitely inquire about Damian.

The tour was relaxing, extremely interesting and a chance in a life time experience. Highly recommend My Ireland Tours, David, and the Deluxe Castle Tour. Everyone ask us what was our favorite site on the tour…and our response is that all 22 sites were fascinating and memorable. Highly recommend.

My wife and I celebrated our 20th anniversary with the Deluxe Irish Castle Tour. We had an incredible trip! We arrived in Dublin a day early and did our own thing - but it was very easy to meet up with the group at the first hotel the next day. David Breen was our driver/guide - we could not imagine a better guide. He was a wealth of knowledge about Ireland’s history, geography, and culture. And he was just an all around great guy. This was our first visit to Ireland, and this was a great way to see a large part of the country, taking in some amazing natural scenery and some amazing castles along the way. Breakfasts and dinners were included each day - all were excellent, though we did do dinner on our own a couple of evenings just to mix things up and enjoy some “us” time. The lodging was very nice as well. I also need to say that our walking tour of Derry in Northern Ireland with Rodan as our guide was terrific - he was an amazing guide! And we had simply amazing weather all week as well. Lastly, Shannon was very helpful answering our questions about the trip before we left. We would definitely recommend this tour. My Ireland Tour made our first trip to Ireland very memorable - we will look forward to going back someday!

4.5 stars. Driver/Guide was wonderful. Timeline a little rigid which with a group of 8 was meant to be more flexible. Most hotels outstanding with the exception of the Brooks. Great for the self guiding traveler. I would have preferred a credit towards meals versus fixed/limited menu at remote accommodations.

We had a fabulous time on our 8 day tour of the Republic of Ireland. Kristel curated a perfect trip for our 7 family members— noting our preferences and adding other suggestions. Our guide Pat O'Gara was fun, knowledgeable and had tons of great suggestions for additional activities and places to eat or see trad music. Our accommodations were gorgeous and the countryside and towns were stunning. If the pre planned group trips don't work for your schedule or interests, definitely ask about a bespoke tour. My Ireland Tours made it so easy and affordable. (Other Ireland and US based companies I tried were not as flexible or prohibitively expensive) We are already thinking ahead about a tour of Scotland with My Irish Tours!

My July 2024 trip to Ireland was booked through My Ireland Tour and was well planned and organized. Everything from the pickup at the airport to all of the events on the week-long itinerary to the drop off at the airport at the end of the tour. Each day of the tour was planned out to fill our days, while still allowing adequate time to spend on our own at each venue visited. The breakfasts and dinners provided each day of the trip were a wonderful way to begin and end each days’ activities. During our travels each day, our tour guide was very informative as he walked us all through the history of Ireland. I am excited to share my trip memories with friends and family. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tours as an excellent way to experience some of the rich history of Ireland, especially if you are visiting for the first time.

My Ireland Tour gave us a trip of a lifetime. To give you some reasons why I would book with them again - would be very long, but I wanted to share some reasons why I will be recommending this company to everyone I know. #1. Pat, our tour guide and bus driver, was so professional! His knowledge of history, legends, geography, and current affairs made him a walking encyclopedia with an Irish accent. He beautifully wove stories together as he skillfully drove the bus. Additionally, his years of experience made the tour run smoothly -- he knew a cruise ship would be arriving and Blarney Castle would be extra busy, so he arranged for us to get there before the crowd -- this slight 30 minute adjustment made our time there calm and peaceful. Additionally, Pat is just a wonderful person. I miss him already. #2. Hotels (some of which were castles) were amazing! They booked great accommodations for the entire trip (which can be challenging since our 14-day tour took us to many cities). #3. Nice mixture of activities and sites to see -- everything from a sheep herding demonstration, historic castles, churches, geological locations such as the Giant's Causeway and Cliff of Moher, small towns, graffiti walls in Belfast, ringing church bells, and of course drinking beer -- there was always something new to discover, and I was never bored. #4. Customer service was outstanding - from the email updates prior to leaving the USA, to answering emails when our flight from the US was canceled pushing us back 2 days, to overall planning, the customer service was great. My list could go on and on, but hopefully this helps gives you some insight into why I really enjoyed my trip to Ireland and Scotland.

We did a 5 day private tour of Northern Ireland with stops in Belfast, Derry, Sligo and many off the beaten path choices along the way. Our tour was specifically curated to us and we were able to see everything we wanted. Our driver, who wasn' t as familiar with northern ireland as the south, still managed to get us everywhere we needed to be with some fun craic along the way. Was a great experience.

My girlfriend and I booked the Deluxe Castle Tour. Accommodations were fantastic and we were able to see a LOT of Ireland in 10 days. Our guide Tom Lavin was a wealth of information and his driving skills were impeccable. Probably our only 'complaint' was the amount of time spent on the bus traveling from place to place. We opted out of one days touring to stay in Killarney and enjoy the area for the day. And, of course, the weather. Be prepared for rain daily even during 'summer' in Ireland. We had no idea it would be that wet. Take appropriate clothing and layering no matter the time of year. The Irish people are incredibly friendly, the isle is super clean, and the landscapes are divine.

I recommend My Ireland Tour as a company to book for a interesting and enjoyable tour of Ireland. I took the 14 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour. We covered the entire country (north and south) and saw many sights. The most impressive part of the tour was our tour guide and driver, Michael Coleman. He was very knowledgeable and imparted a sense of history throughout the tour. He always looked out for his passengers and helped us all along the way. I celebrated my birthday during the tour and Michael made it special by arranging a special birthday cake at the hotel on the day of my birthday. He also took us to a numbers of out-of-the-way sights not included in the prearranged tour. These made it extra special.

We had an amazing trip with our guide David. We loved having a schedule and felt that we were able to see a good portion of this beautiful country. David took us to some spots that we never would have found on our own. Being able to relax and look out the windows of our private coach without having to worry about driving or where we needed to go added so much enjoyment to the experience. With a group of 6, having an itinerary was essential. I would highly recommend this company and David to anyone. What a great trip!!

My Ireland Tour was the best company to use to travel around Ireland. From planning to booking to the bus tour everything was planned with great attention to detail with informative and friendly staff. Our tour guide/driver Michael Coleman was amazing! From his extensive history and knowledge of Ireland and all the fun folklore he shared with us made all the places we visited extra special. It was my Dad's birthday during the trip and he made arrangements with the hotel to have a special dessert served on his birthday. He also took us to some great hidden gems along the countryside that weren't even on our itinerary. For anyone looking to get an extensive tour of Ireland and to learn all about the history and stories that make up this magical green country this is the tour to take!

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our recent tour of Ireland (8 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland). This was our first 'bus tour' and we were pleasantly surprised how much fun it was. Since they cap the group at 26 people, everyone can spread out and get their own seat. It was a perfect size to get to know everyone. The itinerary was well thought out including so many great sites and experiences. Hotels and meals were all enjoyable and conveniently located to explore at the end of a day. Our tour guide and driver, John Mulryan truly made our trip wonderful! He is so knowledgeable about Ireland and does such a great job of sharing Irish history, folklore, & culture with his fun sense of humor. He was so thoughtful and made the extra effort to get to know everyone and make sure their experience was the best! (He is also an excellent driver. We always felt safe.)

Our tour with my Ireland tours was beyond our expectations We saw so much more than was on our itinerary From the breathtaking scenery to the sites we visited We were more than pleased with our driver Maurice Kelly who made our holiday much more enjoyable He was knowledgeable about the history of Ireland, places we toured and was a great driver! He also treated us to a 99 and other treats We never dreamt we would have so much fun with our driver and miss his wisdom,guidance and personality He went above and beyond We would definitely recommend My Irish Tours and Maurice Kelly to friends

My Ireland Tour staff were very responsive throughout planning and visit. We chose the Ancient Ireland 8 day mini-group tour. I would suggest spending a few days in Dublin before your tour begins. It's a great city for walking, with many sites to explore. The Ancient Ireland tour involves a fair amount of time on the road, but the views are spectacular. Sean O'Sullivan was a wonderful driver and personable guide. He did a fabulous job catering to the varied interests of our group, offering suggestions for different activities, and educating us about the areas we toured. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to explore Ireland.

My 2 daughters and I arrived home a few days ago, and there are not enough adjectives to describe our amazing tour (June 30 - July 7). Itinerary was great for us first timers; accommodations were beyond our expections; transportation was very comfortable, and our driver was fantastic! On arrival, we were picked up by a substitute driver (Peter) as our assigned driver was delayed. Everything was perfect and we met our driver, Mike Taylor, at one of our first stops. He went above and beyond for us....even had drinks and snacks for us to enjoy on our drives. He was very knowledgeable and gave us great suggestions as to where to eat at each location! Will definitely book with My Ireland Tours again!

We just returned home from our 10 day Iconic Tour. What a wonderful time we had! Everything was planned out and taken care of for us, the accommodations were lovely and the food was fantastic. Kudos to our wonderful driver/guide, George. He was knowledgeable about the sites and their history. We had a group of 12 and he was so patient with us. I would recommend this company to anyone. It was everything we hoped for and the trip of a lifetime.

8-day Iconic Tour. What an amazing tour of Ireland!!! It was everything I thought and more. Hotels were very clean and comfortable. Everything was well organized. Harry Fisher, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor! I highly recommend My Ireland Tour. They hit all the wonderful spots of Ireland and then some. I highly recommend this company!!! Thank you for a trip of a lifetime!!!

My husband and I have just returned from the 14-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour . . . FABULOUS!!! From the Giant's Causeway to the Cliffs of Moher to the spectacular songs and dancing at the Merry Ploughboy Pub . . . we loved it all! Our driver/guide, Cathal Clarke, transported us back in time as we travelled around the emerald isle enlightening us all about Ireland's history, past and present. We have gained a new love and respect for Ireland! As well as the knowledge that driving in Ireland is not for the faint of heart! We were never so glad 'not' to be touring ourselves around. The accommodations along the way were excellent as were the breakfasts and suppers. And the local guides who took us around the different historical sites were much appreciated for their knowledge and humor! For a fun-filled, stress-free tour of Ireland, My Ireland Tour is tops!

We had the please of not only seeing a magnificent country but also of being driven around Ireland by George Murray. For those lucky enough to have toured with George you will already appreciated both his knowledge of Ireland and his passion for Ireland. Great bloke, great tour, great people on it so I would highly recommend.

July 2024 • Deluxe Castles Tour
We joined a Deluxe Irish Castle with with our guide/driver Garey Goddard. The tour was well organised and comprehensive. Garey was excellent, very knowledgeable, with terrific insights into every destination we visited. He was also a first class driver and had a dry sense of humour. We also met very good local guides, particularly on our walking tour of Derry City. The Castle accommodation in beautiful manicured estates, was 5 star. This was our first trip to Ireland and we enjoyed the experience very much. A highlight was the visit to historic Kylemore Abbey.

My family and I had a wonderful experience on our recent tour of Ireland (8 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland). The itinerary was thoughtfully constructed to include beautiful scenery, authentic cultural experiences, and significant historical sites. Throughout the tour, the accommodations were comfortable and convenient, and the included meals were delicious. Our tour guide, John, made for a top-notch experience owing to his sense of humor, insightful commentary, and his unfailing thoughtfulness and consideration.

An amazing 8-day tour of Ireland! What a trip! And My Ireland Tour is phenomenal! What a complete and wonderful visit to legendary places across Ireland. Our Guide/Driver Harry Fisher was SO informative, SO attentive to each and every one of us, SO entertaining and JUST the right humor to make the trip even more of a truly memorable occasion. Hotels were spot on, generous portions of food at all stops, comfortable bus for sure! WE had an amazing group (26) of travelers who added to the esprit de corps of the moment! I so enjoyed this trip and it will always be a truly happy memory for me.

We loved all of the places we visited and the meals were delicious at each restaurant. Catriona Ryan is an experienced tour coordinator and planned an incredible once in a lifetime trip at every step of the way.

July 2024 • 6 Day Iconic Scenes
I enjoyed our time with My Ireland Tour. Our driver was fantastic and the selected tour stops were great. We really enjoyed the small village experiences, the scenic drives and stops to enjoy the views, and natural areas. Less time in the city and more time in the countryside to see natural sites, castles, waterfalls, etc... would be recommended. The only significant downside was available transportation was part of our expense from arriving and to the departing airport and this only applied to the the tour dates. Many of the people in our group arrived early and or stayed later. Providing transportation or a voucher to cover the cost of transportation from the arriving and departing airports around the city or very near to the respective airports should be included or a discount applied if arrival and departure transportation would not be needed. Otherwise, we had a great time!

July 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
Private 10-day tour. We had an absolutely fabulous time in Ireland. We started in Dublin then were driven to the sights and overnight stays in Galway, Killarney, Cork and back to Dublin. The hotels were all top notch, 5-star hotels and included excellent breakfasts. Each hotel was centrally located and within easy walking distance to shopping, pubs, and historical sites. Ger, our driver and guide, really made our trip special. He was kind, intuitive, and adjusted our itinerary to meet our interests and needs. He provided a detailed oral history of Ireland and answered all of our questions about the country, its people, history, and landscape. Pre-travel, we requested several adjustments to our itinerary and Catriona was patient and accommodating. We wish we could take Ger with us on our next travel adventure. We would highly recommend My Ireland Tour!

July 2024 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
A childhood dream about visiting Ireland became a reality when we recently completed the 14-day, Iconic Scenes of Ireland itinerary with My Ireland Tours. From the moment we were warmly welcomed by our Guide/Coach Driver, Sean O Sullivan, we loved every minute of the trip. 23 adults occupied the modern coach affording plenty of space for each guest. The hotels were adequate, and their meal plans offered flexible choices. The tour’s circular path around the island offered spectacular scenery and access to beautiful historic buildings, stunning sites, and poignant landmarks. Sean was extraordinarily skilled at maneuvering the coach whilst entertainingly sharing historical, economic, social and political tales relevant to the route. His personable manner, attention to detail and sense of humor were adored. Our suggestions for improvements are to rethink 3 distillery visits, one or two would be ample, and to remove the stop at the Hazel Mountain Chocolate Factory. All in all, a remarkable tour that kindled many wonderful memories! Elodie and Elaine.

My husband and I just took the 14 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. We had a great time! In summary: good group of people who got along with everyone, very nice itinerary which covered all the highlights of both Ireland and Northern Ireland, excellent local guides, and a very skilled driver/guide, Cathal Clarke, who took us safely around the whole island, amazing all of us with his driving skills on the narrow country roads and in the busy cities. Cathal was extremely knowledgeable and taught us the history of Ireland from prehistoric to modern times. He also shared some anecdotes from his personal life, which gave us an idea of everyday life in Ireland. He had a great sense of humour and made all of us laugh, but also made sure that every one of us was well taken care of. I would definitely recommend My Ireland Tour to anyone!

We had an excellent 10 day/9 night castle tour. Our guide/driver, Ben Sullivan, was excellent. He was very knowledgeable and kind. We felt lucky we had such an excellent guide. It was so nice that we spent 2 days at each hotel (with the exception of the first night). The itinerary was just right, the hotels excellent and the food was great. It is a lot to coordinate all the details of these tours and My Ireland Tour and our guide pulled it off without any hiccups. We highly recommend My Ireland Tour.

Our driver/guide Cathal was amazing! So knowledgeable about Irish history and all the places we went. He was fun and truly made our trip so memorable. We loved being part of a smaller tour group, we all got to know each other well and formed lasting friendships. I also must commend the office team who made booking so easy and communication was excellent. We highly recommend My Ireland Tours.

We took the 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. I've been waiting to go to Ireland since I was a child, I was not disappointed! We loved every single day of this tour, even the morning it poured, loved it! Our driver/guide Garey G was phenomenal, I grew up reading everything about Ireland. Garey took us beyond the history books, beyond the iconic movies and brought us Ireland as it was and what it is today. You could picture yourself in that castle or that fort or even that “wee cottage”. The hotels were gorgeous, the breakfast buffet was delicious and plentiful, the meals at dinner were just long enough to get to know our fellow passengers and have many laughs, and who are now considered friends.The itinerary was jam-packed with Irelands' known tourist sites but, quite a few that were off the beaten track. I took over 1600 pictures! Can't wait to go back and try a different itinerary!! See you soon Ireland

Absolutely 5 stars, what an all around lovely trip! We were a group of 8 women and we could not have had more fun, there wouldn't have been chronologically possible. Every day was a new adventure and breathtaking view. So much history and knowledge, I just wish I could retain more. We did the deluxe castle tour and frankly I don't want to travel any other way from now on. We barely had to handle our bags and our tour guide Ben was top notch. He was so funny, smart and talented. Great voice and ability to remember lyrics. I might venture to say this was at least among the top 5 trips I have ever taken. ( I do travel a lot so...) The food, lodgings and amenities were phenomenal. I highly recommend this trip to anyone who is inquiring. Thank you all!!!

This was our first trip to Ireland and it was amazing. Our guide, Garey, was knowledgeable, friendly, and had a great sense of humor. He made great recommendations for things to do, places to eat, etc. at each of our stops where we were able to explore on our own as well as gave us history, fun facts and general background information for the various places along our route. Every day brought us a taste of what Ireland has to offer and we are looking forward to a day when we can return!

This was our second tour of Ireland but with a different company and this tour with My Ireland Tours was by far superior in so many ways. We took the 14 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour . The itinerary was perfect, our driver/guide Colm Clarke was exceptional and made the group feel as ease from day 1. Every day was filled with a mixture of Ireland history from Colm which was so interesting to listen to, a bit of music on the coach, our daily joke and so many laughs as a group. Colm went out of his way to make every day of our tour a good day and we cannot thank him enough for this. I couldn't think of anything that i would have liked to be different, it was just perfect. I will definitely be recommending My Ireland Tours to others.

My husband and I had a fantastic time on the 10 day Castle Tour! The group of 24 people was perfect. Ben Sullivan, our tour guide/driver was informative, organized and very entertaining. Local guides, accommodations and food were great. We saw and did more than we could have ever done on our own. It was one of the top tours we’ve ever been on! We love the beautiful country of Ireland and its friendly, people!
Jacob Pogoda
July 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
The tour was beyond all reckoning, a journey that took us into the heart of Ireland's rugged beauty and storied past. I feel grateful to have experienced Derry and locations other tours exclude. Colm, our guide, and driver, was a man who seemed cut from the very rock of his country. He knew the land as if it were an old friend, pointing out the best places to see, to breathe, to capture a moment. When I left behind a set of airpods in a hotel room, it was Colm who took it upon himself to see them returned. To those at My Ireland, I offer my thanks. The experience was unmarred and there is nothing I can say but that it was perfect in its way. Thank you.

This was my second trip with My Ireland tour and it did not disappoint. The company has thought of everything and it was a stress free trip. Accommodation, food and attractions were excellent, with a few things unexpected stops thrown into the itinerary. Our guide George was very professional and knowledgeable, giving us a the history of Ireland during our driving hours to round out our experience. A good mix of traveling with a group and also having time to explore on our own. Plenty of time at each stop, never felt rushed. We give this tour and company a 10 out of 10!

A really top class tour with a first class driver/guide who had a comprehensive knowledge of all the localities visited. Hotels used were excellent both in accommodation and meals (with one exception where the meals were meagre and the staff poorly supervised, otherwise would have given 5 stars)

The 8 day tour of Ireland was an absolutely perfect introduction to a very special country. Every single detail was well thought out and executed, making for a wonderful journey. The hotels, meals and transportation were excellent and, even with a couple of slight hiccups, My Ireland Tours made them up with special extra touches. Our driver/guide, Harry Fisher, was exceptional by providing so much knowledge about Irish history and culture everywhere we traveled. Our travel companions were wonderful too! Don't hesitate - sign up for a tour!

By far one of the best tours I have been on. The tour guide/driver, Seamus Keogh, was phenomenal! He was knowledgeable of not only culture, but had fun facts to share as well. He was accommodating, the bus was comfortable and our group loved spending our time with him. Thanks for a non-forgettable trip of a lifetime!
Cindy Strattman

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our 6-day Ireland tour. Seamus was personable, helpful, funny, and a font of information about the sites we visited. He was always clear with expectations for when we needed to be on the bus, ready to roll every morning, answered our questions fully and patiently, and obviously has a tremendous love for his country. We were amazed at his skillful and safe driving on the narrow, local roads and city streets, and especially when meeting other buses! If we were to have the opportunity for another tour with My Ireland Tours, we'd love to have Seamus as our guide!

For anyone who is a first-time traveler to Ireland, there is no better option that My Ireland Tour. The itinerary was nearly perfect, allowing us to visit more sites and see more of Ireland than we ever possibly could have on our own. The smaller size of the tour group offered a more intimate experience and inspired friendly connections with our fellow travelers, which was amazing for those of us who are more introverted. Our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful, connecting us with history, culture and experiences that we wouldn't have learned otherwise. From booking the trip to effective communication leading up to our visit to a wholly pleasing travel experience, I have absolutely nothing but positive things to say about My Ireland Tour. They went above and beyond every step of the way!

June 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
This was by far the most relaxing yet activity packed vacation we have ever experienced. Not only did our driver Seamus find us at the airport and contact us to make the trip into Dublin (our flight was rescheduled last minute), he also provided top notch service with a flair of humor and some very interesting insight in how life is around that part of Ireland. You can certainly read all the reviews about the wonderful and varied points of interest provided in this 6 Day tour of Ireland and believe how great they are. We were fortunate enough to miss all the bouts of rain and able to enjoy all of the sights. The days were organized with plenty of time to relax and also explore on your own as well as enjoy museums, natural sites and local tourists destinations. Seamus provided safe and timely transportation and always ensured his head count was accurate! He also let us in on some little known gems in the areas we visited. This was the perfect way for us to plan our trip to Ireland as we had many unknowns about where we would be in the work life and had very little time to plan an itinerary ourselves. My Ireland Tour provided a wonderful assortment of options and we will gladly be looking to use them again for future trips. Also, the choice of hotels for our stays were very comfortable and, boy, that breakfast! It has been almost a month since we left for our trip and we think about it and those we met on the trip fondly each day.

My Ireland Tours and Keith were there to promptly answer all my pre-trip questions. The 8 day tour was well designed with all details arranged for you with quality hotels, a nice pace, and all the highlights you travel to Ireland to see. There are no hidden costs. There can’t be a more knowledgeable, polite, eloquent, hard working, history buff than our driver/tour guide Harry Fisher. He was the highlight of my tour.

My Ireland Tour was a great experience! Keith was very thorough from booking a year in advance. Communication was key. I traveled with a group of 28 friends on a private bus with our own tour guide.Seamous was very knowledgeable and fun to be around. Your dad stayed with you at your hotel and took care of every detail. I would definitely feel comfortable booking with this group again.

Your tour guide makes all the difference in the world and our guide Damian was fantastic. He was a wealth of knowledge and trivia which rounded out the many stops and venues we visited. We did the iconic Scotland and Ireland tour, starting in late May to mid-June and it was everything you thought it would be and more. The venues in which we stayed were all first-rate, albeit several I wish we had stayed longer! The coach was comfortable and we had enough room to spread out if we wished. The seats had a charger for your phone or other devices and there was a lavatory on board, although there were frequent stops where restrooms were nearby. As you are basically covering a great deal of Ireland, there were several days which got long, but in order to make it from one evening's venue to another that couldn't be helped. Damian provided some 'treats' of some sort when we climbed back on the coach after seeing some of the sights...nice touch. Damian kept an eye on traffic etc. which managed us to beat the rush of other tours at some of the most visited sites. (After all who wants to wait in line for ever?) The breakfast and suppers at the venues were all very good, several were fantastic. You never went away hungry. I only wish that our arrival at some of the hotels could have been a wee bit earlier (We ALWAYS arrived at least an hour, if not more) in order to unwind a bit more before supper. I also would have like a little more time in the cities in the evenings to walk around a bit more, but with everything packed in, I understand the schedule they had to keep. Overall you can't go wrong, especially with a driver like we had. If we would decide to go back, this tour provided a great overview of what we would like to see in more depth. Thanks Damian for a great time. Keep your tractor's shiny!

My Ireland Tour is a spectacular company! I'd emailed in May 2023 for a June 2024 trip, and Kristel O'Connor became my tour planner. I'd never traveled and wanted to visit my grandmother's homeland. I had so many questions and ideas, and Kristel went above and beyond to answer everything and plan a wonderful and practical trip---if it hadn't been for Kristel, I would've been all over and aimless! We visited Dublin and had highlights at Trinity College (The Book of Kells! The Long Room!) and the Guinness Storehouse. We went to Roscommon and saw my great-grandmother's home before going to Knock Shrine (maginificent)! Galway, Kylemore Abbey, feeding sheep, meeting Connemara ponies, climbing all through Bunratty Castle, and relaxing at Durty Nellie's before climbing the Cliffs of Moher just doesn't get any better! The hotels were beyond anything I could have imagined (the Gresham in Dublin, The Galmont in Galway, and the Armada in County Clare on the water). Additionally, My Ireland Tour's website for itinerary and payment is VERY organized, which is extremely helpful and lets you see everything. Finally, our driver, Dave Darby, was just the best! We laughed all week, learned a lot, and had great transportation. There's a reason he is 'King of the Road'! The van holds 9, and the 8 of us had plenty of room and comfort. As a first-time traveler and an overthinker, I cannot say enough good things about My Ireland Tour. Everything was taken care of, excluding lunch and dinner, which helped me budget for the trip and just enjoy without the concern of figuring out all of tickets for individual stops, hotel rooms, transportation. This is truly a company focused on personalization!

June 2024 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
We were a party of three booked on the 14 day, June 8 -21, 2024 Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. Our tour guide was Sean O'Sullivan and without his expert driving skills and extensive knowledge of Ireland, it would not have been as wonderful as it was. Sean picked us up at the airport at 9 a.m. on day one and brought us back to the airport on the final day at 5 a.m. and every day in between he was everything a professional tour guide should be! We loved the food at every hotel. Each dinner offered three courses with three choices on the starters and main. Some hotels offered choices for dessert but most offered a plate with three different desserts. Breakfasts were buffet style with the usual Irish fare: scrambled eggs, sausages, rasher bacon, blood pudding, scones, juice, etc. The hotels were well appointed, but be prepared for two differences between Irish hotels and North American hotels: all but two did not provide face cloths and every hotel opted for a covered duvet with no bedsheet between you and the cover. Which might not be a problem if the rooms were cool or cold but most were warm which meant that if you didn't want to sweat, you needed to remove the duvet from the cover and use the cover as a sheet. One of the best surprises about My Ireland Tours is the amount of space provided on the bus. There were 23 people on our tour which meant that each person had two seats to themselves; plenty of room for bags or backpacks and to stretch out on our long touring days. The only criticism I have which is shared by our group of three is that on the last few days of the tour, we were getting a bit weary; we would have appreciated lighter touring days where we could rest at the hotel or go to a local pub and relax. Perhaps drop the Guinness Storehouse or Jameson tours? We had already had the Bushmills Whiskey tour (which was wonderful), three tours of alcohol producers seemed a bit much (at least for us and we enjoy a wee nip!). The last excursion to The Merry Ploughboy was thoroughly enjoyed by all! If you're on the fence between My Ireland and another tour company, it's a no-brainer if you like lots of room on the bus. Five stars, well deserved!

For travelers from America who are visiting Scotland and Ireland, the tour is typically only as good as the places on the itinerary and the guide who provides the commentary on the countries. Fortunately for our tour in early June 2024, the cities and country side we visited, and our guide, Damian, get exceedingly high marks. Beginning with Damian, the man is a font of knowledge and shared that knowledge in an interesting and often humorous fashion. In addition, his skills as a driver of the tour bus were remarkable. We always arrived at our scheduled hotels in plenty of time for dinner and Damian had us on the road timely so as to avoid most of the crowds at the various points of interest. He also knew of choice spots to stop for lunch. In short, he had the right mixture of droll humor, source of information (without being overwhelming) and Irish charm to make traveling with him a definite plus. The cities and points of interest that we visited met our expectations. In hindsight, I would have liked to have spent more time in the cities but the itinerary description was in no way misleading. If anything, the itinerary description did not do justice to the places outside the cities that we visited. All the hotels were clean, comfortable and quiet and several were exceptional. Dinners at the hotels were fine but not particularly memorable. In terms of a recommendation, if the purpose of the trip is to see as much of the two countries as possible in a two week period, and to learn about the countries' histories, this tour is for you.

The tour was above our expectations. Our driver/guide, Colm Clarke, went above and beyond in providing a fun and stress-free vacation. He even found us when we were lost in the Dublin airport. The only suggestion for improvement would be to trade Clonmacnoise for Newgrange. The Rock of Cashel and Clonmacnoise were very similar. Either way the tour and Colm deserve five stars. If we come back to Ireland, we will only book with My Ireland Tours

Thoroughly enjoyed our 8-day Ancient Ireland Mini-Group tour. It was our first organized tour but won't be our last. Driver/Guide David B. was exceptional, extremely knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor! The coach, the accommodations, the food and the company were super!

My daughter and I were on the 10 day Ireland Castle tour in June and we had a wonderful time. Ben Sullivan was our driving and guide and everyone on the tour was wonderful. We all enjoyed getting to know each other. We loved all the places we stayed and all the history we learned while there. We would definitely tour with My Ireland Tour again and my son is already asking me to take him on the England tour. We would love to go back to Ireland and visit again. It was a great tour for my daughter's first time overseas.

We have just returned from the 14 day Ireland Tour. Our driver/tour guide was Michael Coleman. His amazing depth of knowledge with regard to history, geography, culture and politics was outstanding and he made it interesting. He was very helpful, had a good sense of humour and made the holiday very enjoyable. All the hotels and the food were excellent. The coach was very comfortable and we had space to spread out. We would highly recommend My Ireland Tour.

Our trip to Ireland was so expertly arranged by our tour company to explore so much of the island in a short amount of time. Our tour guide, Ben Sullivan, has to be their best guide. He filled us with history, Irish music, jokes, and sang for us. And, he found us pixies when we were lost. I loved Londonderry/derry. There, we had an amazing guide, also. He kidded that he was an Irish Buddhist. Cliffs of moher are spectacular, Killarney , ring of Kerry, the wild Atlantic way, and Dublin, and the rolling countryside were awesome. As my distant grandmother was kidnapped off the coast of county cork, I was very much interested in the history of the island. It was a trip I will always remember

June 2024 • Deluxe Castles Tour
I recently took my 88-year-old mother on the My Ireland Tour Deluxe Irish Castles Tour (April 28 - May 7, 2024), and it was a truly wonderful experience. This was my first time on a bus tour, and it exceeded all expectations. The tour was incredibly well-organized, the bus was spacious and comfortable, and we made great new friends along the way. I was initially concerned about my mother making the trip, but our tour guide, John Dennany, was absolutely amazing. He was incredibly kind, considerate, and always went the extra mile to ensure everyone’s comfort. A true Irish gentleman - John even took my mom to tea when she couldn't join a longer walk and helped her up the hill to see The Rock of Cashel - which ended up being her favorite site. John's great sense of humor and fun personality truly made the trip the best it could be, keeping everyone entertained and engaged throughout. His extensive knowledge of Irish history also made the tour exceptional. Highlights included the stunning Cliffs of Moher, the romantic Kylemore Abbey, and there was even a delightful surprise at Lough Eske Castle. We had (mostly) beautiful sunny weather and the drives through miles of gorgeous green scenery were simply breathtaking. So much beauty in one country was unforgettable. The final nights at the incredible K-Club Hotel were a perfect conclusion to the trip. The hotel's stunning grounds and luxurious accommodations, along with its beautiful golf course, added an extra layer of magic. This trip was an absolute joy and a fabulous memory of a perfect mother-daughter adventure. Everything from the accommodations to the food was top-notch. My Ireland Tour provided an unforgettable experience, and I highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to explore the beauty of Ireland in comfort and style.

We have used My Ireland tours twice over the last few years. They have done a terrific job with our group (<10) people. Our latest tour was to Scotland and Northern Ireland. Our driver, John Dennany, was awesome. So helpful and knowledgeable, John offered us suggestions and options for our free time and sites to see in each town we overnighted in. I'm already planning our next visit. All of my friends are eager to hear about our trip. Thank you so much!

My husband and I did the 14 day Ireland and Scotland tour. Our tour Director was Damien McKenna who was awesome! He has an amazing depth of knowledge of history, geography, geology, culture, politics and shared it in an interesting way. His experience added much value, 1 example -when we got to the Blarney Castle early before the cruise ships, we stood in line 10 mins. not 90. He knew about good restaurants, experiences and time wasters, what to avoid. He offered the most time efficient way to see sites. He is also a kind, thoughtful person and made me feel comfortable.

Our 14-Day Discover Scotland & Ireland with our guide and driver, Paddy O'Farrell was outstanding! Paddy did such a wonderful job of helping each of our tour members with various things throughout the tour and his knowledge of Irish history was vast. Paddy also had such a wonderful personality and sense of humor! We thoroughly enjoyed this tour - 14 days filled with beautiful scenery and many historical and interesting stops! Thanks to all within this tour company for all the work prior and especially to Paddy for a great experience!

My wife, daughter and I had a wonderful tour of Ireland. The bus and driver, Karl White, were great. He was very informed and funny. The accommodations were very nice. The meals were great, too. It was our first time in Ireland, and this tour makes us want to come back. We loved all the stops we made and enjoyed the country. Thank you.

This tour was outstanding. Sign up now with this company!! Shannon O'Brien, tour director, was extremely helpful in organizing and meeting our tour and mobility needs. The bus was new and clean. The bus driver, Seamus, was the most helpful and generous person. We had a mobility scooter supplied by another company and Seamus helped us get it on and off the bus each day. He would let us know where and when we would be able to use it or when a location would not be accessible. He was extremely knowledgeable about each tour location and WOW...can this man drive a bus. He should be honored with driver of the year. Holy cow can he drive. The roads were so narrow and the turns on the mountains were so tight - and somehow, he got that bus around each corner. We are extremely grateful for this tour company, Shannon and Seamus and hope that we can come back some day in future for another tour. My Ireland Tour - ROCKS!!!. If I could give 10 stars - I would!!!

We just got back from a week long private tour of Ireland using My Ireland Tours and I cannot recommend them enough. The whole process was enjoyable from start to finish! Working with Eric on the itinerary was so easy and enjoyable! I gave him a list of the few things we wanted to see and he was able to come up with the perfect itinerary for us. Before our tour, 3 of us flew into Dublin for one night, then headed to the Isle of Man for a week. Eric was able to add a hotel for that that first night and found a way to have the hotel hold all our luggage for the week we were on the Isle of Man because we couldn't take it all with. On our way back from the Isle of Man, the ferry booking took us to Belfast and I tried to find public transportation to get us back to Dublin to meet up with the rest of our group. The timing wasn't working out so last minute, Eric was also able to find us a private car to get from Belfast back to Dublin. He is a hero in my book! Once we started our private tour, it was non-stop laughter! Our driver, Joe was an amazing tour guide! He was so knowledgeable, answered all our annoying questions, and fit right in with our sarcastic, (sometimes rambunctious) jolly crew. I have not recovered from all the laughter and learned so much about the history and current events of Ireland. We felt completely safe and at ease during the entire trip knowing Joe was with us. The bus was comfortable - reclining seats, USB chargers, wi-fi, and lots of space. If/when we go back, I will definitely be using My Ireland Tours for all my needs. They're the absolute best!

Just came back from the 8 day tour of Ireland. We really enjoyed this trip. The bus driver was excellent and gave us lots of information about the sites that we toured. We enjoyed the scenic and historic areas we visited. The hotels and food were also very good.

We signed up for My Ireland Tour 10 day Iconic ScenesTour and felt so fortunate to have Tom Lavin as our guide. The itinerary was robust and we experienced places we would not have been able to get to on our own. It was the perfect combination of main sites and special surprise visits! The accommodations were excellent and there were plenty of choices for a vegetarian diet. Tom took care of every detail to make travels easy and his narrative as a guide was informative, engaging and educational. We fell in love with Ireland and highly recommend this trip.

Folks, I signed up for this tour (10 day iconic tour of Ireland) to visit the land my great grandparents came from and of course, to sightsee. What I received instead was far beyond my expectations. Never before have I ever experienced a service which delivered with such perfection. Given the fact that Ireland is such a beautiful country, the sightseeing was incredible. But it doesn't end there. Our wonderful driver and tour guide, Tom Lavin took this trip to another level and turned it into an 'experience to remember'. His auditory while driving around this great land helped explain what we were seeing and educated us on the ways of the Irish people and life itself. This tour was such a great adventure for me! Myself and my family are already making plans to do it again...

Just returned from the Iconic Ireland - Scotland tour. Our Driver / Guide Damien McKenna made our trip seamless and informative, he was very professional. Only drawback was lots of seat time and limited time at some venues but then again you are seeing 2 countries in as many weeks so its understandable.
Paul Marshall
June 2024 • 8 Day Iconic Scenes
Best tour we ever went on. We did the 8 day southern tour of Ireland. It was a great mix of typical tourist stuff (i.e. Blarney stone) and just enough 'off the beaten path' experiences of the island. Our guide was fantastic, our bus was large and comfortable, and the all-inclusive accommodations + meals + admission to all of the sights was so convenient! This is an Irish company, not an out-of-country outfit, and we benefited from their inside knowledge and connections. This outfit is hightly recommended.
DeAnn Shepherd
June 2024 • Ancient Ireland and Scotland Tour
We just returned from our 13 day ANCIENT IRELAND & SCOTLAND TOUR 2024 (small group, only 8!) with Peter Kelly. From Peter’s very first phone call to confirm our meeting in the lobby of the Doubletree Hotel in Edinburgh, to saying goodbye in the lobby of the Brooks Hotel in Dublin, he was fantastic! The personal service and intimate nature of only having 8 people was perfect. Peter’s passion and knowledge of both countries showed brilliantly throughout the tour. This is a very active tour (wear your walking shoes!) and it’s truly unbelievable how many different places a group can experience in a single day. We explored castles, monasteries and abbies; stayed in 7 hotels (some were also castles); experienced 2 ferries and 1 cruise, enjoyed Glenturret Distillery in Scotland and Guinness Brewery in Dublin; viewed multiple coastal lines, including the North Sea, North Atlantic Ocean, North Channel, Irish Sea, the Isle of Syke and Giant’s Causeway; admired many mountains, lakes and valleys, including Ben Bulben and Connemara Mountains, Cairngorms and Trossachs National Parks, Loch Ness, Loch Lomond, Lough Corrib and Inagh Valley; and walked through spectacular gardens and landscapes. The food was excellent and the accommodations were outstanding. Peter went above and beyond expectations to provide us with a trip of a lifetime. I highly recommend this tour and guide Peter Kelly!

June 2024 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
Our May 25-June 7 tour of Scotland and Ireland was lead by Paddy O'Farrell. Even though it rained quite a bit and we encountered a number of personal problems Paddy was able to professionally help us out. He actually was the best part of the trip with his humor and patience. Except for 2 hotels which were above average, 6 stars, the other hotels were only 3-4 star. The food in all the hotels except for the above mentioned, was dismally ordinary and the same limited menu was presented to us at each hotel. Also the fast pace and long days were exhausting with no down time or time to shop in any city, except Blarney. The tour does give you an overall view of Scotland and Ireland...seen from a bus. This tour would be good for someone who has limited physical ability. Again, Paddy was incredibly nice and patient and we thank him for his service.

Just finished the 14 Day iconic scenes of Ireland tour, Michael was our guide. Fantastic experience, Michael was extremely knowledgeable about the history, mythology, and current events of Ireland and had a charismatic personality. All the itinerary stops seemed well thought out, while I could have spent hours meandering through some of the sites as a group tour I felt adequate time was allotted for each stop. Highly recommend this company to anyone thinking of traveling to Ireland.

My niece went on her very first international trip with me to Ireland, using My Ireland Tours, and now she is enthusiastic about traveling. Séamus was our tour coach driver, & guide. He was entertaining, knowledgeable, a great driver, & kept our tour on track while optimizing our time, & experience. Planning the trip through My Ireland Tours was the best decision I made, due to their variety of activities, places to see, various choices of tour lengths, the ease of booking, price, & the companies great communication. We had such a wonderful time in this beautiful country that other family members plan on visiting!

Doing the 14 day Ireland tour was amazing. The sites picked out were perfect. I loved how there were only a small amount of people on the tour. Colm, our guide/driver knew a lot of history and had so much pride for Ireland. His humor made the drives in-between sites great. He also made sure everyone knew the plans for the following day and was available for questions about Ireland that didn't have to do with sites we were visiting. I would definitely do another tour with them.

We did the 6 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland with Seamus as our trusty driver and guide... Excellent tour with lots to see and just enough free time to do our own thing. It was great that they don't book the bus completely full and you have a bit of room to be comfortable. Hotels were fantastic and it was nice not having to switch rooms every night by doing the 'hub and spoke' method. Would highly recommend!

The 14 day itinerary allows stops at many beautiful and iconic locations. Would highly recommend this tour company.

Ian Martin
June 2024 • 8 Day Iconic Scenes
Very comprehensive tour with a superb guide. Harry Fisher - was unfailingly cheerful, always amusing, exceptionally knowledgeable and always patient. We took the 8 day Iconic tour which had been well planned either by the office staff / and or Harry. The hotels, with the exception of the final 2 nights in Dublin, (the Samuel Hotel) were generally very good, well located and catered for our needs well enough. Our one major criticism of the tour was the inclusion of an Irish Night dinner & cabaret - on the last night. The food was poor and the entertainment was the same, except for the Irish dancing. Had we known exactly what it would be and been given the choice, we certainly would have chosen not to attend if an alternative diner was available in the hotel. This is clearly a very personal point of view and was not shared by the majority - it appears ! Equally, the choice of tour vehicle was inadequate for my purposes. Being 6 feet tall, and weighing 14 stone plus - I was simply not able to find a comfortable position, even with a vacant seat beside me. Others found the same problem also. The available leg room was insufficient to relax the legs. For those of you who have flown on Ryanair, imagine being in that seat for 7 days !

We did a private tour with My Ireland Tour of Belfast and Londonderry in May 2024. There were 6 of us in our group. Our driver, Patrick was right there at the Dublin Airport to pick us up and we were on our way. The Sprinter Van was comfortable and nice to have at our disposable during our stops. Eric, and his company organized everything beautifully. We loved Belfast and Londonderry even more. The private tour guides that Eric used for specific tours we requested were excellent. The hotels that we stayed at in Belfast (Europa Hotel) and Londonderry (Shipquay Boutique Hotel) were fabulous. Our rooms were spacious and beautiful. I have used My Ireland Tour in the past and again they did not disappoint. I HIGHLY recommend My Ireland Tour for a fabulous trip. Thank you again Eric and your team. Kathy and the rest of the group.

I cannot say enough good things about My Ireland Tour! We took the 14 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour and it was everything I hoped it would be. The trip itinerary was perfect and our driver even made time for some additional photo opps. Our driver/guide, Colm Clarke, was exceptional. He handled the narrow roads and other crazy drivers with professionalism and humor. I always felt safe and comfortable. His knowledge of Irish history was amazing and you really felt the pride he has for his country. Not to mention that he was absolutely hysterical which made the trip even more entertaining. I can't think of anything to complain about. I highly recommend My Ireland Tours.

I just finished the 14- day Iconic Scenes of Scotland and Ireland Tour. It was perfect from start to finish. Our group was friendly and fun, and our tour guide was fantastic. Our coach was very comfortable. The hotels and food were great. Each day was well paced with ample stretch/bathroom breaks. Our driver/guide Patty Ofarrell was remarkable. He was organized, cheerful and extremely knowledgeable about the areas and their history. We felt like we really knew the areas we visited in a deeper way due to our wonderful tour guide. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to get to see both urban and rural areas of Ireland and Scotland.

The tour exceeded our expectations! Mr. John Mulryan was an absolute professional. He did such a great job of keeping us on schedule and was flexible as well. His driving skills were impressive and we always felt like we were in good hands. We learned so much about Ireland, its people, culture and history. We also really enjoyed meeting the people in our group. It was the perfect size! I would definitely take another tour with My Ireland Tours and I’m already considering one for next year!

My family just finished the 18 iconic Britain & Ireland tour in May. Our tour guide, Rosemary and driver, Brent were fabulous. They genuinely cared that the group really enjoyed themselves and received the most out of the tour. There were a few items on tour that could be changed (less time at Jedburgh and skipping Drumcliff). Really enjoyed our tour guide, Jerry in Derry/Londonderry. Made some great memories and met the nicest people on the tour. Would highly recommend My Ireland Tour to those interested in seeing many sites and having the best experience.

We truly had a trip of a lifetime and wouldn't hesitate to recommend My Ireland Tour company...or schedule another trip back

We took the 8 day Iconic tour of Ireland and had a grand time. From the beginning the booking team was very helpful answering questions, providing relevant, timely communications and ensuring we were well prepared. The tour itself was wonderful. Well planned itinerary, clean comfortable coach, excellent accommodations and meals. Our guide, Harry Fisher made the trip a hit.

Our coach was very comfortable. The hotels and food were great. Each day was well paced with ample stretch/bathroom breaks. Our driver/guide John Mulryan was remarkable. He was organized, cheerful and extremely knowledgeable. He shared much information on Irish history and life in Ireland today, He was very interesting to listen to while gazing at the dazzling scenery out of the bus window. I came away feeling so connected to my Irish roots. Thank you John!! I highly recommend this tour. Great no stress way to experience Ireland.

June 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
We throughly enjoyed our personal tour of Ireland's west and south with our most excellent guide, Shirley. We hit it off immediately and spent a great 10 days seeing the historical and cultural sites of southern and western Ireland. What made the trip special for us was Shirley. Her intricate knowledge of the area and her ability to get to know us so quickly allowed her to add in many other stops that were not listed on our itinerary. Instead of just a drive from stop to stop Shirley really made it a tour. At Shirley's suggestion we saw ancient stone circles, scenic views, museums, lighthouses, cemeteries, rhunestones, religious sites and ate at great little pubs and restaurants. She managed our time expertly and always called ahead to keep us on schedule and ensure my wife's dietary restrictions were noted and accommodated. My ireland tour had everything from dinners to accommodations and entry passes set up in advance and stayed in contact with us from our time of booking till our arrival. We will surely book with My Ireland again and definitely request Shirley as our driver guide.

Our recent 14 day Iconic Ireland tour was absolutely fantastic. We had a few problems which prevented us joining the tour for 2 days, but Eric worked with us tirelessly and ensured we got connected asap, never have we come across such fantastic service. Tour content was a fantastic mix of all, particularly nature and historic based activities. Our driver/guide, Don O'Donoghue, was a marvellous all rounder. Drove the large bus through many a tight country road, kept us entertained with all his stories (and dare I say 'dad' jokes), and factual points. Loved that was a small group of 24 on a large bus - gave us all lots of room to spread out. All in all a highly recommended tour to see the whole ring of such a beautiful place as Ireland. Thank you My Ireland Tour.
John Billman
June 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
We had a marvelous 10 day tour of Ireland with My Ireland Tour. The company was very easy to work with. We had a couple of specific places which we wanted to visit based on some ancestry work we had done. At the same time, we wanted to see the most of Ireland possible during the ten day tour. We communicated via mostly email from the US. Bottom line: a very successful and enjoyable tour. We got a new understanding of Ireland’s history including the “Troubles” and peace treaty and also the incredible beauty of the island. The hotel accommodations were mostly very good to excellent with one exception: the Mauldon Hotel in Derry which was OK but didn’t compare to the other hotels. We stayed one night in a the Blindgate House in Kinsale which, while being fine, did not provide the breadth of services of the hotels we stayed in. But what made this trip extra special was our Guide/driver for the week, Joe O’Connor. His was with us every one of the ten days. Meeting us promptly in the morning and making sure we were settled in our accommodations in the afternoon. The tour included scheduled stops with the flexibility to add and delete stops. With his knowledge of Ireland, Joe recommended a few unique and interesting stops along our route. This included: - a wonderful demonstration of sheep dog abilities - A visit to a reconstructed typical early 1900s Irish country home - An ancient burial monolith
John Giordano
June 2024 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
My husband, John and I just came back from My Ireland's 14 Day Iconic Scotland & Ireland Tour. Our driver/tour guide, Pat Prendergast was absolutely incredible and was such a wealth of information! Pat went the extra mile for each one of us and really made our trip so worthwhile! A few suggestions for future 14 day Scotland & Ireland Trips that were echoed by fellow travelers on our coach bus: a) Having travelers wear ID name tags is a good idea and helps people get to know each other more quickly. Some people need a visual cue in order to remember someone's name, b) Time should be allotted in Belfast for a tour of the Titanic Museum. I know a lot of people on our bus showed interest and would have liked to have gone inside this historical museum-especially since we drove right by the museum. c) A two night stay should be based into the itinerary for guests to stay at Lough Eske Castle (even if this increases the price of the tour a bit). One night is simply just not enough- especially considering guests usually arriving at the castle don't get there until sometime in the afternoon, only to have dinner and then leave the next morning, All in all, we had a marvelous time, saw some amazing places & met some very nice people. Would we use My Ireland again for a future excursion- Most Definitely! Diane & John Giordano

The tour of Northern Ireland in May was our second experience with My Ireland Tour. We enjoyed our first tour with the company and didn't think twice about using them again. Their tours are simply the best: knowledgable drivers with entertaining personalities, top notch accommodations (lodging and meals), and knowledge of cultural and historical spots not to be missed. Being part of a small group of tourists is very pleasant and gave us the opportunity to enjoy new friends. If we want to plan another tour of Ireland, England or Scotland, it will be with My Ireland Tour. Judy and Fred Reuter

Went on the 12 day ancient Ireland and Scotland tour. It was the tour of a lifetime. Our driver, Ken O'Connell, gave us a history lesson on Scotland and Ireland as he was driving us. Really enjoyed his stories and the beautiful scenery out of the huge windows on the van. The accommodations were great and the gourmet dinners were great. Best trip I've ever been on.

My Ireland tour was absolutely amazing! The hotels, coach bus, the sightseeing and our tour guide/coach driver John was excellent! Everyone on our tour was so fun! John our tour guide/driver was the absolute best! He made my dreams come true of having an Irish traffic jam with sheep! He even did a little detour and pulled over to lets us feed the sheep from the food stand! I would definitely recommend booking a tour with them! Perfect way to see Ireland! You get to sit back, relax and enjoy your holiday!

Wow - just coming back from a 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour and already wanting to go back & see more! From beginning to end, it was a memorable visit! So many positives: 1.). Tom Lavin - our driver - was amazing & made the tour what it was: safe (great driving Tom!), adventurous, and filled with so many beautiful sites of Ireland! Absolutely “brilliant”! Tom shared so much knowledge of every facet of Irish life and of places we drove by - not just the sites visited. We became so familiar with so much of Ireland because of Tom! We also appreciated his insight to change up the itinerary to include the crystal shop & view demonstrations of the etching of crystal! We especially want to thank Tom for the bus treats he shared with our group - a nice touch of extra hospitality! Tom was an utmost professional at all times. 2.) The hotels & food were excellent! Loved the variety of hotels - from a castle to inner city to an old school-turned hotel - and all served such delicious food! What a plus to have both breakfast & dinner provided each day! 3.). The 100,000 welcomes from the hospitable Irish people - everywhere we went, we were greeted with such kindness & willingness to make our visit the best it could be! And it was the best! What a great way to tour Ireland for our first time there - the 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland will be recommended highly by us to anyone who wants to see the best of Ireland! A five-star review!! We look forward to visiting the Emerald Isle again in the future!

My husband and I had a great time on the 14-Day Discover Scotland & Ireland. John Dennany was a great driver/guide. His knowledge of the history and his sense of humor made it quite an entertaining time! John is the best!

Absolutely amazing in every way! We took the Ancient Ireland Tour with Cathal Clarke, who was our guide; he truly made the trip perfect!

Ann and I had a wonderful time on our 10 day Deluxe Irish Castle Tour. The trip was very informative and we really got a flavor for Irish culture. I cannot say enough about our guide Sean O'Sullivan. He really turned the trip into one of the best vacations we've ever had. His knowledge of Ireland is amazing. He truly gave a master class on Irish history. He has a great sense of humor and is a genuinely nice person. Our trip was flawless. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

We had a wonderful trip with My Ireland Tour across Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Ireland. Our guide, Pat Prendergast was especially knowledgeable, insightful, and witty making every stop worthwhile and interesting. Keith and staff were always timely with their communications at every step along the way. We would recommend this company to anyone who wants to see these countries.

The tour and our driver-guide George were phenomenal! We did the 10-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour in mid-May and honestly if I could do every tour, every vacation with George for the rest of my life that would be OK -- he was super knowledgeable about every place we visited, both the history and the current state of affairs, and was able to easily illustrate how these things not only shaped the current status of Ireland, but also how it made Ireland fit in in the broader world-wide scene. It was obvious that he (and My Ireland Tour) had tons of experience doing these tours, as the itinerary was fast-paced and absolutely stuffed full, but everything still went smoothly and even at the points where it went a little sideways George always had a backup/workaround already prepared. I also really loved that in addition to the big obvious tourist spots, we were also shown smaller, more local areas/businesses that someone from overseas would never find out about, and honestly I think I enjoyed that more than anything because it makes you feel so much closer to the people and the culture than the obligatory tourist areas. George was so great I'm actually worried that all my future vacation tours are going to feel lackluster because the guides won't be nearly as cool as him.

A group of us from college decided to go to Ireland. Thank goodness we landed this tour. It was amazing and our tour guide Cathal Clarke was superior. I highly recommend!

Well planned and executed 14 day experience of an island; Ireland about the size of Indiana. Our driver/guide made it interesting. And his driving got us through some narrow challenging roads. Some of the roads haven't been widened since the horse and buggy. Great history and experience

June 2024 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
We just home from the 14 day tour of Ireland and Scotland. The days were packed full with lots of bus time, but the scenery was amazing. Might not be the best option for people that want some more downtime on their vacations. Enjoyed the evenings to wander around wherever we were spending the night. Our guide Ken was absolutely amazing, patient, funny and full of knowledge. He made the trip worthwhile and was very accommodating (he even arranged for us to see a sheep herding demonstration that was not on the original itinerary). Also, 5 stars for the weather (only had rain rain 3 times in the whole 2 weeks). Highly recommend and feel the value was there.

My friend and I had a fantastic experience with My Ireland Tour! We did the Discover Northern Ireland Tour with Cathal as our driver. He was fantastic and shared so much history about Northern Ireland, as well as information about everywhere we drove through. The pace of the tour was perfect with a balance of planned activities and free time on our own, particularly in the evenings. Because we had a small group, we all had the chance to get to know each other, particularly during the included three course dinners, which was an added bonus. I've already told friends thinking about visiting Ireland about how wonderful our tour was and will continue to recommend My Ireland Tour.

June 2024 • Historic Irish Castle Tour
I did the 7 day castles tour in Ireland with one of my young sons. Overall, it was a very nice trip. Pros: early communication, itinerary, accomodations, etc were all very transparent. It was a good overall value. There are well planned rest stops for longer bus rides and a chance to grab lunch every day. The two castle accommadations were interesting. The guide was knowledgeable and tour group small. It would have been nice to take ten min to intro everyone. The food at Riu Gresham was not great and cold for dinner although breakfast was a nice buffet. Consistent on food was that it lacked 'typcial' Irish faire. Disspointing because we had avoided it in the few days before the tour. There is also no beef or lamb and after seeing thousands roaming the country that was weird. A sample menu for each place would be nice because it otherwise was pretty good. While the castles were really nice, the first one at least was very remote which resulted in a lot of extra bus time. The second was walkable to town if you don't mind hills. The farm lunch is nothing to get excited about, would have preferred to be dropped at a pub. We didn't do the dinner show because there was too much bus time on the last day and we are not night owls. Overall, this was good for a group tour. Much better than some of the tour buses I saw packed with people. The tour operator knows how to communicate and packs a lot in. My son was able to make a nice presentation for his class using all the info he absorbed.

June 2024 • Deluxe Castles Tour
Just back from My Ireland Tour's 'Deluxe Irish Castles' 10-day tour. The tour was excellent! Our guide, Sean, was so charming and humorous, passionate about sharing his knowledge of Irish history as well as current life, and extremely professional and efficient in managing all details and safety. He effortlessly brought us all together as a family of travellers. The hotels we stayed at were each unique and top-notch in terms of comfort, service and meals. An organized bus tour typically means being on the go every day. My Ireland Tours handled this better than many companies, as we were booked for two nights in every hotel (other than the first night) and our daily starting time was a reasonable 9:00. We were generally back to our hotel by 5:00 and had time to relax before dinner at 6:30. Because of the unique locations of our hotels, we were usually not in walking distance of a village, but the grounds were beautiful and wonderful to explore.

I am from the states and did not feel like driving around. The ten days amount was perfect, and one of the days I stayed at the hotel and explored the city we were in instead of driving around. I had an amazing time, the bus seats were very comfortable, and Sean O Sullivan our bus driver and tour guide was phenomenal! He went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable, safe and told us so much about the country. Loved it and had a fabulous time!

We had a wonderful trip on our first time to Ireland. Catroina and her team were very flexible as we planned our private tour. They gave us an itinerary to start with and we were able to make some adjustments to get in more of what we wanted to see. Our driver, Dave Darby, was THE BEST. We loved his sense of humor and he was extremely accommodating and knowledgeable. By the end of the trip, he was a part of our family and we already miss him.

An amazing experience, made possible first of all by Catriona, who was amazing at helping us make the best use of our time in Ireland with great planning, dealing with our ever changing needs and amazing service orientation. David our driver was essence of Irish Friendship. Great knowledge of the sites we were visiting over the 8 days and great sense of humor

This was our first time taking a tour, though we have done many international trips. We were a little nervous to give up control. We were so impressed with My Ireland Tours. Harry Fisher was practically magical getting us in and out of everywhere with grace and humor. His stories were absolute gold! The hotels were all very nice and the food was much better than I expected. Having someone move our bags every time was so nice. I will let everyone know that I highly recommend My Ireland Tours!
Cindy Chambers
May 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
There were things about I tour that I loved and then things about our tour I didn't love, but tolerated. Much of this comes from living in a different region of the world not understanding how things are done in a country being visited. The great things were.... 1) All the places we visited. All amazing. Loved seeing and hearing out the history of both Scotland and Ireland. Phenomenal 2) Our driver, John was beyond a 5 star. If I could give him 10 stars, I would, He was engaging, patient, fun and humorous. He had a system down that worked well. Honestly, I don't know how he was so calm with one lady on our bus who was chronically late by 15+ minutes every single time we were to meet. She was beyond disrespectfully to the group as a whole regarding this lateness. She showed no remorse nor apologized. If I were John, I would have lost it. He maintained his cool and professionalism. 3) My Ireland Tour company was excellent. They answered all of my emails the same day and were forthcoming with information. The things we didn't know about was our fault because we failed to ask. Everything about the company is very professional and organized. Not an easy job. What I wish were different... 1) The length in each day. Each day came with almost 8 hours or more of bus travel. It was exhausting for me personally a woman of almost 64 years. There were more than enough stops which were wonderful, but going from one hotel to the next, living out of a suitcase for 14 days was hard. This tour is very fast paced. 2) The hotels were about 3 stars rating US standards. The morning buffets far exceeding anything offered in the US. Excellent buffet with tons of options. The sleeping accommodations were not easy. The rooms were very hot. The windows were set to only open at the most 3 inches which did not provide relief. There was no way to request a flat sheet as a bed cover. All they offered as a bed cover was a thick winter all-in-one duvet. Great for the winter, not great for summer temps. If we kept the window open to get some air, then the bright city lights and noises from the outside made sleeping impossible. If we closed the window and curtains, the noises and lights were gone, but....we felt like turkeys basting in the oven. The tubs are all super deep to enter for showering and they are slippery. This was a hazard for us seniors. 3) Motion on the bus. This region is not know for smooth straight highways. Most roads are very small, windy with constant swaying. If you are a person who experiences motion sickness like me, come prepared with medication from your hometown. I am happy we went on this tour. We enjoyed all the places we visited, the history and the driver. This tour is definitely worth taking. As a traveler be prepared. Bring your own personal flat sheet for the hotel rooms. Understand that this tour is fast-paced with long back to back days of traveling on the bus. Once home, you will need a few days of doing nothing to recover. Don't take this tour with with the mindset, that Ireland and Scotland have business practices similar to what you find in the US. They don't. Their way of life is different and this is perfectly fine. Do not have expectations and all will be right with the world.

My wife and I joined the 14 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour. What an adventure. We say we packed 16 days of activities into 14 days. The tour is well planned out with all the experiences you would want as a first-time visitor. The tour was made extra special with Ben Sullivan as our Guide. His love of family, community, country and countrymen were obvious through his historical stories or discussions on the impact history has had on his and others families. We thoroughly enjoyed his Playlist, Jokes, Poem's and Tour Guide experience. Great Tour even better Tour Guide.

This is a great tour! Ireland and Scotland! We had the best tour guide John...he went out of his way to make this tour very memorable. He was a funny, witty, and most of all kind by accommodating the needs of the people on the tour. Jon is an asset to the company.He will be missed and to all of us on the tour he was family! We all had such a wonderful experience!

Our My Ireland Tour of Scotland and Ireland was an amazing experience and far exceeded our expectations! The history and beauty of the countries and the kindness of the people we met made it a very special vacation, but what made it most memorable was our tour guide and driver, Pat Prendergast. He has an amazing memory and made the history come alive for us. He also has a wonderful sense of humor, is kind and patient and has a pleasant and soothing voice - and he sings well also. The bus we traveled in was extremely clean and comfortable and Pat is an excellent driver. We cannot say enough good things about this tour company and will continue to sing its praises to everyone we meet. Thanks for giving us such a wonderful experience!

I just got back from the 6 day Ireland tour. It was an amazing experience. Seamus was the best driver he had lots of information on every site we visited. He helped us with transportation options since we were staying an extra day to explore Belfast. I’m not sure what we would have done without his help. I highly recommend this tour group!

Thank you so much for planning our amazing trip. Tim Horgan was the perfect driver for us. He was knowledgeable and shared information as we traveled and stopped at places he thought we might like. We had a plan yet flexibility to make it our trip. We enjoyed the beauty of Ireland and all the people we met and we could travel without any stress. The accommodations were excellent.

May 2024 • Deluxe Castles Tour
My husband and I just returned from the Deluxe Irish Castle Tour with My Ireland Tour Company. It was fantastic. Our guide, Colm Clarke, is an Irish treasure! So organized, so friendly, so funny, so knowledgeable about Ireland and its history. He also gave us recommended places, restaurants, pubs, to visit in our free time. The hotels we stayed at on this tour were amazing. The dinners were fantastic. We were a small group (24). Everyone got along famously (I think Colm had a lot to do with that. His energy and personality were infectious!) We were fortunate to have sunny weather every day except one. The Cliffs of Moher were stunning. Galway City was great - very lively, very walkable. Loved the visit to Belleek Pottery. Loved the lunch at the Blind Piper Pub during our drive around the Ring of Kerry. I had the Guinness stew. Highly recommend it. The Blarney Woolen Mill near Blarney Castle had an incredible selection of clothing, wools, crystal, all made in Ireland. Enjoyed the visit to the Guinness Storehouse in Dublin. Although touristy, it's kind of a must-see! Loved everything about this trip. The country is beautiful, and the people are incredibly friendly. Hope you get Colm as your guide!

Our 10 day tour of Ireland was a trip of a lifetime. This was our first trip to Europe and My Ireland Tours made it fabulous. Kristel was so great to work with and tailored our trip just perfect. One of the highlights of our trip was our guide, Pat. He was absolutely amazing. He knew so much history of the country and made sure we had the best time. Hoping to come back soon for the Northern Ireland and Scotland tour.

This was our first bus tour. We decided to try it with MIT and have no regrets. We did a 9 day tour from Dublin and loved every second of it. Gary our driver was courteous, safe, kind, and helpful throughout the tour. Every hotel we stayed at was great, not any issues at all and they were all comfortable and clean. The stops that were made were all perfectly timed and we never had to wait on line to get into any of them. The only thing I wished is that the dinners were a little more diversity. If you want to travel across Ireland without the hassle of driving yourself this is the tour for you. We were also very lucky to have 24 other people on the bus who were wonderful.

This was our first time to Ireland and the Historic Irish Castle tour was absolutely amazing. Our tour guide, Michael C. was wonderful. We were amazed with all the knowledge Michael provided throughout the entire tour...he's a walking encyclopedia. He also took into consideration the length of some of the drives and made sure to make interesting and enjoyable stops along the way. We plan on scheduling another My Ireland Tour in the future and will definitely request Michael to be our guide.

What a Great Experience! Our MyIreland tour was perfect. Our Guide/Driver Patrick Carroll was amazing. Not only did we NOT have to stress about driving on the 'wrong' side of the road we had complete freedom to adjust our daily schedule, to for instance visit a ring fort or a holy well if the notion struck us. Along the way Pat provided context, background and hilarious stories. Ireland in May is in bloom, azaleas, rhododendrons, yellow gorse, primrose and more. The people were super friendly and we were able to stay in astounding castles and hotels. It could not have been better!

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Ireland. The country is beautiful. Mic our driver took us to many areas others in larger tour buses don't have access too, especially in the Connemara and Kerry area. We enjoyed Mics company and recommend him for future tours. I would also highly recommend the smaller private tours.

Ireland is a majic place and the 14 day tour we have just experienced expansive and informative. I love history and the tour met all my expectations. I would have scored 5 however we were a group of 26 with the majority over 65yrs and unfortunately Covid reared it's head. 5 people were confirmed as positive during our tour. I did have some reservations on how this situation was managed to protect the unaffected people on the tour. We were fortunate as our vaccinations were up to date and basically dodged a bullet. A more expansive reminder of company policy on the managment of Covid on tour would have been reassuring. Our Guide Ben was knowledgeable, funny and could sing. We loved his entertainment particularily his parrot jokes! Long may he continue.

If you want to see Scottland and Ireland from top to bottom and experience just about all the places you would want to see, my Ireland Tour is your best bet. Small groups that are cozy and friendly. Our guide was Paddy, and he was great. Very knowledgeable, friendly and has a great sense of humor.

My mom and I did the 6 day iconic tour of Ireland in May 2024. It was absolutely amazing. We found the small group wonderful. The group was made up of people of different ages, areas, marital status, etc. and everyone got along very well together. The places we visited and the times allotted to each site was perfect - we didn't feel rushed. Staying in the same hotel a few nights in a row really made a difference. Our coach driver and tour guide, Seamus Keogh, was the best. He was extremely friendly, very knowledgeable on Ireland’s history and landmarks, and has a great sense of humor. I would 100% recommend this company and tour to my family and friends. An unforgettable experience.

My husband and I just returned from our wonderful Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour. We had a fantastic time! Our tour guide, Paddy O'Farrell, was exceptional. Throughout the fourteen day tour he entertained us with his knowledge and humor, made sure we were well taken care of, and drove our bus through tiny country roads and crowded city streets with considerable skill. We saw so many beautiful and interesting sights. This was our first time visiting the countries on the tour and we got an excellent overview of all three countries. We highly recommend My Ireland Tour.

May 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
10 days across Ireland. From the first communications, everything is easy and fluid. Our guide, Garey, was very good - great diverse knowledge and easy to understand. The accommodation offered was of very high quality and the meals included were diverse and plentiful. 26 people on the tour with a 46-seater bus. Everyone could be comfortable. Personally I would have taken more time in almost all the stops but that would have been to the detriment of the number of places visited. Difficult to decide as a dilemma... several stops are with local guides - passionate and very knowledgeable. In short, I am delighted and I consider that I got my money's worth.

From the outset the My Ireland Tour group treated us like family. They worked closely with us (my wife and me) to determine what we hoped to see and do and worked that into a clear and comfortable plan for our two weeks around the Emerald Isle. And our driver Ger Murphy was both a truly learned historian and a fantastic stand-up (well, sit down) comedian, in equal measure. We could not have asked for a better experience, and highly recommend this wonderful group to choreograph your dream.

My husband and I planned this trip as a 40th wedding anniversary gift to each other. We had an amazing time touring the beautiful country of Ireland with Seamus Keough as our driver and tour guide.

My sister and I had an absolutely wonderful experience on the 8 day MyIreland Tour. I highly recommend this tour as the smaller trip size allowed for us to spread out on the coach and be comfortable. We also received a wealth of information from the guide we had, Pat. You cannot go wrong with this one, the people at My Ireland tour were excellent, answered any questions we had and kept us updated on the trip.

May 2024 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
My husband and I just got back from the 14 day tour of Scotland and Ireland. Our guide/driver was Paddy O'Farrell. I can't say enough good thing about this tour and him. From the very beginning of the trip they both made it very clear that our safety, comfort, and happiness was very important to them. The bus was always clean and comfortable with plenty of room to spread out. Paddy told us all about the history of where we were at and how people lived. He had a great sense of humor and everyone enjoyed themselves. All the places we stayed were wonderful and the meal choices were excellent. Atholl Palace in Pitlochry, Scotland was my favorite. The decor was very warm and inviting and the service was exceptional. My Ireland Tour made everything so easy for us. We booked this tour a year in advance and all questions were done by email. I got quick responses the very next day. Our requests were always kept in mind. I can't say enough about this company. I would not hesitate to go with them again.

May 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
We found this two week Ireland tour to be full of variety and most enjoyable. Our guide Phillip was excellent and a good coach driver as well. We liked having it all inclusive so we didn't have any planning to do. The narrow roads wouldn't have been fun to navigate ourselves, but Phillip handled them like a pro. He told us about a couple options we could add for a price - a traditional Irish song and dance show in Killarney and a sheep dog herding exhibition along the Ring of Kerry. We really enjoyed both extras. The hotels were very comfortable. The hotel dining varied with some less tasty and accommodating than others. The lunches at the pub and Farmhouse were both very tasty and enjoyable. We would highly recommend this tour to any who want to see the entire island while learning its history.

We just had a trip of a lifetime! Our tour was meticulously planned and was perfectly curated to maximize every moment of our time in Ireland. Our driver, Keith, was dynamite! First and foremost, I never once felt nervous on the small, twisty roads in the van. Keith shared lots of wonderful information about the beautiful country and did everything he could to make sure we had a fantastic trip! 10/10 would recommend Keith and My Ireland Tour!

We did the 14 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour and it was fantastic. Philip was our guide and he was awesome. He gave us history of the areas we went through, made several stops to stretch our legs and take photos of the scenery, he was very knowledgeable and exceeded our expectations in helping me find my lost earring. My husband and I feel he went above and beyond. We would highly recommend My Ireland Tours to anyone that wants to visit Ireland!

This is hands down the best way to explore Ireland. Our guide Cathal, was extremely knowledgeable on all parts of our tour and Ireland. He was also fun, yet professional. The tour was created based on our requests to see various areas of the Island in 9 days. Catriona not only delivered on an ideal agenda, but was very communicative with us throughout the process. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tours to anyone interested in visiting Ireland.
Brandon Oswald

We did the Taste of Ireland 6 day tour and have no regrets! It was an awesome experience in large part to our driver/tour guide Seamus. About half of our trip was this tour and this was definitely the highlight of our time in Ireland.
Amanda Weynand
May 2024 • Custom / Private Tour
This May, our family did a five day private tour with My Ireland Tour. The experience from start to finish was nothing short of wonderful between the tour itself and the staff involved. Catriona was attentive, helpful, timely and overall an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the planning process. Catriona made sure every detail of our itinerary was what we were looking for; and provided great options, suggestions and advice for our trip. Our driver-guide was Ken O'Connell, who certainly added to the memorable experience we had. Ken was very caring and kind to our family and shared his knowledge of history, storytelling and of course, his sense of humor with us. Ken also made sure we were taken care of at each hotel and attraction we visited. The tour itself was perfectly curated and offered a good mixture of experiences (National Famine Museum, Connemara, Sheepdog Demonstration, Kylemore Abbey, Hazel Mountain Chocolate Factory, Cliffs of Moher, Falconry, Ring of Kerry, Cobh Heritage Centre and more) while seeing much of Ireland; and while of course taking the scenic route. We visited Galway, Killarney, Dublin and other beautiful areas along the way. The tour also offered a nice balance as there was time each day to explore the areas on your own and before choosing your own dinner (the hotels were all centrally located). I would highly suggest My Ireland Tour as a must to anyone looking to discover Ireland and would absolutely tour with them again. The experience of having our driver-guide with a meaningful, personalized itinerary was unmatched.

We just returned from a 10 day, fully escorted tour of Ireland with our fantastic guide, Patrick. He really made the trip for us, with his easy going sense of humor and knowledge of the Emerald Isle. This is a 'no stress' kind of travel, with Pat doing all the driving and advising us on the best, 'off the beaten path' kind of venues. I can't recommend My Ireland Tours with Patrick highly enough.
Lisa McD.
May 2024 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
A perfect tour starting in Edinburgh, Scotland and ending 14 days later in Dublin, Ireland. Seeing all the highlights along the way. Castles, Museums, historic sites, magical vistas. All while our tour guide, Paddy O’Farrell, provided exceptional historical narratives, pointed out sites, provided options and offered up lots of laughs and fun. We travel a lot and he was, by far, the best at what he does. We all felt welcomed and as if he was taking us along on a family jaunt. Highly suggest you do this and ask for him. You will not be disappointed.

My Ireland was great to work with. There was no pressure as we made a custom agenda. Claire was super accommodating. The pricing was fair and they worked through many details to make our journey enjoyable and a great experience. And we cannot say enough about our tour guide. He was very knowledgeable about Ireland and its rich history. He had great stories as we drove around the island to our various destinations. And he listened to our interests and made the trip very meaningful. I hope to visit again in a few years and will definitely request Patrick.

We had a marvelous time on our tour. Excellent food and lodging. Well planned and adequate time at all locations. Our tour guide, Karl, was friendly, organized and well versed in the history and guiding us to the sites. The group we shared the trip with were fantastic! I would suggest name tags for a group that size (26)

The 8 day Iconic scenes of Ireland tour was awesome! The days went along smoothly and the views across Ireland really beautiful. Our group got along well and the tour guide was knowledgeable about Ireland and very friendly

We took the 18 day Iconic Britain,Scotland and Ireland tour. Our guide Fiona and driver Neil were top notch. Accommodations were very nice. Most of the food great, but found all dinners at the hotel limiting. The one night hotel stays kept us moving, but enjoyed the longer stays more. Covered alot of ground and saw alot of amazing sights.

This was lovely, I can recommend this tour company. My first bus tour, I was a bit apprehensive about sitting on a bus for long stretches, but that wasn't a problem at all. I was on the 14 days of Ireland tour. There were enough stops planned each day to stretch your legs or have a bathroom break. It was easy to hit your daily steps goal if you wished (but don't worry you won't miss anything if you don't/can't, the guided walks are at a very gentle pace). Our tour was early in the season, and as some places were flexible with our pre-booked time slots, our lovely tour guide Don O'Donoghue was able to arranged for us to do a couple of activities and photo ops that weren't in the initial itinerary (and you know you got assigned a great guide when the people at the various attraction, who all seem to know him/of him, only have good things to say. Same for our 3 local drivers). The group size was good, we got on very well very qickly, the bus was comfortable enough if a bit cold at times. The hotels were of a good standard and the food was tasty even though the desserts became rather repetitive. The farm lunch was a highlight. We were blessed with the weather and many laundrette sightings. Of course personal interests vary. I would have preferred to have a bit more time to walk around Derry and see Enniskillen castle (both cities were one night stops), and visit Belleek rather than the lacklustre Yeats grave.

We took the 14 day Iconic Scotland and Ireland tour and it was amazing. First of all we had the luck of the draw and got Paddy for our Guide/Driver he was brilliant and made the tour fun and lively. Paddy has a vast knowledge of Scottish and Ireland history and is a very skilled driver. The tour is smartly planned and everything was smooth with plenty of stops. The Hotels was all 4 and 5 stars the included meals were mostly excellent with a few being pretty average. We will do more tours with MyIreland and request Paddy for the guide as he was fabulous.

May 2024 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
We completed the 2-week tour of Scotland and Ireland during late April/early May. Pat, our driver and frequent tour guide throughout the entire trip, was absolutely fantastic. The quality of the hotels generally was good, though many did not have air conditioning, which was not an issue in April/May but might be a problem in the summer. The hotels in more rural areas were very isolated but the hotels in cities were centrally located, which made it easy to get out and see the city. The overall pace of the tour was on the energetic side with a full itinerary every day and no 'additional fee' optional activities. A minor negative for us was that we would have preferred to spend more time in Glasgow and Belfast (the visit to Belfast was especially brief). It was convenient to always have breakfast and dinner at the hotels included as part of the tour, but it would have been nice to venture to a local restaurant for dinner at least occasionally. Despite these suggestions for improvement, overall the tour was a very enjoyable experience

My best friend and I just returned from the 6 day tour during which Seamus Keogh was our driver and guide. Seamus and the tour were fantastic! The sites, the scenery, and the weather were wonderful and it was a pleasure not to have to change hotel rooms every night. This tour was a great way to get a large taste of Ireland!

We recently returned from the 10 day Iconic tour of Ireland. We had a fantastic time! Our driver was Tom Lavin and he was awesome! He's very informative and offered great suggestions to our group. The accomodations and dining were top notch. We highly recommend My Ireland Tours and it's an added bonus if Tom is your driver.

My son and I were on the 6 Day Iconic Ireland tour (May 5th - 10th) and had a wonderul time. Seamus Keough really made the tour special sharing his knowledge of the history and current day to day life in Ireland. Lots of opportunities to stop for a 'flash and dash'! Great group of people on the the trip and we saw so many spectacular sites. The Clayton Hotels in Dublin and LImerick were very nice with great morning breakfast buffets to get us started. All in all, it was grand!

May 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
Overall, the tour was very good. Our tour guide Ben Sullivan did an excellent job and answered our questions, provided insight, was entertaining, and went out of his way to accommodate all and make the tour the best it could be. The hotels we stayed at and the food were all very good. A few days got very long and there was sometimes little time between arriving at the hotels and having to go to dinner. A few stops were not great such as the Chocolate Factory and the Family Farm in Kilkenny, but most were more than expected. Some stops seemed rushed, but in total it was a great tour and a great value and we would definitely recommend it.

Our My Ireland Tour of Scotland and Ireland was an amazing experience and far exceeded our expectations! The history and beauty of the countries and the kindness of the people we met, made it a very special vacation, but what made it most memorable was our tour guide and driver, Pat Prendergast. He has an amazing memory and made the history come alive for us. He also has a wonderful sense of humor, is kind and patient and has a pleasant and soothing voice - and he sings well also. The bus we traveled in was extremely clean and comfortable and Pat is an excellent driver. We cannot say enough good things about this tour company and will continue to sing its praises to everyone we meet. Thanks for giving us such a wonderful experience!

When my family and I decided to visit Ireland we knew we wanted to take a tour. With the plethora of options, I am glad we decided to tour with My Ireland Tour. Seamus was our tour guide, and he was incredibly knowledgeable and super attentive to all of our needs while keeping us all on schedule. It was an awesome experience to see just a few of the gems the beautiful country of Ireland has to offer, and we would definitely recommend touring with My Ireland Tour to anyone interested, newbies or veterans! Special thanks also to Keith for his stellar communication and for helping us when we needed to switch our tour dates. Thanks again!!

We just returned from our Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour. It was wonderful! My husband and I both think this is the best trip we have ever had. My Ireland Tour set up a great itinerary; and they made the planning and arrangements so easy. Our driver/guide Pat was the best. His kindness, knowledge, humor, storytelling and caring for each of us was so evident the entire trip, and of course very much appreciated. The small group we traveled with was really great and we plan on continuing friendships with people we met. It was a bucket list item checked off, and we have such great memories from this trip that will be with us forever. We would highly recommend My Ireland Tour.

I did the Northern Ireland tour. Tour went very smoothly; lovely accommodations, good food, very comfortable bus, and our guide, Colm Clarke, had an encyclopedic knowledge of Irish history. The step on guides in Belfast and Derry explained “the troubles” clearly and with no bias. This is a great tour at a very reasonable price. Good value. I would travel with this company again. No complaints.

My husband and I just finished this amazing tour with MyIrelandTours! It was absolutely amazing our tour guide Harry Fisher was the perfect guide and I have not had a better guide. I have been on many tours and Harry made this tour utterly amazing! He kept us engaged and educated us on the sites we visited and on the history of Ireland. We couldn't have had a better experience. We definitely recommend this tour! It was the 8-day Iconic Ireland Tour. Ask for Harry!

My sister and I were on the 10-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour at the beginning of May, and it was wonderful! I would definitely recommend this tour company! Everything went so smoothly.This tour hit so many wonderful sites, the bus was large and comfortable, and the accommodations were very nice. We also got very lucky with the weather. It was beautiful. Also, can't say enough about our Tour guide, Sean O'Sullivan. He is wonderful/ knowledgeable regarding Ireland's history and culture, amazing driver, very personable, and truly cares about his tour group. If you're lucky enough to have him as your guide for your tour, you won't be disappointed.

This was my first time traveling to Ireland and also on a group tour. I went with my sister for a birthday trip. We were there from May 1st-10th. The weather was perfect with only 1 day of drizzle. Temperature just right for a jacket. It was windy in places but not cold. The group of 25 was very friendly and the bus driver, Sean, was a wealth of knowledge and personality. He made the trip fun, interesting, and engaging. He could not have been any better! The bus was roomy, immaculate, and very comfortable. The hotels were all top notch. Great hot showers, comfy beds, and lots of delicious food! There was a lot of walking but also plenty of time to rest & relax on the bus. A great combination. There was plenty of time to shop for Irish 'woolies' and other treasures! Do not hesitate to book with this company. I wish I could give it more than 5 stars! THANK YOU My Ireland Tour!!

Our family group had a wonderful experience on our tour which was customized to the amount of time that we had and the areas we wanted to visit. Our tour guide, Pat Cooney, was a real treasure- very knowledgeable and a delightful person. The accommodations were wonderful. All breakfasts were included and one lunch and one dinner. We were on our own to explore on most evenings. For others doing this type of tour, I would suggest that you research restaurants in the towns you’ll be visiting and make reservations in advance. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tours.

I have to give our recent tour a full five stars. First, nothing went wrong. The hotels were great and all the details were handled well. The coach was new and comfortable. The sites we visited were mind blowing. Castles and ruins and drop dead scenery, countryside, massive cliffs, quaint, cute cottage villages and immense cathedrals. So much history. I am not sure when you book tour if you can pick a tour guide but ours was very good. Karl White was very well organized, informed, and very interesting. I came back having a connection to Ireland that I didn’t have before. I recommend Karl if the timing works. Our MyIreland tour was our first and we are already planning the next.

May 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
What an amazing trip we had! We did the 10 day iconic scenes of Ireland tour and I have to say, as a first time traveler to Ireland, choosing this tour was the best way to see such a beautiful country. Our tour guide Tom was the best! His knowledge of the areas and the country as a whole along with his humor made the trip unforgettable. The coach was very comfortable so the days we spent a little more time on the bus weren’t bad at all. One of the things I loved most was how this tour supports each areas local economy. We stopped at some major tourist destinations of course, but also at many small businesses along the way. Being able to support local artists and businesses is important to me, and getting to do this on the tour was great. All of our hotels were beautiful and the food was delicious. Breakfast was a buffet with choices for every palate and dinners were well thought out, always with a vegetarian dish for those who wanted. Each dinner was a three course meal and we never left hungry! Tom was there if we had any issues and the minor one we had, he took care of right away with the hotel management. This tour also was great about making sure any food allergies and sensitivities are addressed before hand. One person in our group had a food sensitivity and never once did she feel that she didn’t have options for her meals. The level of care we received was above and beyond what you would expect. Our luggage was put on and off the coach by the staff and Tom, and then brought to our rooms when we got to each new hotel. The little details are not overlooked! I highly recommend traveling with My Ireland Tour!

This was our first tour experience and it was absolutely wonderful. We saw so much in such a short period of time, yet it never felt rushed. We had a perfect balance of plans and free time where we got to explore the things that interested us most. The activities that were organized for us went very smoothly without lines or waiting. We travel a lot and have always been hesitant to do an organized tour, but this one was perfect.

We recently returned from the Ancient Ireland mini-group tour with driver/guide David Breen, and it was wonderful!! David was a wealth of knowledge on any topic we asked him about, had a great sense of humor and kept everything incredibly organized. The accommodations were fantastic, especially Ballynahinch, and we saw so many amazing sites that it's hard to pick a favorite. The tour was max eight people, seven in our case, which was a perfect size, plus we had a great group of people on our tour.

He was very informative and knowledgeable with insights along the way. All of the hotels and meals were of good quality.

We saw a lot each day however it wasn't rushed. Each stop was well organized with restaurants, hotels and excursions expecting us with scheduled appointments. Our tour guide was GREAT - Karl White. He had such a wealth of knowledge about the country and history, also interesting info about each city and stop we made along the way. He was a highlight of the entire week.

I was a solo traveler! I travel a lot by myself. This was my first tour group vacation. Meet some great ladies and now have to new friends. Seamus did a 'grande' job on our 6 day small group tour! He is extremely knowledgeable, accommodating, fun, has a witty sense of humor that we ALL enjoyed. He is an honest man setting expectations with their unpredictable weather. . Excellent Driver! Always felt safe! The way he was able to maneuver that bus on some of those super narrow streets blows my mind away. The tour was good visited a lot of places in a short amount of time, which was perfect for me. Really enjoyed the two nights in Dublin and three in Limerick. I don't care for packing up and leaving everyday. I loved the small group (24 on my tour) with LOTS of room on the coach for everybody.

What an amazing experience! From start to finish, My Ireland Tours was top notch! It was our first time on an extended guided bus tour, and we are so glad we did it. There is no way we could have learned so much about Ism sad if we had done it on our own. Keith was so helpful and responsive throughout the booking process and beyond. Colm was the quintessential driver/ host. His knowledge of Ireland and its history was incredible; it was as if he were a walking encyclopedia! He really made the trip so fun and special for us. We also had an amazing group of people on the tour (26 of us). We highly recommend this tour!

Just returned from the Ancient Ireland Mini-Group tour with driver/guide David Breen. When asked by friends what the highlight of the trip was, my wife and I replied having David as our guide made the trip outstanding. He provides detailed insights into the areas we visit but also the social and economic environment in Ireland. Being on the minivan, we could easily converse with David as he drove us around the country, and he would answer any question we asked. The tour itself was a very good overview of the country of Ireland. Staying two nights at Ballynahinch was fantastic.

This tour was everything that we had hoped for, but then much more! From the moment we were picked up at the Dublin airport to our drop off 10 days later, our driver Colm was professional, personable, funny, knowledgeable, calm, and as he would say: la-de-da! The hotel accommodations were excellent and the included meals (breakfast & dinner) were delicious. We enjoyed an authentic Irish pub lunch of fish n chips one day as well as a home cooked meal at a local farmhouse. The admission to all the sites that you visit(Blarney Castle, Guiness, Kylemore Abbey, Christchurch, EPIC, Cliffs or Moher, etc) are included. And there was plenty of stops to enjoy the beautiful Irish countryside! What we especially appreciated was the size of the group (26 people), allowing you to get to know and make friends with your fellow travelers. We had never been on a tour and chose this tour based on previous reviews so I hope this review helps you in making a decision too. I've been telling everyone at home about My amazing Ireland Tour!

My Ireland Tours are top notch. The sites were selected in an interesting, historical and scenic way. The hotel accommodations were top-notch, as was the food provided throughout the trip. Our driver, Don Donoghue, was excellent, funny and entertaining. He was flexible and accommodating throughout the whole trip. The fact that this was a small group made the trip even more enjoyable as we were able to get to know each other quite well, and had a big hug fest at the end of the trip. Ireland is a must see, the people are really nice and the country's history is phenomenal. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone. A special thanks to Don for making the trip so fun.

May 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
My husband and I absolutely loved our time in Ireland! We were there from 4/15-4/24 and decided to do the 10 day iconic scenes tour. Colm was our guide and driver and he completely knocked it out of the park with his witty humor, broad knowledge, and kind nature. Since there is lots to see and do, there is a lot of driving, however, Colm was always making clever jokes, telling us stories, as well as sharing historical facts about almost everything we passed by. At the larger attractions, we were given 2-3 hours to explore by ourselves which we loved. My husband and I love to explore so it was nice having time to do our own thing and if we had any questions when we got back, Colm was always happy to indulge us. Pick up and drop off transfers went smoothly and there was never a moment where we felt nervous or unsafe. Our favorites include all of the castles and historical sites, cliffs of Moher, and Killarney! Around 4 pm average, we were taken back to the hotel and allowed time to wander around the town if we wanted. Colm always encouraged us to explore our surroundings when we were done with the daily tour. Our favorite highlight was hiking around Killarney National Park (something we did on our own time). Every single local we met was so kind and welcoming and the food was amazing! Highly recommend this tour!

My mom and I had a fantastic vacation in Ireland. Ray, our driver and guide was awesome! He was professional, knowledgeable and a safe driver. Since it was only two of us on the tour, Ray was very good at providing additional information at each point of interest, as well as giving us options for sites or lunch in each town/village. When we return to Ireland, we will definitely book through My Ireland Tour!

Seamus, From My Ireland Tour was an exceptionally knowlegeable tour guide, wise teacher, world class driver. He is Ireland. Smart, kind ,witty. Very attentive to all of our needs,he made us feel safe and informed as we visited Guinness, Blarney, Galway, Wicklow and more. I am an American of Irish descent, and this was my first trip to Ireland. I was fortunate to grow up with Irish parents and a family that was proud of their heritage and told so many stories as I grew up. Ireland is a beautiful treasure. Dublin is a perfect city in every way. The climate is oceanic, and can be at once Misty and mysterious…sunny and giddy..windy and wise. It really is a magical place to be.

How do we even begin to rave about this entire tour? Let's start with Kristel O'Connor in the main office who was so helpful in helping us set the tour itinerary itself and the types of lodging we requested. After some slight changes, we found a perfect trip. My wife and I decided upon a private tour, and Kristel nominated David Breen as our guide. From the moment we met David in Dublin, he treated us with kindness, hospitality and flexibility. David is a true gentleman without whom we would have been completely lost. He ensured we accessed each site by walking us to the gate, and walked us to the hotel front desk every evening. I am NOT a good passenger, but David is a professional driver who I always felt safe as our guide, even braking well ahead of seeing a small cat on the side of the road well ahead of the car. If you're considering a tour of Ireland, please look no further than the fantastic folks at My Ireland Tour!

He looked out for us and ensured we all had the information we needed. I highly recommend this company to anyone and will to everyone in my life looking to come to Ireland.

My family and I just returned from a six day trip with My Ireland Tours. It was a wonderful experience. Our accommodations were clean, charming, and welcoming. The private van that we used to travel from town to town was very well laid out. Each passenger had their own comfortable seat, which reclined, and everyone had a spectacular view of the beautiful countryside. Our driver, Mick told us the history of each area as well as some delightful stories to make us laugh. Everything was set up well to accommodate our group. Kristel was wonderful to work with in designing the tour for our needs in advance. If my family is up for it, I would do it all again!

Our recent trip to Ireland was wonderful from start to finish. We had a lovely group of family along which was a pure delight. But the key to our overall pleasure was our tour driver, Mick Keaton. He was knowledgable, agreeable, and a skilled driver. But best of all was his keen sense of Irish humor. He had us all laughing, dispite some awful winds, etc. I highly recommend him to any and all who are planning a try to the gorgeous Emerald Island. God bless you Mick

My family and I just got home from a 6-day tour on a private van with My Ireland Tours. I've been to Ireland 3 times before and this trip exceeded my expectations. The van was very clean and comfortable for all 8 of us. Our tour guide Mick was knowledgeable, funny and quick with his decision making when needed. We experienced extreme weather which made us change some of the itinerary, but Mick made every moment memorable. We were traveling with a few passengers that have mobility issues and he knew every step of the way how to guide us safely. I wouldn't change a thing about this trip, and I would highly recommend My Ireland Tours.

We were referred to My Ireland Tours by a friend who travelled with them last year. She told me I'd find Eric very easy to work with and that the tour was among her favorite travel experiences. She was right on both counts. With Eric, we were able to develop a tour that covered all of our key interests, plus he made some good suggestions. Importantly, everything was beyond smooth from day 1. Our driver/tour guide David Breen was top notch too. We highly recommend My Ireland Tours.

Just returned home from our “My Ireland Tour”-- this was an absolutely fantastic experience for all of us! Everything about our trip was wonderful! The bus was lovely, clean and comfortable, the scheduled tours were terrific— but most of all, it was our tour guide and driver Mick Keane who truly made our Ireland days special! Mick was an amazingly skilled driver who kept us safe through all kinds of weather and road conditions. He was always right on time, and absolutely brilliant and fun! Mick is bank of knowledge and humor, he kept us learning and laughing throughout our whole trip. We were thankful to have met Mick, and so very happy we chose 'My Ireland Tour'— a first class experience from beginning (Kristel is fabulous!) to the end— we were sad to leave.

I'm not a huge fan of bus tours. I took this one begrudgingly at the wives behest, but this has been one of the vacation pearls of my life. Our tour guide, Tom, is top notch. If you've not been to Ireland before, Then this is the essential trip to take through the Republic. I'm not easily impressed, hence why I don't like bus trips, BUT, This was spot on. Great hotels, The essence of all that is Ireland, And a top guide (Tom).

We had an amazing tour in Ireland. Kristel put together a great itinerary for our group of 15! She was always accessible thru email. Her correspondence and reminders for payments were appreciated. Hotels were very nice and centrally located.Tickets to all our tours were done and no waiting in any lines. Our tour guide Colm was fantastic! He was very informative and knowledgeable. We loved his sense of humor and made the drive a lot of fun. Thank you My Ireland Tour for a fantastic trip.

My Ireland Tour was absolutely amazing with everything from the planning to the actual trip. The only thing I didn't like was having to say goodbye! Our guide, John, was the GREATEST!! He was knowledgeable and passionate about Ireland and also very welcoming and so funny! I felt like we were family by the 2nd day! Thank you, John, for taking the time to make our trip the absolute best it could have been. We will be in touch soon to plan our next trip over.

We spend 10 days exporing Ireland with our wonderful driver and tour guide Tim. We chose to have a small party tour of just 4 of us. It was probably the easiest trip we have been on where everything went smoothly. My Ireland Tours had picked great highlights of Ireland. It was the perfect Tour to pick when you have limited time for planning. The places we stayed at were also top notch.

My wife and I recently completed the 10 Day Iconic Scenes tour of Ireland. The trip was awesome. We visited alot of sites, but did not feel too rushed. Ireland is such a beautiful country. We were in Cork for the St. Patrick's day parade, went to several pubs, visited several castles, kissed the Blarney stone, toured Guiness and Jameson, and much more. The food provided was tasty and plentiful. Our tour guide, John Dennany, was informative and entertaining. You can't go wrong with My Ireland Tour!

We planned a ambitious adventure with a group of 42 travelers. Spending 8 days traveling from Belfast to Derry and down to Galway before returning to Dublin. The support and resources from My Ireland Tours was exceptional. Our tour guide Pat Prendergast could not have been more knowledgable or helpful. Shout out to Krystel for her guidance. 5 start all the way. Thanks for creating a trip of a lifetime for all our guests.

Where to start? Our driver, John, was AMAZING! He Was funny ,accommodating ,informative, And most definitely one of the best parts of this trip. We toured with a group of 20 people, whom we now call friends. As you can see from the photos I was the self chosen photographer of the group. Every single day was a joy, Although I will say that the 10 day iconic door was a bit more physical than I was aware, I pushed myself, and I didn't regret it a single day. There was a waterful that I would drive a really thought that we should see but it seemed to stole the climb was a bit too steep for me..so. I opted to stay on the bus. Our tour guide/driver, Came to take me off the bus and personally hold my arm and escort me up every single step until I stood before the water fall With tears of my eyes. Such a beautiful sight to behold and he was right it was worth the journey. Im turning 60th this year, my Husband is 70 And we had the most amazing time together. We were able to see most of the things that were on my bucket list and we shall return to see the rest. This was all inclusive so the amount of money that it saved us was incredible. The days were well planned out,;the meals in the hotels were fabulous! Thank You For the most memorable vacation ever... And a special thank you to our driver and tour guide John

Wonderful trip with mix of visiting larger cities, small towns and amazing stops at Cliffs of Moher, Giant Causeway and Glenveagh National park. Our driver/guide, Ger Murphy, was kind, knowledgeable and a great sense of humor. Hotels were very nice and in ideal locations. We all enjoyed the trip!

Highly recommend My Ireland Tour! My husband and my two sons (age 15 and 21) had a great time (despite the weather). While we did spend a lot of time on the bus, the ease of being driven place to place with easy access to all the sights was worth it. Loved that tour group was 26 people but we used a 52 passenger bus. Seamus, our driver and guide was great.
Amber Pepper
March 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
Loved the driver and the destinations. Wish we had more time at each stop. Some excursions seemed very rushed. Really only had time to get out, stretch legs, and find a restroom at a few places. As for the bus, it was very comfortable overall. Avoid telling passengers to 'not use the restroom unless it's an emergency'. It made some of us feel, well, pressured. Both hotels were lovely, and our group enjoyed having a restaurant at each hotel in which to relax at the end of long days. Please consider informing travelers in advance of points of interest at each stop. There were times when we got off the bus and felt a little lost, like, 'where should we go', and 'what's the best use of our time here?' Mostly we ended up walking around aimlessly, finding a pub to pee in, and then getting back on the bus.

Our tour was absolutely amazing! It was everything we hoped for our family had the best time and made memories to that we will cherish. Our tour Seamus was informative and so courteous he made our trip so enjoyable. From the Blarney Stone, to Galway City , to Ring of Kerry and Cliffs of Mohr we loved every minute and can't wait to go again!

We just got back from a short but fantastic tour. Everything was well planned and as described...except for the weather. :) Shannon answered all of our questions before the trip and our driver, Seamus, was great too. The other people on the tour were fun and I appreciated that the bus is only 50% full so you can easily move around. The tour was a good selection of different activities and while we would have liked a little more time in some places we never felt rushed. We would love to go back and would absolutely choose another My Ireland Tour.

Having been on other tours, I can say this one is absolutely 5 stars. Our tour guide Sean was first class all the way; he is a fantastic historian with a near photographic memory, it seems. All the accommodations were terrific; they go above and beyond, truly giving you your money's worth.
Brian Enser
November 2023 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
We chose the 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour with My Ireland Tour (or MIT as the hotels labeled us) after looking at several tour companies online. We picked MIT because they offered plenty of interesting activities at a reasonable cost, it was a small group tour, and they are a family-run business from Ireland. We could not have made a better choice. Everything about the trip was well organized and expertly executed. Many activities which cost extra on other tours are included, such as dinners, airport transfers and baggage handling. Our tour guide/driver, Tom Lavin, was professional, interesting, and funny. He provided a wonderful historical and real life perspective which made the bus time fly by. Eric was also very responsive and helpful before and after the tour. The visits to small businesses like Celtic Crystal, Hazel Mountain Chocolate and the herding demonstration were a welcome addition and fascinating. The only activity that seemed like a tourist trap was the thatched roof village. If you have mobility issues it is best to request a walk-in shower because some of the hotel bathtubs are very tall. We highly recommend this tour and hope to book another trip with MIT.

Ireland had been on my husband and my bucket list for over a decade. This tour was a dream come true and even more. Our amazing guide was Paddy O'Farrell and he was top shelf! We saw so many exquisitely stunning places and learned the deep history of Ireland and Scotland. The bus had plenty of space to spread out. Hotels were nice, especially Eske Castle and Dromhall in Killarney. If you want to truly experience Ireland and have an emotional connection to it's past and present, this is a must do!! Highly, highly recommend!!

October 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
It was a fabulous invigorating trip. We highly recommended the tour of Scotland and Ireland. Paddy was a wealth of knowledge and kept us enthralled with his knowledge of history relating to the two countries. I would suggest a map of our tour to be given to participants. This may seem old school however it would have been beneficial to see where we were going and where we had been once home. Thanks to My Ireland Tour for your amazing service.

October 2023 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
We (my two adult grandchildren along with myself) had a wonderful time on the Scotland-Ireland tour. Paddy was a very good tour guide as well as an excellent bus driver! We learned a great amount of history of both countries from him on the tour as well about the country side & cities we visited! The stay in the hotels, palaces & castles were grand. The food superb! The last evenings entertainment was very delightful! Most enjoyable 14 day tour! Thank you!

We recently returned from a great tour of Galway, Killarney area and Dublin in late September 2023. John McSweeney was our driver and he made the trip very relaxing and educational. I couldn't imagine this past trip without him or future ones. Couldn't recommend My Ireland Tour or John higher.

We were on a 13 day tour of Ireland with our friends and our driver Tim Horgan. The trip was very well planned for us by My Ireland Tour. We seen all that we wanted to and really enjoyed having Tim to do the driving for us on the narrow and busy roads so that we could enjoy the scenery. The hotels were all 4 star and even spent some nights in a hunting lodge and castle. This was a very memorable trip for us. Thank you My Ireland Tour. Thank you, Tim, for the wonderful time and taking care of us.

Just returned from the 10 day iconic scenes of Ireland tour and it was far above what I expected. Our guide/driver was Tom and he is fantastic. He kept us entertained on the bus with his endless knowledge of Ireland and his hilarious jokes. There was certainly no shortage of laughter on the bus. We saw so much of Ireland I never would have seen had I traveled on my own. The company has put a lot of thought into creating excellent experiences for all their guests. Some of the hotels were better than others but all were comfortable. The food did get a bit monotonous but overall was tasty. We did opt to go out for dinner in town a couple of nights to mix it up a bit. I would definitely go on another tour with this company. If I were really lucky maybe Tom would be the guide again.

We were so fortunate to find My Ireland Tour for our 2-week tour of Ireland. Their Tour Guide, Tim Horgan was personable, knowledgeable, experienced, friendly, helpful, and attentive to our needs.

We had the most amazing time on our family adventure. Our guide Peter Kelly could not have been any better! Always teaching us things along the way. He made sure we always had what we needed and made everything run so smoothly! He added extra stops at waterfalls and side trips for shopping! My Irleand organized everything so efficiently. They had a back hotel ready when our ferry was delayed. We will definitely be recommending them!

This was a whirlwind tour of Scotland and Ireland. Walking in history with Pat's indepth narration brought the people and places to life. The lodging and meals were as expected. The Castle stay was an unexpected treat. Coming from the desert, the overwhelming green country side and water, water everywhere will last until my next visit.

My wife and I just returned from a 14 day tour of Scotland and Ireland with My Ireland Tours. Our driver was Paddy O’Farrell and you could only be lucky enough to get him as your guide/ driver. This was the trip of lifetime and Paddy made the trip so much more. His knowledge is amazing and his driving was 100% on point. He was personal and funny , and really made the trip that much better. My Ireland Tours was professional and worth every penny we spent.

Wow! We we just returned from the 14 day for Ireland experience tour. It was amazing! Our Tour Guide, Shephard, Information Manager, comedian, and Professional - was Mr. Eamonn Broderick. Our group came together and meshed from the first night we met. We encouraged each other and together, enjoyed each stop on this fabulous and phenomenal tour experience. My wife celebrated her 70th birthday on this trip, and My Ireland Tours connected with each Hotel along the way to make it a special experience. They had a card and chocolates in the every room. The weather cooperated too, but it was our driver, Eamonn Broderick, who brought the whole thing together and made every opportunity special.

My husband and I loved our trip. Our guide, Tom, was the BEST. He was knowledgeable about all of the areas we travelled to and liked to slip a little humor in to keep things fun. He really took care of our group and made sure we were all able to experience as much as we could while still giving us some time to explore.

Where to start! To begin, Kristel was super responsive when helping to plan our tour to Ireland. We chose the Ancient Ireland tour, with a few changes which Kristel facilitated with no problem. We were a group of 8 and chose to go with a private driver. We arrived in Ireland from the US a day before our tour started just to acclimate. The next morning Pat, our fabulous driver, picked us up from our centrally located Dublin hotel for our tour of Dublin, accompanied by Caroline our city guide. Caroline was a delight and very knowledgeable. The rest of our tour was spent with Pat. We love Pat! The amount of information he imparted whilst navigating the challenging roads of Ireland was amazing! When we wanted to change plans to perhaps stop somewhere, or even skip a stop, he went with the flow. Pat was unfailingly pleasant and fun, facilitated our tours at all our stops, and was really a pure joy. Our accommodations arranged by My Ireland were excellent. We were very happy with all of our hotels/manor houses. Finally, Ireland is an incredibly beautiful country, with very friendly people. My Ireland Tours by taking care of us so very well, allowed us to enjoy our trip even more than we expected. It was epic! We highly recommend My Ireland Tour Company.

Loved the entire 14 day Scotland/Ireland Tour. Our driver/tour guide Paddy O’Farrell made the whole experience that much better. We felt very safe with his superior driving skills and appreciated the knowledge and love he shared about both countries. The itinerary was rich in its history of both countries as well as the beauty of the locations we stopped in. The 26 person group was a bonus, plenty of room on the bus. Hotels/Castles/Palaces were beautiful. Our first tour and it was something we’ll never forget. Thank you!Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour

We were so fortunate to have enjoyed the 10 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour with our son, his girlfriend and her parents. What an amazing trip it was. We enjoyed the history and beautiful country we got to explore during our trip. Our guide Sean O’Sullivan was not only knowledgeable but also witty, friendly and fun to be around. We couldn’t have asked for a better driver or guide. Every where we went we already had knowledge of what we were seeing and the history surrounding it thanks to Sean. The whole trip was so enjoyable we made many friends, saw incredible sights and had so much fun. Thank you My Ireland Tours for your expertise we will definitely come back to your beautiful country. Everything was top notch from the hotels to the dining. We were happy to be able to visit different cities and sites during the 10 action packed days. Dawn and Larry Roach

WOW! What an awesome vacation! It was everything we expected and more! We lucked out on some gorgeous October weather. Our tour guide Sean was amazing. He had so much knowledge about Ireland and was eager to share it with us. We did the 10 day essential tour and we felt it was a nice mixture of Southern Ireland and all the Hot Spots you need to see. I would definitely recommend it. I will be looking at some other tours that My Ireland Tour has available All I have to say is 'Don’t Wait, Book Today!'

The tour was amazing! Coordination before and during the trip was excellent and everything was very enjoyable. Don was very informative and funny. He kept us informed of our schedule frequently and tweaked the schedule so we had more time in certain locations. He also helped coordinate two additional activities. I would definitively book again!
Sherry Leads
October 2023 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
We did the Scotland and Ireland 14 day tour with Pat as our tour guide. It was fantastic. Pat at one point had to pass another bus and there was 2 inches between his side mirror and the other bus. Pat did not hesitate and its impressive with how little room there is on the road and how Pat negotiated it effortlessly every time. I would not want to drive in Europe . I appreciated the fact that I could see the country and relax in a roomy bus and I didn't have to rely on a garmin. Also a couple of the places we stayed were 5 star hotel quality. The fact that two of your meals a day are taken care of is an added bonus. Thanks for a grand tour of my ancestoral homeland.

October 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
I had been wanting to get overseas for several years and finally decided to just do it. My Ireland Tour was amazing, as far as how easy everything was to set up. I went solo, so it took the pressure off having to figure out all the transportation and lodging. What I also liked was that after doing activities/seeing sites with the group, you had a bit of free time to take off on your own. Don, our tour guide, was very informative and funny as well.
Jane Manning
October 2023 • Ancient Ireland Tour
We recently took the 8 day Ancient Ireland Kerry tour. It was wonderful. This tour gives a great overview and takes you to many beautiful and interesting places. Our tour guide David was funny, accommodating, and informative without being overly chatty. The time provided at the attractions was appropriate. Tour vans were comfortable with everyone having their own window. The hotels are fabulous, particularly Ballynahinch and Faithlegg, and the meals were outstanding. My Ireland Tours communicated well with us over the months leading up to the tour. Be sure to arrive in Dublin a day early so you are ready to really enjoy your first day. I highly recommend this tour and tour company.

At short notice my partially disabled wife and I were able to arrange a visit to Ireland. Kristel at 'My Ireland Tour' was immediately responsive and arranged a 10 day private tour for us. She responded to our custom requests and arranged a perfect itinerary with excellent hotel and castle accommodation, a comfortable car and a superb driver- guide. David Breen was a retired professional, who was extremely knowledgeable, had a great sense of humour and was a very safe-driver, all of which made the travel very informative and relaxing. He was always very punctual and helpful, but non-intrusive. We highly recommend 'My Ireland Tour' for your Ireland tour.

October 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
Fantastic tour for a whistle stop tour of Ireland. The hotels were upscale of the usual tour accommodation and the bus was comfortable and very clean. The tour guide/driver Philip could not have done more to make sure we had everything we needed and even managed to sing us a couple of lovely Irish songs. I highly recommend this tour company.

October 2023 • Custom / Private Tour
We can't say enough on how great our experience was with My Ireland Tour. Eric assisted in our booking a private driver and vehicle for our 11-day tour of Ireland. Eric answered all our questions and was timely with his responses back to us. I had narrowed our search to a few tour companies, but Eric's follow through proved to be the difference in our decision. We also can’t say enough out our driver, Pat. We couldn't have asked for a better driver. Pat was tremendous in keeping us on schedule, was very knowledgeable and was able to recommend some stops on our tour that really made our trip that much more special. We decided against a self-drive tour and after seeing Pat maneuver some of the narrow roads, we feel we made the right decision. If you’re considering a trip to Ireland, give these folks a try!

October 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
This was my first time traveling Solo and My Ireland Tours planned and executed this trip to perfection. From the details provided on their website, to my first contact and every subsequent communication leading up to my departure. This trip was Fantastic, and everything worked out seamlessly. My Ireland Tours specializes in expert-led cultural and iconic tours around Ireland as well as Scotland. The group size was small (26ppl), the accommodations were very nice, and the planned meals were tasty. Our professional Guide and Driver, Tom Lavin, was amazing - passionate, educational, engaging, and amusing. The schedule was well-planned, mixing relaxation time with action and not-to-be-missed opportunities to visit locally owned businesses. The travelers are clearly at the center of itinerary planning, and attention to detail is unparalleled. My 25 other traveling companions, 9 of which were also Solo travelers, in my group were wonderful. We started off as strangers but quickly formed bonds that will last for many years to come. Their friendship and comradery truly added to the enjoyment of the Tour. I highly recommend My Ireland Tours to anybody looking for an enjoyable, relaxing, informative vacation with good meals where all the details are handled for you - they will not disappoint! For my fellow travelers: May the sun shine warm upon your face, The rains fall soft upon your fields, And, until we meet again, May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

October 2023 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
Just returned from a 10 day Iconic Tour of Ireland. I have to say that from initial booking to final drop off, they were the best organized tour company I have used. Communication before the tour was excellent, and I felt that I had a personal relationship with the company before actually meeting our tour guide and driver, TOM LAVIN. If you are lucky enough to have TOM as your guide/driver, then you are lucky enough! Tom was not only a great driver but also an exceptional tour guide. Every day we had a history lesson, a cultural and political lesson and a comprehensive description of everything we were going to see. He is also wonderfully funny, which made the time on the bus fly by. I loved the small tour group, as it gave us plenty of room to spread out in the bus without having someone breathing down your neck. It also made it easy to learn about everyone else on the tour. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tours to my friends. It was an exceptional experience from the day I made the initial enquiry to the moment we off loaded at the airport. Many thanks to Eric, Tom and Sharron for providing such a great experience.

This trip was beautiful. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and just the right level of friendly. He know when to share his knowledge and when to let us sleep lol. This was a very action packed tour. Wish we would have had a little more time in each place. But it was timed almost perfectly.

October 2023 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
I took the 10 day Iconic tour and it totally exceeded all of my expectations in every area. The way it was set up allows you to relax and enjoy every aspect of the History, Culture, Iconic Sites, Food and Nightlife in a way that caters to each and every member of the Tour. Tom Lavin was our guide and if you are lucky enough to get Tom as your guide I can assure you that you have best. I would rate him 100 out of 100. Just do it....take a My Ireland Tour.

Four of us booked a 6 day Iconic Tour of Ireland. First time travelers with this tour group. I can say we thoroughly enjoyed our time with Don as our driver and Irish 'expert'. He was lively, informative and extremely helpful as we went through the tour. He kept us up-to-date on the daily events and prepared us for the next day. We would definitely book again with My Ireland Tours. I'd also like to mention the office help we received from Shannon was great. Thank you all for making our trip special and memorable!

Pat was a wealth of knowledge and saw to our every need. The group felt like family after only a few days. This was a dream come true. So much to see, and do. Loved Edinburgh, Inverness, St. Andrew, our nights in the castles as well as our days at Cliffs of Moher and Giants Causeway. Too many high points to list them all. I can't wait to go back.

Our tour was absolutely phenomenal. Ireland is gorgeous and the greenest place in the planet. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tour. It will be money and time well spent. You will not regret your choice. The sites, the timing, the accommodations, the staff, the drivers, and the people of Ireland are incredibly friendly. This will be a trip you will talk about for years. I'm definitely going back and I am definitely using My Ireland Tour again.

We chose the Scotland/Ireland tour and it was more than incredible. Paddy was our tour guide, he was so knowledgeable, funny and somehow kept all 26 of us tourists on schedule. We went to all of our scheduled destinations as well as a couple “off the beaten path” stops that only added to an already amazing trip. We saw more beauty and history than we ever could have imagined. If you get the opportunity to tour Ireland (and Scotland) with My Ireland Tour, you will not be disappointed. I highly recommend and hope to go back again as well with one of their other packages. TRIP OF A LIFETIME!

We went on the 10 day iconic tour and it was amazing! Our tour guide was awesome! We are already talking about coming back for another trip! Hotels were great and our tour guide gave us recommendations on great restaurants and pubs to visit at night! I recommend this company to everyone

My Ireland Tour created a magical experience I will never forget! Our guide, Michael, was phenomenal! He spun the tales of Irelands's lore while we drove through spectacular views. We thought we had our money's worth after just 3 days of our 10 day Deluxe Irish Castle tour. Every stop was new and exciting. We wouldn't have known to google most of our favorite adventures - and would've missed them, had we tried to do this on our own. We made new friends and are already planning our next trip.

We did the 10-day Deluxe Castle Tour for my boyfriend's 60th birthday in May. It was phenomenal. Our tour guide/driver, Colm, was fantastic! His historical knowledge of everything we saw made all the difference as we visited so many significant sites throughout the country. We would highly recommend this tour and company to anyone considering an Ireland tour; we knew we didn't want to deal with driving on our own, and we wanted something special for this trip. We got exactly that! At every stop, the hotels and local restaurants mentioned that My Ireland Tour was top of the line. The accommodations were top notch, including the many meals that were included in the tour price. I would not hesitate to book your trip with them, but do it fast as it seems they sell out every one of them!

We just returned from a great tour of Scotland. We had used My Ireland Tour a few years ago to tour Ireland, and it was such a terrific tour when 14 of us decided to do a tour of Scotland it was an easy decision to use this company again. Planning was incredibly easy. All the hotels we stayed at were very comfortable and located in the best of places. The sights we saw will never be forgotten. Perhaps the best part of the tour was our guide, George. He was very knowledge and really showed us the best of sights, even making changes when needed based on whether conditions. I would definitely recommend this company for any tour you may be thinking about.

We just returned from a fabulous 10 day private tour. Our driver, Pat, is what made this experience so wonderful. He was very knowledgeable about all the beautiful sites we saw and answered all our questions. He was very flexible about stopping and making small changes when we asked. He often had funny stories to go along with the information that he gave us. We all thoroughly enjoyed his company. The hotels were all lovely, we especially liked Lough Eske Castle. I would definitely recommend MyIrelandTours and hope to use their services again in the futures.

4 of us had a driver and mini van for the dingle and ring of Kerry, Dublin and Galway. We did more of the ancient tour with a castle, a country manor house. The choice of hotel saw spot on… all with great locations and access to the sites. We particularly enjoyed a vast to the Aran islands off the Mohr cliffs coast. Galway and Killarney were our favorite areas. I had no idea where to go ad this company did an excellent job in taking us to Al of the sites. Highly recommend. I would not recommend driving yourself as the roads can be narrow and on the edge of cliffs. EXCELLENT trip, great company!

My wife and I recently returned from the 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour and would highly recommend it. From the moment we were warmly greeted at the Dublin airport by our guide Philip, to the moment we departed for home, we had a pleasurable experience. The itinerary, hotels, transportation, sights, downtime and meals were all perfect, especially our guide Philip. He was a wealth of knowledge and was entertaining as well, what a jewel! We always felt safe with him at the wheel on the often narrow windy roads. We had a fun group of fellow travelers, and that was a bonus. We returned home tired but with new friends and lovely memories of a beautiful place and time! If you are on the fence about taking this trip, do it!

We did the 6 day Iconic Ireland tour coming from United States for the first time and John was our guide. John is such a wonderful person and so knowledgeable we could have never seen the amazing scenes without his experience and AMAZING driving skills. He adjusted our schedule a few days to give us the chance to see even more amazing things in Ireland. The bus was very clean and all the people on the bus were so much fun. The hotels were clean and safe. We were so happy with the entire experience and will definitely use the tour company again. Thank you so much again. Eileen and Rich.

This was the vacation of a lifetime. This was our anniversary trip, and it honestly couldn't have been any better. Beautiful scenery, comfortable historic accommodations, amazing sites to visit and great food. We had the absolute best tour guide. Colm provided entertainment and education as he drove us through the Irish Countryside. History lessons, local color, and jokes that had the whole bus rolling with laughter. Highly recommend and would do over in a heartbeat.

October 2023 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
The 14-Day Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour was simply incredible. The itinerary was filled with historical landmarks and nightly accommodations at 4-5 star hotels or castles. What enhanced the 2 weeks was our Guide-Driver Paddy O'Farrell as he moved throughout Scotland and Ireland, maintaining a schedule that ensured we had time for meals, made all our stops on time and arrived at our hotels in time for happy hour and dinner. Paddy also mentioned many historical facts and pointed out key landmarks. Highlights in Scotland included: The Edinburgh Castle, The Royal Mile and the Holyrood Palace. We stopped for photo opts at the bridge at St. Andrews, cruised on Loch Ness and visited Sterling Castle. After taking a ferry ride to Dublin, we enjoyed the majesty of the Ireland landscapes. Key points of interest were the Cliffs of Moher, the Giant's Causeway, then stopping in Galway for a sheepdog demo and the Glengowla Mines. Paddy stopped at Pat Cohan's bar where we had a beer and took photos of this iconic bar from 'The Quiet Man'. We visited the Blarney Castle where we kissed the Blarney stone and then spent time at the Blarney Woollen Mills. The trip would not have been complete without a few hours at the Guinness Storehouse and finally a dinner and traditional Irish music at the Merry Ploughboy Pub. Truly a memorable vacation which enlightened all of us about the history and culture of Scotland and Ireland plus incredible pictures to remember all these great moments. I highly recommend this tour and, if you're lucky, you'll get Paddy O'Farrell as your guide.

My group of 6 had a wonderful time on our 5 night Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. Damian our guide was a treasure trove of information and a delight with a great sense of humor. A tropical storm didn't keep him from showing us around the Ring of Kerry. We were able to see many highlights of the country including the Cliffs of Moher, Glendalough, Blarney Castle, and Galway. My Ireland tour made everything so easy from airport transfers, to accommodations, to general communication. Greatly recommend

October 2023 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
My husband and I went on the Iconic Scotland and Ireland tour with My Ireland Tours. It was a total class act. The hotels and the food were fantastic. Both Scotland and Ireland are majestically beautiful. We saw so many wonderful sites. Everything would have been just places on a map without our Driver/Tour Guide Paddy O' Farrell. With Paddy at the helm we were in great hands. He was the ultimate professional! Paddy was very knowledgeable and educational about both Scotland and the Emerald Isle. Our tour bus traveled many miles along the narrow winding roads of both countries. Paddy's driving skills were magnificent. He made time for us to see many places not included on the tour. He always took great care of us all.

Our family traveled to Ireland and took the 6-day Iconic Ireland tour and it was everything beyond our expectations. Our tour guide was helpful, friendly and extremely entertaining. Johnny made the tour enjoyable for even my children. I strongly recommend using the company for your tour.

My Ireland Tours was absolutely incredible! From start to finish the process was seamless and so efficient. Claire helped me and my mom book our tour with them and answered every single question we had prior to our trip. Our tour guide and driver Dave was phenomenal. He was always on time each morning and listened to us if we wanted to do something or had a question. He was extremely informative regarding history and knowledge about all the different places we got to visit. My mom and I booked a private tour with this company and it was the best decision we made. We got to see so much of Ireland that we would not have been able to see if we did not book with them. Claire and Dave both made our trip that much more special so thank you. My mom and I are so happy with how everything turned out including my dream of getting to stay in a Castle! Dave introduced us to 'craic' and we loved every moment of it! If anyone is thinking of booking a trip to Ireland and wants to see as much as you can in an orderly fashion book with this company! We were always where we needed to be, Dave was so organized even when he teased about where are we going LOL. He constantly told us this is our trip so if we wanted to spend more time somewhere we could. Truly an exceptional trip thanks to My Ireland Tour. Thank you for an amazing trip and wonderful memories!

October 2023 • Custom / Private Tour
Slainte' ! With the help of My Ireland Tour, we had a fantastic time in Ireland! They basically let us design the places and stops we wanted to make and then provided a driver to get us there! Our sweet driver, Pat, was knowledgable, accommodating and helpful! I was worried it may be awkward to be with a stranger for six days, but he was so sweet that we all missed him when he wasn't with us! The hotels were placed in the heart of the action each night so we could walk to shops, restaurants and pubs with ease or the need for additional transportation. Because My Ireland Tour had taken care of 'tickets' for our pre-planned stops, it was delightful to have Pat escort us to the entrance, talk with the 'gate keepers', and then pick us up when we were done. So many details that were 'magically' done for us....parking, entrance fees/tickets, restaurant choices, AND we didn't have to worry about traffic, directions, getting gas, insurance etc!! The van was clean and comfortable as well. What's not to like!? 100% recommended! Additionally, My Ireland Tour, was careful not to cram too much into a single day. We ran into other groups that had to drop a stop or rush through because their tour hadn't been planned carefully. Pat said that My Ireland Tour is the best at making sure the day's pace is well-planned. We also ran into couples driving themselves through Ireland and they weren't sure the marriage was going to outlast the self-driven tour! 😉 If you're on the fence, jump off and onto My Ireland Tour!

October 2023 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
The 10 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour in September exceeded my expectations. The excursions were well organised, the hotels were excellent and the meals were lovely (slightly repetitive but each hotel cooked and served the traditional Irish dishes differently). The group seemed particularly friendly and welcoming, the weather was amazing and the icing on the cake was having Tony as driver/guide. He was entertaining and informative, competent and professional. I felt I learned so much about Irish history and culture as well as appreciating the beauty of the island. It was my first time on an organised guided coach holiday but won't be my last - I am planning to do the Northern Ireland Tour next year. Thank you My Ireland Tour for an enjoyable and memorable holiday.

Don the tour guide and drive was great. He got us to every place safely and was funny and gave so much info. All included was great that did not have to spend extra money. The breakfast and dinners were large and good choices. We covered the must see spots around the country. Would recommend others to do the 14 day tour. Hotels were also very nice.

October 2023 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
Oh my goodness this trip was well done from start to finish! We chose the 14 day tour of Ireland. It's lovely, first of all, that this company does not jam pack the bus full of people, as with saw with other tours. Our group could stretch out and have breathing room on the bus. Second, their drivers are incredible! We had Phillip as our driver the first two days and he even came to get my daughter and I when our flight was delayed into the afternoon. He sang for the tour on the bus which was a delight and was knowledgeable about all he drove us to! Our driver the 3rd day of the trip onward was Don, and I cannot tell you how safe and cared for the whole tour felt with Don at the helm. He got to know each of us and our needs and he even put up with my need for lots of bathroom stops (giving us all a heads up when the next stop would be) because the one on the bus is only for emergencies. Don eventually sang for us as well, and he needs to give himself more credit, because he did well! His sense of humor and knowledge paired well with our friendly banter and curiosity as a tour group! The tour tended to focus on highlights and icons of Ireland, which is great for a first trip there. By the time we were scheduled for the 3rd distillery of the trip, we were kind of wanting to see something else, so my daughter and I decided to go to the Trinity Library tour and Book of Kells exhibit, and Don was understanding and checked in with us to assure we got back to the hotel safely. Can't thank Don enough for all he did on the tour and the effort he put into extra events we could choose to attend. I'd recommend this tour to anyone and I'd love to go back again through this company for another tour because I trust their staff and the way they do business!

My husband and I just returned from My Ireland Tour. We were scheduled for a one week tour in Scotland and a one week tour in Ireland. John Dennany was an excellent driver and tour guide. Unfortunately we had to leave the tour early due to an illness. John took us to the emergency room and later came back and brought us our bags. At this point we decided to leave the tour and fly back home. John made sure we had everything we needed before he returned back to the tour. We could not ask for a better tour guide, he was genuinely concerned about our welfare. We wish your company had a hundred more just like John. He was the best!

We had such a lovely time on our tour. The process with My Ireland Tour was easy and straightforward. The route was beautiful and full of so much history. We loved all of the stops along the way. The bus was comfortable and a great way to get all over Ireland without worrying about driving. Our tour guide Tom was so kind and helpful. We truly adored him and said we would go back if we knew he'd be our guide.

My Wife and I took our dream trip to Ireland for our 30th Anniversary and the 10 day castle tour was ourstanding. Tom Lavin our guide was always on top of the Itinerary, genuinely informative, and his driving was smooth and flawless, as the roads in Ireland can be tricky. Food and hotels were on spot. This Itinerary was well planned and gets you to experience a broad view of the country, which was appreciated since we are novice travelers. We made some great friends in our group.

What a lovely trip My Ireland Tour planned and executed for the Renzoni Family. The process of custom curating the trip for us was very easy. All staff were responsive and accommodating. John M, our Drive Guide was a very knowledgeable, obliging and capable driver and guide. He was just so pleasant each and every day! He worked at adapting the trip on the fly to accommodate both the weather (storm Agnes was quite a soaking!!) and personal requests. He also had very good restaurant recommendations when we were not sure where to have lunch or dinner.

We had a lovely tour of southern Ireland with My Ireland Tour. Eric did a great job customizing the tour for us and the 9 Seater van was super spacious and comfy to travel in.

Highly recommend this tour company for any adventures in Ireland.

If there were more than 5 stars, I'd be adding them! My husband and I just returned from the 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour and it was amazing. Our driver-tour guide Tony McGoey was wonderful. Tony made the trip more enjoyable that we imagined it would be. Tony is so much fun, knowledgeable about all things Ireland and made the trip effortless. The pace of the trip was relaxing but included so much, we came back feeling that we really experienced Ireland, we absolutely want to return to this beautiful county. We enjoyed the free time that was incorporated into the pace of the trip and found the hotel accommodations to be very nice. We felt the value of the trip for what we paid was excellent. Thank you Tony and the My Ireland Tour team, this was a dream/bucket list trip and we had a wonderful time!

Ron Mayhorn
October 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
Overall we'd. rate our tour 4.7/5 stars. Our tour guides (Pat and David) were absolutely phenomenal. They were knowledgeable, friendly and flexible. Our accommodations were great, lovely rooms except Clontarf Castle in Dublin the rooms were quite small. Food and service was excellent although the night waitstaff at Ballyseede could have been a bit more cordial. Our top rated hotel would hands down be Ballynahinch (5/5 for everything there). An incredible amount of territory was covered in 8 days I wouldn't change the destinations however at times it felt like we were 'racing' to get to our next destination. On day 7 we had to omit one of our stops it was too far distant in order to arrive at our Dublin hotel in time. In general a wonderful tour and tour company I would highly recommend to anyone particularly if it's your first time to Ireland and also if you desire a private tour. The price was reasonable and competitive.

October 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
Our driver, John, was absolutely delightful. He was so fun and informative. The hotels we stayed in were so elegant. We had a wonderful tour of the Scottish and Irish countryside. We visited so many castles and learned so much of the history in both countries. I would highly recommend MyIrelandTour to anyone who wants a fabulous tour of Ireland and Scotland.
Tim O'Leary
October 2023 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
My wife and I returned from a 14 day tour of Scotland and Ireland with John Dennany and we are just amazed at the level of service, courtesy and how much can be crammed into 14 days! John was on the spot from day one at the airport right up to day 14 dropping us off again. His entire focus was on making each guest feel like it was their tour. His sense of humor and Irish lilt was very welcome as he explained history, geography and told jokes. He made every effort to accommodate special requests and always found a pub when it was necessary. Even rest room stops offered something to see. I will never forget John and will heartily recommend My Irish Tours to anyone planning to visit Ireland.

October 2023 • Historic Irish Castle Tour
We completed the Historic Castle tour Sept 2023 extremely pleased and satisfied! Our driver/guide Colm provided a masterclass in touring. He is a font of knowledge, history, humour, and graciousness. We enjoyed every minute. In particular Kinnitty Castle, Kilkenny Castle, stop at Rock of Cashel and Cliffs of Moher (Colm arranged a break in the weather for us!). Accommodations, pacing of the tour, stops, and good craic were all found on the tour. We highly recommend My Ireland Tour and go raibh míle maith agaibh to Colm and all the staff who welcomed us. We look forward to seeing you again.

We enjoyed the 10-day family trip of a lifetime with My Ireland tours. We loved visiting tourist sites, but so special were the towns where our (great)grandparents were from and awesome off-the-beaten-track sites! Thanks to Catriona for working with us to set our specific itinerary. And -OMG-our driver-guide, Niall Wright, was extraordinary - so knowledgeable on sites, history, and culture. Many times we said, 'wouldn't it be nice if...' Then Niall made it happen. He dealt calmly with the emotions of our little group - and the age range - from 27 to 70. On our end at least, Niall has become part of our family forever.
G Colwell
October 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
We chose the 14 day Ireland tour and had a wonderful time! Making the circle around Ireland showed us so much about the history, similarities, and differences of the Irish. Our driver/guide, Ben, added so much to the trip! Hearing everything, including stories, songs (Ben has a lovely voice), jokes, and limericks, from a native Irishman made the experience more complete. I would highly recommend this tour.
Donna Daitchman
October 2023 • Historic Irish Castle Tour
The responsiveness, organization, and attention to detail of My Ireland Tour is unparalleled. Our driver/guide Colm Clarke was a jewel. His sense of humour and 'gift of the gab' made our journey through Ireland a pleasure. The sites and hotels included in our 7-day Historic Irish Castle Tour were exceptional. From the atmospheric Kinnity Castle and its resident ghosts to the warm welcome at Abbeyglen Castle in Clifden, Connemara, My Ireland Tour got everything right!

October 2023 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
We had a wonderful time on the 10 day iconic tour of Ireland with My Ireland Tour. Our guide, Sean, was so knowledgeable and also offered excellent suggestions on places to dine and things to do during our free time. We never would have been able to see so many sights and learn so much about Ireland if we did this trip on our own. The pace of the trip was just right and the quality of the hotels was excellent. We also met a great group of people on this tour, which added to the fun. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tour for your vacation to Ireland.

The bus was very comfortable and Pat our driver and guide was fantastic, he really made our trip special. His range of knowledge was amazing and he was always available to make sure everything went smoothly. Our accommodations were good and we even stayed one night in a castle. It was so nice not to have the worry of planning and driving. I would definitely recommend My Ireland Tours to everyone.

Another great trip with 'My Ireland'. This time a private group of 8 tour in Scotland. They made recommendations for all the best stops from Glasgow to Isle of Skye to Edinburgh with no less than 2 nights in each hotel. Our guide Colm Marshal was very entertaining and helpful. 10 Nights worked out great with the last 4 nights on our own in Edinburgh.

Our Scotland and Ireland tour was wonderful. Beginning with our driver picking us up at the airport, everything went as scheduled. John Dennany was very courteous, helpful and knowledgeable during the entire trip. Accommodations were comfortable and the sightseeing was exemplary. Highly recommend this tour company. If you get this guide on your trip you will have a lot of fun and enjoy your time.

October 2023 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
I just returned from the 14-Day Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour with My Ireland Tours and can't speak more highly of this tour and the company itself. From the time I scheduled the tour a year ago until the last moment when the tour ended and I was headed home on the plane, every step was well organized with helpful staff all along the way. The tour itself exceeded all my expectations. All the accomodations were wonderful. Our guide/driver, John Dennany, made a wonderful trip even more amazing. John went out of his way to ensure that each person on our tour enjoyed themselves even ensuring that personal requests were met such as extra stops along the way to visit areas that were significant to the guests family heritage. John took gloomy weather days and turned them into a fun adventure in order to ensure each day was enjoyable for the whole group. When there was a medical emergency within our tour group John again ensured that the guest was first priorty while still ensuring that the rest of the group did not miss out on anything that was scheduled. Even though I just returned, I am already looking at booking another trip with My Ireland Tours. I would highly recommend this tour company to anyone and also would suggest requesting John Dennany as your guide/drive...you will not be disappointed.
Robert Griffin
October 2023 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
Our 10-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland vacation with My Ireland Tours was the trip of a lifetime. Our group of 9 had originally booked the trip for May 2020, but had to postpone due to the Pandemic. During the next three years several changes needed to be made and all were handled with total professionalism and good humor by our coordinator, Shannon O'Brien. She was so easy to work with and 'just made everything happen.' Every detail was executed perfectly, including providing us with a late transfer from Dublin Airport to the Dunboyne Castle Hotel due to the arrival time of our red-eye flight from San Francisco. Our driver/guide, Tony McGoey, proved to be expert in all things Irish with an encyclopedic knowledge of its history, geography, people, politics, and culture…not to mention being a fabulous storyteller and singer…as well as a virtuoso behind the wheel of a luxury bus! The tour schedule enabled us to see and experience so much of this wonderful country while not spending an inordinate time on the bus. Lots of time to explore castles, farms, pubs, and landmarks. Tony provided interesting and inciteful information throughout each segment of the days' trips, giving us tips on what to look for, where to go, places to eat and shop. Our trip took us from Dublin to Galway and through the Wild West and Ring of Kerry and back to Dublin. Along the way we visited such places as Kylemore Abbey, The Burren, Connemara, Cliffs of Moher, Blarney and the Woollen Mill, Christchurch Cathedral, the National Stud, and the Rock of Cashel with stops at Celtic Crystal to see how fine Irish lead crystal is cut, the Hazel Mountain Chocolate Factory where chocolate is made from roasted coffee beans, the Bog Village and the Red Fox Inn for the 'World's Best Irish Coffee,' an unforgettable sheep dog demonstration, lunch at the Blind Piper Pub for Ireland's Best Fish & Chips, the Jameson Distillery and Guinness Storehouse, and a local farm for a traditional farmhouse lunch. We even made a stop at Pat Cohan's Bar in Cong, made famous by the John Wayne/Maureen O'Hara movie, “The Quiet Man,” where some of us got to draw a pint of Guinness behind the bar. We also had several spontaneous adventures orchestrated by Tony and Shannon such as a horse drawn Jaunting Carriage ride with Susie (the horse) and Mark (the driver) to Ross Castle through the Killarney National Park and a delightful Sunday evening of music and fun at Canty's Pub in Cork with 86-year-old Joe Mac and his partner, Oliver. The final night of the tour was spent at the Merry Ploughboys where we were treated to authentic Irish music and dancing and a fantastic dinner! We stayed in lovely hotels, ate more great food than we ever thought possible and were treated like royalty. A couple of real side benefits were that the full-sized bus only had 26 passengers so we had lots of space to spread out, and we were able to stay 2 nights in 4 of the hotels, so we weren't having to pack up and move luggage every day! My Ireland Tours is a first-class company with outstanding personnel. They are organized, efficient, extremely fairly priced, have a great selection of excursions, and above all are committed to guest satisfaction. If (when) we go back to Ireland, this will be our tour company!
Sue Godfrey Baker
October 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
The tour was rigorous and exceptional simultaneously. Our tour guide (Mark) was knowledgeable and objective and brought the complicated and harrowing history of Ireland to life. Mark, both drove the bus, shared the history and discussed a myriad of local experiences which added humour to the tour. The tour, from booking to completion was flawless in its organization and efficiency. Accommodation was superlative as was the cuisine. Why I gave a 4 star rating: If you are vegetarian, beware your planned dinners offer no main vegetarian options. All the mains were meat, chicken and fish, that is until we got to The K Club on the last day of the tour. Also, more time to explore on our bus stops would have been ideal but time did not permit. In summary, an informative trip and sample of Ireland's history, beautiful landscapes and people. A return to Ireland in the future? Absolutely!

October 2023 • Deluxe Castles Tour
My first visit to Ireland, what a beautiful Country to see and learn more of its history. That of my family's fatherland. I had a wonderful time!! To then meet so many nice people on our Tour. Many thanks to the My Ireland Tour Co., its team, after being on their 10-day Deluxe Castle Tour. The 10-day itinerary was so fantastic; which allowed me, along with friends, and everyone on the tour to explore so much of what Ireland, of its beautiful destinations, has to offer a traveler. Ireland, its people, only welcome you with open arms. To hear this phrase as well, Cead Mile Failte, a hundred-thousand welcomes. Our driver, tour guide, Mark made the tour even nicer. Such a gentleman, friendly, with a good sense of humor, and being in his presence a person would then only sense that of his spirit and of his passion for his home, Ireland. Mark gave us all such insight each day of the tour's itinerary. So grateful to learn from his knowledge, sharing of Ireland's history and more. Also, to hear his handsome voice sing, The Fields of Athenry, as he told us more on the history of the famine. I would look to My Ireland Tour in the future, and will continue to brag about my wonderful, fun-filled experience. To then share My Ireland Tour Co. with family and friends. The fine, friendly hospitality extended and that of our accommodations and dining rooms were so luxurious and all the meals so delicious. I extend compliments to all the Chef's, their team, a true culinary experience for all the senses. I cannot say thank you enough. Thank you! A trip, a dream come true, to visit Ireland. I will be back one day.

Just returned from the 10 day Ireland Tour with Tony McGoey who absolutely made this trip!!! Met some great people, saw some amazing places and shared many, many laughs with Tony. An easy paced tour with a great guide. Couldn't be happier!!! Already looking at my calendar for a return trip.

October 2023 • Discover Northern Ireland
We took the Northern Ireland tour this time and to our amazement, Colm Clarke was again our driver and guide. It truly felt like returning to see old friends. The tour was great, again Colm was so and made things so fun. Our guide in Belfast, Nollaig, was full of information and kept things lively even while talking about things like The Troubles. In Derry, our guide was Theresa, again a knowledgeable and passionate guide. We loved Bushmill's and Giant's Causeway. The Lough Erne Cruise and the trip to Devinish Island was almost magical with the mist rising up off the river as the sun got higher. Shannon set us up with a private tour from our wish list after Northern Ireland and it was everything we could have hoped for. We got to stay in the places we wanted to explore, stayed at great placed and the food was unbelievable good. We saw a lot in 6 days - Kilkenny Castle, Cobh and the Titanic Museum and the statue of Annie Moore, then on to Kinsale and the Lusitania Museum and Old Head, all the shops (such wonderful little hidden gems. Then we went to Dingle Peninsula and spent 2 days in a delightful BNB and explored. Our last days, we revisited the Cliffs of Moher and then to Galway and a day on the largest Aran Island. We couldn't have asked for a better day - water calm, no wind, and sunny. Our driver and Guide, Pat C. was great. He stopped for photos and had suggestions for others, always made sure we were well settled in our hotels and knew his stuff. Thanks for making our trip to Ireland, once again, a delightful and experience packed trip. We'll be back!

My Ireland Tours Our party of eight embarked on a private luxury 16 passenger bus tour of Ireland. This was our first time traveling this way as we usually plan and drive ourselves. Claire worked with us to design our tour and was very patient with our many questions and very flexible and prompt as we tweaked our itinerary even more as our trip drew near. The breathtakingly beautiful country came alive to us as we began in Dublin and traveled counter clockwise around the southern part of Ireland. Pat, our driver, was extremely knowledgeable about Ireland's history, geography, culture, and music. He answered our many questions in his charming Irish brogue, sang lovely Irish songs, and recited a few limericks as we traveled through Limerick. He was timely, kind, informative as to how long between stops, and recommended delicious and fun places to eat in the various towns that we found ourselves in. The hotels were lovely and most times we stayed at least two nights so we didn't feel like we were constantly “resettling” . We had one issue with the air conditioning in our bus but it was switched out quickly for another one. We came to love this vibrant and striking country through Pat and My Ireland Tours and I would highly recommend them!

My two friends and I took the 10 Day Ireland Tour. Our driver/guide was Colm and he made the trip for us. It was a packed, well organized tour so that we could get in as much as we could. Colm made suggestions for eating, shopping, extra sights to see and would go out of his way to find something out for us, accommodate any requests, and gave us great information on the sights we were seeing and the history of Ireland. We saw so much and I know there is so much more to see. The hotels were amazing and the meals fantastic - the soups! There were 24 on our tour, just the right number, and Colm took the time to learn about each and every one of us. It's so hard to pick a favorite place but Connemara and the Ring of Kerry truly stand out. The weather cooperated and was nice, the bus was comfortable, clean and we were able to recharge our electronics, use wifi while we were traveling. I raved about this trip so much, my husband now wants to go. And I could go again because I am sure I missed things because there is so much to see. Martina, Colm, and the whole company made sure our 10 day tour was all that it could be. We didn't have to worry about logistics, Colm got us where we wanted to go, most of our meals were taken care of, and it was great not being in a different hotel every night. The 2 nights in a hotel was just right. Thanks My Ireland Tour for a wonderful experience.

This 14 day Ireland excursion on September 9, 2023 with 'My Ireland Tour' was exceptional. Our tour guide/driver, Harry Fisher, was the reason that this tour 'floated on air.' He was with us every step of the way, from the fantastic breakfasts to the fabulous dinners at these 5 star hotels. Harry ensured everything ran smoothly, verifying our scheduled tours and stops every step of the way. Visiting Ireland's many Castles, Seaside Cliffs and Cathedrals, Harry went above and beyond, eliciting pertinent information on the the history and the notable people associated with each and every locale punctuated with his humorous stories and sayings. He also played traditional Irish music recordings and other relevant historical recordings on the coach as we traveled. We were spot on-time for every planned excursion which are all included with our fabulous tour. We were extremely lucky to have a fantastic group of fellow travelers and great weather! This was absolutely the best European tour we have been on. We will remember it always. Rick and Janet MacDowell

The best guided tour ever! Colm, our driver and guide, took us through 10000 years of Irish history while stopping at some of the most famous sites in middle Ireland. The accommodations were terrific, the food was amazing, and the jokes...I don't think I've ever laughed so much on a bus. Colm was an amazing guide, highly recommend. When you book, and you really should, ask for him by name. You will not be disappointed!

I have seen many movies filmed in the lush green, beautiful Ireland, and put it on my bucket list. Last year we booked for Sept 17th, 2023, a 10 day iconic tour in the south of Ireland. It was my first trip to Ireland and I was not disappointed! Tony McGoey was our tour guide for our small group of 26 people! It was a full sized bus, so we had plenty of room to spread out. We were so fortunate to have Tony! He was awesome! He was pleasant, funny, knowledgeable. He told many jokes and gave us history lessons on Ireland, as well as current events information. He made sure we were all taken care of, even the morning of our trip to the airport leaving Ireland, he made sure we had a breakfast, as the hotel restaurant was not open yet! It was the perfect mix of planned events and free time. Above and beyond! That was the consensus of the entire group! We had a chance to make new friends, go out with other people and explore the culture. If you are looking to book a tour, I highly recommend this one, and maybe you will be luck enough to meet Tony!

Can highly recommend this tour company. Communication was excellent from the start. We did the 14 day Scotland Ireland tour and it was great. The bus was very comfortable and Pat our driver and guide was fantastic. His range of knowledge was amazing and he was always available to make sure everything went smoothly. Our accomodation was always very nice, staying one night in a castle was amazing. The food overall was good and the last night we attended a show and dinner which was very enjoyable. The only negative was the breakfasts at the hotel in Edinburgh were a bit chaotic. Taking the tour took all the stress out of driving. Thank you Pat and Shannon for a great holiday.

September 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
What a fantastic tour we had with My Ireland Tour company! Northern Ireland and Republic of Ireland should be on your next to-do travel list with this team. Our small group of 26 was a perfect size; plus travelling in a large coach provided lots of empty seats to choose from. All seven hotels that we stayed in, five were two-nighters, had excellent food and amenities. Weather was warm and sunny for the most part so not all rain like you may have heard. Our awesome driver/guide, Harry Fisher, shared many stories that led us through the island's history, past and present. With his sense of humour, attention to detail, plus a couple of surprises stops that he included during the tour, he made this special trip a very memorable one for my husband and I. Keith in the office was quick answering all our emails and questions and even arranged surprises with the hotels to help us celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary! All in all, a wonderful team to take with you when you travel! Slainté

The 14 day iconic scenes tour was excellent and covered so much stunning scenery and places. A bit more free time would have been good but understand we then wouldn't have been able to see as much. The tour group size of 26 was perfect. Plenty of room on coach and able to get to know fellow travellers who were great company. The hotels were all good although the food choice was a bit repetitive. Harry was a terrific guide/driver - so knowledgeable, entertaining and professional. He made sure everything was always ok for us all.

I just finished the Deluxe Irish Castles tour. What a fabulous trip. It was a wonderful overview of the whole country. Our guide Mark was simply the best. Personable, professional, funny and very, very helpful. He was so passionate and knowledgeable about Irish history that when I came home, I ordered the DVDs and books he'd recommended to learn more. This tour was a perfect taste of all parts of Ireland. Magnificent castles, hotels and food were terrific. My Ireland Tour is so easy and efficient to deal with, I'd love to take another tour with them and I would highly recommend them.

My Ireland put together a memorable tour for me and my sisters and our husbands. We saw all the must see spots and traced our grandparents and family roots. Our driver, David, could not have been more knowledgable , kind, funny and patient. He researched a memorial to our great uncle and took us to the exact spot. He took care to bring us to an off the beaten path town to visit a bar formerly owned by our grandfather's family and meet cousins who showed us around. He persevered to find our grandmother's childhood home and farm in a remote (and very beautiful) area and was as excited as we were to find it with only an old picture! We couldn't be more grateful! This was a once in a lifetime and very special trip and we are thankful to My Ireland for helping us to arrange it!

The nine day castle tour of Ireland for four of us was full of history, magnificent places to stay, time for walks in beautiful country, and friendly approachable people. The planning was exact, the communication with Catriona timely and always pleasant. Brian, our guide, was a gem. Two of us came down with covid, but with Brian's guidance, we were able to work around this obstacle. I would recommend 'My Ireland Tour' without hesitation.

September 2023 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
I have a mobility issue and can't walk long distances. So I emailed My Ireland company a video of my small travel scooter and asked if they could accommodate me. I received a resounding yes. So my travel companion and I booked the 14 day Iconic tour of Ireland for September 2023. Our tour guide, Harry Fisher, was so accommodating, and made every effort to make sure I saw most of the areas of interest, and if not suggested an alternative activity for me. Which sometimes worked out better as in the Bushmill tour, which has numerous stairs. I was offered a triple flight of whiskeys and a cosy seat to sip them - not a bad trade off ! Harry Fisher was witty, full of Irish legends and songs, and a fascinating historian who made Ireland more beautiful, tragic and resilient and kept us fascinated for two weeks. Our tour companions were an amazing group and many friendships were forged across Australia, America, Canada and the UK. I am so grateful for the opportunity to have seen Ireland and for the confidence I again to travel abroad again.

Thanks Harry for your knowledge and enthusiasm for this beautiful Island.

My husband and I recently finished the 10-day Deluxe Irish Castles tour. We loved every minute of this tour and that we got to see so much of Ireland in a short time. Our tour guide, Mark, was extremely professional and patient. My Ireland Tours was very easy to book with and attentive to all of the details from start to finish. We are so glad we booked this trip and will definitely get in touch with them again when it comes time for our next trip to Ireland.

Many thanks to Kristel for arranging a wonderful family vacation tour of Ireland for our group. We provided a desired itinerary and Kristel was able to make it work. I think I speak for the group when I say we had a wonderful time! There were 10 of us, and we spent 10 days in Ireland. All the hotels were outstanding, and our driver/guide Lorraine was such a pleasure to work with. She was able to meet our diverse requests with no problems at all, and was always pleasant and accommodating (even in the midst of some pretty hectic traffic!) . Some of our tour are still travelling, but I wanted to send this to you to thank you for enabling us to make lifelong memories.

My niece and I just returned from a 12 day private tour. It was our first trip to Ireland and it was fantastic! Kristel did a wonderful job in organizing the tour to include our personal interests and our dirver-guide Ger Murphy was very knowledgeable and helpful in adding places of interest on our drives from city to city. Some highlights were Ballynahinch castle, Giants Causeway, the scenic back roads and Rock of Cashel. I would highy recommend My Ireland Tour to anyone planning a visit to Ireland.

We joined with a couple of friends for a 10-day bus tour in Ireland August 20-30, 2023. We were picked up at the airport in Dublin and taken to our first hotel. We had a wonderful trip. Our guide and bus driver was Toney McCoy. He is a terrific guide and very knowledgeable in the Irish history. We learned a lot from him. Not only is he very knowledgeable but he can also tell fun stories and sing. I only wish he could write down some of his stories and fun telling jokes to publish. Our tour went counter clockwise of the southern part of Ireland. We saw Clonmacnoise a fascinating historical site, we stopped by a local chocolate factory at Hazel mountain, and later a local crystal factory, Kylemore Abby in Connemara, and Dunguaire castle in Kinvarra. Our trip continued around the beautiful landscape of the Burren, Cliffs of Moher and the Ring of Kerry. We had a stop at the Blind piper pub for a delicious lunch. On our way we also tasted Jameson Whisky and later on Guinness in Dublin. We enjoyed a traditional farm house lunch that was excellent. We had an opportunity to visit Red Fox pub for the best Irish coffee. Our tour also took us to the Blarney Castle and we stopped to shop at the Blarney Wolleen Mills. We had a very short stop in Kinsale of 1 1/2 hour. I would have liked to have at least 3 hours here. It is very small town but a lot to see and do. Before returning to Dublin we visited an Irish National Stud stable, and in Dublin the Irish emigration museum which was excellent. We also made a visit to the Christ Church Cathedral in Dublin which dates back 1000 years. On our last night with the tour we enjoyed and evening at the Merry Ploughboy Pub for entertainment with song and dance and a excellent meal. When our tour ended we had two additional nights before returning home so we could also get to see the Book of Kells and have some more time to enjoy Dublin.

I recently enjoyed the 14 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. Brian, our guide/driver was informative and entertaining and I heard a lot of new Irish jokes. He took good care of us with his driving and organisational skills. The hotels were well located and of a high standard. The food was good too and I was relieved that I didn't put on weight after indulging in the 3 course dinners each night. The tour covered many of the highlights of the area and provided just the right amount of time at each attraction. I now know a lot more about the history of Ireland and Northern Ireland which was passionately shared by the local guides. I am very glad I chose My Ireland Tour.

Just returned from a seven day stay in castle tour. Our guide Michael was excellent. He had a wealth of knowledge and could educate you on anything you wanted to know about Ireland. The castles were a great experience. Even a little haunting in one. A great way to experience the beauty of Ireland.

We were a party of 3 for the Iconic Ireland Tour, a senior couple and our teenage grandson to celebrate his school graduation. We unanimously agreed that the trip was a great experience for all of us. We had chosen My Ireland Tour company for this trip because of it being a family-run business out of County Cork, and due to their excellent on-line reviews. This trip did not disappoint and was everything that was advertised. From the Welcome and the timely pick-up at the airport, to the day of drop off for return home, we were impressed. They trully warrant a 5-Star rating. The selection of sites we viewed and/or visited were a good mix of urban and rural spots, with appropriate breaks from riding to walking/sight-seeing. Food options, as part of the tour or on our own, were excellent. The accommodations were consistently comfortable, with well-organized check-in. Room keys for the two rooms that we had booked were already assigned and immediately available upon arrival, making it efficient and easy to settle into our respective rooms. Baggage handling was timely and seamlessly handled by the hotel staff. What makes or breaks any tour, however, is the capacity and professionalism of the tour guide and driver. All 26 of us on the tour appreciated our Tour Guide, Tony McGoey. He was knowledgeable. He was funny. He shared his love of his beautiful country, and its music, with us. Tony was a good host. He was very personable and hospitable, making us feel that we were his guests and his good friends. For us, Tony's extensive knowledge of Irish history was so important to the whole tour. We came away with a much better understanding of Ireland, its people and their history. Not in a lecture, but in insightful learning. Thank you, Tony!

We recently returned from an awesome 10-day Deluxe Irish Castles Tour. Accommodations were top-notch; my favorite was Glenlo Abbey, but all were unique and special in their own way. Our amazing guide, Tom Lavin, took great care of us and attended to all our needs. He gave us just the information we needed to know each day, as we went. We relaxed into that knowing we didn't need to be overwhelmed with all details far in advance. He had a few surprises along the way, was an incredible driver, and offered great bits of history and culture, all with a quick wit and sense of humor. Thanks, Tom! We loved the Ring of Kerry, the visit to Connemara, the tour with Ronan in Derry, the added sheepdogs visit and so much more. It was such a wonderful and enjoyable trip. I would not hesitate to recommend My Ireland Tour for your special visit to Ireland!

After many months if research, we chose My Ireland Tour for our first visit to Ireland. We could not have picked a better company. From the booking process and our interaction with Shannon to our driver Tony, everything was amazing! We did the 10 Days Iconic Scenes Tour and it encompasses a ton of stops - some places we would not have thought of ourselves. The smaller Tour size on the bigger bus was an added bonus. Plenty of room to stretch out. Tony made sure we knew all the history of Ireland as far back as the 500s. A very sad tale, but certainly speaks volumes to the resilient, amazing people we met along the way. The scenery is so beautiful- from Conamara, to the Wild West and around the Ring Of Kerry. We enjoyed all the off the beaten path stops, as well as the more famous ones. We would have enjoyed more time in some of the smaller stops, like Kinsale, but it gave us the start of a list for a return trip. Hotels were high end, however only a couple had AC, which proved to be a challenge especially with only a duvet cover and no top sheet. Spent most nights quite warm due to a random heat wave while we were there. Meals were very good, albeit repetitive. If you have a free lunch or dinner, find some wood-fired pizza. The Irish do it surprisingly well! The tour included tours of many well known sites as well as a traditional Irish dinner at a local pub, which we all thoroughly enjoyed. Plus, we learned a song or two from our guide. We weren't sure we'd be able to do a tour as being on the go for that long and having to socialize that much is sometimes taxing, but there were plenty of periods of down time. By the end of the tour, we had made several new friends and we were sad to say goodbye. We wouldn't hesitate to do another tour with My Ireland Tour!

My little experience as a participant in organized tours (since 1964, three hours to reach Athens from TLV by a constellation type airplane) and 24 years of serving as a guide give me a good basis to judge a tour. The too short My Ireland Tour was a complete success.The personal treatment given before it began by Shannon was of excellent augur. My wife, Christine and me experience a marvelous trip guided and driven by the most affectionate and multifaceted Ben Sulivan. The itinerary was perfect,the two days in Dublin revived memories of James Joyce classic read for the first time in Hebrew) the small group was sympathetic ,what else we can wish except less rains ,but this this is the charm of the land of the the clover (botanic Trifollium)........ THODA RABA (in Hebrew lot of thanks). Christine & Eitan,Tel Aviv, Israel who will drink a good whiskey single malt for your sake !

I was the only solo traveler to a fun group! The guide, Paddy, was absolutely grand! How he remembers all that information, is unbelievable. He definitely makes sure you're ok and treats you like family. The Scotland- Ireland tour was enough to see the highlights of both countries. Although, I wish we were in Dublin for one more day because there wasn't enough time to walk around due to the itinerary. Certain things could have been cut short. I highly recommend this tour overall and would do it again. Some of us would eat outside the hotel for a better feel of the city and for better food options. This really was a great trip.

My family just returned from a private 10 day tour, and it was an amazing trip. Eric was fantastic organzing our trip and communciated very well leading up to the trip, he is very quick to respond to all questions. Our guide Paddy was AMAZING, he was absoltely wonderful and I cannot thank him enough for taking such good care of us the entire trip. We learned so much and saw everything we wanted to see. His attention to detail really made the trip special. Personally I liked how Eric and Paddy organized the trip so that we saw a little of everything, both big cities and also quaint country life. Two highlights were Ballynahinch castle and our amazing stay with Olive at Glasha Farmhouse, she is an outstanding host and cook. We would travel with My Ireland over and over again. 10/10!

We did the 14 day Ireland and Scotland tour and it was absolutely perfect. I can't say enough good things about our driver/guide Paddy. He really made the experience so special. The best driver around hands down! The amount of history we learned from him just while driving in the coach from place to place was incredible. I can't imagine trying to do that trip on our own or with any other tour company. The sights and stops were great, the hotels were perfect and locations were convenient, and the breakfast and dinner options were sufficient. It was truly an unforgettable experience! Thank you so much Paddy, and My Ireland Tour!
Angela Payne
September 2023 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
Our My Ireland 10 day tour taken at the beginning of September was really enjoyable and the scenery and sites we visited were beautiful, We were a small group but on a large, very comfortable coach so we had space to move around and also had all the benefits that go with a group of that size. Tony, our driver/guide was amazing. It made such a difference having an Irish guide who was able to tell us so much about the history, culture and politics of Ireland and the Irish people. It was fascinating and we came away with a much greater understanding. All the discourse was very well paced and mostly also linked in with what we were seeing, such as the peat bogs and the Penny walls. There were always plenty of “comfort breaks”, usually linked to another visit of interest of which there were many, though thankfully none of these were long and none involved visits to places where there was any pressure to buy things, as so often happens on other coach tours. Being a 10 day tour we never felt as though we were rushing from place to place and also having 2 nights in most hotels was a bonus. The accommodation was excellent, as were most of the meals. The only negative was that some of the latter tended to be repetitive and predictable, particularly with mashed potato and carrot as the only vegetable and so often with apple pie for desert! There were always 3 choices of the starter and main course but rarely a vegetarian option. Another totally separate slight grievance was the advertised transport from and to Dublin airport. There was no transport at all available for arrivals after 11.30 am or for afternoon departures and there was no flexibility at all here which was disappointing. All in all though it was a great tour and, though expensive compared to many others we looked at, it was worth it and was a totally enjoyable and very memorable trip. Definitely a company to be recommended to others, as it had been to me!

We took the 10-day iconic scenes of Ireland tour Sept 2023. It was our first tour trip and amazing! Tony was our driver/tour guide. He was so knowledgeable on the history and stories behind the places we visited and had everything down to a system. We had 26 people on a full-sized bus and had plenty of room to stretch out. No assigned seats and no name tags. We got to meet our group travelers with our dinners and tours. The price point was very reasonable. Included dinners/breakfasts/4 star hotels and admissions where required. We even had private tour groups at several destinations included. Tony made sure we were entertained, informed and had fun. If there was a stop along the way worth visiting, we stopped. I would definitely book with them again and have recommended them to everyone.

We don't want to take anything away from our past tour guide Tony (whom we just adore.) Brian was incredible, he manages to balance schedules, individual needs and crack dad jokes for 10 days effortlessly. Thank you so much Brian, you made the trip that much better.

This is my second tour with this company. I did the Northern Ireland tour in September and Colm was the guide driver of the bus. He brought Irish history alive. The additional guides we had in Belfast and Derry were fabulous sharing their knowledge of these two cities and 'The Troubles'. Great hotels and meals also included in the tour. I would recommend this company and this tour.

We recently got back from the best vacation ever! We booked a private tour for 8 members of our family. Kristel was very accommodating in helping us with a route that would allow us to see the sights we wanted to see and work in a family visit. All our accommodations were top notch. Pat O'Gara was our driver for 8 days, he was very knowledgeable and friendly. He got to know each family member and what our interests were. He took us to great spots for photos that we never would have found on our own! The van was super comfy and gave a very smooth ride! We would do it all over again if we could!

I have to admit I was a bit skeptical taking a group tour on a bus. I am beyond impressed with our trip! Our Guide Harry was outstanding!

What a wonderful experience we had in Ireland. Ireland was not originally on our 'Must See' list and boy were were WRONG!!! Our tour guide, driver, and all around amazing man, Harry made our tour complete unforgettable. He was funny, informative and very, very knowledgeable about all the various locations. The other thing that made the tour a complete pleasure was the booking and contact with Shauni and the rest of the team prior to our actual tour. They answered questions and made the booking process stress free! We will definitely be looking into other tours with My Ireland Tour!!!

His vast knowledge, warm personality and skillful driving all combined to make us feel informed, welcomed and safe while covering many miles over 7 days. The itinerary was a combination of places we wanted to visit and locations Shauni suggested based on our interests. Her itinerary allowed for a maximum number of places without being rushed, all the while only changing hotels twice. Because of David's great time management we were able to revisit a few locations that we couldn't enjoy previously due to rain or fog. We had some lively conversations in the car, covering history, current events, everyday life, etc. This trip was one we'll talk about forever, we are so happy we decided to do a private tour, and even happier we chose to work with My Ireland Tours. Thank you, Shauni and David for making this the trip of a lifetime!!

My 14 day My Ireland tour was absolutely the best tour I have been on. It was well planned and well executed by our wonderful driver/guide, Pat. He was so knowledgeable about everything, history, geography, particular sites etc. The sights were perfectly planned and the timing of everything was spot on. There were no long periods on the bus and Pat always let us know how long it would be before a break. I am so impressed with My Ireland Tours. Thank you so much.

We just returned from the Deluxe Irish Castles Tour and I would give it 10 stars if I could. The tour exceeded our expectations in every way! Every detail was well planned from the time we arrived until the time we departed. Our guide, Tom Lavin, worked tirelessly to ensure our trip was perfect. Not only is Tom an excellent driver, he is kind, witty, considerate and very knowledgeable about all things Irish. He made our trip thoroughly enjoyable. The accommodations were outstanding. Every hotel was unique and memorable. We were welcomed warmly at each hotel and catered to in every way. Every stop along the way was timed perfectly. We were fortunate to have a fun group of people and made some new friends which made the trip all the more enjoyable. Thank you Tom and My Ireland Tours for an amazing Ireland experience!

My husband and I just finished a wonderful 10 day Iconic tour through Ireland with “My Ireland Tour” and it was fantastic! It was a very well planned trip and our tour guide George was very knowledgeable of Ireland and its history. You can tell he not only enjoys his job but also speaks very highly of his company. If you ever are planning a trip to Ireland most definitely consider “My Ireland Tour” you will not be disappointed. It was a wonderful journey and Ireland is a beautiful place to visit!

This was the most memorable trip! I've never had a tour guide bring a City and Country to life like Michael Coleman. Excellent job, Michael! This trip was a celebration of 20 years of marriage, and it just so happened to include my birthday; I couldn't have asked for more. The accommodations and gourmet meals were beyond 5 stars. The tour bus was comfortable, clean, with plenty of leg room. I highly recommend using My Ireland Tours to anyone planning a trip to Ireland.

September 2023 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
My husband and I just returned from the 14 day Scotland and Ireland tour and if was a fantastic vacation for us. We had never been overseas before and were nervous but our tour driver, Colm, made our trip go smoothly and without incident. We saw places we would have never known to go if we would have been on our own. The entire itinerary was full and we were moving quickly to see everything, but every place we went was well worth the drive. There were times we had to travel 2 hours between spots but Colm made the trip fun and told us stories and gave us so much history. He was extremely knowledgeable. From the time we left Edinburgh until we arrived in Dublin, we had such an amazing experience visiting so many sites. The Lough Eske castle was truly the most beautiful place to stay but the Menlo hotel was not my favorite at all. We were exhausted at the end of our trip but we saw everything we wanted to and more. I highly recommend this company. From the booking until the end it went off without a hitch. Shannon and the team answered emails and questions immediately. I would definitely travel with them again. Thank you for a great vacation!

Colum was our guide and he has the gift of gab! We learned Irish history, heard hilarious tales and music. The tour is comprehensive while being relaxed. No rush, just fun and education. The accommodations were wonderful, the meals excellent and often enough that a snack was all we needed between. Our group was bonded by rhe end. Colum is a very competent driver and was also calm and respectful of other drivers. I felt safe and cared for at all times. I would go anywhere with My Ireland Tour.

What a fantastic tour company and a wonderful trip. All the details of the trip were top drawer and our tour guide, Tom, really added so much to the whole experience. And the castle hotels were magical. We had a great experience.

September 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
This was a Bucket-list trip for me, and it certainly exceeded my expectations. George, our tour guide was extremely informative, and he provided us with background information about the history of Ireland. We made several unscheduled stops, such as the sheep farm and beautiful areas for pictures. Also, George was attuned to the needs of the group, ensuring that he stopped at locations with facilities, and providing us opportunities for us to stretch our legs after NO LONGER than 2 hours sitting. I would highly recommend this trip. There was a lot of walking and steps, but for those not capable of walking or taking too many steps, there was still plenty of things to do and see!

My wife and I just returned from the '10 Day Iconic Scenes' tour with George. What an incredibly smooth and enjoyable “first visit” to beautiful Ireland. Anyone seeking a well planned, pleasant paced and educational visit to the prime spots in Ireland WITH A SMALL GROUP, this is the one! Exceptional company… from office staff to help with booking and answering questions to guides like George who took the group under his wings like family! Thanks for an unforgettable time!!!

I can't say enough good things about our tour. Harry (our bus driver/tour guide) was extremely attentive. On the last day we were supposed to see the Blarney Stone in the afternoon but he had done some investigating and found out a cruise ship was also going to be there around the same time. So he suggested we wake up early and go and I couldn't believe how getting up 30 mins earlier made such a difference!! We only waited 20 mins to kiss the stone but when we walked out the line was already passed the one hour mark. Harry was informative and always took the scenic route even when it wasn't convenient. I definitely recommend this company to anyone that wants to see Ireland.

September 2023 • Deluxe Castles Tour
We just returned home from the Deluxe Irish Castle Tour, and it was definitely 5+++++stars! It was magical - everything we could have hoped for. I'll just say, on behalf of our group, we are having major Ireland withdrawals. It was such a spectacular tour (thank you My Ireland Tour)- everything from the service, the gourmet food, the 5-star accommodations, the scenery, and visits were just fabulous. From the brilliant tour by Rowan in Derry/Londonderry, the delightful chocolate factory (who knew), the shopping in Galway, the beautiful grounds of Lough Eske (we did a sunrise walk around the grounds), the castles, ancestry old haunts, Dublin fun, the Ring of Kerry, the Cliffs - EVERYDAY WAS SOMETHING SPECIAL! Each hotel was so unique and fabulous. I would recommend this trip be extended at least another day or two to get a chance to enjoy and relax at the resorts. Of course, the weather was very typical for Ireland - we had all 4 seasons in one day! But - Tom had arranged for the sun to be out during the Ring of Kerry and the Cliffs so we got the most gorgeous pictures. The breakfasts were delicious/full Irish. We always had time for a quick bite or nice lunch while on the road, so not to worry. The Blind Piper Pub was much fun and delicious. The gourmet dinners were fabulous only to be topped by the deserts! All of this was due to our spectacular tour guide, Tom Levin. Tom showed us how special Ireland really is. It's their people, the historic places, their music, their culture and history with their beautiful land. We are so grateful to have experienced this land and the tour with Tom as our guide. He took care of everything for us (all done behind the scenes too). He had a few surprises up his sleeve for us during the trip which were extra and really great (fairies, juice and dogs)! He was a professional for sure, a great driver and had a sense of humor too. A really fun bus load of people made our trip very special, and we have great memories and lots of pictures! It was perfect.

My husband and i have just returned from a 14 day Iconic Tour of Ireland. The itinerary was extensive and varied, and we certainly saw some beautiful and interesting parts of Ireland. It was our first visit, but won't be our last. All the tour guides were great, very professional and knowledgeable , and we finished every tour much more informed about Irish history and culture. A special mention should be given to our exceptional driver/tour guide, Brian. He went above and beyond taking care of us throughout the tour, ensuring everything went smoothly, and thank him for giving us a wonderful holiday experience we will never forget . Ireland made us very welcome and we thank them for that . Ireland is beautiful and we would recommend this tour without hesitation.

The scenery, the camaraderie among our fellow tour members, the food, the venues, and last but not least our awesome drive/guide Austin McCardle, who's passion for and knowledge of Irish history along with his humor enlivened and enlightened everywhere we visited. Thanks so much!

Can't recommend this tour enough! We did the 10 day iconic scenes of Ireland tour. It was our first group tour - and all 26 of us were friends by the end. Our driver Austin was fantastic - he provided so much insight and history in addition to humour and shenanigans! We are so grateful we got the opportunity to be part of this amazing group - and will always be grateful to Austin for sharing his beautiful and magical country with us.

On behalf of Mary Beth and Myself, we wanted to share our experience with My Ireland Tours. Full disclosure, this is the second time we have used Eric and My Ireland Tours. Last time was 9 years ago. It was a 5 out of 5 then and it is a 5 out of 5 now. The planning, execution and price point are great. Our driver, Ben Sullivan, was the best. Prompt, courteous and full of knowledge about his home - Ireland. We learned so much. Thank you Ben and Thank you Eric. We will be back.

This was a wonderful trip! Austin, our tour guide/bus driver was so knowledgeable about Ireland and told great stories. The scenery was breath taking. We had full days but plenty of time to rest. There were lots of different places to visit.The only 'bad' thing I would say is that the food at the hotels wasn't that great.

We four Australians highly recommend My Ireland Tours, you will have a fabulous time exploring the beauty of the Emerald Isle.

We just returned from a 14 day Iconic tour of Ireland. We really enjoyed our first trip to Ireland and the itinerary was fantastic. We stayed on the go most of the time but we saw and hear so much history of the country. Brian our tour guide and coach driver was so funny! He was very knowledgeable of his country and has pride was exuberant. He was able to get us a few extra surprises along the way such as the Celtic Crystal demonstration of cutting glass. He answered most anything we asked and he could tell you where to go for things no matter where we were. The accommodations were clean and nice. I would recommend My Ireland tour company without any hesitation.

Thank you for an amazing tour! Our family really enjoyed the 6-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour. Our tour guide/driver, George, was excellent!! He was so knowledgeable, thoughtful, and entertaining, sharing his knowledge of both historical events and modern Ireland. The days were very long, but because of this, we were able to see so much in just five days!! The coach bus was modern and not overcrowded, so everyone had an ample amount of space. Glendalough, Galway, The Cliffs of Moher, The Ring of Kerry, Killarney and Blarney Castle.....all stunningly beautiful!! It's hard to pick a favorite! We can't wait to visit again someday. Thank you for exceeding our expectations and being a part of life long memories made.

It is an absolute please to write this review for My Ireland Tours. We just came back from 12 days in Scotland and Ireland. Kristel form My Ireland tours was extremely helpful and custom creating the most memorable experience. We were 18 friends traveling together all very well traveled. Every experience we had was wonderful. Several of us are golfers and the courses were challenging, beautiful and fun. The tours of the country was beautiful including important historical points. Every aspect of the tour from accommodations, dining and travel was excellent. We can't wait to book with them again.

We recently returned from the 6 Day Iconic Ireland tour. My wife, myself and 2 of our grown sons (both in their 20s) took the tour. Our driver and guide, Sean was extremely knowledgeable and provided us with a vast amount of Irish history along the way. Sean was thoughtful, kind, and patient. He was also an excellent driver despite the narrow, curvy roads. The tour included a variety of sites in the 6 days, giving us a taste of many different things. We all enjoyed it immensely and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to see Ireland.

We took our family of eight on a ten day private tour of Ireland and Northern Ireland to celebrate our 50th anniversary and our daughter and son-in laws 25th anniversary. Our guide/driver David Breen was exceptional, knowledgeable, humorous and accommodating. Our tour was fantastic and we truly enjoyed all the sites. The accommodations were very good. One suggestion would be to provide a listing of potential nearby restaurants as alternative to hotel. Thanks for a great time.

Thank you Michael Coleman for being the most wonderful tour guide/driver. You really went above and beyond for all of us. The tour is so well organized. Your knowledge and passion for your beautiful Ireland is second to none. It's such a beautiful country and I feel so privileged to have seen it.

A group of 10 friends booked the 13 day My Ireland Tour for a private tour of the whole island. Kristel helped to personalize and tweak the itinerary to our needs. The tour was magnificent and we saw so much of beautiful Ireland. The diversity of our tour (castles, churches, golfing, horse races) was second to none and we all feel that we got a great taste of history and contemporary Ireland. We cannot say enough about Sean, our driver, tour guide. He is very knowledgeable and well read and has great life experiences. This knowledge is top rate as he could answer so many of our crazy questions about the beautiful Emerald Isle. He is proud of his country and has a great passion which shines through. Sean also has a great sense of humor and is easy to get along with - so much so that we all feel we made a good friend. We have done a few other tours, but we all feel this one was the best and we have already recommended it to others. If you are looking to explore Ireland, we highly recommend this tour and if you can nab Sean as your tour guide, do it!

September 2023 • Deluxe Castles Tour
I just returned from the extraordinary 10-day Deluxe Castle Tour. This was my second time touring with My Ireland Tours, and I have already decided to book for a third tour in 2024. From start to finish this tour was a stellar experience! The major reason this tour was such a memorable experience is our tour guide and driver, Tom Lavin. Tom is personable and professional with a quick wit and spot on sense of humor. He is a consummate professional driver, and took extremely good care of us. Tom is a great ambassador for My Ireland Tours. He kept us totally engrossed in Ireland's beautiful landscape and history as we toured the length and breadth of Ireland. I am still in awe at how much Tom can recount of the history and information for each stop we made along the tour. Starting from the North to Derry and then down the West coast to the South, through the Ring of Kerry and back up the East coast to the very special K Club. Our accommodations at Lough Eske Castle, Glenlo Abbey, and Cahernane House, and the K Club were all top notch, with fabulous gourmet food and attentive and professional staff. We also had a great fun group that made the long jaunts on the bus that much more enjoyable. Course you know that means 'Mimi' and the rest of her 'crew'! One of the highlights of this tour was a very enjoyable luncheon at the Blind Piper Pub...fabulous fish and chips and lovely friendly people. Another highlight I cannot fail to mention was Ronan McNamara, our guide in Derry/Londonderry, who shared his expert knowledge of the history of this city. If I could give this tour a hundred stars I would gladly do so. Thanks Tom, you made it a special memory for all of us! A special thank you also to Eric O'Gorman and Keith for making the booking process seamless and easy, and answering all my questions.

We took the 14 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour in August. This tour is a great way to see much of the island and most of the sought after sites without having to worry about the logistics. Our tour had only 20 guests on a full sized bus giving us plenty of room. Our driver/guide, Brian was extremely knowledgeable, funny, personable and attentive to our needs. The tour price was reasonable - and the tour is a good value. The hotels and meals were more than adequate, but the main reason for taking this tour is to pack the most sight seeing into your time in Ireland.

Russell and I just returned from our 10 day 'Deluxe Castle Tour' with our guide Harry Fischer. The tour was wonderful with the sheep-studded landscape, the break from the August heat (fires in the hearth!) and the historical information. This was a busy tour with not a lot of relaxation time, but we saw so many places which was our goal. Our guide was the epitome of an Irish gentleman. He was highly experienced and intuitive concerning the needs and appropriate adjustments that were suitable for our particular group. The accommodations were outstanding, and the food was wonderful. Our group of 26 was a nice size and mix. We enjoyed everyone's company and felt right at home.

I can't recommend My Ireland Tour highly enough! We just returned from the 6-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour, and it was more amazing than I could have hoped. Our guide, Sean, was so kind and knowledgable. He made our experience truly special. We went with my mom for her 80th birthday and it was a bucket list dream come true for her. We would not hesitate to use My Ireland Tour again.

My husband and I recently returned from the trip of a lifetime to Ireland! We spent the first week on our own in Dublin and Belfast, but the remainder of our time was spent on a private tour with My Ireland Tours. Our driver/guide, Paddy, was amazing!! He was kind and friendly, and very knowledgeable. He showed us places that we would never have found on our own. We chose to take a private tour because of the opportunity to customize it to suit us. Catriona at My Ireland Tours worked with us to do the planning and made excellent suggestions to round out our itinerary. It was truly the best trip we have ever been on. The stress of getting from one place to another and hoping the accommodations work out was completely non-existent. We just sat back in our comfortable car and enjoyed the ride! We can't thank My Ireland tours enough for the wonderful tour, and we couldn't have had a better guide to show us your country. Thank you so much Paddy!

Loved our first visit to Ireland, so much so, that we are now thinking of making another trip to Northern Ireland. Our guide, Joe Pigott, treated us like family and we had the most enjoyable 7 days with him. It was too short and we wanted more. It was full of laughter, banter, and fun. He is a skilled driver and best of guides. Ireland has so much to offer.....it is a hidden jewel.

September 2023 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
Our 14-day Scotland-Ireland tour experience with My Ireland Tours not only met but exceeded all our expectations. This was due in large part to our driver/tour guide, Pat Prendergast, who was fabulous. We flew into Edinburgh a few days early to golf at St. Andrews and to spend time at the Fringe Festival – as well as to get over any jet-lag. Pat picked up our party of seven from our AirBnb on Saturday morning to take us to the Doubletree, where we started off with an introductory dinner and then the Edinburgh Royal Tattoo, which was an incredible way to start off our tour. The 14-day itinerary was aggressive, but we covered a lot of the highlights in both countries. There was also enough free space on the bus to allow people to spread out a little, and the bathroom stops were timed perfectly. Pat was not only an excellent driver, but engaging and informative. He was flexible should participants want to schedule side trips or need a “shopping/rest” day. Thank you Pat and My Ireland Tours for an incredible vacation!

My sister-in-law and I just spent 10 awesome days enjoying the Deluxe Irish Castle Tour. Our amazing and I say amazing tour guide was Harry Fisher. His knowledge, his years of expertise, his kindness, humor, and patience was a gift to our tour group. I can only say , My Island Tours, and Harry Fisher made my visit to beautiful Ireland unforgettable. There are just too many high points to even begin to list. Thank you Harry, you are the best. A big thank you to My Island Tours for such great planning. And a special thank you to our wonderful tour group! Until we meet again!

Had a great sense humor and accomodated us with all our requests. 26 people was a nice number of people on the trip. We made some new friends and enjoyed everyones company at dinner time. All the accomodations were 5 stars (food and castle). Harry we appreciate everything you did for us. I would highly recommend this company.

I can't say enough about our Deluxe Castle Tour. Our tour guide, Harry Fisher, was amazing. We learned so much about Ireland in a short time. The accommodations were beautiful. My least favorite was Dunboyne Castle but the food was outstanding and we only spent one night there. The whole team at My Ireland Tour was top notch from Shannon in the planning to Harry our tour guide and driver.. Thank you for sharing Ireland with us.

My wife and I enjoyed our 14 day tour tremendously. We got to see so much of what Ireland has to offer and our tour was all encompassing. We visited museums, castles, distilleries, local pubs , watched Irish Gaelic football championship, visited iconic scenic places and so much more. Last but not least what made our tour so wonderful was our driver Cathal who educated us with the history and other information about the Irish and did so with a pleasant and humorous approach. A+ vacation. Thank You, Cathal and My Ireland Tour!

We just returned home from the My Ireland 10 day epic tour. Epic it was indeed. You could tell that every place we went was carefully selected to give you a full feeling for the country. Our tour guide, Tony was awesome! He not only provided great and detailed information on each place we visited but all points in between. He was very well versed in Irish history and current Irish culture. As we toured the country side between scheduled locations he pointed out other things about the areas we passed through and often stopped for picture opportunities when the in between places were of particular interest, and I must say he was a pretty fair Irish tenor. Of the many wonderful places we saw one that particularly stands out was our lunch at a local farm where we met a wonderful Irish family and ate like locals. As an Irish American only one generation removed from Ireland I can say that all of the stops along the tour gave me a complete feeling about the country of my ancestry. I highly recommend My Ireland Tours if you are considering visiting Ireland.
Chris Guntermann
September 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
We spent 2 weeks end of August with guide John McSweeney on a custom tour with just us 6. It was so so nice to be in the small bus, with the flexibility to stop when we needed a break. John knew where everything was along our route (i.e. bathrooms) and also everybody everywhere knew him, so we were greeted royally at every coffee or heritage spot. John's tour dialog was great... We learned so much more than from the guide books, and it was especially nice to be in a bus tall enough to see over the hedgerows and walls. We had driven a car on a previous trip and mostly saw a lot of wall and brush. Pickup and dropoffs were seamless and there was never any stress. I have no idea how John jockeyed that bus through all the traffic and narrow roads without a bump... always finding a parking place too. The restaurant and shopping recommendations were great. Accommodations were first class and very comfortable with good breakfasts. We took a couple of unstructured 'days off', without a tour, and MyIreland was fine with that too... Working with Eric to put all this together was responsive and understanding. Thanks to you all for the great vacation.

We had the best time on our 10-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour with Tony McGoey as our driver. His driving skills and knowledge of Ireland was second to none and we thoroughly enjoyed his commentary and singing along the way. We couldn't have wished for better and Ireland is a beautiful country with so much to see. The people are friendly and lots of fun. We loved the Traditional Irish Music sessions and dancing in the pubs. Would highly recommend My Ireland Tours. Kim and Sandy, Sunshine Coast, Australia.

Our family of 6 (ages 10 to 78) took a tour through My Ireland Tour for 6 days and 5 nights. Keith was very responsive to all of our emails, and was able to arrange a private tour for us which accommodated all our needs and wishes. We were able to visit Galway, Killarney and Cork with some brief stops through smaller towns. Paddy was our driver/guide. He was knowledgeable about Ireland, and couldn't have been nicer. The hotels booked for us through My Ireland Tour were all very beautiful and luxurious. Some of the trip highlights were the Cliffs of Moher, Falconry Kerry, and the Killarney Jaunting Car Ride. We were glad to book with a family owned tour company based in Ireland, and would highly recommend them for a tour on your next trip to Ireland!

September 2023 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
Details of Scotland and Ireland tour were misleading. Took tour in 2023. Atholl Palace hotel is advertised as a 4 star hotel but clearly is not, poor to no water pressure on upper floors and sagging mattresses. Tour company claimed hotel recently updated. It was partially updated. No tour of Belleek factory and tour info said we could talk with craftsman. Watched a 10 minute video outside of the shop as factory was closed. After this was pointed out the tour company did delete information and picture related to talking with craftsman. Air conditioning at Edinburgh hotel was not working. Brought to bus drivers attention. He did nothing and simply walked away. I had to work with hotel staff in getting a new room that had air conditioning. 3 tours were self guided with headsets so you couldnt engage with a guide and ask questions. Evening meals were generally good but usually the same menu. Very disappointing overall.

I would highly recommend My Ireland Tour. From start to finish it was a fantastic experience. Catroina arranged an 8 day private tour of Ireland for our extended family of 8. Every detail was prepared and planned with our input. We made a few adjustments to the itinerary and it was handled with care and professionalism. Our coach guide Brian was a very experienced, knowledgeable, and did I mention funny? He traveled with us for 8 days through towns and countryside. He had so much knowledge of history, current events, and more. His pride in his country was evident and we were lucky to make his acquaintance. We will definitely use them again and will recommend them to our friends and family

My husband and I just spent 10 wonderful days enjoying the Deluxe Irish Castle tour with Harry Fisher as our guide! My Ireland Tours does a great job of planning the trip and Harry, with 40+ years of experience, added a few special visits to our itinerary. Our group of 26 got along beautifully! Harry's kindness, humor and patience were much appreciated. We dined and stayed at 4 and 5 star hotels, with the stay at Glenlo Abbey and dining in the Pullman Restaurant 'one of the many' highpoints! Ireland's beauty was enjoyed by all. Thank you so much!

The tour and accommodations were wonderful. We did the 8-day Dingle Peninsula tour in early July. at that time of year, the sun doesn't set until close to 10pm. Our tour guide, Peter Kelly, was very knowledgeable and a true pleasure. If you mention a particular part of the country you're interested in, let him know. He loves research. Emails were answered promptly by the staff. We were happy we arrived a couple of days early to give us a chance to adjust to the time zone.

There were 25 total on the coach and it was a perfect mix, everyone enjoyed each others company and there was plenty of elbow room. We had to do a drive switch after our first day due to a family emergency; we all were enjoying Eamonn and he was a great driver, we were sad to see him go. He was replaced by John D., John was also an excellent driver and was very knowledgeable, funny and accommodating. The tour stops were all excellent and John did a great job with maximizing our time everywhere. Most of the accommodations were great, the meals as well. I have recommended everyone I talk to about my trip to take this tour! I can't wait to return!! I definitely left a piece of my heart in Ireland.

Our family of 6 recently returned from our Private Tour with My Ireland Tour Co. We had a wonderful week and enjoyed each stop, sightseeing visit and Davey was a great tour guide! We will definitely be back to spend more time in the smaller towns we stayed over for one night.

August 23. Ron and I would highly recommend My Ireland Tour! We did a 9 day private tour with our driver/guide Tony. He was informative, caring, funny and a great singer. We enjoyed Tony as much as we enjoyed the beautiful landscapes and cities he took us to. We were never rushed at any of the many, many locations on our travels in the north and through Donegal. The guides that joined us in Belfast and Derry/Londonderry were wonderful. Ron and I consider Tony a true friend and we wish him all the best and many blessings. Hope to see him again someday. SLAINTE!! Thank you Eric for arranging such an incredible vacation for us. Your new friends, Diana & Ron

I can't say enough about My Ireland tours. We had an amazing trip. Beginning with the booking straight through to the end of our tour everything was flawless. Our tour guide George was great, he really cared about the tour and everyone on it. He went the extra mile to make sure everyone was happy and having a good time. We learned a lot about Irish history and culture. I loved that it was a small group only 21 people. The fact that it was a small group made tour stops less time consuming. The tour bus was large, clean and modern. The itinerary was great, the hotels were modern and clean. I would highly recommend this tour company.

This tour was everything and more than what was described when I made my decision to join it! The breathtaking scenery, landmarks, villages, cities, nice hotels, and food were above any expectations I may have had. Our tour guide/driver, Colm Marshall, with his vast knowledge of the history , geography, and folklore truly made our journey a trip of a lifetime! Colm's daily humor and passion for the country helped to give us a depth to what we were seeing and kept us in a sensory overload. The small group bonded quickly and since returning have shared with each other pictures of our adventure! If you are hesitating in any way about making a decision to join an My Ireland Tour please don't! I promise you won't be disappointed!

I just returned from a solo trip to Ireland and Scotland. I couldn't have had a better group of people on my tour. Everyone was friendly and inclusive. I never felt alone. Our driver/guide, Colm, was informative and humorous. He never lost our attention. He made every place interesting. And as the roads were narrow and winding, he was an excellent driver, never putting us at risk. He truly is the best. From the moment I contacted My Ireland Tour, the staff was helpful and considerate of my concerns about booking solo. They were always accessible and made the booking process easy. As to the trip itself, we went to some of the most fascinating sites in Scotland and Ireland, staying at 4 star hotels and castles. Every meal at every place we stayed was great. Our rooms were spacious and extremely clean, with the front desks being accommodating if anything was needed. I highly recommend using My Ireland Tour for any travel you desire in Ireland and Scotland. And try to get Colm as your driver/guide. You won't be disappointed.

Fabulous tour! 14 day Iconic Tour of Ireland. Fantastic tour guide, Cathal, who was incredibly knowledgeable, very funny, and an all around great person. This tour hit all the highlights and we highly recommend it for those who want to get a good feel for all of Ireland. All of the people on the tour were terrific too! Lots of laughs with people from all over the globe. I recommend this tour highly!

Our 13 person group had the most incredible time on our My Ireland Tour. The accommodations, meals, and attractions were all superb and everyone in our group had the absolute best time. Colm, our tour guide, was fantastic and made our trip even more special. He took the time to get to connect with each person in our group and we could not have asked for a better guide. Thank you My Ireland Tour and Colm for making our trip such a memorable experience.
Linda Harper
August 2023 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
This is a great tour company. We did the 14 day Iconic Scotland-Ireland tour with Colm Marshall as our guide. Colm was knowledgeable, fun and an all around great person to lead us on this adventure. The small group atmosphere made it very easy to get to know and bond with the others. (In fact, we have started a Facebook group, My Ireland Tour, Aug5-18,3023, where we can all share our experiences.) The itinerary was filled with great sites and we were left with some free time to explore on our own. We left lots to see behind for another adventure as seeing 2 countries in 2 weeks is quite an undertaking. The accommodations we great and meals were typical for the regions. I would certainly 100% recommend “My Ireland Tours” to anyone who wants a great introduction to Scotland/Ireland.

We just returned from a 10 day tour with My Ireland Tour. Our tour guide was Garey Goddard and he was very knowledgeable and professional. I would highly recommend this tour company for your travels. We totally enjoyed our trip. We took the 10 day iconic Ireland tour.

August 2023 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
We just completed the 14 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. To begin, our guide, Michael Coleman was exceptional! He has an encyclopedic knowledge of Ireland; it's places, people and it's history. He was able to impart this information in an engaging and entertaining manner over the entire two weeks. What's to say about the scenery - beautiful! There were three of us touring in a bus with 19 other individuals from various parts of the world. While we may have preferred a smaller group with a wider age range (our son is 14), everyone in the group became good friends by trips end. Sadly, a couple of people on the bus had what was described as a cold. It turns out they likely had covid. A number of travelers on the bus came down with the 'cold' during the trip. My wife and son tested positive for covid when we returned home. Thankfully, none of those suffering from the 'cold' became serious ill. Having traveled as a party of three I would recommend others plan on booking at least two rooms. A number of the hotels seemed to have some difficulty accomodating three in one room. All that said, we throughly enjoyed our My Ireland tour and would consider using them again. Our guide, Michael Coleman was amazing!

August 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
Our tour with My Ireland Tours was fabulous. I learned so much about the history of Ireland that I didn't know. I was in Ireland 25 years ago but only in the south and this encompasses all of Ireland. I was blessed to learn that an ancestor was the mayor of Cork in the 1920's. Michael Colman who was our tour operator was very knowledgeable about the history, had a great sense of humor, and was very patient with all of us. He made sure we were taken care of and I highly recommend him.
Karen Smith
August 2023 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
We just completed the 10 Day Iconic Ireland tour with our wonderful driver/guide, Tony. I cannot say enough good things about this tour. The highlights: *Great itinerary *Perfect pacing - I was concerned about too much bus time but we were never on the bus for more than 1.5 hours before a break or stop for sightseeing. Most days started at 9 am and we were back to hotel by 5 pm which allowed time to rest before dinner. *Our guide, Tony, was the best. He shared history, facts, stories in such an interesting way. Also, he talked just the right amount. Usually there was more talking in the morning and less in the afternoon, which is great when you're tired. He is also kind and funny and connected well with our group. *I loved how Tony would tell us enough about the place before we got there. Then we would have free time or a guide. We didn't have to follow him around from place to place. I always felt like the stops had just the right amount of time - not too long and not too short. *The hotels were very nice. *All of the dinners were included which was great. After a long day of touring, it's nice to NOT have to think about what to do for dinner. Food and service was great at all hotels. *While you don't always have flexibility on a tour to go where you want, it was really nice not to have to worry about driving, getting tickets, etc. We walked right into every site. No lines, no waiting. After traveling on our own for a few days before the tour, it was kind of nice to not have to make many decisions. *The group size is limited to 24. Bus was very nice with comfortable seats (and 34 seats so room to spread out), WiFi and good sound from the driver/guide. My Ireland Tours was great from start to finish. I had to make a change in our reservation and the response time was quick. All communication was excellent and we were well prepared. If you're looking for a tour, the 10 Day Iconic Ireland is a great one!

It's 2023 and we've just returned from our FOURTH tour with My Ireland Tour! I can't think of a better testimonial for this amazing tour company than to say that we've come back, four times now, to enjoy the tours that they provide. This year we did the 14 day Scotland / Ireland tour. The driver / guide, Pat, was absolutely phenomenal! We thoroughly enjoyed his knowledge and expertise. The itinerary was exceptionally well planned and equally well executed. Just the right pace to see everything there is to see without being hectic or hurried. Fantastic hotels were a big plus on this trip, especially the overnight castle stay. To put it very simply, My Ireland Tour is the top touring company for your visit to Ireland.

August 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
LOVED the tour! Our guide, Austin was amazing! Whether he was maneuvering the coach through hard to navigate streets, twists and turns in the mountains, providing a wealth of knowledge about the town, land or buildings; this was a vacation of a lifetime! Will be booking a tour in the near future!

My husband and I have wanted to take an overseas trip for so long. We have dreamed of going to Ireland and this trip was everything we hoped for! Our 10 person group included our three adult children and their spouses, our 1 grandson, and our nine-year-old. Our driver guide, Mike Riordon, was excellent! He was kind and knowledgeable, thoughtful and interesting. We were absolutely thrilled with the itinerary, the beautiful accommodations, and the entire Irish experience. We gained lots of knowledge of history, tradition, and culture. The food in Ireland was also fantastic even for our family member that is gluten-free and our family member that was dairy sensitive.

We just returned from our 6 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour. This was our first time traveling with a tour group. We thoroughly enjoyed it! Everyone was friendly and prompt. Our Driver-Guide was Austin McArdle. He took great care of us. He shared his personal stories and had great knowledge of the culture. This was a terrific tour with lots to see. We had planned visits and time on our own to explore. I highly recommend My Ireland Tour Company. Cheers!
Robin Drechsel
August 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
The tour starts and ends with the bus driver/tour guide. And our guide was fantastic! His love of his country was shown every day. It helps that the countries we visited were so beautiful. The hotels were great. A night in a castle, staff standing at the entrance to greet us. (Unfortunate we only spent one night there.) Lucky to have such a great group on the tour also. Only real complaint would be being offered same basic meal options every night. Irish stew and fish and chips are good but, please, not every night for two weeks.

I am sitting at the airport after just completing my 14 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. Very sad to be leaving Ireland. Thank you Michael Coleman for being the most wonderful tour guide/driver. You really went above and beyond for all of us. The tour is so well organized. Your knowledge and passion for your beautiful Ireland is second to none. It's such a beautiful country and I feel so privileged to have seen it.
Kelly Benas
August 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
Our My Ireland Tour was amazing. The itinerary is well planned. We were able to see a variety of beautiful sites throughout the tour. The accommodations and food were great. We had the best tour guide, Tony. He was very knowledgeable, kind and funny. We heard a lot about Irelands history between sites. He recommended optional activities in the evenings. He arranged optional activities if anyone on the tour wanted to participate. He went above and beyond to make sure everyone was having a good time. He even sang for us a few times. I would absolutely book another tour through My Ireland and recommend it to others.

August 2023 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
We just returned from the 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. The selection of places to visit and roads to take gave us what I think was a good overview of the country. Accommodations and meal choices were excellent, even for a vegetarian. We enjoyed the more personalized stops like the farmhouse lunch stop and the small chocolate candy business. One of my favorite parts, however, was visiting places that highlighted the history of Ireland. Our driver and guide, Tony, was the absolute best, with his encyclopedic knowledge of history! Tony also deserves credit for safely and skilfully driving the bus through roads that were two lane but which I swear, should have been one lane! Kudos to Tony and My Ireland for a memorable and safe tour. Definitely a 5-star tour.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND MY IREALND TOUR 10/10. I was a solo traveler on the group tour and I was welcomed with open arms. Austin was the best driver, tour guide, and comedian. He had me laughing and learning all the way through Ireland. Accommodations exceeded my expectations. Ireland showed off in all her glory with more sunshine than rain- I consider that a huge win!

My Irish twin sister, and I did the 14 day Scotland/Ireland tour and had a great time! There was so little stress because everything was taken care of, and our guide Patrick was very informative. We stayed in lovely hotels and saw everything you could imagine! Not much downtime, so be ready to move!

This was a great tour with lots to see and experience. Michael was a great driver with a wealth of knowledge and a great way making the history of the area interesting! This tour was a terrific way of getting our feet wet (well the rain helped, haha) of getting around the country and making us feel comfortable in Ireland!!

A friend and I joined the 14 Day Iconic Ireland Tour from 1 to 14 July 2023. The tour exceeded my expectations in terms of the range of places we visited and at the end I felt that I had discovered much of the country's scenic beauty, a variety of different destinations and learnt a great deal from a well informed and pleasant guide, Austin. I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see as much as possible of Ireland in two weeks in comfortable travel conditions.

August 2023 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
It's been almost a month since our 10 day My Ireland Tour, and my family and I can't stop talking and reflecting on how much the experience has meant to us. We were able to connect more with our Irish ancestry, as we learned about the history of the island and enjoyed the scenery of the different regions. Our driver and tour guide, Tom Lavin, was a big part of why our trip was so enjoyable. Besides taking such good care of us the entire time, making sure that everything ran smoothly, he was always ready to share with us his personal stories, humor and knowledge of the culture. We enjoyed all of the hotel accommodations and the breakfasts were always plentiful and delicious. Even with lots of families, and all different ages of people on the tour, there seemed to be something for everyone each day and at each stop. We highly recommend this tour! Thanks again to Tom, for an unforgettable trip!

My husband and I have wanted to visit Ireland for years, and newly both retired wanted to make our dream come true. I researched many tours of Ireland and was so impressed with the positive reviews. The tour exceeded all of our expectations!!! The itinerary was perfectly organized for our 14 day trip as we saw the highlights from both Northern Ireland and The Republic of Ireland. The guiding force to the success of the trip was tour guide Cathal ( Caw-hell). He was so personable, intelligent, funny and accommodating!! My goodness I felt like I was a student again as he was so knowledgeable about Irish history and made it interesting and understandable. This tour has been one of the highlights of our life. We both have Irish lineage and we felt so connected to the history and the people. The other important aspect to mention was that we had an amazing group of people that were fun, respectful and on time. Thank you for showing us the best of Ireland. I didn't even mind the rain Slainte, Amy and Kevin

August 2023 • Historic Irish Castle Tour
I would like to express my sincerest appreciation for the staff at My Ireland Tours. I booked the week-long historic castle tour as a gift for my son's high school graduation. It was his first time out of the United States and the first mother-son trip that we have ever taken together. First, Shannon was incredibly helpful in providing me with answers to questions regarding the booking so that there were zero concerns before my arrival. Second, I had by far the BEST tour guide that I could have imagined. Colm was amazing! He was incredibly attentive to all of us and made me feel completely safe and welcome. The itinerary for the week was just the right amount of time to see many of the main attractions in Ireland. I have heard and seen other schedules where too many activities were packed into each day. But this one was paced just right. The size of the tour was great in that it was large enough to have a nice variety of other fellow travelers to get to know, but intimate enough to feel like we were a nice little family by the end of the tour! I especially enjoyed getting a history of Ireland as we toured through the countryside. As a person of color who also has her own Irish roots, it was nice to see the connection of Ireland to other cultures acknowledged by both our driver and in the amazing interactivity of the EPIC museum in Dublin. It was a welcome reminder that we all have a shared history as part of the human experience. Overall, the trip far exceeded all expectations. I fell in love with the country, with the people, and with this company. I sing nothing but the highest praises for My Ireland Tours!

August 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
This was our first trip out of the country and I was nervous about it but My Ireland Tour was definitely the way to go. We took the castle tour and got to stay at beautiful places and eat three course meals almost every night. If we had booked the same lodging/activities/meals ourselves, it would easily have cost 5 times what we paid. Our tour guide made the drive between destinations entertaining and there were enough stops that I was never uncomfortable on the bus. I wish I could use My Ireland Tour to tour other countries!
Bernadette Gingrich
August 2023 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
It has been 2 weeks since we returned from our wonderful trip to Ireland. There were 5 of us, spanning 3 generations and we all had the trip of a lifetime. Everything was done well - hotels, food, transportation, tours. Ireland is a beautiful country with friendly, welcoming people. Our guide, Tom Laven, was incredible. Wit, knowledge of all things Irish and it's history. I think he could have made a bad trip seem good. I wish I were younger so I could return for several trips, but only if Tom were the guide. I did a lot of reading before deciding to choose The 10 day Iconic Tour of Ireland. It was the best decision I ever made. I would highly recommend this tour company to anyone wanting an overall view of the many things Ireland has to offer

My Scotland/Ireland tour was the best! Paddy was very kind and caring. He shared a great deal of history with my group and answered our questions. Very humorous as well which made the trip fun. I would recommend Paddy for future tours. Great experience!
Penelope Goldstein
August 2023 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
Our 14-day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour was fantastic. The itinerary was perfect for us. All the stops along the way were truly worth visiting; not 'tourist traps', and we had adequate time to enjoy them. Our driver/ guide, Cathal, was great; fun & entertaining, and he gave us background on everything from early Christianity to Gaelic football. It was probably the rainiest weather we've ever had on vacation, but it hardly mattered. We would sign up for another My Ireland tour in a heartbeat.

My Ireland Tour was so awesome to work with! Kristel was great at helping us plan a tour for our family (11 in all), understood our needs and wants, and answered all of our questions. We had a great 7-day tour, with Ben Sullivan as our driver/guide. Ben was super knowledgeable and was very understanding when we changed plans a bit to allow the children to have some off-bus time. I would definitely recommend My Ireland Tour if you are planning a trip to Ireland.

We had a fantastic time, John McSweeney was the absolute best driver/guide we could have hoped for. He went over and above what he needed to do , he wanted to give us all the best trip possible and he accomplished it. Our first trip to Ireland and it will not be our last. We want to continue exploring Europe and My Ireland tour will be our go to company. Thank you John and My Ireland tour for a great time.

Our 10 day tour in Ireland was a wonderful experience! My family and I had a great time! Tom was a great tour guide. He shared with us lot's of interesting information about the places we visited and also about Ireland history and current situation. The hotels were all very comfortable. We would only suggest that there should be more options for the dinner menus. Other than that, we highly recommend My Ireland Tour!
Nick Nikzat

My wife (Sherry) and I thoroughly enjoyed our 10 day tour of Ireland! Colm Marshall was our guide/driver, and his stories, and depth of knowledge of Irish history was amazing. Our hotels were quite nice and comfy, with amazing service everywhere (breakfast + dinner services, as well as check-in/out). The bus was spacious and comfortable, and the routes that we were on gave us a great view of the sites of small towns, beautiful hills, and the hundreds of castles we drove past. We made some great friends as part of the tour, and have been keeping in touch with a few of them, and have recommended this tour to many of our friends.

Me and my husband travelled Ireland after a long waiting for CoVID 19. After a long research, found this company as I wanted a local company that takes smaller group. I'm used to private trip but I have to say , this tour was amazing and met my expectations. From begging to end everything went perfect. Shannon did booking and correspondence excellent. Now our driver /tour guide , Kathal was superb with providing every details, courteous and humerus and taking care of all of us. I never felt rushed and able to enjoy in a relaxing way.Overall I highly recommend this trip to anyone that wants to go to Ireland

Lovely tour. The accommodations were good and every place was clean and well managed. The tour guide/coach driver was wonderful. Brian was instrumental in connecting all the passengers to Ireland's history, people and places. The tour group was congenial and terrific to share this experience with. I highly recommend the tour company and the driver/ guide Brian Treanor.

We took the 14 day Scotland and Ireland tour. From our first communication with Keith , we were off to a good start. We can't say enough about Ken O'connell our tour guide. He was both funny, and a wealth of knowledge. He was able to tell us so much about the countries, and all the stops we made in between! We know Ken worked hard but he made it look easy, he is very good at his job! I will not hesitate to recommend My Ireland Tour to anyone!!!! I would love to do another tour with them in the future!

Best Tour Ever! Our driver Tony McGooye an absolute professional. Expert at guiding us around Ireland with an informed history of the land and all the sights to see. We loved the historic castles and surrounding towns and villages. So nice to get out of the big cities. The people of Ireland are a delight. This was my second time to visit and I cannot wait to return.

Mick Keane was our driver and our trip wouldn't have been what it was without his expertise. He is a wonderful driver, storyteller, and his knowledge of Irish history was expansive. He managed to keep us on time for all the sights and tour stops without making us feel rushed. Having a someone behind the wheel allowed us to enjoy all of the beautiful scenery and sights. We had a lot of laughs, learned a lot, and thoroughly enjoyed the experience! We whole heartedly recommend!
Jesse Miller
July 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
Wonderful driver and guide, Sean was incredibly knowledgeable, personable, and funny. The handful of 'photo stops' throughout the journey, which were not listed on the itinerary, were some of the most scenic views I've been blessed to witness in my lifetime. The accommodations were very high end and all the provided meals , whether a pub or a castles fine dining room were top notch. You truly get a feel for the history and geography of the land plus the coach was so roomy and comfortable. Highly recommend if you are a lover of castles, beautiful scenery, village walks, and great food and drink.

Wonderful trip from start to finish. We stayed at Faithlegg House Hotel in Waterford, Killarney Towers Hotel in Killarney, Park House Hotel in Galway City and Trinity City Hotel in Dublin. One was more beautiful than the other and the staff was fantastic. Mike Riordan, our driver was a wealth of knowledge and always quick with a joke. Having our own small group of fifteen was another plus as well. We were on our own schedule and could make changes when we wanted. Killarney was our favorite town and we just happed to be there when County Kerry won the All Ireland Championship and everyone in the town was celebrating. Kristel was so easy to work with in our planning stage. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tours.

We recently completed the 14 day Ireland tour with Michael Coleman. He was knowledgeable, entertaining, and attentive to everyone's needs. We learned so much about the fascinating Irish mythology, history, politics and culture. I am already continuing my education with some of the films Michael suggested. Our travel companions were delightful (25 people), and we shared a FB page where we could all post. Food and hotels were okay but not great. Definitely would travel with them again if they add an itinerary of sites we haven't already seen, as I plan to return to Ireland again.

July 2023 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
We spent 14 days with Michael Coleman, exploring the entire island. We could not have been more pleased. The itinerary included everything we were interested in seeing and Michael was a wonderful, pleasant, helpful tour guide/ driver. He worked very diligently to ensure everything progressed smoothly. The hotels were certainly adequate and the meals for the most part were good. Lots of chicken and fish lol. And those full Irish breakfasts! The only suggestion we have is on the day everyone arrives, an evening reception would enable folks to mingle and start to get to know one another prior to hopping on the bus the next morning. We will certainly recommend this company to family and friends interested in seeing Ireland. Thanks.

We booked an 8 day private tour with My Ireland for our entire family of 12 in July 2023. Our ages ranged from 10-65. What a wonderful experience we all had! Kristel was so easy to work with and patient with all of my questions. Our driver, John McSweeney, is a true gem. He has a vast knowledge of Ireland and was always listening to us and making every effort to accommodate everyones wishes. He also made unscheduled stops that ended up being some of our favorites! For example, he asked if we wanted to see a working sheepdog, which we did and had the best time. Our grandson asked about hurling and John had a friend of his, who hurls, meet our bus and show our grandson a hurling stick and sliotar (ball). We were hungry one day after the Cliffs of Moher and he called ahead and booked us into a pub in a little town that was some of the best food we had the entire trip! My only complaint is that we needed about two more weeks! Hopefully we will be back and we will definitely use MyIreland and request John again.

Our tour guide with My Ireland Tours was Sean O'Sullivan. We had the absolute best time! Every scenic stop we made was absolutely breathtaking. Ireland is definitely the most beautiful country I have ever been to. If you're lucky enough to have Sean for a guide, don't be afraid to spill the craic, he's got a great sense of humor!

We had a group of 5 people with varying energy/activity levels. The six day tour was perfect for our group! We were able to see a ton without being exhausted (for those with less energy) and without being bored (for those with more energy). Brian was informative and always eager to help or answer questions. We also loved that Brian had a great sense of humor and gave us history and commentary when it was important but did not just randomly talk all day long. We greatly appreciated that the buses are consciously left with open seats to allow space but also to make us feel less crowded at each of the sites. It truly did not feel like we were part of a tour at most sites.

My daughter and I returned home from this tour 11 days ago, and I just can't stop talking about it! Colm Clarke, our driver/guide was excellent! He has a vast knowledge of Irish history, custom and culture, and eagerly shared this with our group. He has a cheerful personality and a quick wit. His driving skills are top notch. I felt safe every moment that we were with him. It was nice to have all of our admission tickets taken care of by someone else. The castles and their stories are fascinating. The rich beauty of the countryside is well worth the ride. Lunch at Greta's farm was delicious. I told her she should write a cookbook. As first time visitors to Ireland, this was the perfect choice for sightseeing.

Our family group of four had a private tour with a van and our outstanding guide and driver, Ray Cullinan. He was knowledgeable, personable, unintrusive but available. I could go on and on. It was our second trip to Ireland and we worked with Kristel to design our 12 day trip. Our accomodations ranged from Inns to farmhouse manors to contemporary urban hotels and they were all lovely. The sites we saw were as planned and Ray suggested others along the way. Our weather was perfect. We had pouring down rain, beautiful rainbows and sunny days. The scenery was fabulous. It was truly iconic Ireland from cozy pubs to sheep in the road. I would not hesitate to recommend My Ireland and our wonderful guide Ray. In fact I already have.

We just finished our 10 day iconic scenes of Ireland tour and it was phenomenal. Tom Lavin was a great tour guide and driver. He was extremely efficient with every phase of our trip, was an excellent and safe driver, and shared so much knowledge with our group as we traveled across Ireland. Of course the country itself was spectacular and we thoroughly enjoyed it. All in all if we travel the Emeral Isle again we will use My Ireland Tours and also request Tom.

July 2023 • 6 Day Iconic Scenes
I recently returned from the 6-day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. I was traveling with my husband and our 14 year-old son. We all enjoyed the tour so much. We felt that it was very well paced - we were able to see a lot of the different regions of Ireland and hit the highlights, but it never felt overwhelming or exhausting. There was always time to relax with a drink in a pub or enjoy a leisurely meal or do some exploring on our own. We also liked that, while a couple of the attractions we visited had guided tours, we weren't herded around as a group the entire time. Many times, we were dropped off at a location and told what time to meet back on the bus, but then we could decide what we wanted to do/see at that particular place (whether it was a town/city or someplace like the Blarney Castle or Cliffs of Moher). I appreciated the balance between a structured itinerary and some freedom within that framework. Our driver/guide, Brian, was friendly, helpful, always in good spirits, and he was an excellent driver, navigating the winding cliffs and corkscrew turns on narrow roads with ease! He was very knowledgeable about Ireland and shared helpful tidbits of history, local culture and language, and Irish music along the way. The coach bus was spacious and very comfortable with large windows, air conditioning, footrests, and plush seats. We had 23 people on the tour and the bus could have fit twice as many, so plenty of room to spread out and relax. The time on the coach was a great time to catch a catnap or take in the gorgeous scenery. The hotels we stayed at were modern and comfortable, and most importantly, they were centrally located near restaurants and other attractions. In Dublin, we were able to walk to St. Stephen's Green, Trinity College, Grafton Street, which was so convenient. The hub-and-spoke format of the tour itinerary was great because we only had to move hotels one time, but still got to see a lot of the country. Everything was generally well organized and ran smoothly, which made for a stress-free trip! I wouldn't hesitate to go on another My Ireland Tour trip, and I will certainly recommend them to others.

Mr. Clarke was an exceptional guide with both his commentary and attention to our individual questions needs. the tour revealed parts of Ireland new to me and helped me understand more about the country and culture. Thank you!!!

We went on the Iconic Scenes of Ireland 10-day tour. Our itinerary was jam-packed with places to go, but never exhausting, and our tour guides were wonderful: both well-read on the locations, and so very friendly and accommodating. I'm already considering their other available tours!

Thank you for a wonderful experience! Every aspect of the 6-Day Iconic Scenes Tour exceeded our expectations. Our tour guide and driver, Garey Goddard, was fantastic. He provided a wealth of interesting information, and ran our tour precisely and perfectly. The pre-trip communications with Keith O'Driscoll were perfect as well. My husband and I recommend this tour very highly, and hope to take another My Ireland Tour in our future travels.

July 2023 • Historic Irish Castle Tour
Upside: The Historical Castle Tour Itinerary and our Bus Drive Colm, were absolutely fantastic! I can't say enough good things about his vast knowledge of history and quick wit. Being a single Mom I was a little concerned about how things would go, but my 2 teen boys and I all had a great time! Thank you Colm and My Ireland Tours! Downside: At no fault of the Tour... I did have some issues with the booking of 2 rooms NEAR each other at the Riu Gresham Hotel and waited several hours for the second room, even after giving advanced notice both times. Remember... with the Historical Castle Tour you are staying in actual old castles and they have their quirks. Biggest concern for me was that none of the restaurants list MSG as a food allergy, so be sure to ask before ordering. Otherwise, all the stays tried to be as accommodating as possible. Overall: I LOVED traveling with My Ireland Tours, felt very safe and look forward to traveling with them again!!!

July 2023 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
My wife and I, along with 6 other family members, did the 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour from July 10-19, 2023. It was fantastic and very well run. Our driver, Tony, did a great job of keeping us informed of the schedule each day so there was never any question as to when or where we needed to be at any time. He was very amusing and I especially appreciated all of the historical and cultural information he imparted along the way. This gave me a real appreciation for the country and its people and made the trip more than just an amazing sightseeing trip, although it was that too. Along with the major tourist attractions, we got to see some lesser-known, but equally interesting places like Hazel Mountain Chocolates, an incredible sheep dog demonstration, and the beautiful work of the artisans at the Celtic Crystal factory. We also had a delicious home-cooked lunch at a farmhouse Bed & Breakfast that brought back childhood memories of meals that my grandmother cooked. It's impossible to pick out a single highlight. The small group size (we had a total of 23 people) was perfect because we had plenty of room to spread out on the bus. We never felt like we were part of a large mob being herded from one place to the next, and the bus was immaculate and very comfortable. I highly recommend this tour and this company.

July 2023 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
I am so happy that I discovered My Ireland Tour! Our family of seven adults and 9 month old grandson just returned from a fantastic 10 day iconic tour of Ireland. Kristel O'Connor was very timely with her emails to me regarding our reservations and was very accommodating with our requests for a baby cart seat and cots in hotel room. The hotels were super, including the breakfasts. We stayed at the Hardiman Hotel in Galway, the Drumhall Hotel in Killarney, the Imperial Hotel in Cork and the Alex Hotel in Dublin. I was initially disappointed that we were not able to stay at the hotel in Kinsale but the Imperial Hotel in Cork was beautiful and the staff were excellent, in fact it was my favorite hotel. We had a private sprinter van that seated nine passengers plus two seats for the driver and guide. The van had large side windows so everyone had a wonderful view at all times. Our driver, David Darby was also excellent, with impressive driving skills! He was very timely with our pickups and accommodating with our requests for small changes in the agenda. He provided a lot of information about the places we visited and kept us entertained with his many jokes. Our Dublin guide, Denise, was also excellent as were our two relief drivers, Joe and Sam. My husband and I are from Ireland, and our family has had many trips to Ireland in the past. The tour included places we had never visited and some places that we visited a long time ago; we have never seen so many places in one visit. We also had some fantastic meals during our visit and only one day of rain!! I am not a fan of big tour groups but would definitely recommend a small group tour with My Ireland Tour and will consider going on another one myself.

July 2023 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
First visit to Ireland, we will definitely go again on my Ireland tour, we did the 14 day iconic tour with Michael Coleman as our guide. We was a fantastic tour guide, his knowledge of the history is second to none, he made the history of Ireland interesting. The tour was a great mix of interesting things to do

July 2023 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
Our My Ireland Tour was outstanding. The tour was well planned and scheduled to see an amazing number of sights around the island. The hptels were very nice with excellkent service. Our tour guide, Tony, was knowledgeable and entertaining, giving us many tidbits of historical and cultural info as we drove each day. We thoroughly enjoyed all the major tourist destinations without ever waiting in a line, and also enjoyed some less popular sights such as the Celtic Crystal Shop, Hazel Mtn Chocolates, a farmhouse luncheon and sheep dog demonstration. I highly recommend this Iconic 10 day tour!

July 2023 • Discover Northern Ireland
We took the Northern Ireland tour in early July 2023, and it was a fantastic experience. Setting aside the fantastic price, our tour bus was spacious, clean, and, comfortable, as were all our hotel accomodations. The breakfasts and dinners were consistently excellently tasting, and there were numerous choices for both. Our driver/tour guide, George, was definitely one of the best we have experienced in our travels, as he was personable, highly knowledgeable, and a very skilled driver. The excursions were included in the tour price (as was the lodging and morning/evening meal) and there was more than enough time at each location to do some exploring after the day had come to an end.
Stephen Ryan
July 2023 • Deluxe Castles Tour
My partner and I did the Deluxe Castles Tour over nine days with Colm Marshall as our driver/guide. The highs included the visit to the Beleek Pottery where we got to see how their pottery is made, our time at Loch Eske Hotel, the visit to Derry, dinner in the Pullman Carriage at the Glenlo Abbey Hotel and Estate, the many new friends that we made and of course the skill and humour of Colm. The few lows were the incessant wet weather that followed us right round Ireland and our small room in the Cahernane Hotel with the Fawlty like staff at breakfast both days. Would we recommend the tour - definitely we lowered the experience and in dry weather it would be brilliant.
Laura Deise
July 2023 • Deluxe Castles Tour
When we decided to make a journey to Ireland, we searched through many websites and landed on My Ireland Tours because of their reputation for great excursions and the sense of family woven into the business. And when we emailed Eric, all of our concerns faded away - our 10-day tour of historic Deluxe Irish Castles was brought to life! Rick and I were celebrating both my 60th birthday and our 15th wedding anniversary and were hoping to see much of Ireland while staying in best-in-class hotels. We were not disappointed! We met our careful and unbelievably skilled tour guide Eamonn Broderick and it was immediately apparent that he was a prolific storyteller and engaged us in many, MANY stories! He was the perfect host for this adventure; he single-handedly kept us all in stitches throughout the journey. The accommodations were all excellent - 4 and 5 stars; each unique in its own way. The hospitality and meals at each location were superb. Meals presented the perfect opportunity to engage with others on our trip. Throughout the days and evenings, we were able to share meals with everyone and had very special moments with each of them. We enjoyed a few meals 'on the road. 'A highlight was lunch at The Blind Piper Pub; since 1865 serving the best fish & chips and beef & Guinness pie (and Guinness Stout)! In addition to the planned itinerary, Eammon scheduled an impromptu visit to Atlantic Sheepdogs in Streedagh, Grange, north of County Sligo (nestled in between the Atlantic Ocean and beneath the tabletop of Benbulben Mountain). The enterprise is run by Martin and Trish Feeney (with three children and Martin's wonderful father and mother who live next to the farm) and has been winning awards since Martin was 11-years old (the youngest ever to win). Martin and “Mol' were so closely choreographed with one another….Mol would do whatever Martin commanded with his whistle! Their exploits were stunning! We stopped for classic photo opportunities along the way and visited towns where we could shop for keepsakes and to simply get a flavor of Irish life. We were most impressed with Kylemore Abbey. Built as a castle in 1868 with a thousand acres of land, the Abbey had so much to discover, we would have liked an entire day to discover its many wonders. We could not leave the Abbey without trying their warm apple pie with custard (highly recommended by Eammon) - oh, what a delight! We even had dinner in authentic carriages from the Orient Express at Glenlo Abbey Hotel & Estate with 138-acres of meticulous, five-star quality! And, of course, our final lodging was the K Club, a five-star estate founded in 1832 with 550-acres of lush property. Everything about this property was spectacular - a genuine treat for our 'family' of twenty-six. Our review is 5-stars because everything that was promised was delivered! We tip our hats to Eric and My Ireland Tours, Eamonn - an excellent ambassador, and 'the family' we came to know and love for a most memorable trip!

July 2023 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
My wife and I took your 14 day Iconic Scenes tour in mid-June could not be more pleased with the experience. From our first evening dinner to airport drop-off when leaving everything was set up to make things easy and enjoyable. All the hotels were very nice and meals were also good. We had never taken a trip like this before so had a little doubt about how it would go but we quickly saw how well everything was planned out. Not having to drive allowed me to actually look out the windows and the added height of the bus gave a much better view of everything than a car.(and probably saving several local drivers from dodging a rental car on the wrong side of the road!) Arriving at attractions and basically walking right in is something you can't do on your own as the tour arranges times and buys the tickets. At many of the locations there was a local guide which added to the experience. The coach itself was more comfortable than I thought it would be, both ride and noise. If I had anything to change (and this is a minor point to me) there was a time when meals got a little repetitive. I have to mention the people of Ireland as some of the nicest people I have ever run across. They were sometimes offering directions before we knew we were lost. (maybe I just have that look) Lastly, I would like to give our driver/guide John thanks for making everything so easy and fun. I appreciated his 'realness' and humor and additionally wanted to thank him for hanging back on some of the walks to make sure I was OK. For anyone looking to take this type of tour I would suggest you call here first and save yourself some time.

My Ireland Tour - what a simply wonderful experience!! We loved our 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. Comfortable travel across Ireland on their bus. The selected resorts for lodgings were FIRST rate. And our tour director Colm expertly mixed ancient Irish history with current events, and provided insight to the true Irish culture we visited. Our only regret was not having more time available to visit more of Ireland! My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our holiday!! Thank you all!

My experience with the Irish tours could not have been anymore 'cracking'. It has been one of the most memorable out of state experiences that I will remember throughout my life. However, this trip would not have been has half as amazing if it was not for our tour guide, Tom Lavin. Not only is he a phenomenal driver, but his hospitality and his knowledge on various things makes going on tours an overall great experience.
Michele Lemen
July 2023 • Ancient Ireland Tour
We just returned from the Ancient Ireland Tour (Dingle) with our guide, Harry Fischer. Harry is a gem. He is knowledgeable, personable, and hilarious. He educated us about the history and folklore of Ireland in a wonderfully entertaining way, answering our questions and allowing us the freedom to explore as much of the countryside as we needed. We never felt rushed or warehoused; it was a perfect balance of guided tour vs. independent exploration. Every tour, meal and accommodation was excellent. My Ireland Tour and Harry took care of us and, need I say spoiled us, for any other vacation. (In fact, my husband jokingly asked Harry if he would lead us on every vacation here on out, whether it is in Ireland or not). Thank you for a wonderfully magical experience. It was our first visit to Ireland, but we will return.

July 2023 • Custom / Private Tour
We all loved our first 'cousins trip' with My Ireland Tour in 2019 so much that when we decided to arrange a second one for summer 2023, without a moment's hesitation, we turned once again to My Ireland Tour. With the bar set so high from the first trip, I doubted the second could surpass it - but somehow it did. It was no mean feat for My Ireland Tour's owner Eric O'Gorman to help us organize a private 10-day tour that successfully accommodated - and entertained ' an age range from 11 to 80. During the planning stage, he patiently answered questions and made changes to the itinerary to work in everyone's requests. The accommodations he arranged for us were terrific – especially memorable were the fabulous Ballynahinch Castle, Faithlegg House, and Dingle Skellig Hotel. Our 2019 driver-guide Ben Sullivan took care of us on the road once again (at our request), and was once again a delight. We all appreciated the tour's 2 nights, 1 night, 2 nights, 1 night, etc. structure, so we didn't have to pack up and move every morning. It will be a very, very long time before I forget our amazing day on Inismore in the Aran Islands, or our night of music and Irish dancing in The Dingle Pub (to name just two of the many highlights). Thank you, My Ireland Tour, for helping us add wonderful new stories to our family memory bank.

Just took the 10 day scenic Ireland tour with my daughter in July and I still can't stop talking about it. Our driver/tour guide Tom Lavin was extraordinary. The information about Ireland he shared was priceless. He was organized and kept us informed each day we were there We didn't have to worry about anything. We still are amazed how he drove the bus through some small and wanding roads and never hit anything. We have taken tons of pictures and made tons of memories that will last a life time. We are even checking out other trips within the company. Any questions we had or any concerns we would send an email and got a quick response. The office staff was amazing and didn't care how many times we asked a question they just wanted us to be satisfied. Definitely would recommend this trip and any other trip with this company.

I just returned from the Iconic Scotland and Ireland tour and it surpassed all my expectations! Paddy O'Farrell was the best guide. He was personable, funny and told great stories of Scotland and Ireland history and legends. Several times Paddy added extra stops that were not on the itinerary. We stayed in amazing places and saw so much of these beautiful countries. We also had plenty of time to explore on our own. I would love to return again for another tour with My Ireland Tours.

I did the 10 day iconic scenes of Ireland with MyIreland Tours. It's a perfect way to see all the main sites of Ireland with a small group. Tom Lavin was our driver / tour guide and was a big reason we had such a wonderful trip. Tom's knowledge of Ireland and helpful tips of where to stop for great local food or drinks was excellent. Thanks Tom for making our trip so fun!

July 2023 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
This review is for the 14 - day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour which we took in June, 2023. We cannot add anything new to the already posted, glowing reviews of the company with which we agree wholeheartedly, including those with shout-outs to Shannon for consistently rapid responses to our pre-tour queries. Even given those reviews, the tour exceeded our expectations. The main purpose for this review is to have our Driver-Guide, Cathal, mentioned by name as being excellent in both the guide and driver capacities. My Ireland Tours states: “You can expect your tour guide to be... 100% Irish Passionate about Ireland Fully Qualified as an Irish Guide An experienced professional An expert on Irish history and culture Impeccably safe in all driving conditions Fully committed to your care' We can vouch that Cathal was passionate about Ireland, willingly and engagingly shared his vast knowledge about the country and kept us safe in all driving conditions. As far as we can tell, he met the other expectations too. Beyond these explicit qualifications, Cathal was personable, sharing personal perspectives and anecdotes which enriched our experience of the country. He answered questions readily and had a knack for keeping the mood of the group light. He responded to some slight teasing with good humour. Importantly, being a model guide, we never once had to ask where the toilet facilities were; at every single stop Cathal provided that information. Yes, that is important! Thank you, Cathal. Thank you My Ireland Tours for providing us with the experience that lived up to your reputation'

10/10. i worked with Kristel to put together a private tour for our family of 17 including kids and it turned out better than i could have imagined.

Our tour guide, Raymond, was very knowledgeable. i would recommend this company to everyone wanting to tour Ireland.

July 2023 • Deluxe Castles Tour
My husband and I would recommend the Deluxe Castle tour to anyone who wants to stay in 4.5 to 5 star accommodations, enjoys having someone do your thinking for you and wants a taste of Ireland in 10 days. We especially enjoyed the guidance of our driver Paddy who offered historic and personal knowledge of the areas we visited. Expect to pack comfortable shoes, sweaters and a raincoat but also a couple of dress outfits ( men, you may want nice slacks and a dress shirt). Do not expect to spend hours on your own shopping. This is a trip to experience history and culture. Given the opportunity by your driver/guide, take advantage of short side trips “ into town', especially to Donegal ( wool shops) and Killarney ( pubs and music). This particular tour was for 26 people allowing us to get to know others on our coach. What wonderful memories.

What a great tour! This trip was everything I hoped it would be. We packed a lot into 6 days but I also felt that we had plenty of free time. Our driver, Cathal, was very knowledgeable and answered our questions. The hotels were nice and and the food was fantastic. If you have never been to the island before (like me), I would highly recommend My Ireland Tour. I cannot wait to return to Ireland! What wonderful memories.

I just took the 14-Day Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour with Paddy O'Farrell. Paddy was an excellent tour guide, a very safe driver, always giving us great recommendations and keeping us safe. He was extremely knowledgeable and taught us so much history, was very funny and did a great job herding us and keeping us on schedule. I would recommend this company to anyone who is looking to take a tour of Scotland or Ireland. Wonderful, wonderful memories!! Thank you My Ireland Tour and Paddy!

July 2023 • Historic Irish Castle Tour
My mom and I recently returned from the 7-day Historic Castle Tour. Our driver and guide was Colm Clarke. I cannot say enough great things about him! He was so knowledgable about Irish history, very accommodating, punctual and had a fantastic sense of humor. He was very skilled at driving the big motor coach and we felt very safe. He truly made the trip so enjoyable but also taught us so many facts and tidbits about Irish history and culture. He always made sure we were comfortable and checked to see how we liked the lodging, the sites and the food. Our luggage arrived a day late from the airport and he even called the castle we were heading to, to alert them that it should be arriving there for us. He even managed to squeeze in two extra stops for us that were not on the original itinerary: Bunratty Castle and a visit to Galway. Colm is a huge asset to My Ireland Tour! I would highly recommend this tour company!!

Tom's pure Irish passion, knowledge, expertise and 100% commitment to ensure everyone and everything was taken care of, never stopped! We had challenging weather; driving with those conditions took an expert, and Tom was. Thank you Tom! Each day was filled with history and beauty. The 10 day Iconic tour was perfect. We will visit again on another MyIrelandtours! Thank you.

It is indeed rare to find a tour company that so thoroughly delivers on ALL of its promises. Our group of 7 travellers got along famously and was in good hands with driver/guide, David Breen. Dave was an historical treasure trove of information with a wicked sense of humor. Our time was well planned, food delicious, and hotels excellent. Highly recommended.
Don Albert
July 2023 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
We took the '14 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour' starting 17 June 2023. It was a wonderful tour that delivered everything promised. The hotels were first-rate, the meal choices were good, and the sights were indeed iconic. In these current days of massive airline delays and flight cancellations, we booked flights to arrive a day in advance, and booked a room in the Dunboyne hotel for the night before first night of the tour. As it happened, our flight from Dallas was delayed from a 10 AM arrival to 6 PM in Dublin. The hotel was gorgeous, and we had a delicious dinner in the bar of the hotel. We slept in till noon the next morning, and then met some of our companions on the tour as they made it to the hotel. Except for tours around Belfast and Dublin, we traveled mostly through the countryside, on two lane, sometimes quite narrow roads. Coming from Arizona, USA, what struck us the most was how GREEN everything was: Ireland truly deserves the name of the 'Emerald Isle'. All the hillsides covered with small fields, divided by hedgerows in the north, and stone walls in the south, with every field having its complement of sheep, cattle, or sometimes both. And all the well-kept houses along the way, many with stone fronts and flowers blooming everywhere. Our driver/guide, Cathal Clarke, was a fount of information on Irish history, both Northern Ireland and the Irish Republic, as well as being personable and funny. He always made sure we were where we were supposed to be and knew how much time we had and when to be back to the bus.

July 2023 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
My wife and I had what has got to be one of the best trips of our lifetime with My Ireland Tours, the Discover Scotland and Ireland 14 day tour. Becky has always been interested in the monarchy of the U.K. What a treat to have walked where Mary Queen of Scots and other royals walked. We even had lunch in a cute little restaurant where Prince William had his first date, and according to the restaurant manager we spoke to, numerous subsequent dates, with Princess Kate. The magnificence of the beautiful cathedrals we visited along with the many castles and palaces helped to make this a real trip of a lifetime. Thankfully we were told early on In Edinburgh that touching the noise of the statue of Greyfriar's Bobby would bring good luck, because doing so helped us to have wonderful weather for most of the trip. Pat our tour guide/driver was so much more than that. Yes, he was extremely knowledgeable, and constantly kept us informed about the history and geology of the areas we visited, but he also went out of his way to make sure that our trip was as special as it could possibly be. He became a good friend, and my wife even told me the other day that she misses him. Thanks Pat, for all you did to make this a truly wonderful trip. Hal and Becky Gersch.

I took my two teen nephews on a tour with My Ireland Tours. It was wonderful starting with Eric O'Gorman who helped plan a fun six day trip answering my many questions and being attentive to my requests. Our driver, Maurice Kelly, was a perfect fit. He has grandchildren the same age as my nephews so he could communicate well with them. He was knowledgeable about every area we visited. He was polite, funny and friendly. Maurice showed us more than was on our itinerary and was able to suggest good places to eat. Everywhere we went, we were greeted warmly and had no problem with any meals, accomodations, or visits to places that needed tickets. Everything was very well planned and organized. Side comment: Our driver thought our visit to the Cliffs of Mohr would literally be a wash out as there were strong winds and constant rain, but afterwards, the boys said it was one of their highlights! (An adventure that no one expected!). I would trust My Ireland Tours to help me plan future trips. Also, thank you to everyone behind the scenes who made this introduction to Ireland a great one.

Several months ago, my wife and I decided to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary by taking our ten family members, aged from 81 to 11 years, on a tour of the Republic of Ireland---a country that we did not know. Searching the internet, I lighted on My Ireland Tours and entered into contact with Keith O'Driscoll. We wanted a tour which emphasised Irish history, culture, small villages, and landscapes. (Dublin, we decided, we could organise on our own). Keith could not have been more patient, accommodating and helpful in his suggestions over the course of many emails and phone calls. The seven day tour exceeded our expectations. My Ireland Tours contracted O'Callaghan Coaches to provide a new commodious bus driven by the guide, Keith Boyd (more later). The tour organised by Keith O'Driscoll was excellently paced, covering all which we wanted to see. The accommodations were excellent (The Dublin Gresham, undergoing renovations, was a little too tour group intensive, to my mind) and the sites selected responded perfectly to our interest in Irish cultural history. Everything was efficiently done. Keith Boyd, the guide, really made the trip the great success it was. Beyond being a skilled and safe driver along the country roads which dominated our tour, he was a fount of knowledge of the history, lore, culture, gastronomy and even sports of each county visited. Keith was most generous with his time, occasionally exceeding his scheduled hours to accompany us to certain cultural events outside the programme. He related wonderfully to the three kids on the trip, taking their incessant questions in stride. In the end, we really felt that we had made a friend whom we would wish to visit if we returned to Ireland. We cannot say enough good things about our My Ireland Tour arrangements.

We did a small group 10 day Iconic Tour and it was amazing! I couldn't imagine planning it ourselves and then driving ourselves. This tour was worth every penny we spent on it. Our driver was fabulous, David provided a lot of history and information we wouldn't have learned anywhere else. He was very accommodating and we truly enjoyed having him as our guide, it was like he was part of the family by the end of the trip. The hotels were great, much nicer than anything we would book ourselves. I would highly recommend this tour company all the staff we worked with were great. It definitely maxmized what we were able to see in 10 days.

My husband and I planned for this trip for over a year and truly enjoyed it! Our bus driver/guide Ken set the tone for trip. He was funny and he was extremely knowledgeable about the areas. Having a small group was wonderful and we were fortunate to get to know them all. Two of our highlights were spending the night in a castle and the sheep herding experiences. I highly recommend My Ireland Tours.

Absolutely outstanding, Colm our driver/guide took our trip to the next level. He made the long drives go by quick with his story telling, extensive knowledge of the history of Ireland and his sense of humor. I could not be more pleased with our experience, thank you to everyone at My Ireland Tour, we cannot thank you enough!.

July 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour. My Ireland Tours is very efficient and responsive. Everything was well planned and and ran smoothly. Our driver/guide also was terrific. Peter kept us on schedule and told us a great deal about Irish history, the sites we were visiting, the climate, the terrain, the government and many other topics. He worked extremely hard and went out of his way to help people on the tour and to show us things that were not mentioned as part of the tour but that he knew about and wanted to share with us. Our visit to the Cliffs of Moher was uncomfortable, but that certainly wasn't the fault of the tour company. The wind that day was blowing at gale force, approaching hurricane force, which make it hard to keep upright, hold the camera, etc. It also was very crowded with people, which wouldn't have mattered if it was a nice sunny day with a gentle breeze. But given the weather, visitors, including us, snapped a few picture then headed for the shelter of the visitor center/cafeteria, which was so crowded that it was hard to move about, use the bathrooms and get something to eat. The Cliffs are Ireland's number one tourist attraction, so people considering a trip to Ireland need to be aware that a visit to the Cliffs may not turn out to be all that great -- for reasons that are uncontrollable. The other thing I want to point out is that Ireland is bigger than many may realize, so the sites you want to see may involve a lot of driving time. That was the case for our tour. There were two days in particular where we drove for many hours, and while there were stops along the way we still spent an awful lot of time on the road. The solution to that problem is either to focus on just one corner of the country, or book a trip with more days so that there is time to break up the tour into smaller chunks. These are just general observations on my part. My Ireland Tours does a great job of planning and executing trips. It hires very good driver/tour guides, books very nice hotels with great food, and is quick to respond to inquiries and address problems that might crop up. I highly recommend them.

This small group, 8 day castle tour lived up to all my expectations! Our tour guide, David was absolutely wonderful! He gave us so much information on each area we visited and was a careful driver on the narrow country roads. He perfectly timed each visit, so that the next would be seamless. Our accommodations were extraordinary and the number of places we visited was remarkable. I truly cannot imagine exploring Ireland any other way! I would highly recommend this tour and this company and will likely book with them again in the future!

July 2023 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
Just completed the 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. This was one of the best vacations I have been on as the trip was stress free with all the details taken care of. The hotels were decent quality. The tour covered the major areas and sites in mid and Southern Ireland and the sites were interesting and varied. The driver, Tony, was exceptional and supplied a ton of history and even an Irish song or two! All the people on the tour were friendly as well. It was a great experience and I am looking forward to doing my next bus tour in another part of Europe. My only minor constructive criticism is the food at the hotels is very similar from hotel to hotel so it gets a bit monotonous. I would suggest working with hotels to ensure a bit more variety. Other than that, it was an A+ trip!!

We had an excellent experience on our Irish Tour. We booked a one-week tour with our extended family along the south of Ireland. Our guide, Keith, was knowledgeable, informative, and just a fun character to have around. We have children, and he was very patient with their very many questions. I feel that we got a very good window into Ireland's history, from the medieval period through the Easter Uprising and the Irish Civil War. Keith was also a great ambassador to Irish culture.

My wife and I were looking for a way to see Ireland with our two daughters and their families, including our three grandsons, ages 14, 16, and 19. We were 8 persons altogether. Eric at My Ireland Tours made all arrangements for us, including hotels, meal, and touring. Our 9-day trip was carefree and wonderful in every way. We had a private van and the usual knowledgeable very Irish driver, who seemed to have an anecdote about everything along the way. We were accommodated in comfortable hotels where we were expected and ushered to our rooms quickly and courteously. A highlight was an overnight visit to an Irish farmhouse, with an enterprising hostess who prepared gourmet dinner and breakfast for us. We had asked for a special stop at a tiny obscure village in County Roscommon, rumored to be the ancestral home of the clan carrying my family name, and that request was honored with alacrity. We experienced typical Irish music at a jam in a pub in Galway, never wanted for Guinness, and were deeply impressed not only by the beauty of the landscape, but also by the warmth and friendliness of the people. My Ireland Tours is the way to experience Ireland! They get at least five stars from our family.

July 2023 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
I participated in the 14 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour in June 2023. The tour was everything I had hoped for and more. The itinerary included castles, distilleries, places of interest, and an amazing view of the Irish countryside all around the beautiful Emerald Isle. The itinerary was well planned with much to see every day, as well as free time where it fit best. There was frequent comfort stops at places of interest, as well as the main attractions. Highlights included the Giant's Causeway and of course Blarney Castle. I do recommend arriving one or two days early, or staying one or two days after the tour to see Dublin properly. There was not a lot of free time in the itinerary for this, mostly because our first lodging was Dunboyne Castle Hotel, which is located outside the city. We did not see Dublin until the last day, and our free time then was limited. The best part of the trip by far was our guide/driver, Cathal. He was amazing in every respect. Not only was he a skilled and careful driver on the narrow Irish roads, he was very much attuned to our needs, interests and well being at all time. He has a great sense of humour and is a wealth of knowledge on the history and culture of every city, town and region in Ireland and was more than happy to share that knowledge at every turn. A guide/driver can make or break a holiday like this, and he most certainly made this a holiday to remember. I highly recommend My Ireland Tours in every respect.

Thank You to My Ireland Tour and our driver/guide, Colm, for a magical Ireland adventure! Our group of 21 from Canada, USA and Australia were wonderful! Colm is an excellent driver and fantastic storyteller! His extensive knowledge of Ireland's past and present is remarkable! He's an amazing, kind man with a lovely sense of humour! Our trip was very well organized! The hotels, food and people were great! The combination of cities, historical sites and countryside was perfect! We fell in love with magnificent Ireland! It was indeed a trip of a lifetime!

We did the 10 day iconic tour in June. Our driver, Tom Lavin, was part of what made the trip so great! He provided history about Ireland but also current events as we moved from one scenic location to the next. The tour provides a great introduction to the beautiful country of Ireland. We appreciated not having the worry about hotels, breakfast or dinner. We just enjoyed the journey! I highly recommend My Ireland Tour.

Great little tour with a fantastic guide. While the trip was a bit of a whirlwind, it provided the basic overview of some of Irelands must-see sites. Colm, our guide, was very kind, funny, and gave a great narration of Ireland's history, which was fascinating. The hotels were great. Comfortable rooms w/a great breakfast. Overall I'd say a great trip for the price!

We are back from a 14 day Scotland and Ireland tour and our entire family loved it! The itinerary was fabulous and we received top notch service from everyone at MIT. We had problems with airline cancellations and everyone was so helpful trying to help us rearrange our schedules in the best way possible to join the tour. Our tour guide, Pat, was the best! We would highly recommend this tour and My Ireland Tours to anyone thinking about traveling to Scotland and Ireland.

We just completed our 10 Day Iconic Tour of Ireland with My Ireland Tour Company. We had the trip of a lifetime. Our tour guide was Tom Lavin. Tom was fantastic! He made our trip go smoothly and worry free from start to finish. Tom gave us all the history behind all the fabulous sights which is why we chose to do a tour to begin with. Tom was funny and friendly and also offered some unexpected stops which were great. We could not have had a better time. I look forward to someday coming back to visit this beautiful country and using My Ireland Tour again. Thank you Tom!!!

A week wasn't long enough but we will be back! Saw so many amazing sites and our tour guide Peter was the best. He had so much knowledge and history of every place we visited. Enjoyed his stories and his guidance. The bus was comfortable and all the places we stayed, especially Ashford Castle, were top notch. Highly recommend My Ireland tours.

July 2023 • Deluxe Castles Tour
We are back from an amazing 12 day Ireland Deluxe Castle Tour with our family of six and feel like this was a top notch experience. We were treated likely royal quest at each location we visit with accommodations that exceeded my expectations. The tour description was more than was outlined as far as expectations and our guide Eammon was amazing - an amazing story teller, historian, comedian and all around amazing person. My Ireland Tour has a family feel to the experience but also provides a professional experience for travelers of all ages. Our group of 26 had 8 year olds to 70 year olds people alike. Our group became like a large family which only enhanced the experience.

We had an incredible trip on the Historic Irish Castles Tour with My Ireland. Our guide (Colm M.) was knowledgeable, personable, and organized. His commentary along the drives and the efficient way he handled the few (unavoidable) hiccups, really added to our trip in a wonderful way. The hotel in Dublin and the castle hotels were all beautiful, with excellent service and incredible food. It was truly the trip of a lifetime!

Thoroughly enjoyed our 14 day tour of Scotland and Ireland with Paddy O'Farrell as our guide. He was very knowledgeable, friendly and efficient. Everything was taken care of in terms of hotels, luggage, and meals. We loved all the fun stops we made along the way, and of course, the beautiful scenery of both countries. Would highly recommend anyone!

June 2023 • Ancient Ireland Tour
From the very beginning, Keith O'Driscoll, was extraordinarily responsive, helpful and effective and ensured all questions were answered in great detail and all preparations for the tour were ready. We were really amazed by the level of response and help he provided. Thank You Keith! Then there is Harry Fisher; tour guide, historian, professional driver and master of optimization of the whole tour experience. We could write so many accolades about all the little things he did. Suffice it to say – We Love You Harry 😊. We give MyIrelandTour 5 Stars, only because a constellation isn't an option. As to the destinations, 8 days is nowhere near the amount of time you will want to spend seeing this beautiful country and Its kind people. Accommodations - Brooks Hotel is within a short walking distance of so many things that we recommend arriving 2 days early to see Dublin…(Temple Bar, St. Patricks, Trinity College, Christ Church, Dublin Castle, Jennie Johnston and more). Brooks also had air conditioning that was nice for those of us who like a cold room to sleep. The accommodations were truly 4 star plus with 5 star dining experiences. These historical places with beautiful gardens, river, golf course or landscape views were magical. Whether gazing up the stream at Ballynahinch Castle, watching Red Tail deer grazing at The Cahernane House Hotel or sunrise over the golf course at Faithlegg, the views were peaceful and beautiful. Dining, well lets just say we tried a lot of new foods and beverages of which all were exquisite. Destinations were as wonderful and picturesque as google shows them. The only drawback is you will see that you need weeks to really take in all the little hidden jewels that you bypass hitting the more famous stops. If we ever get to go back, we would exclusively want to book with MyIrelandTour and would pray fervently to have Harry as guide again. Harry really set a high bar for others to follow.

June 2023 • Historic Irish Castle Tour
Our experience with the 7-Day Historic Irish Castle Tour was very good. The castles accommodations were all very comfortable and the meals excellent. Our driver/guide Colm was nice, witty and very kind, he provided us with Italian descriptions of the attractions we visited. He also quickly managed a bus malfunction on the third day while we were at Kinnity Castle, in three hours we were on the road again. Pity we could not visit the Rock of Cashel. At Keylemore Abbey we had one hour and a half for lunch and visit, that was definitely very short. We would have appreciated a longer stay considering that we arrived in the town of Clifden (10 minutes walk to the hotel) before 4.00 p.m. Otherwise excellent trip.

1st time ever doing a bus tour and could only hope they are all like this. Our 10 day castle tour was better than we expected and our tour operator Tony M was the best ever. He taught us so much about Ireland as a whole, we left with a very good understanding of what life was and is today. A++++ experience and hope to do another tour in the future.

June 2023 • Deluxe Castles Tour
We had a very enjoyable and memorable tour. Incredible that in the 10 days of the tour (in Ireland), that we had only one day with a light shower and did not need our warm or waterproof clothing! The castles accommodation were all very comfortable and the meals excellent - all contributing to a memorable experience. Our Driver/Tour Guide, Tom, is a BIG asset to My Ireland Tours! He was courteous, knowledgeable, considerate and has a good sense of humour. Timings and baggage requirements were handled with efficiency and his 'personal touch' - with handouts of crunchie bars and other items, were enjoyed by all. Tom was always a safe and considerate driver. Well done and thank you to Tom and My Ireland Tours.

My family of eleven adventurous souls recently returned from the 14 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour. It was as the Irish say 'brilliant'. The trip was well organized, the itinerary fascinating, wonderful hotels and the meals, on average, mostly delicious. Colm, our guide was knowledgeable, eloquent, very personable with a great sense of humour and most important was bestowed with the gift of the blarney ! Thanks for the tour and the endless memories.
Lisa Greene
June 2023 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
Ben was our tour guide and he was great. He told stories, explained alot about different events in Ireland's history, even sang songs! It was a very busy tour with not much down time, but we got the opportunity to see many areas of Ireland that we probably wouldn't have been able to see on our own. We started in Dublin, went to the EPIC Immigration Museum, the Guinness Brewery, and got to walk around Dublin. We ate at a restaurant called The Church, on our own, and I highly recommend it. They play traditional Irish Music every night and have Irish Step Dancers who were amazing to watch. Staying in Limerick was very nice. I got some photos of the sunset over the River Shannon at 9:30 at night, which was surreal. The sun sets around 8:30 on Cape Cod this time of year. Driving through the country side was beautiful. You see cows, cows, and more cows! But, the different way of life is eye opening! We drove through the Ring of Kerry. We stopped at a little village called Waterville which was beautiful. Killarney was nice also. We only got to spend 45 minutes in Galway City which was a bit of a disappointment. We would have wanted more time there. The Blarney Castle was amazing! And, as gross as it is, you HAVE TO kiss the Blarney Stone while you're there! The grounds at the castle were beautifully manicured and taken care of. The shopping at the Woolen Mills is a MUST! All in all it was a great trip. If you want to see many different spots and areas of the country, this is the way to do it. I do recommend Dramamine for anyone who gets even some motion sickness as being on the bus can be cumbersome and make you a little woozy. Ben was a great tour guide and a really nice guy. I do recommend this trip for groups of adults and teenagers (we had 5 with us, and they enjoyed it)!

A good friend and I just returned from a wonderful 14-day journey through Scotland, Northern Ireland, and the Republic of Ireland with My Ireland Tours. Our tour guide and driver, Paddy O'Farrell, was an excellent driver, making us feel very safe. Beyond that, he was so knowledgeable about the history and culture of the people of Scotland and Ireland, making the trip entertaining. Breakfast and dinner at our hotels were always included, as well as a lunch or two. All were delicious. The hotels were at least 4-star, and they provided excellent, friendly service. We always felt welcome in these beautiful countries. We were also lucky to travel with a very congenial group of people from different parts of the United States. I can highly recommend a trip to Scotland and Ireland as well as traveling with this excellent company, My Ireland Tours.
Carole Blakey
June 2023 • Deluxe Castles Tour
We were on the Castles tour in early June. We saw many interesting places and learned so much about Irish history. Our driver, Tony, was a safe and very capable driver. He was also a great raconteur who kept us both informed and entertained. There were some really great local guides too (Cashel, Londonderry, Trim). The hotels were good: large country houses turned into very comfortable hotels…. they are not castles. Sadly the very first one was a disappointment and failed on a number of levels, but the rest were very nice. The meals were also of good quality. This is quite a full-on tour with not a lot of time to relax, however it packed in many places which, if you tried to do as a self drive in the same time, would be difficult to do. Perhaps some of the stops could have been shorter- we felt that the time allotted for shopping after a visit to eg a tweed shop, crystal maker, chocolate maker, was rather excessive- perhaps catering for some clientele more than others. It meant days were long and resulted in arrivals at our hotels barely giving time to shower and change before the early dinner. These are small points. Nonetheless, we thoroughly enjoyed our trip. All other group members were from US and were a great bunch with whom we spent many enjoyable hours.

Absolutely the best trip of my entire travels abroad life! I had very high expectations and this tour exceeded them. I credit this half to our absolutely delicious tour guide, Philip, and half to the intrinsic beauty of this country and her blessed inhabitants. Everyone we came across, from those in the tourist trade, to the men and women on the street, treated these wayward Americans with kindness and integrity. The accommodations, repasts, conveyances, and tour sites chosen were perfect. We hope to return. Deep gratitude and respect to you all!

Our first time in Ireland and they were great. Everything was as advertised and on schedule. The tour group got along wonderfully and no one held up the group. Hotels and food were good. Our lead driver/guide, John, was great - interesting info, always helpful and accommodating, and didn't talk too much (like some guides). We'd certainly use this company again.

June 2023 • Ancient Ireland Tour
My wife and I took the Ancient Ireland Mini-Group Tour (Ring of Kerry version) in mid June 2023 (a maximum group of 8 people). Mick, our guide, was outstanding. He knew people at every stop; he was hilarious; obviously loves his country; had great stories; knew back road shortcuts to avoid traffic a couple of times; and even made sure we had air conditioning in one hotel due to the heat that day (only some of the hotel rooms had A/C at that hotel). Mick kept us on pace so that we had time at each planned stop. We left our hotel about 30 minutes sooner than planned one day because Mick found out a couple of large tours planned to be at the Jameson Whiskey distillery at our original planned time so we beat them to the distillery!!! And I highly recommend the Jameson, Ginger Ale, and lime drink on the tour. We could not have asked for more from the tour or Mick. The 8 person van was roomy with panoramic windows so every seat had a good view. The hotels at which we stayed were top notch. Our room at the Faithlegg Hotel near Waterford was the nicest room we have ever had on our travels (overlooking the golf course and gardens). We highly recommend My Ireland Tours.

My wife and I really enjoyed our tour of Scotland, Northern Ireland, and the Republic of Ireland. So much history and beautiful scenery. Our tour guide/driver, Paddy, did a superb job driving, explaining all the sights, and giving us insight into the history of Ireland and Scotland. New friends were made with the group of 26 that was on the tour. We highly recommend and appreciate My Ireland Tours.

This was my first tour and my first trip outside the US. My Ireland Tour did an amazing job of introducing Ireland to our small group. Everything was handled efficiently and seamlessly. Our guide was so informative and we loved his stories. He made us all feel comfortable and at ease. I would highly recommend taking a tour with My Ireland Tour.

The tour began with a lot of issues from the airline dealing with the flight / luggage thru no fault of My Ireland Tours. I debated whether or not to continue with plans of tour. It was a mutual decision to continue on with tour. Best decision of my life. The reception upon arrival at hotel was amazing. The group of 26 was like catching up with old friends with updates of their life experiences. The coach driver Harry desires a 10. The items he takes care of behind that scenes with cleaning the coach, stopping the coach for photos of such lovely country, architecture, and historical storytelling. Thank you My Ireland Tours and Harry Fisher. I have memories that will never be forgotten and I hold dear to my heart.!

June 2023 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
We just returned home from a 2 week Iconic Scotland and Ireland tour, expertly guided by Paddy O'Farrell, our driver as well. This tour included the most desired stops in both countries. Paddy led us to some of the most beautiful cities and small towns, always telling us about the history of the countries as we drove along. He was full of stories and jokes to pass the time while we were driving. He played music on the bus when he sensed it was 'nap time' for us! Being on a small tour of only 24 made travelling easier than being with a larger group. All strangers at the outset, our group meshed quite quickly. My Ireland Tour made it so easy to make travel plans - Once booked all arrangements were made for hotels, meals, travel vouchers, and anything else needed for this 2 week tour. At every hotel stop I would like to acknowledge all of the luggage porters who delivered our bags to us in a very timely fashion, and thanks to Paddy for loading the bus at each stop and making sure all luggage was accounted for. We never had to worry about a thing! I highly recommend My Ireland Tour and highly recommend Paddy O'Farrell as a fabulous, careful driver and very knowledgeable guide. FIVE STARS

We have just returned from a great trip to Ireland, which we enjoyed immensely. The countryside, castles, cliffs, castles, etc. were spectacular. Our driver/guide, Sean was great. Very knowledgeable, and with a great sense of humour which makes for a happy trip too. A couple of things we would like to comment on: - a little more time in the towns we stayed overnight would be good. Perhaps leave at 8.30 rather than 9.00. - The Guinness tour was disappointing, as the whole site was far too commercial for our liking. Perhaps a visit to Trinity College would be better. Would we recommend this tour and Company? You bet, highly recommended.

The 14-day tour of Scotland and Ireland was an incredible experience! The booking was easy and Shauni answered so many questions and kept in contact with updates all through the process. Our driver, Harry Fisher, is a wealth of knowledge, a great driver, and he made sure everyone was safe and comfortable. We lucked out with a super fun group which made stops, bus time, and after dinner just a blast! The itinerary for this trip as a perfect mix of castles, churches, landmarks, landscape, experiences (super cool sheep dog demonstration, Kingsbarns Distillery, chocolate making and Guinness Storehouse, etc). Well done My Ireland Tours! As Harry says, 'It's better to be looking at it than looking for it.' Book with My Ireland Tours!

June 2023 • Deluxe Castles Tour
I wish that I could give this tour 10 stars! We just came back two weeks ago from the 10 day Irish Castle Tour. There were six of us travelling together. From the first time I reached Shannon on the phone all the way to the moment we were dropped off at the airport to go home, everything was amazing!! Our tour guide Tom Lavin, was amazing! It was like he was hand-picked for us! He is not only knowledgeable, he was thorough and his driving skills are possibly unmatched!! I don't know how he is able to drive that big bus on the narrow roads in Ireland while explaining to us in full detail everything we were looking at, the history behind it, the year it happened and so on and never miss a beat and never even stopped short!! His humor was so appreciated and his ability to take a joke was refreshing! THANK YOU FOR HELPING MAKE MY 50th BIRTHDAY TOP BUCKET LIST ITEM THE TRIP OF A LIFETIME TOM LAVIN!! YOU ROCK!!!! The Castles that we stayed in were absolutely beautiful! The staff were so accommodating and pleasant everywhere we went. The rooms were beautiful! The grounds were impeccable! My favorite castle was in Donegal, Lough Eske Castle. Their greeting for us was so appreciated. Our room was a master suite like I've never seen before! The staff was so very accommodating and appreciative. The sites that we saw, the beauty in this country was more mesmerizing than I could have imagined. I would HIGHLY recommend My Ireland Tour to anyone that plans to travel to Ireland and wants to see all the beauty and hear all the stories of both the past and present. I also want to thank Roland, our tour guide in Derry. He was also very knowledgeable and very funny! These guys have definitely done their homework in their beautiful country!! A few people here at home asked me what my favorite part about Ireland was and I said 'THE PEOPLE' They were all so friendly and so kind! You know you made a good vacation choice when the people that live there thank you for coming! To all of you that helped make our stay perfect... WE THANK YOU!!!

Book it now! We went on the 10 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. It was wonderful, beautiful and I can't wait to book my next trip. If you've taken other tours you are missing out. Our bus was plenty big for stretch out room and panoramic views. Our Guide Sean O'Sullivan took such good care of us! He took the time to visit with everyone and his commentary and knowledge of history and every location we travelled to was outstanding! I cannot recommend this tour enough. Plenty of time to roam free and explore, lovely hotels and first rate service!

We just returned from the 10 day tour of Ireland. The whole trip exceeded our expectations. The hotels and food were great! Our tour Guide Tony, was so fantastic. He had such a vast amount of knowledge about the beauty of Ireland and the history of places we visited. He did a fantastic job of relaying information to us in a professional yet entertaining way. He even sang us a few Irish songs. He always checked in with everyone at dinner and we were very confident in his abilities. What a truly nice gentleman. I would love to take another tour through this company. Very organized tour and we saw so many amazing things and just had an awesome trip. Don't hesitate in choosing this tour!

If you happen across this review, consider it fate and book My Ireland Tour now! I already did all the research for you. You get more bang for your buck in comparison to other tours. More attractions are included, more meals are included, nicer hotels are included, and more space on the beautiful and clean bus is included. My husband and I went on the Scotland and Ireland tour, and would definitely recommend it. Everyone I have worked with at the company (Shannon and Shauni) was great from start to finish. They answered all my questions in a timely manner, always kept me updated as to what was going on and what next steps to expect, and genuinely were just kind and professional. As for the tour itself, we had Paddy as our driver, and he was amazing! He was funny and engaging, and truly loves his Country and sharing all his knowledge with you. He's passionate and we had a great time with him. His Irish pride is infectious, so much so our whole bus clapped and cheered when he announced that we crossed into the Republic of Ireland. He even arranged a couple 'off intinerary' things that was a pleasent and unexpected surprise. He genuinely wants the best of the best for his group, and achieves it! Speaking of the group, we got really lucky to have a bunch of great people! Everyone was super nice and friendly the whole time, and best of all everyone was extremely punctual. We left on time (or early) every single time. Not one lollygagger in the group. We had a great time with everyone and even exchanged numbers with a few to keep in touch, and started a shared photo album so we could all share pics! Very sweet added touch - my husband and I were honeymooning and My Ireland Tour went above and beyond to work with the hotels to have little extras in each of our rooms, which was amazingly kind and sweet. It was like having 8 honeymoons rolled into one epic fortnight. Thank you, My Ireland Tour!!

This was my first guided tour as I prefer to travel solo. I decided to take this tour as I just wanted to relax and not have to take on driving on the opposite side of the road. I'm glad I did because I was able to experience much more in 10 days than I would have on my own. Carthal was the guide. He is kind and his educational degree in Irish history made this trip so much more than I had hoped for. His patience for people was outstanding. Even when at times his patience was tested when a select few would not make it back to the bus at the times clearly stated numerous times. Following the ending of the tour I traveled to Malahide where I spent a few nights and had a ticket to a concert at Malahide Castle.

My Ireland Tours was the perfect way to help my mom accomplish one of her life dreams of visiting Ireland. Our group size was just right with 26 total people. The coach had 50 seats so we were able to sit comfortably. We saw other companies with people wearing numbers and packed on coaches. Our 5 day tour covered just the right amount of traditional cities and sights for the first time visitor to Ireland. Dublin, Guinness, EPIC museum, Galway, the Cliffs of Moher, Limerick, the Ring of Kerry, Killarney, Castle Blarney, and Jameson Distillery to name a few. Ireland is very tourism friendly. Our tour guide and coach driver, Garey, made the tour extra special. His love for Ireland was evident: he was knowledgeable, friendly, professional, helpful, organized, patient, and always had a funny story. Plus - wow can he drive a large coach on tiny roads! Helpful tips - 1. If you're jumping ahead a few time zones I highly recommend arriving a day early. Not falling asleep on the first day of the official tour is worth the extra money. 2. Plan ahead for your free time in Dublin, there's so much to do and see. Rent bikes, tour Trinity College, go on a nighttime ghost tour etc. It's fairly easy to get around in the city. 3.There are at least six separate Clayton Hotels with slightly different accommodations so check ahead. Example: Burlington Road had a small fridge in the rooms and Limerick had a pool. The Clayton Hotel Burlington Road was very helpful. We arrived a day early, on our own, and they made sure we could stay in the same rooms for the tour dates. Staff was extremely professional; I left my expensive headphones behind and they not only contacted me to let me know, they offered to have them shipped back to my home address. My mom is truly happy she was able to visit and enjoy Ireland without any travel stress. We highly recommend using My Ireland Tours.

We were in Ireland for a small family reunion and then extended tour of Southern Ireland. The itinerary was bespoke and spectacular! It was everything I was hoping for and everyone loved the tour. I highly recommend MyIrelandTour, especially if you are looking for something special and custom.

I have just come home from the 10 day iconic tour or Ireland and honestly can say I didn't want it to end. It has always been a dream to do this and I'm so glad i chose to with My Ireland Tours. They were amazing with communication right from the start and always prompt to reply to any queries i had or just reassurances when i said i was travelling alone. The tour went above and beyond any expectation i had, really well thought out and organised. My experience was completely elevated by our Tour guide Sean O'Sullivan, he was funny and kind and genuinely had our best interests at heart. Sean's knowledge was incredible and he answered any questions we had and gave huge insight into history but also daily life in Ireland, he was personable and joined in with all our banter. Sean really is a credit to the company and I would highly recommend My Ireland Tours to everyone. Thank you so much. Ruby x

My husband and I had an amazing time on our 14-day Iconic Tour of Ireland and Northern Ireland in May 2023. Our tour guide, Cathal Clark, was everything you could ask for in a guide. His extensive knowledge of history and the landscape and his great sense of humor made the time between destinations very enjoyable. We had hesitations about taking a trip with 22 other people but they were unwarranted. Our travel mates were interesting and extremely friendly so our journey was always full of laughter. Cathal should also be commended on his patience and kindness. It can't be easy to travel with a group of people of all ages and from different areas for two weeks. It was great not to have to worry about driving, our baggage, or tickets to sights. It was all so seamless. Also the hotels were very comfortable and the food was great. I'd definitely recommend this trip to anyone who wanted to learn about this beautiful island. Who knew there were so many colors of green! And so many sheep!

We were a group of four that took the castle tour in a private van with our own driver, Ger Murphy. We had a wonderful time and appreciated Ger's skill and empathy in customizing our trip to meet our personal needs in terms of length of each tour day, amount of walking, and destinations to visit. The castle accommodations varied a bit in quality; but overall, we were comfortable and well cared for. The booking process was easy, and our questions were promptly answered by email. We would definitely book again with My Ireland Tour.

This is an excellent Tour, from the booking staff to the Driver/Guide, the organisation was impeccable. Harry, the Driver/Guide was so patient with us, ensured we were at the right place at the right time and if things didn't go according to plan, he was calm, adapted and on we went. The Hotels were good. some were absolutely fantastic for a small group bus tour. Harry kept us amused with anecdotes and informed with a never ending range of facts and histories. We met a group of lovely people and made wonderful friends. Can not recommend the Tour more highly.

Just completed the 14 Day Scotland & Ireland Tour with my wife. 5 star, absolutely fantastic trip. Our Tour Guid, Harry Fisher was outstanding! He is very detailed and ensured nothing was left unattended. Harry is an excellent driver and provided all the history and facts that added to the trip experience. My Irelands tour is the best, better than expected for our first tour. Smaller 26 person group was perfect. The entire group came together, became friends and hung out. Enthusiastically recommended.

Booked with My Ireland Tour, and from the start communication was great. We did the Castle tour, and it was FABULOUS. We were able to see so many sights and places, while still having some free time to explore. Our tour guide, Brian, absolutely made the trip. He was fantastic, and gave us amazing history (and jokes) throughout the whole journey. We cannot say enough good things about this tour, and cannot wait to go back!! Thanks Tony!

I took the 6 Day Iconic Scenes Tour, and it was perfect in every way! The hotels were wonderful and well located for individual sightseeing time, and the itinerary gave a beautiful overview of this lovely country. Liam was an exceptional tour guide. His broad sweep and depth of knowledge of seemingly every aspect of Irish history and culture assured that we came away with new understandings and appreciation of Ireland and its people. My father's people are all from County Cork, so traveling to Ireland was a lifelong dream of mine. I am so grateful for such an outstanding experience! Thanks Tony!

We were on the 10 day Iconic tour of Ireland May 29 to June 7 2023 and the trip was fantastic! Tony - our driver and tour guide was very informative and professional as well as friendly and treated us all as if we were family. Great trip, only 24 people on the large tour bus was great with room to spread out. Multiple guided tours at many of the sites prearranged, very nice hotel accommodations and food. I highly recommend My Ireland Tours! 5 Stars! Thanks Tony!
Kara Newcomb
June 2023 • 6 Day Iconic Scenes
I did the 6 day Highlights of Ireland Tour and had a great time. Liam our tour guide was awesome and very knowledgeable. He was also quite funny. The only reason I gave them 4 stars instead of 5 is because there were a few small things I would have done differently or added. For example I have been on tours where they provided a bottle of water each day just as an added touch. Also, the first day there was a little confusion and we didn't get very clear instructions on following Liam to some of the sites we visited, but when day two kicked things were a bit more organized. I will definitely use this company again when I return to Ireland. I also want to mention that Liam went out of his way to drop those of us who were returning to Dublin at various locations on the last day of the tour. He could have easily just dropped us in a central location but he tried to get us as close to where we needed to be as possible.

June 2023 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
My parents, husband and I took the 10-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour with Tony, and I HIGHLY recommend it. The best part of this tour was our tour guide/driver Tony. He shared his extensive knowledge of Irish history, culture and fun facts while singing a song or two! He set the scene for every place we visited so we understood the history and significance before walking in. He showed great care in making sure we knew the itinerary each day, where to meet up with him and was always offering suggestions of pubs, restaurants, and points of interest. With only 26 people per tour group (we actually had 24) the bus never felt crowded, and we were able to spread out. If you are short on time, I would suggest this tour as we hit about every major site in Ireland. We also got to stop along the way to take some scenic photos. Booking with My Ireland Tours was easy, and Shannon was very responsive. We had a fantastic trip!
Christine Kelley
June 2023 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
We went on the 14 day Iconic tour. Ben Sullivan was our tour guide and really made the trip. He is knowledgeable, hilarious and a great singer! Can't imagine being able to rally 26 people for 2 weeks, but he did it seamlessly. All the sites, towns, cities were amazing too Great experience and would highly recommend.
Cheryl Paster-dipilla
June 2023 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
We cannot say enough great things about My Ireland Tour. From beginning to end, the booking, getting information, and even touring was so easy. Shannon was quick to respond to any and all questions. Our 10 day Iconic Tour was fabulous and so smoothly run. Our guide/driver, Tony McGoey was amazing; informative on our tour stops and all things Ireland, humorous, kind, and helpful. He displayed a great singing voice while regaling us with some Irish tunes! Our schedules were pretty packed, and we could never have seen all that we did had we arranged to do it ourselves. All of our stops were organized and we never waited in line to see anything. We never felt rushed through an attraction. We'd use My Ireland Tour again and would wholeheartedly recommend it to others.

We just came back from the deluxe castle tour and can share this was one of the best vacations we have had! Accommodations were beautiful.

The 14 Day Iconic Tour of Ireland in May 2023 was GREAT! Our tour guide, Cathal, was fantastic. He was informative, responsive, funny and kept a great atmosphere while traveling around Ireland and Northern Ireland. Everything you could want in a tour guide! He went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable in Ireland. His extensive knowledge of local history was great. The itinerary and stops were well spaced and well planned. Highly recommend!

My daughters booked this tour as a birthday gift to me as Ireland has always been my dream trip. Our driver and guide Liam Finnegan was fantastic, his knowledge of Ireland's history, culture, etc along with a few humorous stories was wonderful. We were also honored with a couple of Irish ballads by Liam after a day of touring. He went above and beyond making sure we were comfortable and plenty of breaks along the way as well as plenty of photo opportunities my favorite part was the ring of Kerry and the beautiful scenery. I would recommend this tour 100percent. Thank you Liam and my Ireland tours for fulfilling my dream trip, it was magical.

We to the My Ireland Tour May 29 through June 7, 2023. It was excellent and by far the best vacation we have ever taken. It was an action packed trip with new highlights every day. Our driver, Tony McGoey, was fantastic. He had a great grasp of history, great singer and an awesome tour guide. Every attraction we went to our tickets were available and we entered without waiting in line. Hotel check in was seamless with room keys handed out as soon as we were off the bus. Dinners and breakfast were very good and substantial. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tour. Great group.

Took the iconic scenes of Ireland tour in May 2023. It was amazing. Coach was comfortable with plenty of extra space to spread out. Every day was filled with beautiful scenery and interesting things to see and do. Our driver/guide, Colm Clarke, was fantastic - funny, knowledgeable, helpful, kind - could not ask for better. Just before setting out on our tour, we had a last minute request for walk in showers, and Shannon in the office fixed us up at every stop. Shannon was very helpful with every contact we had with her as we planned our trip. Highly recommend My Ireland Tours!

Our experience with My Ireland Tour was fantastic. From the when I booked the tour to the week before it started Shannon was a great communicator on what to expect and our transfer information. On the tour itself Liam went above and beyond and provided us all with the rich history of Ireland, entertaining stories and local traditions information. We had perfect weather which was a definite plus! Our family came back to the US with loads of happy memories and some fabulous photos. We absolutely feel in love with Ireland. Thank you to Liam and Shannon for all that you did to make sure our tour was grand!!

It was so simple to book with My Ireland Tour. The communication was first class and the organisation, hotels and itinerary exceptional. Our driver/guide Don was patient, extremely knowledgeable and had a great sense of humour. How he navigated the big bus down the narrow lanes was first class. He kept us safe and could not do enough for us. I have no hesitation in recommending My Ireland Tour.

After eloping in Ireland, my husband and I, and our 2 kids took a 5 day tour with a private driver. It was an amazing honeymoon/family vacation. Catriona planned the perfect itinerary that kept both adults and kids engaged, happy, and excited. Our driver, Ray, was friendly and helpful with great knowledge of everywhere we went.
Kira Kovi
June 2023 • Deluxe Castles Tour
This company is absolutely fantastic! From booking, needing to reschedule due to COVID, travel and everything in-between they made this process smooth and easy. The food was wonderful, the sights you get to see are beautiful and everything is taken care of for you regarding admission etc. I did the 10 day luxury tour of castles with my fiance and it was money well spent! Our group of 14 was so wonderful and our driver Colm was friendly, personable, knowledgeable, and flexible when it came to certain things in the tour! The only reason it got 4* was I felt certain sites we didn't get enough time to stay at and explore, sometimes only an hour which seems like a lot but it flies by when you're sight seeing. And you're on the bus a lot, however that's understandable with the sheer amount of land they need to cover each day to show you what Ireland has to offer. They break up the time on the bus with breaks VERY well, and stop with some amazing sights on the side of the road. All and all the quality for money was astounding and I'd recommend this company to everyone!!

June 2023 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
Took the Iconic 14 day Scotland/Ireland tour in May with with our personal leprechaun Paddy O'Farrell who was our guide and driver. What a fantastic whirlwind of activity! With only 26 folks on the motorcoach, we had plenty of room to spread out since each day included hours of traveling and sightseeing but Paddy maneuvered that huge bus like a warm knife through butter since many of the ancient picturesque and winding roads we traveled were surely not meant for large vehicles or even two lanes!! Paddy alerted us with tidbits of interesting information before encountering sites along the road but he was also a font of historical knowledge, folklore, regional information, stories, suggestions for our free time and all of it interspersed with respect and humor! The itinerary was marvelous but the scenery was out of this world - tiny towns, sheep, majestic ocean/sea views, sheep, castles, abbeys, antiquated ruins, local talent and more sheep. Some hotels were within city limits, allowing us to wander and others were tucked away in wonderlands of beauty but the highlight was spending one night in a castle guarded by a dragon! The culture, the food, the beverages and the people of Scotland and Ireland have made this a trip of a lifetime for us and we will sing the praises of My Ireland Tour forever. Thank you!

We have just returned from a perfect trip with My Ireland Tour. From the start they were so easy to work with and create our perfect week in Ireland. Kristel was outstanding in planning and coordinating. She understood what we wanted and every stop seemed to be better than the last. Our guide, Liam was perhaps the highlight of the trip. He gave us history, culture and wonderful side stories and we will be quoting him around the dinner table for years to come. I can't possibly imagine the trip being any better and would recommend My Ireland Tour to any and all!

My wife and I, along with a couple of friends, took a 2 week My Ireland Tour May 5-19, 2023 and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it! Our tour guide, Don, was very professional and knowledgeable, and had a great sense of humor! He ensured we stayed safe and took his job very seriously. He made sure we made it to our designated tours on time and also gave us many suggestions on places to see or places to eat when we were designated to be on our own, which was very helpful. He was also a wealth of information with regards to local history, landmarks, folklore, culture and the current laws/government/taxes/real-estate, etc. All in all, this tour was definitely the way to see Ireland, both North and South! We would highly recommend My Ireland Tour Ltd!

We were able to see amazing sites and Harry added fun stories and information into each stop. The itinerary was just the right amount of time in each area. The bus and drives were very comfortable.

June 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
I had the pleasure of enjoying (with a family group of 26) your 10 day coach tour of Ireland with Sean O'Sullivan as our driver. This tour surpassed my expectations tenfold! We stayed in luxurious hotels, had excellent full breakfasts included as well as other delicious meals. We saw both Northern and Southern parts of Ireland which included all the Irish highlights and monuments, places and much history. Thanks to the exceptional knowledge of our tour driver Sean and his enthusiasm for his work and his country I left with a much better understanding of Irish culture, and its history and people. This was my first coach tour and I must say it blew me away. I felt that I saw the best of Ireland with little effort on my part as everything was taken care of by the company, and would definitely consider another tour with this company. If you're thinking about booking a tour , Don't hesitate, you won't be disappointed !!

Historic Irish Castle Tour, 6 days. Absolutely wonderful tour. Exceeded our expectations on every level. Brian, our tour guide/driver was exceptional and I could not ask for a more knowledgeable, fun guide. Each of the hotels/castles we stayed in had their own unique character and provided a once in a lifetime experience. The meals were great and also exceeded my expectations. Ever aspect our or tour went off like clockwork. I highly recommend My Ireland Tour and will use them again if I go back to Ireland.

Sondra Gordon
June 2023 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
The adventure of the Scotland-Ireland 14 day tour, a group of 26, who became 'family', under the watchful and loving care of our amazing guide-driver, Paddy O'Farrell, was a daily joy of discovery, learning, experiencing and enjoying! As we wended our way from Edinburgh, Scotland, to Northern Ireland and then to the Republic of Ireland, there was ongoing history and information communicated by Paddy, with amazing knowledge and insight, making the period of 500 A.D. to the present meaningful by interjecting literary references, politics, and his personal reflections. His love of history and his desire to make sure that we shared his respect and regard for these countries was constant. Our hotels were 4 star, except for Lough Eske Castle, which defied the star categorization by setting its own standard. It was as if we had arrived at 'Downton Abbey', with accommodations fit for Kings and Queens, and a dinner service to match! Since all of the other hotels were chosen to be 'in town', and central, and, unlike most tours, we were able to spend more than just one night in one location. This allowed for a more restful period while never missing any sightseeing destinations. It was one of the reasons I chose to travel with My Ireland Tours. I was not disappointed! And whenever there was something special in an area, a Celtic show, a special photo view, or being at the right place, at the right time, Paddy made sure 'we were there'. He was the 'sheep dog' making sure that his flock were safe, rescuing the occasional strays with good humor and caring. While we toured, or before leaving in the morning, Paddy made sure that the bus was cleaned and windows sparkling, so we could enjoy the magnificent views. He had a personal greeting and conversation for each of us. His close attention to our special need person's requirements was always primary, warm and admirable. 500 photos later, it was time to say farewell to fellow travelers, especially difficult was finding the words to adequately express the admiration and appreciation of our unique, Paddy. I know that everyone thinks that they have had the best tour director, but, we really did!!! Thank you Paddy!

Our Tour Guide, Tom, took excellent care of our group. Our coach was comfortable, clean, and very nice. We took the Deluxe Castle Tour. Never a dull moment. The group was small (26 people), giving us time to get to know everyone in our group. Tom was very entertaining with lots of history and current knowledge of Ireland. Our Castle hotels were wonderful and the food was great. The day trips were well planned, interesting and beautiful. I would travel with My Ireland again in a heartbeat.

June 2023 • Custom / Private Tour
Our family just returned from a private tour with My Ireland Tours, and it was perfect in every way imaginable. From the booking process, accommodations, inclusive entry fees, to the places not otherwise on our list, and we were able to see only because of our wonderful driver. Sky Road, Dingle, Sean's Bar, and the beaches were probably my favorite stops, but every minute of our trip was truly incredible. Our driver/guide, Charlie Rutherford, is one of a kind. Witty, charming, and so knowledgeable about all things Ireland. Culture, sports, pubs, music, history, current events, you name it. So patient with my sometimes grumpy and tired 10 year old, and never tired of pointing out sheep and school houses for her. Helpful with my 71 year old Mom who can't get around as easily as she used to. My husband and I were able to relax and enjoy a stress-free vacation. The cherry on top was how friendly and welcoming the locals were. Such a wonderful country. I shed a few tears going into the airport because I truly did not want to go home. The trip of a lifetime! We miss you Charlie! You're stuck on our Christmas card list now :)

Amazing and very well organized 10 day tour of Ireland and it was the best way to see Ireland. Our driver, Don O'Donoghue, was great! He was very informative, funny, and always made sure everyone was okay and having a good time. He kept us on track without making us feel rushed. Having dinner included everynight is good for some, but it was basically the same meals over and over. We actually ate out on our own more often than not as we wanted to explore the food/culture of each of the cities. I would definitely recommend My Ireland Tour!

My husband, George, and I, had a fantastic experience on the Iconic Scotland and Ireland tour. Everything was so well organized. The hotels were clean and comfortable, the staff gracious and friendly. Our driver, Paddy O'Farrell, was extremely knowledgeable about the history of Scotland and Ireland. I was so impressed by the amount of historical knowledge he shared with us, our cup was overflowing with stories, facts and details that until then were unknown to us. George and I are so grateful we had the opportunity to participate in this adventure...to make new friends, appreciate the struggle and beauty of both countries and to leave with a deeper understanding of the those who went before.

June 2023 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
We had an incredible time on the 14-day iconic tour of Ireland and Northern Ireland. We have incorporated some of our tour guide's witty one-liners into our everyday conversations back in Canada. Cathal Clarke was so incredibly informative and knowledgeable regarding the rich history of Ireland and its people. His humour and willingness to always go the extra mile is a credit to this tour operator. We learned a lot and saw so many beautiful things. (With the exception of the Cliffs of Moher. Who knew fog could be that thick? We're still debating whether there are actually cliffs there). The food on this tour could get a bit repetitive for some at times but other than that, we would do it all again in a heartbeat. We highly, highly recommend this tour. Thank you so much for the wonderful memories. When someone asks us how it went, we start it off in Cathal's voice, 'Well...'

June 2023 • Custom / Private Tour
We spent two fantastic weeks in Ireland on a private My Ireland Tour. Can't say enough about how wonderful the experience was. We began the tour in Dublin and then traveled to Belfast, Londonderry, Lough Eske, Galway City, Killarney, and Kinsale before returning to Dublin at the conclusion of our 12-day tour. We enjoyed the local culture and food in each city, stayed in wonderful luxury accommodations, and also had the opportunity to walk about on our own at each location. Our driver / guide, Patrick (Paxo) O'Sullivan was welcoming, knowledgeable, patient, and informative. Patrick was open to all our questions about the history of Ireland, and (when asked) the political, economic and religious issues which shaped Ireland over the years. Parting with Patrick at the end of the tour was “sweet sorrow'. We also had local guide-experts in Belfast, Londonderry ('Gerry from Derry' was exceptional), and Dublin. We had the flexibility of working with Kristel to tailor the tour to our specific preferences. For instance, we were able to include a guided tour at Bru na Boinne, an ancient burial site, and an evening of dinner and music at the Merry Ploughboys Pub. Both were excellent additions, and we appreciate Kristel's expertise and patience working with us. We had plenty of opportunity to see the many natural wonders, castles, distilleries, churches, and historic sites of Ireland. It was a very good mix of planned and unplanned time such that we never felt rushed and had time to relax and wander each day. We highly recommend My Ireland Tours as a premiere way to visit and learn about Ireland.

We completed the Ancient Ireland 6 day tour (Dingle version) and loved it! David, our guide and bus driver, was knowledgeable, had a great sense of humor, and was very efficient in getting us to where we needed to be. Our accommodations were wonderful and conveniently located for free time exploration of the area. Being a small group, we never felt like an entourage descending on a site. While we know that there is so much more to see in Ireland, we feel as if we had a great introduction to this beautiful country. We would definitely recommend My Ireland Tour!

This was a tour of a life time. Our driver/guide, Sean O'Sullivan was the absolute best. He was very knowledgeable, Funny and also very attentive to our needs. We had a very complete tour but never felt rushed. Ireland is a beautiful country. We were very fortunate to have a driver with such passion for his country. This was our first time on an organized tour, not sure that the next one will be able to live up to this one. Cheers!

I just got home yesterday from the My Ireland - Historic Irish Castle Tour. It was definitely worth it. I had never been on a guided tour before so I was hesitant to book it, but I am glad I did. Overall it was worth doing and exactly as described. Good food, free continental or cooked breakfasts every morning and full 3 course meals for dinner every night with a mixed authentic farm house lunch included one of the days on our trip. The castle hotels we stayed at were a good experience, just don't expect 5 star hotel accommodations, after all they are older converted castles. Think more large scale bed and breakfast. The RIU Greshum hotel we stayed at on our tour the first and last night was nice and centrally located in the heart of Dublin which was nice to experience a little of Dublin and local shops and bars. You are riding a tour bus accross Ireland so there is a lot of time on the bus, but Brian, who was our driver stopped plenty of times for breaks and they did space out tour well enough so that you were not on the bus for too long at a time. Some of the stops may have needed a little more time, but I am sure others felt they were too long so I can't be picky about such things. That was just my personal taste. There were also some things I would have changed, but the tour was exactly as described and they can't custom cater to 26 people's needs. Overall I think everyone on our tour bus seemed to enjoy the experience. Brian (the driver) was knowledgeable of Irish history and kept us entertained with stories and jokes during the drives. He also was able to answer any questions we had. I traveled with my 19 year old son and we both enjoyed ourselves. He thanked me for taking him once we got home.

Our recent tour of Ireland via My Ireland Tour was an extremely gratifying experience with an itinerary that reflected the gist of life in Ireland & its history. Our driver/guide, Sean O'Sullivan, is very professional, compassionate, efficient, passionate of his homeland & well versed in the past & present history of Ireland. Accommodation & dining (where included) was excellent & well organized. These types of tours are designed to give one a grasp of what the country is all about with a good foundation for future travel. My Ireland Tour & Sean O'Sullivan delivered in spades. We look forward to a return to Ireland thanks to them.

Our 10 day bus tour of Ireland more than met any expectations that I had. Our guide/driver Sean O Sullivan was professional, knowledgeable and made an effort so that each once of us got something unique from the experience. Not only did he know our names, he made sure he understood the connections between our group of 26! Seans knowledge of history and culture - both past and present was astonishing. I felt safe and well cared for and can't thank him and My Ireland tours enough for that lovely introduction to beautiful Ireland. I highly recommend 'My Ireland tours'

June 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
An amazing trip. Sean O'Sullivan was our driver/tour guide and would highly recommend him. He brought us to areas not on our itinerary for the true feel of the soil. His knowledge of the history of the Island was very impressive. He has a wit, charm and personality that can only make one feel at home, which we (26 of us) did. He kept an extremely clean coach and did a great job on herding the cats to stay on schedule to see what was on the itinerary and then some! Thank you Sean for an awesome family 2023 vacation.

I recently completed a tour of Ireland with a group of 26 people with My Ireland Tours. Our driver/guide, Sean O'Sullivan, was the best! His cheery personality, wit and knowledge of all things Irish made our 10 day tour superb! He was extremely organized and efficient yet relaxed and flexible which helped in trying to organize 26 people on a daily basis with all our luggage and paraphernalia. Sean is an excellent driver and guide. His love of Ireland, the country, the culture, legends and folklore were part of his daily driving/guiding routine. I developed a better sense and appreciation for Ireland myself through Sean' Irish spirit. If you are lucky enough to have Sean O'ullivan as your driver/guide then you'e found the Pot O'Gold!

Just returned from a 10-day tour with Sean O'Sullivan as our coach driver. Sean was a superstar--capable, confident, and patient when driving; informative and entertaining when touring us around; and an excellent listener, attentive to details. And he was just plain fun. Even when we encountered glitches, like unexpected traffic or road conditions, Sean remained calm, cool, and collected, and got us through them with a smile. I'd recommend this tour group without hesitation.
Tim Partridge
June 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
A trip of a lifetime. Our driver Sean had us all in stitches multiple times. The bus was clean and comfortable and the windows were spotless. His knowledge of Irish history and of the monuments and areas we visited was downright impressive and enriched the experience greatly. We were even treated to some mythological Irish audio stories and Irish music on the bus. Spots that we didn't visit were pointed out as we were driving so I have a list of sites to see for my next trip. If you have the chance to take a tour you won't regret a minute of it! 10/10 would do it again.

If you are wanting to go to Ireland and have the best time of your life, please use My Ireland Tour. Our tour guide, Noel, was outstanding. He pretty much became a part of our family by the end of the trip. Thanks to Catriona for making our trip easy to just sit back and enjoy.

June 2023 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
When my daughter, Shawna and I decided to visit Ireland, we researched for several days and finally decided to book the 10-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour with My Ireland Tour Company. This itinerary was the most complete with its natural sites such as the stunning Wild Atlantic Way, Cliffs of Moher, and Ring of Kerry, ancient castles, charming historic towns, and because it included Killarney and Cork. The tour itself exceeded our expectations as the hotels and meals were lovely, the people we met were friendly and welcoming, and the sights brought me to tears. What made this tour exceptional was one of Ireland's national treasures, Eamonn Broderick, our guide and driver. Not only did Eamonn bring Ireland to life for us with his knowledge of the cities and areas along our path, but he charmed us with stories about growing up in Ireland, serenaded us with lovely Irish songs, shared information about Ireland's history, people, politics, and economy, and kept us laughing with his delightful sense of humor. Eamonn's kindness, thoughtfulness, optimistic spirit, and attention to even the smallest detail coupled with his charming personality and obvious love of Ireland endeared him to us all. Not only were his driving and parking skills exceptional, but Eamonn took care of us as a loving father would his children with reminders to remove our carry-ons at the end of each day, frequent schedule updates for meeting and mealtimes, suggestions for good restaurants or shops in the areas we visited, and by somehow managing to park his tour bus in plain sight and making himself available for questions so we never got lost. Eamonn often joined us for a drink, laughter, and stories before dinner and sometimes provided food recommendations. Never have I felt so well cared for and confess to missing his steady presence for several days after we left the tour! I would highly recommend this tour, and suggest you request Eamonn Broderick for your tour guide to insure a memorable visit to Ireland.

My family and I had a wonderful time on the 6 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. Our guide and driver was Ben Sullivan and he made it spectacular! He was so generous, kind, and of course entertaining! We had beautiful weather and saw SO much in 6 days! We would have liked to spend less time on the bus and more at some of the sites, but that is to be expected with a short tour and lots of stops. Overall we were very pleased and would do it again!

Was on the '14-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour'. This was my first tour company and trip it was great. Early on, we had to change our driver/guide from Pat to John. This specific tour was really wonderful. Everything we did was well planned in advance. Each day was filled with wonderful experiences and great places for us to visit. Both of our drivers/guides and guest guides were all very professional and yet also very personable, very funny guides. When I got sick on the tour, John was there to help out as while as my fellow group members.

I would recommend My Ireland Tour for your next trip to Ireland. George, our driver/tour guide was wonderful and gave us the Ireland history while we travelled from Dublin to Kilkenny and Galway. We stayed in beautiful castles and the food was very good! I traveled solo and not once did I feel alone. Everyone was lovely. I would definitely go on another tour with them in a heartbeat!

What an amazing experience!! I highly recommend My Ireland Tours. Shauni was very accommodating and helpful throughout all of our planning. Six of us had a private tour with Brian Treanor who was a joy to have as our tour guide and driver. He gave us detailed information on the places we visited and drove through, told very charming stories and kept us quite entertained with his sense of humor. We experienced the Ancient Ireland tour which provided a rich and diverse experience of Ireland. One of my favorite places to stay was Hanora's Cottage, which was located in a pristine location with a peaceful and beautiful landscape and the most AMAZING food you will ever indulge in! This was the trip of a lifetime!

My wife & I recently returned from the 14-day Iconic Scenes Tour. According to the locals we we're extremely lucky weather-wise as it only rained 1 afternoon. Our driver & guide Don O'Donoghue did an amazing job navigating a 63' long bus down what at times weren't much more than goat tracks. The rest of the travellers were all punctual & polite which made for an excellent trip.

Six friends went on the small group tour with My Ireland Tour. We couldn't have been happier. Everything about it was absolutely perfect; from the correspondence with Shauni at My Ireland Tour, to the itinerary she planned for us, to the tour guide that we had. Bryan, our driver and guide was funny, smart and knowledgeable. I highly recommend My Ireland Tour!
Sue Stano
May 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
Just returned from the 17 day Iconic Scotland/Ireland tour with My Ireland Tours. Wonderful, fantastic, superb and absolutely fun are just some of the adjectives I could use to describe this tour. First and foremost, our driver/guide Pat Prendergast was A+++ Couldn't have asked for a better guide! He was friendly, caring, helpful, knowledgeable, and amusing. And boy could he handle that bus-his driving skills are magnificent! This trip had a lot of senior citizens (including me) and a few people who had health or mobility issues. Pat was always accommodating and watched out for us always. The hotels were lovely; the meals were delicious. The company was very easy to deal with and very responsive to any queries. The group was small (24) but the bus was full size so many of us could have seats to ourselves if we do desired. 17 days in a bus with mostly strangers can be a bit unpredictable but I can honestly say I loved every minute of it and enjoyed meeting folks from many areas of the US. I would highly recommend this tour company!!

Gregory Engel
May 2023 • Deluxe Castles Tour
My wife and I would rate the My Ireland Tour 10-day Deluxe Castle Tour a 5-star tour from booking to departure. Communications from owner Eric during booking and pre-planning were always prompt and thorough. Our driver/guide Tom was always pleasant, helpful, responsive, passionate, funny and knowledgeable while keeping the tour group safe, on time and engaged from the time he picked us up at the airport to our last early morning getting dropped off. He shared many stories with us as well as some famous Irish Crisps and Seaweed snacks. Many of the group continued purchasing Irish Crisps, none were seen purchasing the Seaweed. The castle/hotel rooms were luxurious, clean and comfortable with all the amenities you'd expect. Views from our rooms at 3 of the 5 hotels were average at best while 2 of the 5 were spectacular. This was expected with tour groups and didn't matter as we spent little time in our rooms. The castle/hotel meals were excellent. We had plenty of time for the full Irish breakfast experience each morning with continental buffets or ordering hot items off menus. The dinners were all high quality Prix Fix menus with several options for starters, main course and dessert. Depending on the hotel, they can last from 1.5-2.5 hours and while most dressed casual, a sport coat and dress would also be appropriate. The Pullman Restaurant at The Glen Abbey was a special highlight that should not be missed. We will say that after so many of these meals, the group was getting restless and decided to cancel the group dinner and head into Kerry for Pizza/Beer/Wine. There were also several opportunities for a quick pub lunch and a Guinness during our tour. You will come away gaining about 10 lbs! WiFi was readily available on the bus, in hotels, at most tour sites, shops and restaurants. Charging electronics was easy with USB ports on the bus and hotel rooms. This was a jam packed tour with many outstanding historical and geographic sites and we would not change a thing. We will definitely consider My Ireland Tours for future family vacations.

We took the Ancient Island Tour (Ring of Kerry) tour with a small group of 6 people with Dave Darby as our tour guide and had a great experience. The group was small enough so that we could all have a conversation together making the longer travel times much more enjoyable. The accommodations were far nicer than what I had envisioned and the meals were fantastic. The pace of the tour was perfect as it allowed plenty of time at each stop to explore without feely rushed. Dave was very good about pointing out little things that would probably been missed and was fun and conversational without dominating the time by speaking all of the time. I would highly recommend this tour to friends.
Thomas Huey

What a delight to spend 10 days touring Ireland with Eammon, the ultimate guide! Never at a loss whether explaining history, pointing out every excellent pub option along the route, flawlessly squeezing our bus into unimaginably impossible spots and making us laugh the whole way. We joined the tour with a group of friends and made new ones along the way. Just a wonderful experience from start to finish. While driving us back to the airport, Eammon shared one of his witty quips to send us on our travels home. 'As the Bishop said to the Nun, let's get the flock out of here.' Can't wait to return.

Highly recommend!

Just finished the 10 day luxury Irish castle tour and it was fabulous! A great way to really experience the Emerald Isle and to interact with such kind and friendly residents. Tom our driver and guide, was professional, thorough in ever aspect, knowledgeable, and added just the right amount of humor to make our tour fun, educational and full of wonderful memories . The hotels were outstanding, the food fabulous and the bus clean and comfortable. I would definitely recommend this tour for anyone wanting to experience the beauty and history or Ireland.
Julie Rinehart
May 2023 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
I was on the 10 day Iconic Scenes tour. I am a seasoned traveler and have been on many international tours with well known large and independent small companies. A large group of friends traveled together on this trip. The execution of itinerary, location of hotels, and overall tour experience fell short of my expectations and standards of other tour companies. Things done well include driver skill in maneuvering bus, cleanliness of bus, comfortable hotels, evening show quality, and selection of scenic routes. The stops were at memorable iconic sites that were well chosen. Several hotels (5 nights) were located outside of walking distance to tourist areas, restaurants, and entertainment. A taxi was necessary to reach anything outside of the hotel offering. Our group frequently skipped the included hotel dinner to travel independently into town as it was the only way to see the tourist center. The hotel on Day 1 is located in a small town with little to do. Pubs and restaurants not open until evening. There were no optional excursions, drop off to Dublin or optional evening entertainment. The tour director is also your bus driver. You may pass an interesting roadside site without mention as your guide is driving. The restroom on the bus is not available for use if the coach is moving. You must ask to stop the bus and have it unlocked. The bus stopped 2 times during the entire trip for photos at scenic points. The majority of photos must be taken through the bus window at full speed. We had no opportunity to step out of the bus and photograph something as iconic as a pasture with sheep. The professional guided tour at several sites was skipped in favor of our driver giving us a quick overview. The tour of the farm with home made lunch on the itinerary was skipped and generic lunch substituted. The days start at 9 am and are rushed with no time for a spontaneous stop at something like a farmers market you are passing, quick stop for a sample of local food, etc. The standard with other tour companies I've been with has allowed the guide to provide us with food tastings (fruit, veggies, cheese, treats), or other local lifestyle interactions. The only optional tour we had was to see a sheep herding demonstration, which was delightful. Our group was in constant communication with the tour director on concerns and giving feedback from the first day. If a traveler is satisfied with a basic surface overview tour, riding a coach to experience countryside, an overview of main tourist attractions, minimal pictures, and comfortable hotels this trip would meet basic expectations. Those wanting to fully experience the culture, charm, sights, history, lure, and have a true taste of Ireland may need to look elsewhere.

We took a two week tour seeing both Scotland and Ireland, spending about a week in each. Patty was our driver and guide and was absolutely AMAZING. He kept us on track, answered hundreds of questions, got us to all of the sites and made sure we had everything we needed. We stayed in 8 different hotels and our luggage was delivered to our room at each hotel. One of the best parts of this tour is that the bus was purposely not full. We almost had enough room for everyone to have their own seat and being on the bus for long amounts of time that was important to me. Being on this tour was a great way to visit places like Edinburgh, castles, palaces, abbeys, cemeteries, a distillery, Loch Ness, Glasgow, Belfast, Giant's Causeway, Cliffs of Moher, Ring of Kerry, Blarney Castle, and Dublin. This trip is go go go and not for the faint of heart, but it was amazing and I do not regret going on this tour for one minute. Well worth the price. Just to note, many of the hotels did not have AC and I did get a little tired of the hotel food and eating later at night. With that said, I would highly recommend this tour.
April J
May 2023 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
I just returned from the 14 day Scotland/Ireland tour. It was an amazing experience and I learned so much about so many different places. My favorite place of the trip was probably the two days we spent in Edinburgh. We were taken on tours, but we also had free time to explore on our own and we were able to see other sights not on the tour by doing this. The rest of the tour was packed with so many things which I wanted to see that there was very little free time to add additional preferences to our stops. Paddy was an amazing tour guide and driver. He was informative and knowledgeable and was able to fill in gaps that were often left out by the step-on guides that we had. One thing to keep in mind if you have food sensitivities or allergies, be very careful and check with the chef in each hotel. One thing I would change if I could would be the time spent eating. It took 1 1/2 to 2 hours to eat dinner with the group as they spread out starters, entrees, and dessert over a long period of time. I felt we could have condensed that and given us more free time to explore. We did decide to skip a few of the provided meals in some of the towns so that we could explore and eat on our own and that was fun. Overall an amazing experience.

May 2023 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
I just got back from a 14 day tour of Scotland, No. Ireland and Ireland. It was a whirlwind! We saw so many things and learned so much from our tour guide Paddy. He went above and beyond for our group. He was funny and full of information. He would tell us about the area we were going and give us suggestions for what to see and where to eat when he dropped us off. The one issue our group had was starting our three course two hour dinner at 7:30 each night. By the end of the day we were exhausted and ready for a quicker bite before bed. But I would certainly book another tour with My Ireland Tours! They are organized and well planned! Thank you for an amazing vacation!
Bridget Murphy
May 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
On behalf of us all, a major BRAVO! for all the elements of our tour. We enjoyed it immensely! Our only thoughts were that we wished we had more nights to stay at many of the beautiful and luxurious hotels to just sleep in and be lazy.. perhaps next time. And many thanks to our wonderful driver Patrick! He took excellent care of us. He was knowledgeable without being overwhelming, and accommodating on every level. He made the experience all the more memorable. The one day around the Ring of Kerry with John was also very enjoyable and informative. Overall, we had a splendid time and are very grateful for your assistance in making this all happen. We would certainly recommend 'My Ireland Tour' to others and perhaps take advantage again ourselves.

One of the best tours I have taken and I'll include cruises in that assessment also. Very well organized, four star hotels, breakfast fabulous, dinner very good. Excellent idea to have two nights in each hotel and not depart until 9AM. Visited some great sites with a knowledgeable and entertaining guide. Eamon finally admitted he doesn't lie but he may exaggerate sometimes. He is also a very good singer.
Glenda Smith
May 2023 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
My husband and I would not hesitate to recommend the 10-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland with My Ireland Tour. This tour is very well organized and ran smoothly. The tour covered everything we wanted to see and places we didn't know we needed to see until we did! All the hotels and meals were of a high standard, and the two night stay in each hotel was much appreciated. After our encounters with much larger tour groups of 45+ people on our travels, we soon appreciated our much smaller tour group of 26. I must say the star of our tour was Eamonn our driver and guide. His driving skills were second to none and had everyone on the coach in absolute awe. Eamonn's jovial personality and his added information about the history of Ireland, past and present, were invaluable.

We just returned from a 14 day private tour that took us up to Northern Ireland, all along the Wild Atlantic Way, Donegal, Connemara, Galway, Dingle, Killarney, and Kilkenny (many more places in between), with wonderful stays in 3 Castle Hotels and other 5 star accommodations! Gerry Murphy was our guide and driver and was so friendly, knowledgeable, and always gave us additional sights to see should we wish, made reservations for us and got us tickets to a fabulous Celtic dance and music show! Can't say enough about him! He went above and beyond! Kristel at My Ireland worked with me on my long list of the places we wished to see and made it all come together perfectly! Highly recommend using My Ireland Tour, you won't regret it and if you've never been to Ireland, you're in for a real treat. Truly beautiful country and people!!

May 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
Our tour of the Ring of Kerry was a phenomenal trip. The accommodations (my goodness the accommodations!), the sights, the meals and free time included were above and beyond any expectations. Dave, our driver and guide was lovely. He was informative, friendly fun and incredibly helpful. The 8 passenger bus was comfortable with large windows to see out of, seats to recline and nap in if you wanted. Dave would also pull over whenever we asked in order to take pictures. This vacation was the most stress free and beautiful time I have ever had, and I have traveled alot. For the money, this tour and the MyIrelandTours company cannot be beat. It is worth every penny and a steal for what you get to do. My only complaint is that this company and it's tours aren't available in any other countries outside Ireland, because I would love to use them any place I went in Europe.

May 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
A nice flavor of the country and a smaller group. I feel too much time was spent at Jameson and Guinness and not any time actually seeing the cities we were in. Very little of the history of areas was given. Many times we were just dropped off at sites by our driver/guide to see things on our own. The hotels were nice and food good but not up to tours I have done in the past.
Peggy McKenzie
May 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
This tour was a 12! The food was exceptional. The accommodations were all five star excellent! The service at each historical sight was exquisite. The scenery and the people of Ireland were extraordinary! Exceptional. Excellent. Exquisite. Extraordinary. I think these four words just about sums up our whole experience on this tour. Oh, but I can't forget to mention our delightful, knowledgable, and talented tour guide and driver, Tony. He regaled our little group with the history of Ireland's people along with captivating myths and stories. But I would certainly be remiss if I didn't mention Tony's lovely renditions of our favorite Irish songs. The trip wouldn't have been the same without him.

Our recent tour, the Deluxe Castle Tour of Ireland, was wonderful and exceeded expectations. Our guide/bus driver, Tony McGoey, was not only competent in explaining the sights and quite a bit of Irish history, but also a huge part of the enjoyment, with his anecdotes, his singing, and his personal touch in making everyone feel, for those 10 days, like part of a happy family. Thank you Tony, and My Ireland tours for a great experience!

What a marvelous tour. Frankly, I am feeling so much more attached to my Irish roots than ever before! I am the end of our line, so feeling the sense of rootedness is an important outcome for me. As one who used to teach leisure theory and tourism, Tom, you were impressive! On reflection, I do not know how you did it all. When No. Ireland is scheduled, I will book and hope to bring friends. By the way, the group coalesced well; with you we built trust and had genuine fun. Thank you.

What a wonderful 6 day tour. Our tour guide and driver Michael Coleman was excellent. Very good and handling the bus while being the tour guide too. Very knowledgeable about all the places we were going to and passing along the way. Answered everyone's questions and looked up any information you needed. I highly recommend My Ireland tour plus requesting Michael as our tour guide too!

May 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
We had a fabulous experience with My Ireland Tour. They were extremely helpful and accommodating in arranging the tour that we wanted, with our individual preferences taken into account. When we got to Ireland, everything couldn't have been better. Our tour guide was absolutely wonderful! He was friendly, helpful, great to be around, and generally a joy to have driving us so we didn't have to do that ourselves. He always made excellent suggestions along the way for places we should stop that would add to what we were doing, and they were great. He also knows people at every sight and can get his van in closer if you need that (my husband has come mobility issues and this was a plus)!. Sadly, we got covid partway through our trip and My Ireland Tours was incredibly helpful in working out how to manage this problem and get us to our flight home as needed. I highly recommend them.

It's been a week since i returned home from the Deluxe Castles Tour. My driver guide George was AMAZING. He was friendly, knowledgeable and worked around the clock to ensure our group's satisfaction. The Castle hotels we stayed at were immaculate. The food was delicious and like works of art on a plate. Ireland is so beautiful, pictures do not do it justice, you need to go experience it for yourself. I highly recommend My Ireland Tours and i hope to return again for the Scotland/Ireland tour.

We did the 10 day Iconic Scenes Tour in April 2023 and it was a wonderful experience all the way through. It was super easy to book and great communication with Shannon both before and after our trip. We saw so many sights we would never have seen without the tour and our driver Tony was amazing. He was a wealth of knowledge on all things Ireland and we learned so much about the past and present in Ireland and got a few good songs thrown in as well. He was really invested in each guest having a 'craic' and we all did! I would highly recommend this company.

my Ireland tours was fabulous! they took care of every little detail. Our tour guide Keith Boyd was absolutely full of Irish charm and so efficient and helpful. If your going to take a trip to the Emeral Isle you couldn't do any better than to leave the trip planning to My Ireland Tours and let Keith be your guide!

I would just like to say the my sister and I had such a wonderful time. I have never been with a tour group before and it was much better than expected. My met lovely people and I was able to relax without the hassle of driving and figuring out where to go. The accommodation were outstanding go the morning breakfast was more than we imagined. I also cannot say enough about our driver Tom. He was extremely friendly and personable. He left no stone unturned concerning history of Ireland.

The castle tour was great. George, our driver and guide, is very knowledgeable and informative. The smaller group was quite pleasant as we got to know our fellow travelers. The stops were well planned, with enough time at them. George really cared about all of us.

Having never been to Ireland, I highly recommend this tour. The company left nothing out our driver. Tom was excellent. He shared personal experiences as well as his knowledge of the country throughout our trip. The bus was clean, immaculate, as were all the hotels that we stayed at we highly recommend this trip to anybody who wants to see a little bit of what island has to offer

My wife Norma and I traveled to Ireland in April 2023 on a bucket list trip to see and tour the Emerald Isle. We chose the ten day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour, and are we very happy that we did. We cannot possibly express how pleased we were with this trip. We met some wonderful people in our group and Tom Lavin, our tour guide and driver, was fantastic. Tom kept us fully informed at every step of our journey around Ireland. From Kylemore Abbey to the Cliffs of Moher to the Blarney Castle to the colorful streets of Cork City and Kinsale, we gained an immense amount of knowledge about life in Ireland. We brought back at least 1,500 photos between us. I cannot speak highly enough about our guide Tom Lavin. He gave us plenty of time to visit all of the sights included on the ten day tour. Everyone in our group felt Tom was a fabulous tour guide and driver. If we ever get back to Ireland, we will add another My Ireland Tour to our trip and hope that we get Tom Lavin as our guide.

Such an amazing experience! I've never done a tour like this before, so I was apprehensive. But I'm so glad I made the decision to give it a try, I wouldn't of seen everything I did otherwise. The company was so easy to work with, giving great details and updates prior to the trip that made planning a breeze. Our driver, Tom Lavin, was amazing… Always giving us fun stories and interesting details about Ireland. We spent some long days on the bus, but Tom made the time fly by and always got us to our destination safe and sound. The six day tour hit all the highlights of things I wanted to see, it was very well planned out and made great use of each day. I would 100% recommend this company and this tour for anyone wanting to experience Ireland, I can't say enough good things.

May 2023 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
I did the 14 day scenic tour and it was AMAZING! My Ireland Tour and our guide John did not disappoint. John was knowledgeable and fun. He went above and beyond what I could have expected, including adding a few stops along the way that were not included stops or keep us behind schedule. He always made sure that we were accounted for and made recommendations if places for food and shopping when we arrived at each location. Like said, John was top notch. Most of the food and hotels were great. More than what I expected. I did have a problem at the Clayton on the first stop there. I had no hat water and had to ask twice for it to be checked. Once John found out the issue it was addressed. Dinners were a three course meal and breakfast was buffet style. I found that the driver can make or break the tour and John definitely made ours. My Ireland Tour was the best way to go and I highly recommend them. In fact I'm looking at their Scotland tour for next year.

What a wonderful trip we had!! Everything was so well organized. Smooth transitions every step of the way. Our tour guide Tony was the best. He was wonderful singer and gracious host. We were able to see so much and Tony was a wealth of knowledge along the way. Our weather was beautiful and sunny with a few spits of rain but overall we were very fortunate. I am already planning my next trip.

We travelled with My Ireland Tour on the '14-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour'. This tour company was great - the best I have traveled with thus far, as they were hands-on and very helpful in setting up the tour for us and answering all of our questions. This specific tour was really wonderful. Everything we did was well planned in advance. Each day was filled with wonderful experiences and great places for us to visit. We never had to get up too early, and we were never in a rush. We had two drivers/guides, Pat & John. Both were very professional bus drivers and yet also very personable, very funny guides. They were always focused on everyone in our tour group having a good time and a safe experience. [Note: The WIFI on the bus did not work.] The hotels were very, very nice and the food & service in the hotel and in their dining rooms was always good. [Note: Three of the hotels did not have air conditioning, but it was April, the windows opened and there was a portable fan.] We would definitely recommend this tour company and this tour!!!

Fantastic Tour! I took the 10-Day Iconic Tour with My Ireland Tours and it was amazing. It was a good pace and great value. Honestly, I don't think I would have gotten as much out of my visit to Ireland without the tour. Our guide, Tony, was so informative, he added so much. I learned alot about the history and the culture of the Irish both past and present. I would recommend this tour company to anyone visiting Ireland.

My daughter and I travelled with My Ireland Tour on the 14 Day Iconic Tour and this trip was everything and more than we anticipated it to be. We had two drivers, Pat and John, very different in their approach, but both fabulous at sharing details of each area we visited. This was my first Bus Tour and I didn't image we would pack as much into each day. Ireland is a beautiful country and the people are amazing, so warm and welcoming. I never had a full understanding of the Country but every step of the way I received an education I didn't imagine. I will for sure refer everyone interested in touring Ireland to book through My Ireland Tour. Thank you to everyone involved.

We just got back from a 7 day private tour with My Ireland Tour. So preferred this verses a big bus tour. Our highlights were staying at the Glasha B and B hosted by Olive. She is a fantastic cook and hostess. Walked down to a pub after dinner called By The River and got to meet he owner and his sister. Truly lovely people. The other highlight was going on a nature walk in Caherdaniel/Derrynane National Park with local guide, Vincent. He was so warm, friendly, informative and a talented artist. Our driver Ray did a nice job getting us around all the crazy narrow roads. He also patiently answered our many questions about Ireland and it's history. The hotels and food were excellent and much better than expected. Thank you for a wonderful trip!!!

We had a wonderful family trip to Ireland in April. We were a family of 15 and we booked a 25 seater coach through My Ireland Tour which was the best decision ever. Working with Eric on our itinerary was easy and pleasant. Eric was very responsive and helpful. Our driver, Brian was fantastic. Brian was so knowledgeable, kind, professional, flexible, and funny. Brian and My Ireland Tour helped make our family trip so memorable and fun. We started in Dublin and worked our way south to Shannon visiting Galway, Limerick, Killarney, Dingle and Abbeyfeale along the way. Brian took us to many beautiful spots along the way such as the Cliffs of Moher and the Ring of Kerry. I highly recommend My Ireland Tour and of course, Brian. He became part of the family that week and we are so grateful to him for helping us make this trip one we will never forget. We look forward to doing it again in a couple of years. Thank you, Brian and My Ireland Tour!

April 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
On March 30, 2023 my wife Joanne, my sister-in law Patty, my brother-law Bill, my niece Jessica and me left the shores of America and traveled in reverse time back to my ancestor's homeland, Ireland. For 10 days we visited the eternally green country of hopes and dreams. First and foremost, this journey would not have been possible without my niece Jessica's energetic vision to arrange a once in a lifetime trip. She chose 'My Ireland Tours' to lead us through the journey. Her choice of 'My Ireland Tours' was a nothing short of visionary. My wife, her father & mother and myself will always be grateful to her. We spent the first day in Dublin touring Trinity College (visiting the Book of Kells), Dublin Castle, and the Temple Bar Square. After a short respite we culminated our day with a tasty meal and a pint of Guinness that was as pure as mother's milk at the venerable Brazen Head Pub built in 1198. Obviously, there have been a few glasses raised there over the past 825 years. The next day, refreshed and energized we started the journey through Ireland led by Michael Coleman, a tour guide extraordinaire. He took us from Dublin to Galway, with stops at the mystical Clonmacnoise on the River Shannon, the Connemara mountains and the Kylemore Abbey. The Abbey was a beautiful sprawling estate and castle run by the Benedictine Community of nuns. After spending 2 nights in Galway City we traveled to the breathtaking Cliffs of Mohr. We then moved on to Killarney, the Ring of Kerry, Blarney Castle, the Michael Collins Memorial, Cobh City, then to Cork City, and the Rock of Cashel before traveling back to Dublin for a one-day grand tour of Dublin. But….back to Michael Coleman who really made the trip fun and interesting. He was a non-stop whirlwind of Irish historical knowledge, geographical information, and the description and tales of the unique plant life of Ireland (the Hawthorne trees, and the Gorse hedge) that dotted the Irish landscape. He always added humor and a smile that seemed to last forever. Speaking for all of us, he felt like part of our family by the end of our trip. We wish to thank him personally, and offer the best to him and his family. When we return again to Ireland we will choose “My Ireland Tours' and request Michael to take us on another epic journey. Thank you 'My Ireland Tours', and for the generosity and friendliness of the Irish people. Our family truly felt the Gaelic 'Cead Mile Failte' (hundred thousand welcomes).

This company was absolutely incredible!!! I highly recommend! From the planning stages of our trip to Ireland, all the way through till the day we came home they were amazing. Every employee from My Ireland Tour was professional, knowledgeable, and exactly what we were looking for in a private tour company. To start, I must have called and emailed with Eric no less than 45X before we finalized our itinerary. He was so nice and always answered my questions fully, and with ease. He never seemed frustrated or bothered. Eric was so wonderful to work with and I trusted every decision he helped me make. When my group of 13 people arrived in Ireland, we were greeted by two of the nicest individuals, who happened to also be our drivers (Keith and Brian). Brian departed our group after day one, but Keith stayed on for the remainder of the trip, and he was fabulous!! He knew so much about the history of Ireland, and he was also up to date on current events – driving around the country was full of fun history and storytelling. Keith knew exactly how to keep you interested and engaged – the perfect tour guide. Additionally, both Keith and Brian seemed to be very safe drivers, I felt comfortable with their driving even on some of the narrowest roads. They kept us on time so that we did not miss anything that we wanted to see, and they made sure that we arrived at popular destinations before the crowds did and avoided long wait times. I could go on and on about the amazing experience we had. Every person in our group was pleased. I would definitely go back to Ireland, and I would 100% go through My Ireland Tour to book it.

April 2023 • 6 Day Iconic Scenes
My wife and I booked the '6-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland' tour for our much delayed honeymoon (we got married during COVID), and it was absolutely fantastic. From the first moment we landed in Dublin airport to leaving Shannon airport, 'My Ireland Tour' took care of us and not once did we ever feel lost or unsafe. BIG shout out to Tom Lavin as our driver/tour guide. He was very knowledgeable, engaging, friendly, and a terrific driver. The trip honestly was great BECAUSE of him. When you are with 24 other people for 6 days, and lots of moving parts, its great to have a calm and collected guide like Tom. His humor had my wife and I in stiches at times. The hotels we went to (Clayton Hotel) did its job. They were clean, the staff was welcoming, and the food was OK. Nothing to right home about, so I would recommend trying out the local restaurants nearby. Even though it was technically 5 days worth of a trip (the 6th day is transporting back to the airport), there were lots of sites we went to. Highlights were: Guinness, EPIC Irish Migration Museum, Cliff Of Moher, Ring of Kerry, and kissing the Blarney Stone. We were lucky in that the weather was fantastic and it never rained and had sunny skies. Even so, I would be prepared to bring waterproof pants/boots and rain jacket. It is quite windy in Cliff Of Moher, so I would definitely layer up on that day. The coach that we were on were also comfortable. Although we spent many hours in the coach, it didn't feel too bad since Tom gave us plenty of stops along the way to stretch our legs and buy some food to eat. Finally, it was quite bitter sweet leaving Ireland. The people, food, history, and landscape, were all beautiful and my wife and I are already planning for more trips there. Thank you 'My Ireland Tour' for making this possible!

What an amazing trip and I can't wait to come back. Tom was fantastic, so knowledgeable, patient and made the trip even better. I didn't realize we'd be sitting for so long on the bus and couldn't take a lot of pictures driving by some places but it worked. The hotels were just ok that we stayed in. I'd suggest this tour to others who can't take a longer tour.

April 2023 • My Ireland Tour Package
Thank you!!As we planned our family trip to Ireland, our travel agent with Wander Your Way helped us find My Ireland Tour. I would definitely recommend My Ireland Tour to anyone who prefers a small private tour of Ireland. The folks at My Ireland Tour clearly listened to our travel agent because the suggested itinerary clearly reflected our interests and personalities, offering the variety and the flexibility we specifically asked for. The coach was comfortable, providing enough room for all of our personal items and safe passage throughout the counties that we toured. The Rock of Cashel was our first stop, an interesting glimpse into the history that we were to encounter throughout Ireland. The Happy Pig B&B in Kenmare was tip top, having that warm cozy feeling that our family appreciates. We absolutely loved our time in Kenmare…. restaurants and pubs, traditional Irish music that we stumbled upon, the quality of shops, the friendliness of the shopkeepers! We enjoyed journeying through the spectacular Ring of Kerry. Your choice of The Blind Piper Pub for our lunch was perfect…. the fire in the fireplace inside the pub area captured the essence of the area and immediately drew us in and the food tasty! Muckross House had something for all of us. Some enjoyed the history of the home, admiring the weavers' work while some simply enjoyed walking the grounds. Heaton's Guest House was a beautiful choice for our stay in Dingle. The rooms were beautifully decorated and clean, the breakfasts delicious, and afternoon tea and chocolate cake in the gathering room an unexpected treat! We had asked for time to go to Mass on Easter Sunday. So, we attended mass at St. Mary's, a special experience for us all. Touring Dingle Peninsula was on our itinerary, providing breathtaking views of coastal and mountain scenery. The Wild Atlantic Way and the Cliffs of Moher was a highlight. Kylemore Abby and the Gothic Church built to honor the owner's wife was amazing. We requested to stay at Ballynahinch Castle. What an experience..... it is remote and elegant, steeped in history, surrounded by beautiful gardens and a flowing river. However, I think our family would all agree that the real star of the week was Brian, our guide and driver. His Irish warmth, wit, his knowledge of the geography, the religion, the economy, the folk lore, made the trip fun and fact filled. He filled the hours we were together with so much information answering hundreds of questions. He went above and beyond leading to many bonus stops as he called them.... Anascaul with the story of Irish explorer Tom Crean, … the Red Fox Inn for Irish coffee…..Celtic Crystal in Moycullen, meeting the owner and an artisan who demonstrated creating designs on a crystal bowl and beautiful pieces for sale of which I brought home several … stops at memorials that honored those who died in the famine …. many stops for random “Kodak moments'. And the list goes on. The most kindest 'bonus' that Brian arranged was a meeting on the Saturday before Easter with Brian deStaic in Dingle. We had explained that one reason that our family had chosen Ireland to celebrate my husband's 70th birthday was the connection to Irish heritage, even though we have not been able to trace anyone to any specific County. Knowing the Gaelic alphabet and Irish-Gaelic name variations, Brian took it upon himself to call Brian deStaic to ask if he would have time to meet my husband. He did, and they did, a highlight for my husband. Besides all of that, he was a safe driver navigating the twists and turns and complicated Irish roads. He didn't just drop us off and say 'see you later'; he accompanied us everywhere making sure we arrived at any point of location safely and making sure we knew where the coach would be parked upon our return. He would allow ample time for exploring the different points of interest. Our family is grateful to My Ireland Tour and our guide for creating and implementing a trip where memories were made that our will forever cherish.

April 2023 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
This March my wife and I were on the 14 day tour and we loved the portion that we were able to complete. We started in Belfast, learned a great deal about area and 'the troubles'. Every site thereafter was spectacular and informative. Unfortunately my wife slipped, broke her ankle at one of the sites (Cliff of Moher), a breathtaking view of the sea and cliffs. This moment changed everything, our tour guide Tom Lavin immediately let the hotel know of the incident and proceeded to order a wheelchair for her. Tom made sure we were taken care of, had what we needed, and provided information on the hospital. We were told surgery was needed, so we booked trip back home. Tom had kept Managing Director Eric O'Gorman informed of the recent turn of events, and was decided to arrange a private car to take my wife to the airport. This was such a blessing and surprise. The driver stayed with us until we were safely handed over to the airport assistant . This tour company went above and beyond what we could of expected. When we return, we'll pick up, where we left off. Good Travels!

My wife and I had a trip of a lifetime with My Ireland Tour!! We took the 10 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour and it was the best decision we've made all year. Our tour guide, Tom, was so great - super nice, funny, professional, helpful, full of great tips and suggestions, and we really enjoyed hearing everything he had to say (from stories about fairies to local news and general goings-on). I personally am very thankful that he is also an excellent driver - I unfortunately suffer from motion sickness, but for the most part I was completely fine on the bus due to Tom's careful driving on some of the rougher roads. I also appreciated the advance notice he gave us on which days would be trickier (I always knew when to take that Dramamine!). I loved the fact that we were in a small group setting for the trip as well! I couldn't imagine being on a larger tour with 40 or 50 people. With a smaller group, I felt like we were able to really engage with each other and make new friends! There was also plenty of opportunity to explore things on our own during times when my wife and I were looking for a more quieter atmosphere. I have no complaints - I really enjoyed the hotels we stayed in, the places we visited, the extra surprise stops along the way, and ALL THE IRISH COFFEE! The process of booking the trip and the pre-trip communication were both seamless and we felt very prepared before leaving. Definitely already looking at when we would want to return to this beautiful country and the other trips My Ireland Tour offers! I 100% recommend!!!

Visiting Ireland was an absolute bucket list item for my wife Lori and I. My Ireland Tour made it one of the most memorable trips we have ever taken. Going with a group of 20+ people for 10 days was a concern for sure...but what a great time we had. Tom was our tour guide and he was engaging , thoughtful and very knowledgeable. He made even the long days on the bus go quickly. We was also VERY careful and skilled as a driver. We felt extremely comfortable and safe at all times. The other members of the group were all fun, up for a great time and a real pleasure to be around. We made some truly great friends that we will have forever. The trip itself was a whirl wind of amazing scenery, spectacular landmarks, comfortable hotels and of course, delicious food and beer! My wife had to keep a journal to to keep up with all the great things we saw and places we visited. We look forward to more adventures with My Ireland Tour in the very near future! Thanks for a memories!

Amazing trip with an amazing driver/guide, Tom Lavin! I was lucky to grab the last spot on the 10 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland and am so happy I did. The booking process and communication with Eric and Shannon was seamless. As a solo traveler, I was nervous about going alone but Tom and everyone on the trip made me feel so welcome. The pace of the trip was just right. I loved that we stayed two nights in each hotel, which made for a more relaxed trip and allowed us the time to explore on our own. Tom was engaging, funny, informative and a fantastic driver! He taught us so much about the history of Ireland as well as the Ireland of today. Ireland is such as beautiful country and the people are so friendly. I highly recommend My Ireland Tours and especially if you book a tour with Tom at the helm!

One of the best drunk decisions I have ever made. I was drinking one night, saw this, and booked it for my friend and I, both of us extremely happy that I did. Our tour guide/driver, Tom, was knowledgeable about both history and current events in Ireland. The hotels we stayed in were clean and comfortable. We were lucky enough to have sunny skies pretty much the whole time as well, making the experience even better. I would recommend doing a longer tour instead of just the 6 day because it is pretty packed with places to go and there is a lot of time riding on the coach. Overall it was worth the money and I would highly recommend this company to anyone traveling to Ireland.

You know you've found the right tour group and guide when you have to leave the country without a dry eye because you know you're going to miss it. Our Guide, Tom, could not have been a better ambassador for Ireland; friendly, personable, engaging, and knowledgeable about his country's past, present and future made for the best introduction to the magic that is Ireland. I've never hired a tour because I've always had reservations about following other people's schedules and itineraries. Having gone with My Ireland Tour, those concerns were put to rest. The hotels, transfers, and destinations really were well thought out and gave the best picture of Ireland that we could have asked for as guests. We're already planning Northern Ireland in 2024 and hope Tom will be able to work that tour!!! A million thanks to My Ireland Tour, I've travelled to Europe many times and this by far has been my favorite holiday, 'GOOD CRAIC' indeed, thanks Tom!!!

Just got back from my ireland tour with 19 of my family members. We worked with Catriona for the planning and she was wonderful. She was able to answer all of our question, adjust our tour, deal with a family member dropping out of the tour, getting my grandma a wheel chair and recommending dinner spots for us. The whole planning process was smooth due to Catriona. Our tour guide was Paddy, and he was wonderful. He went above and beyond to show us/ tell us about ireland. We feel we got to see everything important. He was great with my grandparents and guiding us with tour spots and what we can do. Anyone looking to go to Ireland is in great hands dealing with Catriona and having paddy has a tour guide.

As I sit on my plane flight home, I wanted to put in words how grateful I am for this opportunity I have had to visit Ireland. It has been my life dream to visit. I had no idea what I signed up for, but I couldn't have had anything better than My Ireland Tours. Specifically, Tony Mc Goey was hands down an amazing human and a fantastic tour guide. Leaving is bittersweet and saying goodbye was difficult for me. He, alongside my travel agent Cheri of Cheri's Travel Spot made my dreams a perfect reality. Tony was knowledgeable, funny, kind, genuine and a load of craic. If you are ever blessed to visit Ireland, you would be lucky to do so with Tony and My Ireland Tour. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

April 2023 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
First the Great: Wow! This was amazing! For my first time out of the country, I was worried about planning a comprehensive trip but My Ireland Tour made it so easy! We did the 10 day Iconic Scenes Tour and we learned so much history. Our tour guide/driver was Tony and he was so engaging, energetic, and really accommodating not only to our needs but also to help make this the best tour we could possibly have by helping us hit on our 'wants' as well. His advice on places to eat for lunch or things to do and see were always spot on and he was so knowledgeable about everything we might have questions on! I have to make hundreds of decisions every day with my job so I wanted a trip where I wasn't faced with too many decisions about what to go do/see each day and this fit the bill perfectly. There was one day where we didn't want to do everything the tour was doing, but Tony helped us plan how best to do what we wanted (Trinity College Library/the Book of Kells and the National Museum of Archaeology) and how to meet up with the tour in the easiest way possible. My husband and I are also not drinkers of alcohol at all, but we both enjoyed the tour of the Jameson Distillery and learning the process of making Whiskey through the years. On Tony's recommendation we did skip the Guinness Tour and I don't regret anything! Now the cons: There were several days where it felt like we were on the bus A LOT but because we were typically hitting 3-4 things a day, I felt like this was reasonable (and we covered a lot of kilometres during the course of our trip). Also, if you are prone to getting motion sick, make sure you take meds every day. I was fine for the first 3 days, but after that I got sick almost every day we were on the bus. Also, the bus WIFI was subpar. We could connect to it just fine, but it didn't actually grant any access. They had a number to call if you had issues with connecting, but (if you are like us) we needed wifi because we turned off our data! On the plus side, I felt like I used my phone a lot less and saw a lot more of the countryside because of this. On the whole, it was wonderful and I would highly recommend this tour to everyone!

If you're considering a tour as a means to explore Ireland, look no further than My Irish Tour. We planned a six person family tour customized to meet our families' desires to visit historical family places as well as the suggested tour stops. My Ireland Tours met our requirements and then some. The work done by Kristel to plan the routes and stops were just what we hoped for. Our Tour Guide and Driver Pat was terrific. He's very knowledgable, accommodating and a lot of fun. A really good guy! One of our group members fell ill during the trip and Pat was very helpful in working through our needs and all ended well. We'll be back again next year for some of our unexplored parts of Ireland, the tour left us wanting more!

I went alone, but immediately felt like part of the group. Would highly recommend to anyone. Our bus driver/tour guide, Tony, was beyond amazing!! He truly made the journey through Ireland memorable. Thank you to every at My Ireland Tour! Best vacation ever!!!

100% amazing trip from start to finish! I went on the 10-day 'Iconic Scenes of Ireland' tour traveling solo joining a small group of 25 total. The vibe was cheery and there were 5 other solo female travelers on this tour - ages varying from mid thirties to seventy-ish, and it was an unexpected and delightful surprise to be able to make such quick friends and bond over our trip. Tony, our driver/escort, took extremely good care of the group and gifted us with his extensive knowledge, history, sites and scenery of the country. There was so much I learned from his stories and even the occasional song. :) All of the hotels were beautiful and comfortable, and even felt a little upscale to me. The tour itinerary was varied and gave us the opportunity to visit so many lovely towns around the country. Tony was available for any request and I felt very taken care of the whole time. I can't begin to describe the beauty of Ireland and the warm friendliness of its residents. You can strike up a conversation with virtually anyone and people seemed genuinely interested in talking and showcasing their country. MyIrelandTours (and Keith in particular) was very responsive and helpful at each step of the way when I was booking this trip. I absolutely recommend this company and will book again when I can return!

I went on this trip solo, and left with new friends and amazing memories! I was on the 10 day scenic tour. Every stop we made, went seamlessly. I loved how everything was ready for the 25 of us as soon as we made it to our destinations. Tony, our tour guide was fantastic. He's funny, very knowledgeable about Ireland, an impressive driver and if you're lucky, he'll sing to you! I am so happy I chose My Ireland Tour to have my first solo trip with.

We are still on our tour but I'm over impressed with the knowledge Tom has of the country. And the care of the company one of the ladies in our tour fell and broke her ankle not only did Tom do everything to make her comfortable but Eric sent a private transfer to get her to the airport to go home. This company is amazing. We are home now from an amazing tour of Ireland; it was our first time to see Ireland. We had a wonderful time learned so much history about the country. Every day was a new adventure, I am so thankful I found myireland tours to book through. If we had tried to venture on our own we would have missed so much of the country and amazing sites. I highly recommend this company to anyone wanting to travel to Ireland,. Tom was our guide most of the trip with Desmond, Jamie and Pat helping out. The local guides that helped at some of the sites were also great.

My husband and I went on the 10 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour for our Honeymoon in March 2023. Our tour guide, Tony, was amazing and the tour itself hit all the highlights. At each destination there are 2 nights of accommodation so you don't have to pack up every day which was great. All of our entrance fees for parks/breweries/distilleries were taken care of ahead of time which made things so easy. Each stop felt like just the right amount of time, too. We both enjoyed our tour and it was a trip of a lifetime! Thank you, My Ireland Tours!

I went on the 10 day iconic scenes of Ireland tour. I must say it was a trip of a lifetime. I learned so much about the history, culture and people of Ireland. I was overwhelmed by the sheer beauty of it. I went with my families and was able to connect with family members in Ireland. Tony McGoey was our tour guide. He was absolutely wonderful. He was professional, friendly, fun, and a wealth of knowledge about beautiful Ireland. He truly made our trip special and went out of his way to make sure everyone was welcomed, comfortable and happy. He even sang me a sweet Irish song for my Birthday. Such a special treat. Such a blessing to everyone on his tour. Thank you Tony for educating me about Ireland and being a true example of the NICE people of Ireland.

Did the 10-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour with 9 family members. Ireland is a great place to visit with a lot of history. We had a great tour group and no issues worth mentioning with 25 people over 10 days. The best thing for me was our driver/tour guide Tony McGoey. I can't say enough about him and his overall ability to bring history, fun, jokes, singing and make us feel special. If you can book a tour and get Tony as a guide you will be in for the treat of a lifetime. My Ireland Tour gets 5 stars. Tony McGoey gets 10 stars and my sincere thank you.

This was the trip of a lifetime for our family of five. We had a private escorted tour. Keith helped us in every aspect of putting our trip in order for us. He was very thoughtful in putting together what was important for us to do and see. The hotels were amazing and located in spots which were in great areas to walk and explore. Our driver guide Colm Fitzgibbon was beyond words wonderful. He went above and beyond in so many ways for our family. We visited the home where my husband's grandfather left Ireland in Cork city. Colm took us to the church he was baptized in. He even arranged for us to take the train into Cobh which was the route he would have likely traveled. So many wonderful little extras made this trip spectacular. Do not hesitate to use My Ireland Tours.

My Ireland Tour is the best, both hotels were excellent from the food, the comfortable beds to the staff everything was top notch to insure we had an easy and amazing time. Patrick, our driver was outstanding, friendly, very helpful and above all very knowledgeable on the history and areas we toured. This should be a must for every bucket list!

This was a dream trip of a lifetime and My Ireland Tours made it extraordinary. Our tour guide, Patrick, was phenomenal. He went out of his way to ensure our experience was spectacular. Patrick is a gifted storyteller! He was a wealth of knowledge (literally a walking encyclopedia). We learned so much history about this beautiful country. Every stop and sight was simply amazing. We had a great group of travelers on our bus which made the experience even more fun! Thank you :)

This was our first guided tour but I cannot imagine one better than this one. Our tour guide was extremely was extremely knowledgeable, very courteous and always willing to answer our questions. He was very patient with all of us foreigners and we were visiting Ireland for the first time (hopefully not our last). We would definitely visit again if we can have the experience we had on this trip.

My recent trip to Ireland, was the second time with My Ireland Tours and it keeps getting better and better. It is all started with the planning. Both Keith and Eric set up a great trip for us to see the Wild Atlantic Way. It was breathtaking… We also couldn't have asked for a better tour guide. Paddy's personality fit perfectly with the travel group. His knowledge and love of Ireland came shining throughout the tour. Every day was new adventure and we saw so many hidden gems… Our memories will last a lifetime.

We took the 10 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour in July. Everyone in our family, even the 15 year-old, had a terrific time. Tony was a great tour guide. He provided insights into modern day life in Ireland as well as detailed historical information. We felt we got a really great overview of an amazingly scenic country and every day saw something more beautiful than the day before. It was very enjoyable to just relax on the bus and let Tony get us from place to place in such an entertaining and expert way. We would recommend highly.

A wonderful trip. My first time visiting Ireland & this tour gave me a great overview of the country. The hotels we stayed at were true experiences to remember. We were treated to lovely meals & offered many extras we requested. Our driver guide Tony added so much to the tour. His narrative of Irish history & his serenades will always be remembered. I only wish I could have recorded them. As a single woman I was pleased with how well our tour group mixed with each other. I felt comfortable & welcome in the group.

We just returned from the 10 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour and this was our first experience with an organized tour company. Shauni was wonderful to work with in booking our tour and communication was excellent. Tom, our driver/guide, was amazing. Our itinerary was very diverse with a nice balance between group activities and free time on our own. We also had a few surprises thrown in along the way that just made our experience even more special. Tom is so knowledgeable and told us everything there is to know about Ireland. He was very kind, patient, caring, and an excellent driver, and made sure we were all enjoying ourselves and having a good time. I just can't say enough about how much we enjoyed ourselves. As this tour was mainly central and southern Ireland which was great because we got to see smaller towns along with the major ones, I hope in the future they offer a tour that would include Scotland along with Northern Ireland. I would definitely use them again!

We had a wonderful week in Ireland with our guide/driver, Sean. He was well-versed in all the sites we visited & was so kind. We made a few changes from our original itinerary (while we were on our tour) & Sean made it happen seamlessly. Our accommodations were beautiful & so comfortable. Leave the details to My Ireland Tours for an unforgettable experience.

November 2022 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
I recently returned from the 10 day iconic scenes tour from My Ireland Tour with Tom as our guide/driver. I'm not even sure where to start. I have wanted to visit Ireland for 30 years and I finally took the opportunity to book the trip for my recent birthday. I found this company when I googled 'solo female travel in Ireland'. The booking process was easy and the communication from the company was timely and thorough. It was exceptionally comprehensive what to expect and when and I had no issues whatsoever with the booking process. The tour itself was exceptional. Tom was amazing, he was very knowledgeable about the history of Ireland as well as local events and news that is currently happening. His enthusiasm was contagious. He was also so accommodating and when a group of us mentioned wanting to get a tattoo, he went above and beyond to make that happen. He was very patient and an excellent driver on those twisty roads. The itinerary was jam packed with fun activities but you still had time to be by yourself if you wanted. As a solo traveler, that was very important to me, as a natural introvert. And the side excursions were super fun as well. The group I was with was a mix of people, couples, friends and solo travelers like myself, and I enjoyed hanging with them all very much. I can't recommend My Ireland Tour enough and I would eagerly book with them again if I ever went back to Ireland! I'd give them 10 stars if I could. Absolutely superb.

We recently took the 10 day tour with Tom around Ireland. We enjoyed every minute of it! Our group was a lot of fun to travel with, Tom was a wise and witty guide. His ability to navigate tight roads was fantastic! The added extras not listed on the itinerary were wonderful as well. We are looking forward to our return visit to Ireland and would highly recommend My Ireland Tour! Well organized and comfortable!

Book your trip now! My Ireland Tour did a fantastic job planning a 7-day tour for my friend and myself. Shaunie and Eric were so easy to work with and put our dream trip together. When one of our accommodations fell through at the last minute, they got us somewhere even better. Our tour guide Paddy could not have been better suited for us. Warm, knowledgeable, kind, funny and a genuine love of his home. Everyday was a new adventure with several unexpected but awesome stops. It was every thing I had hoped for and more.

No wonder that fairies, leprechauns and other fabulous creatures have chosen to live in Ireland and Scotland. Driving along the picturesque Loch Lomond or through the forest at Lough Eske Castle I was almost expecting to see some of them. It would have been a marvellous addition to the picture of Nessie … But without the help of Eric and his team I would never have been able to enjoy another amazing tour with My Ireland Tour. Thanks again for finding me a vacancy on this tour. We were just 24 people and had plenty of space in a huge and very comfortable coach. Although I was the only non- native English speaker, I never felt lost on contrary this awesome and friendly group made me feel welcome the very beginning. Our tour director Harry Fisher was simply the best. I still envy his outstanding driving skills. If you want to see Ireland / Scotland and meet fantastic people, I highly recommend My Ireland Tour.

As a seasoned traveler, I can honestly say that 'My Ireland Tour' is the BEST tour I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing. The itinerary was thorough and thoughtfully prepared, but the commentary, personalization and side excursions presented by our guide made this tour exceptional. Our guide, Tom, was both knowledgeable about Ireland's history, each region's unique qualities, and the global Ireland of today. Tom was the 'jewel in the crown' and took each new encounter to a new level. Even with an injury sustain before the trip, he was patient and caring, and made sure I enjoyed each opportunity at my own pace. Although travelling alone, at the end of the tour I felt as though I was with my family. Shared meals, laughter and experiences made this my most memorable trip abroad. Well done 'My Ireland Tour'! I will see you again.

Just finished our the 14 day tour of Scotland and Ireland. It was a mother-daughters trip and I can say we would do a tour with My Ireland Tour again in a heartbeat. I loved the small size of the tour and the ability to space out on the bus. The smaller tour also gave us an opportunity to meet a wonderful group of people. Our driver Harry was outstanding and did a great job on reading the mood of the bus each and every day. If My Ireland Tour did 2 weeks in Scotland I would book another trip tomorrow. Thank you for a wonderful time - my daughters loved every moment of the trip.

We had a wonderful time on our 6 day My Ireland Tour. We saw amazing sights, had the best ever tour guide (Brian! We miss you!), and we were so well taken care of. It was wonderful not to have to worry about driving in Ireland! We were shuttled around in such a comfortable coach and loved meeting new friends on this tour. The time at each spot was just right. I would absolutely recommend My Ireland Tour company.

My husband and I loved our trip to Scotland and Ireland with My Ireland Tour. Our driver/guide was fantastic! He was knowledgeable about the history of the area and pointed out interesting places along the drive. The food was amazing. Our hotels were all very nice. This tour allowed us to see many places in Scotland and Ireland in the 2 weeks. I felt the pace was good. There was a nice mix of time with the group and time on our own. I appreciated being able to go on a big trip and not have to plan all of the little details. We could not have asked for a better trip. We highly recommend My Ireland Tour and would go on another trip with them in the future!

This trip exceeded my expectations. My Ireland Tour did a great job communicating the schedule prior to arrival, answered all of my questions, arranged wonderful accommodations, along with a schedule that hit all the right notes. Our driver/guide Peter Kelly was amazing. Extremely knowledgeable history, commentary as we were driving. He accommodated extra requests, arranged a few extra stops that were great. Peter helped with recommendations, making and adjusting reservations on our behalf. I hope to go back and would highly recommend My Ireland Tour!

My husband and I just returned from our 10 day Ireland tour for our past due 22 year honeymoon. First I want to give praise to our tour guide Tom. He was calm at all times and full of jokes and knowledge of everyplace we visited. All the accommodations and meals were great top notch. It was so nice to not have to worry about anything. I would highly recommend for anyone wanting to visit Ireland. This was our first guided coach tour and I will for sure do again.

How do I begin? It was absolutely amazing! I wasn't sure what to expect, this was the first time doing a escorted tour and we lucked out and got Harry Fisher as our driver and tour guide. Harry was personable and helpful every step of the way. Each stop and hotel was executed on time and as expected. Each attraction was such a great experience and the information provide by Harry made the tour so informative and fun. Our group was fun and the ease of their companionship on the tour really made the whole experience so enjoyable. I am ready to go back and even looking to plan another tour with My Ireland Tour soon. Thank you for an incredible experience!

We made the right choice when we booked our My Ireland Tour. Everything from booking, to scheduling to accommodations went perfectly. Our guide Maurice was excellent. His knowledge, professionalism, personality and driving skills made our trip memorable. We've been on bus tours before. The private tour was the way to go for us and we'll certainly call these folks again. We can't say enough about how well this company performed. Thank you.

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the Scotland/Ireland tour. Our driver/guide, Pat, not only facilitated each detail of the journey, but helped it come alive with his vast knowledge. My only suggestion would be to use hotels in Galway and Dublin that allow travelers to access the city on their free time. Lodging outside of town restricts ability to see and visit local sites. Thank you for a once in a lifetime experience!!!!

October 2022 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
My husband & I took MIT's 10 Day Iconic Sights Tour, August 22-31. We're still smiling as we recall great moments from the tour! (This was a make-up trip for our Covid journey cancelled in April 2020. IT was a self-drive tour we'd planned ourselves. When we researched reviving the tour this year, car rental prices were still sky-high, so we opted for a bus tour instead. The MIT trip's itinerary covered nearly ALL the main sites we'd planned to see in 2020, PLUS fit in several places we'd nixed because of the extra drive-time involved. Yay!!) The tour group officially capped at 26; however, our bus group was 17, made of 3 separate family groups. It was a blast, and people were very friendly and fun to be with. Here's the highlights we most appreciated: 1. Harry, our tour bus driver/guide. What a hoot!! He did a fab job every day, and arranged for 3 of us to visit an Irish music/dancing show at a nearby hotel the evening of one of our stops. Harry was very knowledgeable, humorous, down-to-earth, patient--and relaxed, it seemed, even with all of us being his ongoing responsibility. 2. Pace of the tour. We crammed so much into this trip, yet it was paced very well. There were a few times I wished we'd had a bit more time at a particular place, but who doesn't feel that way on ANY trip?? Nicely done. They really did a great job choosing the places to go & see. 3. Price. When you factor in the very nice hotels, breakfasts and dinners included, and entrance fees, the price was such a great value! 4. Two nites/hotel. We REALLY appreciated the fact that (apart from the original start-up night) we had two nights at each hotel stop. So we weren't always packing & unpacking. Harry took care of loading 1 bag/person, so we decided we'd pack up our shared main suitcase & set it out early for him to load; but we retained a small bag each to finish with toiletries & our final pack-ups after breakfast, then simply put it in the bus when we boarded for each departure. Total convenience! No stress! 5. Beautiful overview of Ireland. We know we didn't do the lovely country of Ireland justice, but what a great first time visit! We got a great taste of the variety of topography here, saw both cities & small villages, enjoyed assorted Irish music each day on the bus, and got a feel for its history, ancient and recent; and met some of Ireland's wonderful people. 6. Great company to work with!! Quick replies for our questions. We flew into Dublin a day early & they worked with us to hook up with the tour's airport meet-up on the starting day. Good detail on the itinerary, with more specific timeline provided nearer the tour date. Provided contact info for Harry, in case it was needed. We stayed three days after the tour ended, and Harry still answered a text question. Thanks, My Ireland Tour, for a truly great Irish experience! Julie & Earl (Arizona & Vermont, USA)

My wife and I recently took the Castle Tour. Plain and simple, the tour stacked up to the marketing on the Web site. The accomodations were outstanding, the selection of things to see showed thought and experience. Even such mundane things as rest room stops were well timed and occurrred at interesting places. The motor coach is quite comfortable, with strong wifi present to sync photos, etc. Our driver was knowledgable, affable and charismatic. Our tour highlight might have been the opportunity to ring the bells at Christ Church Cathedral in Dublin. Highly recommended.

We will treasure our memory of Ireland and its people. Thank you for providing this wonderful experience. We will highly recommend My Ireland Tour.

Just returned from the 14 day iconic tour of Ireland which we would recommend very highly for those who want to experience a full tour of Ireland. You get to see so much of Ireland including several places that you can't find on different company tours. The tour was well organized and the home office is extremely prompt about answering any questions and addressing any needs that you may have. Last, our coach driver and tour guide, Ben Sullivan, made the trip extremely enjoyable. Through his knowledge of Ireland and ongoing sense of humor and storytelling, this was one of the best trips we ever had. Many thanks to My Ireland Tour !

October 2022 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
We just returned from a wonderfully organized and executed tour of both Scotland and Ireland. I always wanted to go, but a recent surprising DNA test validated a suspicion. Yep, very close ties to Donegal, Ireland, so we just had to go. Even met a new family member while there. The lodging selections were all great, and some even fantastic castles. The food provided was also good and it was great at the end of a travel day to have the dinner included. Our guide Harry Fisher was on time, knowledgeable, funny, a great driver and had all of our best interests in mind while managing a 14 day tour. He had a wealth of information and history for all of the stops on our itinerary. I learned a lot. He was very diplomatic and had so much class in how information was presented. He told us history and folk lore stories. Was really fun. Occasionally he even sang a tune for us. I picked My Ireland for a more local experience. The tour company planned every detail very well. Buses were clean, comfortable, stops for bio breaks were great, and we all appreciated the thoughtfulness of our host. Highly recommend this tour company! My only suggestion is more salads at dinner. October weather was on the cooler side, but I prefer that to a hot summer. Enjoyed it and will have many great memories to reflect on for years to come. You must go!

We went on the Scotland and Ireland 14 day tour in Oct 2022. There were 24 people on the tour; 23 0f 24 from the USA and 1 from Switzerland. The group was friendly and a lot of fun. The management of the tour was excellent. The My Ireland office was very prompt in their communication and very personable. The hotels arranged for the tour were top notch and the food was great. Our guide was Harry Fisher. He was an excellent driver, especially with the many tight turns for the coach. Harry was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. He knew the history of each area we visited which helped us relate to the sites. Best of all was his humor and his Irish blarney kept us on our toes. We highly recommend this tour company and the 2 country tour.

My Ireland Tours the 10 day tour was such an amazing experience for our first trip to Ireland both my mother and myself! From the hotels to the guided tours we saw everything in Ireland we wanted and more! The hotels were beautiful and great selections and the meals were great as well! Tony our guide for the 10 days was phenomenal with so much knowledge on the history and sites we were seeing, we couldn't ask for a better guide to get around Ireland for our first trip!!! He had wonderful suggestions for places to go to eat/see when we had free time and was always able to answer any questions we had! The group was small with 26 people and not crowded at all. This company is so amazing and I would recommend them to anyone who is venturing to Ireland for the first time!!! It was a trip of a lifetime!

October 2022 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
The entire experience dealing with My Ireland tours was handled professionally and of outstanding quality. The 14-day Iconic trip that we were on allowed us to see the different areas that make the island. As both of us like history the tours of the castles and other historical sites were fascinating. Another facet that My Ireland tours should be proud of is their drivers/tour guide. In our case it was Ben and his knowledge of the history or customs of the various times added to the trip. He did a great job of making sure all the guests were having their needs met. Our group consisted of 26 people, which we felt was close to the perfect size. Another part of the trip we really enjoyed was having the majority of the meals included into the package price (only negative was the dinner menu was basically the same the first four nights, different hotels). Speaking of the hotels, all were of high quality and in good locations to walk the towns if one desired. My Ireland tours would be the website I would check first in planning my next trip to the Emerald Isle, thank you again for a wonderful time.

Our trip was outstanding and made all the better with our driver Tony. From the moment one is picked up at the airport- Ireland's beauty envelopes. The MyIrelandTour company does an amazing job of picking beautiful, historical sightseeing opportunities.Tony adds the history lessons and humor! The hotels, meals and admission to all the sights is so worth the expense. We shopped around and this tour is hands down the best price out there. Make the trip with them. You won't regret it!

Great tour from our driver/guide (Michael), to accommodations to sights seen and experienced. Loved the accommodations (Deluxe Castle Tour), great food, and comfortable bus with onboard wifi and power. Some adaptability such as adding sheep farm/ dog herding demo was a wonderful add. Only 'complaint' (not really :-) )would be wanting more time as there was so much to experience in our time. Got a thorough view of so many parts of the country. Much greater appreciate for the raw beauty that is so much or Ireland. Also, learned more of the history including the mythology that predated Christian times. Highly recommend!

We could not have enjoyed our '10-day Iconic Scenes of Ireland' tour more, it was just so wonderful! Our tour guide was phenomenal, knowledgeable, an excellent driver, humorous and recommended extra activities which we might enjoy at every stop along the way. We completely appreciated the fact that My Ireland Tours partners with family-owned and operated businesses and hotels and supports the small business people all along the route of their tours. We just can't give enough praise for this tour company and our tour guide! We came into the tour with very high expectations/hopes, and the experience far exceeded what we could have imagined.

Kristel O'Connor and My Ireland Tour: Thank you! Our trip from Dublin to Galway to Killarney and back to Dublin was wonderful. Our driver Daniel Gerard Murphy was the major reason for our enjoyment. He understood our interests and adjusted our itinerary as needed. We enjoyed our discussions with Gerard regarding Irish history including our visit to the Kerry Bog Village. Lunch in Leenaun on Killary Harbour, Killarney, the Ring of Kerry, and the sights of Dublin were some of the highlights. Sally Ferguson and Ray Piirainen

Our group of eight just returned from a customized small group tour with driver-guide Peter Kelly. What a fabulous time it was! We not only saw everything we had planned to see, but Peter suggested a few other visits (sheepdog herding, a bog village and one or two other sites) that were extra special. Peter is extremely professional and was very knowledgeable about each and every site we visited throughout our tour. His narration along the way was invaluable. In addition, Peter's flexibility to our needs and his good humor made our trip all the more enjoyable. Very importantly - his driving skills made us feel safe and relaxed at all times throughout our travels. The coach was well appointed with very comfortable and spacious seats and chargers for our phones. The prearranged accommodations were all exceptional. From start to finish the process of dealing with My Ireland Tour Company was top shelf. We feel the trip was a great value for all that we received and have no hesitation in recommending this company to meet anyones travel needs!

My family and I went on the 7-day Historic Irish Castle Tour at the end of September and we all have a wonderful time. The tour was well planned out, the food was delicious, and we captured many beautiful photos. Our driver and tour guide Sean was very professional and accommodating throughout the week. Fortunately, it only rained one day, but I guess it's not a true Ireland experience if there isn't rain (smile). My only two suggestions would be 1) more time at Cliffs of Moher even if just an additional 30 minutes and 2) a dedicated tour for Scotland :-) Thank you, My Ireland Tours!

Tom did an excellent job bringing Ireland to life with his expert driving skills, some roads are not for the faint of heart, and his informative and witty storytelling throughout the tour! Not once did I feel like I was on a “guided coach tour' but instead with a small group of people we quickly became friends with. We would definitely use My Ireland Tours for future excursions! Well done

My husband and I had a wonderful trip. Thomas, our tour guide and bus driver extraordinaire was amazing. I now see which Ireland is called the Emerald Isle. It is beyond beautiful.

We took the 6 day iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. It was great, Raymond our driver was wonderful, the tour sites were perfect and the whole trip was organized and executed very well. The only reason I am not giving 5 stars( I would give it 4.5) is I am not really sure why we spent three of the nights in Limerick City. There is not much night life at all so we spent most nights in the hotel(as did most of the other folks on our tour) Obviously I don't know a lot about the logistics of orchestrating a tour but Limerick does not seem to be the best 'base camp' for the locations we visited from there as they were quite far from the hotel. Since we were such a small group I feel like there could have been better lodging options location wise. Other than that it was a wonderful taste of Ireland, we will definitely return and will use My Ireland tour again.

I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed my recent Castle & Manor house tour (9/10-9/21). First impressions are so important and it began when we first contacted your company in 2019 to book this tour for 2020, you know the rest, Covid postponed it in 2021 as well and finally we made it in 2022. Your staff was always courteous,reassuring,patient & answered our questions on a timely basis. Everything was first class from the accommodations. sightseeing tours, food etc. Tony was our driver/guide and was amazing. His knowledge, humor, stories, driving skills and yes even when he sang made this tour so enjoyable! The beauty of your country is stunning. I'm having a little Ireland withdrawal and hope to visit again soon.

I chose My Ireland Tour because of the value, how everything was included in the cost like meals and tickets, tour size and places visited especially like the stud and b&b farms. What a fabulous time it was! Ben our driver and tour guide was entertaining and full of information and suggestions. He did a great job of looking after us. The places we visited and tours were amazing and I loved seeing so much of the country. The group was a lot of fun and many laughs had. It was truly an amazing 14 days that far exceeded my expectations. Thank you Ben and everyone at My Ireland Tour for the wonderful memories!

October 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
This company supplied a guide/driver for our own itinerary. We traveled throughout most of Ireland and even went to Northern Ireland for a couple of days. The van was very spacious and the driver was knowledgeable of Irish history and would answer many questions we had about life in Ireland. The only gripe we had, was that she had to stop every so often for a break. Sometimes, we would start the day and a short while later she needed to stop. We figured if she needed a rest, it would be while we were visiting a site and not before that. We have never encountered that with tour guides before, so we felt it cut into our travel time. Our journey from one place to another took much longer then we thought, due to the constant stops and the slow speed of the van. There were trucks always passing us on main roads. Otherwise, we accomplished what we wanted to, and we spent a really nice week seeing Ireland.

October 2022 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
My husband Rick and I just returned from the 2-week Scottland and Ireland tour. We had a wonderful time. All hotels except one (Menlo Park) were first rate. Our driver and guide Patrick could not have been more knowledgeable and accommodating. We were exhausted when we returned home because it is fast paced, but we feel we really got a great feel of both countries. A great addition to the tour would be a visit to the Titanic Museum in Belfast. We were disappointed that we did not have the opportunity to visit there. All in all, a 5 star experience!

October 2022 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
Kia ora,My partner and i chose the 10 day iconic sights of Ireland and were not disappointed.10 days seem to be the right amount of time,not to rushed and not too long.Our guide Tom made the tour for us.His manner,knowledge,patience and excellent driving were outstanding.The coach was comfortable and by limiting the numbers to 26,we could spread out in the bus . The motels we stayed in were top notch as was the service.The food generally was very good,especially the full on breakfasts, with the odd meal letting down the otherwise 100%rating. Also helping the enjoyment of the experience were our fellow travellers.What an easy going,convival bunch they were.Good people. The scenery,rugged beauty and historic buildings in Ireland are wonderful to see and we highly recommend this trip and this company.Finally,yes Tom,Ireland did beat the all blacks,here in New Zealand,and well done to them for that,but that does not make you the worlds best rugby team! Thanks again Tom and the my Ireland tour company, Cheers,wayne and erena

I took the 10 Day Iconic Ireland Tour in September and had a fantastic time! Our guide Kieron was pleasant, quite knowledgeable, and a skilled driver. The sightseeing itself was spectacular! And while we covered a lot of ground in 10 days, I never felt rushed. The lodging and meals were first rate. Finally, the pre-trip communications with the My Ireland Tour team were prompt and professional. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tours to anyone!

October 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
My wife, sister, and cousin booked an 8 day tour with 'My Ireland Tours'. We all had a fabulous experience. 'My Ireland Tour' worked with us in preparing our itinerary and ensured we were completely satisfied before we left. They booked us in first class hotels which included a night in the magnificent Lough Eske Castle. Our Driver, Kevin, was very personable and flexible with last minute changes. Kevin was always very professional and had a wealth of information about all our sights. I can't imagine booking an Ireland tour with a different company.

Kevin L. was a wonderful tour guide and driver for all 8 days we toured off the usual trails. We had a remarkable 'cousins' trip to see towns our ancestors came from. Five stars for all hotels, castles, restaurants and of course Kevin! Such a welcoming and beautiful country
Sarah Cooper
October 2022 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
My 10 day iconic Ireland tour was quite enjoyable, especially for my sister, who hadn't been to Ireland. The fact that we stayed 2 nights in each town was a key factor, as we could choose to stay in and skip a tour, if we were so inclined. Our guide, Tom Lavin was excellent and very accommodating which was much needed as our family is older and found it hard to get on and off the bus. Ireland is beautiful, but I'm afraid this will be my last trip; that 10-11 hr. plane ride was horrendous. Planes are too small now and too crowded.

October 2022 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
Would highly recommend this tour. Took the 2 week Iconic Scotland / Ireland tour and was very happy with all aspects of it. We covered a lot of ground; Scotland, Northern Ireland, & the Republic of Ireland. We saw all the major highlights of these areas that would have been hard to see on our own in the same amount of time. Hotels were great and breakfast and dinner was included for each day. Our Tour guide/leader, Paddy, was fantastic. Very knowledgeable in the historical and political aspects of these regions presented the information in a way to make it interesting to all.
Kelvin Rogers
October 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
We did the castles tour, stayed in 2 great castles! Excellent food everywhere, wonderful tours, only raining one day at rock of Cashel but the guide there was fantastic. A shout out to our driver guide Sean, got us through a few tight sqeezes with the bus, and was very informative about Irish history. We highly recommend My Ireland tours and hope to come again!!!!
Mary Oliva
October 2022 • 6 Day Iconic Scenes
I recently returned from the 6 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. Having never been to Ireland before, this was a great introduction and allowed us to see many sites and attractions. Our tour guide, John Dennany was excellent and allowed flexibility with the itinerary. He went out of his way to make sure everyone was happy and taken care of. The hotel accommodations at Hotel Clayton in Dublin and Limerick exceeded expectations. I will definitely be coming back and checking out another My Ireland Tour!
Dennis Knight
October 2022 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
Our expectations were exceeded in almost every respect. Paddy O'Farrell became a friend to all on the tour and provided insight to the history and culture of Scotland and especially Ireland while directing us to the myriad of stunning views and memories of a trip well planned, beginning to end.

I booked a long awaited trip to Scotland and Ireland through My Ireland Tour and it was the best trip ever. I started out in Edinburgh and after touring Scotland for 5 and a half days and then over 8 days throughout Ireland with a great tour guide, Paddy Farrell, I had a great time. I saw castles, even stayed in a couple, ate great food, watched a sheep dog demonstration, Irish dancers, visited beautiful Cathedrals, saw some beautiful countryside! I plan on going back for another tour and highly recommend this company for anyone that want to visit these countries! Thank you My Ireland Tour for a wonderful experience!
Sophie Peterson
October 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
We chose My Ireland Tours after reading the positive reviews and the amazing price and we weren't disappointed. From the time we booked and all communication following their service was exceptional. Then it was time for our tour…We stayed in fabulous hotels and castles, ate delicious food and most of all, visited amazing places. All this was possible due to the expert driving and knowledge of our guide Paddy, he made our trip more interesting with all the information he shared and his ability to drive and park in narrow streets, which at times seemed impossible. Truly the trip of a lifetime. Thank you Paddy and all the My Ireland Tour.
Judy Frank
October 2022 • Custom / Private Tour
We returned from a 5-day, customized, private tour with a fantastic itinerary, which included Kylemore Abbey, Rock of Cashel, and the Cliffs of Moher. Hotels were nice with friendly staff and scrumptious breakfasts. Kevin, our driver, added stops along the way, like sheep herding demo and a trip to Roscommon for us to find Helen's great grandfather and grandmother's gravesite. Having our own driver was the way to go, especially with Kevin who is an excellent storyteller and shared local insights and history. Thank you, My Ireland Tour, for giving us a memorable experience. Judy F. and Helen P.

October 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
This was a thoroughly enjoyable trip, accommodations were extremely comfortable, quite luxurious in fact, and delicious meals. Our guide Tony was very pleasant, professional, good humored and knowledgeable. He insured that everything ran smoothly to optimize our experience. I enjoyed the itinerary, particularly the demonstrations of sheep herding by a shepherd and his dogs, the weaving, crystal cutting and Belleek pottery making, and bell ringing at Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin. Also noteworthy is the Derry city tour hosted by Ronan McNamara. Kylemore Abbey and the Kerry Bog Village visits were also highlights. Tony recommended the Irish Musical show ,which was optional and was a very enjoyable and memorable evening. Well worth attending. There were 26 of us on a comfortable bus . The group was congenial and punctual which certainly is essential to a good trip. We were blessed with glorious weather which also had a very positive impact on our tour. I would highly recommend this trip. My cousin and I are considering repeating it or another with My Ireland Tours.

October 2022 • Custom / Private Tour
To say that our 10 day private tour met our expectations is an understatement. This was the most amazing trip we have ever taken. Every detail was handled to perfection and we did not have to worry about a single thing. I was able to modify our trip to include all of the things I wanted and Shauni made sure that we had every day perfectly planned. Thank you My Ireland Tours!!!

October 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
The Trip of a Lifetime!! We chose My Ireland Tour because of the existing fantastic reviews and we were not disappointed! This was our first ever coach tour and we were not sure of what to expect! This tour and this company exceeded all expectations! Brian Treanor was our driver/guide and we knew from the first moment that we were in skilled hands…a driver extraordinaire, a knowledgeable guide, a comedian, a kind, caring person who ensured we were well cared for and comfortable and who made every day special by going above and beyond!! Did we get what we paid for? Absolutely! In spades! Would we travel with this company again? Absolutely!! We have recommended this company and the 14-day tour to friends and strangers alike who ask about our time in Ireland.
Theron James
October 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
Great experience! Weather was perfect!! Our original guide had a family crisis the day before our tour began but the company scrambled and found our substitute guide Liam, and our driver Eddie and we didn't miss anything! They were both fantastic!!! Liam was full of knowledge about Ireland and went above and beyond to look after our group. He and Eddie were super friendly and both of them were cracking jokes often. It was an incredible tour and I would highly recommend My Ireland Tours.
Palma Eisner
October 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
The castles that we stayed in were AMAZING. The rooms were elegant and spacious and the food was delicious. If you want to do falconry or spa services I suggest that you book ahead on the castle websites. Our group was very friendly and punctual which added greatly to the enjoyment of this tour. The bus was somewhat comfortable because it wasn't full and if no one was behind you, you could recline your seat. The bathroom on the bus wasn't working but we had amble bathroom stops. Toni, our tour guide, was humorous and he taught us songs. However, he showed favoritism to some passengers. Some of our stops were too long and other places we would have preferred a longer stop but this is normal for group tours. All in all, we really enjoyed our tour of Ireland and would recommend this tour.
Jennifer MacLeod
October 2022 • Discover Northern Ireland
My husband and I travelled to Northern Ireland with My Ireland Tours in September 2022. Our driver/tour guide, Garey, provided very concise instructions as well as informative commentary every step of the way. We had two interesting activities every day. While I booked the tour primarily for the Giants Causeway, every part of the trip provided us with fabulous scenery. The drive along the Antrim coast was spectacular. The Step-on Guides in Belfast and Derry were very informative, as they helped us to understand the turmoil in their cities. The travel between each stop was reasonable and we always arrived at our final destination in good time. Having our breakfast and evening meal included in our tour simplified everything. Lunch stops included the Titanic Experience, the Giants Causeway and the Ulster American Folk Park. We cannot praise Garey enough for the way he took charge of our group and his amazing talent for maneuvering the full-size coach. It would have been a far more stressful journey if we had attempted to do it on our own. The ease with which our booking was managed was also great. Kevin kept us posted on the payment deadline and ensured that our arrival and departure information was complete. Although we arrived two days early, he arranged for us to remain in the same room when we joined the tour group. If you haven't been to Ireland before I would highly recommend using My Ireland Tours. Your vacation will be trouble free.

1st rate tour company in Ireland! Our fist time in Europe and this tour company was the best! Starting with this being a family owned company, they were all so attentive to our needs and all of our questions. Our driver Eamon was literally the best! So knowledgeable, funny and we felt like he made our trip so special! Ireland is beautiful, the Irish people were so kind and generous. Plus, we made lifelong friends with people on our tour. It was truly a trip of a trip of a lifetime! Thank you 'MY IRELAND TOUR'.

Just returned from our 10 Day Iconic Scenes Tour and cannot stop sharing the news with friends and family. This was an OUTSTANDING experience, with many wonderful memories. Our bus driver and tour guide extraordinaire, Tom Lavin, was perfect! He was professional, kind, funny and well-informed about the history and customs of Ireland. We enjoyed the trip so much that we are thinking of choosing another route with the same guide!

Second time on a small group tour with this company. They are wonderful. So easy to book, so easy to pay, so easy to enjoy. The office staff is always there to answer any questions before, during or after your tour. Both times the tour guides were so knowledgeable and professional. I highly recommend My Ireland Tours!

This was a fantastic tour of Ireland and would fully recommend it. Our driver/tour guide Tony was so informative and knowledgeable. He was so friendly and polite and his sense houmour was great. He took us to some really great places and we had a wonderful itinerary for 9 days. Our fellow passengers were a great group of people.?We toured the whole of Ireland and saw unspoilt beauty, it is such a beautiful country and would come back again. The hotels we stayed at was more than 5star and the food was amazing. The deluxe Ireland tours are the bestest ever.
Marguerita Riggall
September 2022 • Deluxe Castles Tour
We enjoyed our 10-day Deluxe Irish Castle tour immensely! we had a great overview of the island and the spectacular scenery, the hotels were terrific, and the coach was very comfortable. We had elaborate meals every night with delicious food. Above all , George Connolly, our guide, is a jewel. He is well-informed, courteous, thoughtful and extremely kind. He got us everywhere on time, and displayed a wonderful sense of humor along the way. George is outstanding. We recommend the tour and the My Ireland group as first-rate. The only place which was somewhat disappointing was Dunboyne Castle, our first stop, which was very comfortable, but not exceptional like the other hotels. Glenlo Abbey and The K club are extraordinary and 5-star establishments.

My wife and I took our three married children and spouses on a ten day trip around Ireland celebrating our 50th anniversary. Our driver Brian was beyond our expectations. He was always on time, he was funny and made this trip the most memorable it could be.our accommodations were wonderful and we are sad that the top mark is five stars because it deserved 10 stars. Thank you Kristal for your help making this a trip of a lifetime for my wife and I and our children.

My wife and I highly recommend My Ireland Tour! We particularly enjoyed out tour guide, Harry Fisher, who is kind, knowledgeable and extremely funny. The two week tour included all the highlights of Scotland and Ireland on a lovely roomy air-conditioned coach. The group was small so there was plenty of room on board and the hotels were excellent especially The Loch Eske Castle in Donegal. If you take the tour you will not be disappointed and don't forget to kiss the Blarney Stone!

Best Tour Company in Ireland! This is our second tour with My Ireland Tour. Our first was in 2019 and we were heading back to UK area for a wedding this year and decided to make another trip to Ireland. Eric is great to work with, very accommodating and puts together a great schedule. Both times we did a private tour with 8 people the first time and this time we had 9. The vehicles are very nice, comfortable and spacious. Our driver, David was very friendly and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tour!!!

My husband and I went on the Iconic Scenes of Ireland 10 Day Tour in August. It was undoubtedly the best trip we've ever been on. Our guide, Tom Lavin was kind, funny, and highly informative. He is the best tour guide we've ever had. The tour bus was very comfortable and spacious and we had plenty of breaks along the way. The stops were a mix of beautiful scenery, historic sites and great towns and cities. There was often time to explore on our own. We enjoyed the food everyday, and believe me, there was plenty of it! This was our first trip to Ireland and I don't think it will be our last. I highly recommend My Ireland Tours for your trip to Ireland. The communication emails were excellent beforehand, and we ever had any issues. This was one of the best experiences of our lives.

Returned from our much anticipated 'My Ireland 10 Day Deluxe Castle Tour' the first week of September after two years of cancellations and rebooking. Thank you, to you and your team for all the work you did to facilitate a seamless and incredible trip. We had a grand time and look forward to returning to your beautiful country. Sean was our driver and did an excellent job at not only transferring us safely, but keeping us informed on all the details and history of sites visited. The Castles we stayed in were beautiful and their staffs very accommodating. Our food selections were varied and delicious. Enjoyed several of the Irish Pubs along the way as we would stop in quaint small villages. In addition, we really enjoyed meeting and getting to know our fellow group travelers. We had a great group, many laughs and cherished memories.

Kristel on behalf of our group I want to express our thanks to you and My Ireland Tours for designing a tour to Ireland that was beyond our Wildest dreams. The visit was wonderful, awesome, epic, we can't really find the best adjective to use. It was great!! And Pat Doyle is a real gem. He took us on the back roads, got to sites before the big busses, and added stops based on our conversations. Like a visit to a chocolate factory with taste testing, or stopping by a man making St Bridgett's cross, finding a jewelry store that had St Bridgett's cross pendants, tickets to Killarney's Celtic Dance Show, or a woolen store to buy wool thread!! And pointing out sites for our personal interests, crazy about stone fences, houses and cottages in the countryside, and geological wonders at each stop for our geologist member. Thank you Kristel, and Pat, and My Island tours. We had a great, awesome, wonderful, epic time!

We recently completed our first bus tour and could have not selected a better company then My Ireland Tour to travel with. Our tour took us for 10 wonderful days through Ireland with Tom Lavin as our driver and tour guide. He made our holiday one we will never forget, and we came home with such a better understanding of Ireland past and present. Thanks to all who made our holiday so memorable.

We just returned from the wonderful Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour and must rave about it! It was a trip of a lifetime. Our Tour Director/Driver Harry Fisher is very knowledgeable, fun and accommodating as well as a very skilled driver which we saw firsthand on those hairpin turns. He regaled us with historic facts, stories and tidbits from Edinburgh to Dublin. We highly recommend this tour and Terrific Harry!

My husband and I went on the 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour for our honeymoon and it was an absolute magical experience. Our tour guide was Garey and he was very nice, funny, and knowledgeable about EVERYTHING! Also, my husband gets very bad motion sickness, and Garey was an excellent driver and my husband did not get sick at all. The coach was spacious and had wifi and air conditioning which was appreciated! We had plenty of time at every location, although we occasionally skipped lunch to allow us more time to explore whatever destination we were at for that day! Also the other people on our your were extremely friendly and made the experience even better. We highly recommend this tour as we felt it was worth every penny and had the time of our lives! A trip we truly will never forget. Thanks Garey!

September 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
First, our tour guide, Harry, was top flight. He was full of local history. He drove the bus superbly. He went out of his way to accommodate every request. He was always on time. He was friendly and, at the end of every day, checked to make sure that everyone had a good day and made certain that we all knew what the evening's and next day's schedules were. Second, there was a wide variety of activities from sightseeing overviews of the various cities and tours of landmarks to time spent driving the scenic byways and stops for learning about bog village life, distillery and beer brewing processes, glass making, and the Irish immigrant story at EPIC, among other things. When we were placed in the hands of a local guide to show us a particular site, he or she was always knowledgeable and engaged. Third, the accommodations ran from above average to superb. The food was always good. The menu selections were limited but there was always something for everyone. The hotel and restaurant staffs were always attentive and accommodating.

September 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
Getting to sample a number of various cities/town/counties in Ireland was very beneficial to understanding the culture and dynamic nature of its history. We had plenty of time to effectively capture the people, sounds and flavors at each stop. Our bus driver (Eamonn Broderick) was a wealth of knowledge regarding the countries history, culture and each cities uniqueness. To say he was a total Professional is an understatement.

I enjoyed my 10 day tour with the my Ireland tour group, it was amazing seeing many of the beautiful country!

We recently spent two weeks touring parts of Scotland and Ireland with the my Ireland tour group. We had a private car and driver for the entire trip. The driver was excellent polite efficient and had a great personality. The places chosen to to go to work wonderful and very enjoyable. The trip was efficiently put together with great feedback opportunities. The local guides which were at various points of the trip were generally excellent. The hotels were variable depending on where we were located some were excellent and some were good. We Had a great time and would recommend them to anyone considering a visit to Scotland or Ireland.

Due to Covid our planned trip to Ireland via 'My Ireland Tour' was postponed for two full years. Finally this September we said it was time to go and and we experienced one of the absolute best times using 'My Ireland Tour'. Accommodations, food sights and scenery were fantastic. The tour bus only allowed for 26 people so we could all space out and not feel cramped together. Our tour guide Eamonn was one of the highlights of our experience. His knowledge, wit and humor made our trip memorable. Kudos to 'My Ireland Tour' and to Eamonn for making the two year wait worth while!

What a fantastic 10-day tour of Ireland! Thank you to My Ireland Tour for creating such a well-organized and enjoyable tour, from the itinerary (well-paced and diverse) to the hotel accommodations and meals. My favorite kind of vacation, where I only need to show up and the rest is taken care of. Special thank you to Tom Lavin, our tour guide and driver, who made the visit especially fun and memorable. Lastly, thank you to everyone on the tour bus - it was a great experience to share with you all.

Having been on other tours, I can say this one is absolutely 5 stars. Our tour guide Sean was first class all the way; he is a fantastic historian with a near photographic memory, it seems. All the accommodations were terrific; they go above and beyond, truly giving you your money's worth.

I have never been on a tour of any description before but a friend of mine his Irish wife suggested that to do what I wanted to do I should book myself a seat on a coach tour, so the on the last day of May 2021 I booked myself on a My Ireland Tour (14days) for August this year. Did I get value for my money you bet I did Hotels were excellent Meals were superb Attractions visited well thought off Driver/ Guide Gaery the absolute best I have never been treated the way I and my fellow 25 travellers were before I felt like royalty. I'm already thinking of doing something similar next year location not sure possibly the United States Once again My Ireland Tours many many thanks

September 2022 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
We thoroughly enjoyed our 14 day trip through Ireland!! John B. was our bus driver and tour guide. I Loved every stop that we made and every tour that we went on. The tour guides were wonderful and informative! (especially the Bushmill's guide and Jerry Linn in Derry). The sheep herder was so interesting too! The Ulster Folk Museum was great!! John played Irish music on the bus and explained a lot of Irish History. This was one of the best tours ever!! I highly recommend it to others!
Cindy Strickler
September 2022 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
I am so happy that I found My Ireland Tours and booked the 10 day iconic scenes trip with family! We saw and experienced so much and still had a little free time each day. Such a diverse itinerary and surprises each day. The small coach was comfortable and spacious. Our accommodations were lovely other than a few had no air condition. Tolerable but warm a few nights. Open windows and fans available. Food was delicious and 2 great lunches, but dinners did get repetitive. Awesome dinner/show at Merry Ploughboy near Dublin. Can't say enough about our driver/guide Tom Lavin! He made it special and personable with his knowledge, expertise and kindness. You can tell he loves his country and it's people and enjoyed sharing it all with us. Certainly made me want to return. PS Special shout out to Shannon in the home office who went above and beyond ;)

September 2022 • Custom / Private Tour
After reading the many positive reviews, I decided to go with My Ireland Tours, and working with their travel coordinator, Shannon O'Brien, confirmed that I made the right choice. Shannon always responded promptly to my inquiries and listened to what I wanted in planning our private tour. She incorporated our must-see list into an itinerary that allowed us to move at a comfortable pace with overnight stays that included a couple of Ireland's renowned castles! Certainly one of the fondest memories of our tour will be our guide and driver, Padraig McGuire (arranged by Shannon through Barrett's Coaches). He was knowledgeable and yet personable, giving us an appreciation of the Irish people and their culture. I can't imagine our visit to Ireland without Padraig's friendly guidance and his sense of humor. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tours to our family and friends!

We took the 14 day 14-Day Discover Scotland & Ireland on August 27-September 9, 2022 that a friend discovered and had booked for themselves. Upon researching this tour, we were so impressed with the small tour size, all the cities and places we would visit, and the quality of the hotels that we tried to book it for our 40th wedding anniversary only to learn that it, and all others this summer, were fully booked! Luckily for us, we got a phone call from Shannon to advise that they had just had a cancellation on the tour we had originally wanted to book! The week prior to the tour we received an email with our detailed tour itinerary which I took with me. I found this document very useful and read it every evening to familiarize myself with where and what we would be doing the following day. Regretfully, the distillery promoted on their website was changed to a very new one and while we learned about the making of their whiskey there was no sampling. The hotels were all 4 star or better. A number didn't have individual room air conditioning but thank goodness their windows did open and fans were provided which made sleeping temperatures more comfortable. Why all European hotels use heavy duvets in the summer is a mystery as the rooms are too warm for them. The food was fantastic and plentiful with dinners all being 3 courses. Our daily dinner menus provided 2 appetizer choices, 3 entrees, and a couple of desserts and all featured local fare. My husband is allergic to onions and the staff knew what dishes contained them and where possible were able to eliminate from the dish he ordered or suggest an alternate dish. The days were long which we expected given the distances covered and the activities and sights included. Dinners were generally around 7pm with a few at 8pm. I took a supply of Power Bars which I was glad to have as there were no coffee breaks or places to buy snacks. Our driver, Paddy, offered to buy us tickets to Celtic Steps, an Irish dance and music show being held nearby. The show was fantasic! We really enjoyed the Traditional Music Night and dinner at the Merry Ploughboy Pub in Dublin area. Service was excellent as was the quality of the food and entertainment. We highly recommend My Ireland Tours and wouldn't hesitate to book another one with them.

We loved the 10-day deluxe Irish Castles tour. There are a number of factors why this tour is a wonderful tour for anyone who wants to enjoy the beauty and history of Ireland in comfort and style. First, the tour includes so much more than similar length tours at the same or higher price point. We considered and researched numerous other options and none really seemed to come close. It is simply an excellent value for the level of amenities, quality and luxury provided. Second, the hotels, all 4 or 5-star, are each unique and ever so comfortable. In particular we loved Lough Eske Castle, Glenlo Abbey hotel, Cahernane House and the of course The K-Club (the grand finale). These hotels are certainly among the top hotels in all of Ireland. Third, the food on the tour was amazing with a full Irish breakfast and a variety of upscale choices available each morning, and a near gourmet 3-course dinner each night. The other tours we looked at were nowhere near the number of meals included, nor the quality. Last, our tour bus driver, George, was absolutely fantastic. Friendly, ever so knowledgeable, and a student of history, he engaged with us all along the way. With George as our guide, we were able to make the most of each day and learn all about Irish history from the neolithic period to the present day. George made a great tour even better. We will recommend My Ireland Tours, and this tour in particular, to all of our friends!

If you want to see a great representation of everything Ireland has to offer, you can't do better than My Ireland Tour! Our guide was Tony and he was terrific, making us feel welcome in this beautiful country right from the start. The tour itself was an amazing blend of culture, history, nature and fun! It was a perfect blend of scheduled tours and time to explore on our own. I have already recommended this tour to many of my friends and family! Thank you for making my first experience in Ireland so wonderful and memorable!

I just came back from the 14 day Scotland & Ireland tour and can't say enough about it. The company handled all of the accommodations, reservations and tours flawlessly. We had a fun group and Paddy our tour guide was the best! Each day was action packed so be prepared for a lot of walking. The hotel accommodations and castles were fun to explore as well as the meals. You do have free time in the late afternoon or after dinner to explore on your own. I came in a day ahead which was helpful to get acclimated before the tour started. Others added a day or two at the end. I know there's no way I would've been able to see everything had I done this on my own. Overall, I can't say enough about the experience and the company. Great communication throughout the entire process. Thank you Shauni and Paddy for an awesome and memorable vacation!!!

This was my first European experience; the 10 day iconic Ireland tour, far exceeded my expectations. Every stop was amazing, even the weather! Tony, our tour guide, was absolutely fantastic; he was a great story teller, historian and yes, even a singer. He was engaging every step of the way; the itinerary was clearly reiterated daily; we knew exactly what to expect and were provided tips along the way as well. The tour packed in so many sites, but still allowed us free time to explore the beautiful cities. A few surprise stops were added along the way. The locals were so friendly-- I can not say one negative thing about this trip!! It is highly recommended.

We just returned from the Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour and it definitely met our expectations. This was our first bus/coach tour and it provided us with visits to so many amazing sites. The accommodations were first rate, the meals were very good, and the itinerary was superb. Our guide/driver, Paddy, was excellent. He went above and beyond on many occasions for us, for others in need of specific help, and for the entire group by adding extra stops along the way. He was very knowledgeable, pleasant, and entertaining. The specialty tour guides were also very informative and friendly. We also enjoyed meeting the other guests and felt like a family at the end of the tour. We highly recommend this tour!

I cannot recommend My Ireland Tour more. We just came back from the 10 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland and it was phenomenal. The company was wonderful to work with from the time of booking through the end - very responsive and helpful. Our tour guide, Tony, was fantastic - he told us stories, sang Irish songs with us and made sure every stop was enjoyable and informative. The accommodations were great and the tour bus was clean, comfortable and roomy. I look forward to touring with this company again!

September 2022 • Deluxe Castles Tour
We were on the Deluxe Castle tour in June 2022. This was hands down the best trip I have ever been on. Our tour guide Tom L. was the absolute best, everyday he gave us history about the different areas we were in and added little stops of his own along the way. He even gave everyone a map of Ireland and outlined the route we took on our tour. The accommodations were amazing, from the cleanliness of the rooms to the friendliness of the staff, I had zero complaints. I was very impressed with how well everything was planned out, we were able to see some much of the county on our 10 day tour and even had several opportunities to explore on our own. The tour was so lovely, I honestly didn't want to leave and would have flown my kids over and stayed in Ireland forever if my husband would have let me! We will definitely visit Ireland again and will be using My Ireland Tour for another incredible experience!

Took the 10 day tour. Our guide/driver Tom is AMAZING!!! He's so nice and so funny!! The tour was well planned and well organized. I learned lots of interesting history and stories about Ireland from Tom. He even gave us a little good bye gift with map marked with places we went to and some local chocolate. Tom is the best!! Had a great time!! Highly recommend the tour!

September 2022 • Deluxe Castles Tour
Our Ten Day Castle Tour was above and beyond wonderful!!! What an amazing Tour company!! We didn't have to worry about ANYTHING! From the beginning with our driver/guide, Pat Pendergast picking us up at the airport and accompanying and guiding us so pleasantly through every Castle, every meal , and every tour to taking us back to the airport at the end, no convenience was overlooked! Our bags were handled from the bus to our room and back with every single move. The castles were magnificent in grandeur as well as well appointed. The meal choices were outstanding. The tours were so encompassing. We learned so very much about the beautiful country of Ireland. When booking a tour in another country, going only by the website and reviews, I feel we struck gold!!! I would HIGHLY recommend My Ireland Tours !! I can't say enough good things about them.

We thoroughly enjoyed our Deluxe Castles tour. There were only 15 of us so it was great having a small group. Everyone was very friendly and very nice. Pat our tour guide/bus driver was FABULOUS. Extremely knowledgeable, helpful and just great overall. The Tour was great. With just a little rain at the beginning. The accommodations were over the top. Would definitely recommend MIT.

Before I get into the tour itself we would like to express our gratitude for the customer support from My Ireland Tours. We were postponed in 2020 due to Covid and My Ireland offered us the opportunity to get our deposit back or keep it for 2021, which was also postponed till 2022 with all the same fees and no increases. Glad we chose to move it till 2022. That in itself meant so much to us and showed how important your company treats their customers. Customer support is top notch. All our emails dealing with Eric over the 3 years were great - thank you. The tour itself started off meeting our Tour Director Austin Mcardie. Austin was amazing. His knowledge of Ireland from county to county, his hospitality, and his driving expertise was what made the trip fantastic. We enjoyed everything about Ireland with the help of My Ireland Tours plus only having 26 incredible people on the bus was a bonus. My only concern was the last day of the tour. We went to Epic Museum , Christ Church Cathedral, and Guinness, then our final supper at night. This made for a very compressed day and hard to enjoy those 3 places due to a time crunch. All in all we would do this again and highly recommend it to anyone interested in Ireland .

September 2022 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
Our dream vacation was over and above our expectations. We were on the 10 day Scenic Tour. This company was very easy in setting up trip. Communications were prompt. Our tour guide/bus driver, Tony was a wealthy of information about the 'troubles' and history of Ireland. He has a beautiful voice. We all enjoyed his songs and stories. He made the trip special. The sites we visited were breathtaking like the Cliff's of Moher, The Ring of Kerry, the Irish countryside. We enjoyed the Keltic Crystal Factory, The Chocolate Factory, Jameson distillery, the little towns along our way, particularly, Cobh. The final night we attended a dinner & show The Merry Ploughboy Pub. Dinner was delicious and the Irish music & dancers were phenomenal. The last two hotels we did not like. They were clean but staff unfriendly. Meals were repetitive. Every night it was mashed potatoes and root veggies. That got old quick. Breakfasts were very good. You had a wide variety of options. Overall, we would rate this trip and company An A+. Tony gets an A+++. As they say in Ireland, hope to see you again!

My Ireland Tours from start to finish provided us with with 5 Star planning, accommodations, fare and transportation. I had a trip of a lifetime because of this. We told them what we wanted and they nailed it all. My heartfelt thanks to all involved, especially to Kristel O'Connor for her travel insight and customer service.
Jen Elliott
September 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
We were very, very disappointed in this Castles tour. It consisted of mostly being in a bus from 9 to 6 on bad roads. The driver was very nice but he was not a guide and usually did not go into any sites. We were told the bathroom in the bus was for emergency only. We did stay in two castles, one that was not set up for travelers, ie, tiny or moldly rooms. It was an hour and a half from anywhere. The other was Abbeyglen which was FABULOUS. it appears this company just outsources a driver/bus so doesn't really plan much but staying in two castles two nights. The Rock of Cashel was outstanding due to the guide there.

I took the six day iconic tour of Ireland with Brian as our driver & guide. Brian was an excellent driver on the narrow roads along the Ring of Kerry. He added history & local knowledge to the tour to ensure we learnt about Ireland and its people on the journey. Some days were long but always enjoyable and we were blessed with sunny weather for the whole tour. I would highly recommend this company for travelling in Ireland.

This was our first coach tour holiday and so we were a bit unsure of what to expect. We needn't have worried as it turned out to be a fantastic holiday with wonderful memories. We visited so many beautiful places, many of which have already been mentioned in previous reviews. The guests travelling with us came from various countries, which made it very interesting and we all got on so well. Our driver/guide Brian T made the trip so very interesting and special, he became a good friend to all the group inside the two weeks that we were travelling together. We would like to thank him so much for making our holiday so memorable. He was very knowledgeable and friendly and caring. Brian even managed to smooth things over when one of our group set the fire alarms off by accident! The hotels were good as was the food. All in all it was a fantastic holiday and we would 100% recommend My Ireland Tours to anyone wishing to visit Ireland.

What an amazing tour company! We had the visit to Ireland of a lifetime, thanks to Shauni and our driver, David Breen. So much to see and experience. The castles were amazing as well as the meals!!! This is truly 5 Star tours! Thank you again for our great Ireland adventure!

September 2022 • 6 Day Iconic Scenes
My father has always wanted to see Ireland (me too), so we booked the 6-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour and had an absolutely wonderful time. Our driver was Brian Rawlings and was the star of the tour. This man was hilarious, an excellent driver (those roads are narrow!), and extremely passionate about Ireland's history and people. If I entered an Irish trivia competition I would decimate everyone with the knowledge that Brian bestowed upon me. I was debating renting a car and touring the island on our own, but I'm glad I went with the bus tour. Everything was handled for us and it allowed us to lean back and truly enjoy the experience. Hotels were perfect, food was amazing. Be prepared for a bit of walking if you're not used to that. It's good for ye. I can't recommend My Ireland Tour enough. If you're on the fence, buy the tickets and you won't be disappointed.

Ron and I would highly recommend Ireland Tours! Our driver/guide was Enda. He was informative, caring and funny. We enjoyed Enda as much as we enjoyed the beautiful landscapes he took us to. We had a rough start at the Dublin airport. Had to wait 2 1/2 hours for our luggage. Enda soon made us forget our troubles by taking us to a quaint pub in the middle of nowhere. Ron and I consider Enda a true friend and we wish him all the best and many blessings. Hope to see him again someday. SLAINTE!! Your new friends, Ron & Diana

Our family of four took the 14-day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour and added a private 3-day extension tour to see the area where my grandmother grew up. The whole experience was wonderful, and made exceptional by the drivers/guides, Sean O'Sullivan for the group tour, and Geoffrey McConnell for the private extension. Both were very capable and knowledgeable and went out of the way to see that our needs were taken care of. The group tour covered a great deal of the country, with a variety of sights, scenes, and historical places. You cannot experience everything worth seeing of the Emerald Isle in 14 days, but this tour does a great job of hitting the highlights. Our driver and guide Sean shared his vast knowledge of the history and culture of Ireland and made the trip very enjoyable. Geoffrey, our driver and guide on the private tour, took initiative to try and locate cemeteries where my great grandfather may have been buried, as he understood the purpose of our private trip. We highly recommend My Ireland Tour!

I thank my lucky stars that I chose My Ireland Tour to fulfill my long held dream of visiting Ireland. Ireland and its people were as amazing and wonderful as one always hears. But this Tour led by its driver/guide, Tom Lavin, was exceptional. Well organized, very informative, superb destinations, nicely paced, high quality accomodations and meals… it was a priceless experience. Tom's passion for his country and his unbelievable breadth of knowledge about it made for a tour I will never forget.

Beautiful top of the line accommodations! Great scenery. This is a classy operation. We loved our tour Guide, George. He was so accommodating. We had been traveling for 3 months so we had more luggage than the porters would handle in the hotel. So George arranged so we could store extra luggage on the bus. Also, there were several people on the trip who kept leaving personal items behind such as rings and purses. George ensured that other tour guides in the area were able to retrieve the items and then we picked them up at the next stop. What a great experience!!

September 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
Wonderful trip & Michael was a great tour leader. Trip was all I could hope for, history, beautiful sights, comfortable roomy bus, high quality accommodation - though at times lots of walking to get to rooms - I suppose this can be expected when you get to stay in a castle! Meals good, only suggestion would be to possibly make days a little shorter to avoid rush to meet dinner times. Nothing was too much trouble for Michael, he was always well prepared for the day & despite some challenging situations he maintained a friendly, professional attitude throughout the entire trip Lots of jokes & excellent camaraderie. Thoroughly recommend the trip

We took the six day tour of southern Ireland with George as our driver / guide. This tour was very well organised and George was excellent in providing history, local knowledge and he went the extra mile in making sure we all had a good time. I would highly recommend this company for travelling in Ireland and we hope to return in the near future to see more of this beautiful country!

We enjoyed our Ireland tour immensely, lover the castle accommodation and dropped two day excursions to enjoy the luxury facilities eg massage jacuzzi golf. We thought the driving was a bit long a couple of days even though our driver Colm tried to keep us entertained with his vast knowledge of the land and history. They do talk a bit funny though like you don't say 'yes' you respond with 'I'. We recommend My Ireland Tour and our driver/guide Colm.

September 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
Our visit to Ireland was fantastic due to the great planning of My Ireland Tour. We had a wonderful time, made many memories seeing the points of interest that Ireland is well known for. Our driver/tour guide, Tony, was phenomenal! He was most personable, humorous and shared in-depth knowledge about Irish history. Also, quite skilled at driving the tour bus on the many narrow roads. The tour bus was comfortable with plenty of room to spread out. All the hotel accommodations were comfortable, the breakfasts were hearty with a variety of food selections, the dinners were complete from starters to dessert. You did not leave the table hungry. The group of people on the tour soon became friends. By the end of the trip e-mail addresses were exchanged. We are looking forward to our next trip, it will be My Ireland Castle Tour. Thank you My Ireland Tour for making our trip to Ireland most memorable.

This was our first trip to Scotland and Ireland, and I don't think we could have selected a better tour company than MyIrelandTour. Our driver/tour guide Mike was outstanding throughout the tour. Mike, being from Dublin had a vast amount of knowledge regarding Ireland as well as Scotland. He made the 14 day tour go by too fast!!! In regard to our tour package, out hotel accommodations, dinners and breakfasts were 5 star. The various attractions and sites that we stopped at were all historical and beautiful. If you plan on visiting Scotland or Ireland or both, I highly recommend that you consider MyIrelandTour!!!!

My family and I took the 10 day Ireland tour staying in castles and manor homes all the way. What a great trip and tons of fun. Only 14 on the bus so there was plenty of room to spread out. Colum our tour guide was wonderful and extremely knowledgeable . It was a good pace and we did cover a lot of territory with beautiful scenery along the way. Mid week we were able to visit the village of Cong (on our own) to visit where they filmed The Quiet Man,and we didn't miss any of the tour. I highly recommend this trip. We had a great bunch of people on this trip so it made it all so memorable .

September 2022 • Ancient Ireland Tour
We just got back from a 7 day tour of Irish Castles, and we had such a wonderful time. Our guide Phillip was truly the highlight of the trip, just a truly fun wonderful person to be around, dedicated to making sure everybody had a good time. We all loved sitting with him at breakfast peppering him with questions about life in Ireland. This tour took us through picturesque landscapes to see cool castles, ride on a boat, tour beautiful walled gardens, taste a bunch of beverages, watch an awesome show, and poke around in all the shops. And I love how Phillip really knew each of these attractions backwards and forwards, and was able to give us the best tips about how to have the best experience. ('OK, so we need to be back at the bus at 2:30. You want to tour the abbey and the chapel, but you might not need to do the hike to the masoleum, you can eat lunch either at the tea house or the main restaurant but the main restaurant has better options...') The food was amazing. Not a meal where I wasn't confused about what fork to use. And my favorite part was waking up early to walk the trails around the hotel, and just soak in the countryside. Absolutely would recommend all my friends and relatives take this tour.

August 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
Our six-day tour of Ireland was the best travel adventure of my life!!! Absolutely the best! The itinerary ticked off so many places we wanted to see in Ireland. The pace was brisk . . . but, it had to be in order to fit so many places in. Best of all was our tour guid/driver, George. He truly cared about every single person on board and how they were doing. He was extremely professional is how he carried out his responsibilities. George managed each and every day and every single stop so well. It helped keep us on track and that allowed us to do more. We were a little skeptical about signing on for a tour (we usually manage everything ourselves); however, this tour allowed us to gaze out the window and take in the beautiful scenery while someone else dealt with the twisty and turning roads. We never had to think about parking. If the cost of the tour only covered transportation I would have been a satisfied customer . . . but, this provided so much more. Comfortable hotel accommodations, travel information, history of Ireland, and much much more! We couldn't be happier with our experience!

We did the 10 Day Iconic Tour of Ireland. What a treat! Never been on a tour before. Our guide was Austin. Warm hearted, full of jokes, and information about where we were visiting. He even had some 'Secret' places he stops. One was a Chocolate factory, out in the middle of no where, but on our way to somewhere! The scenery of Ireland is so different than anything in the USA. Fuchsias up and over the bus on some of the roads....The hotels were great, the food very nice, people warm and friendly. A Tour for anyone wanting and introduction to Ireland. Thank you so much, Austin and My Ireland Tour

We traveled as a family of four, from ages 30 to 70, and we whole heartedly would recommend this tour. Our guide, Pat Prendergast, was wonderful, informative and an excellent coach driver. Very happy with our lovely tour of Ireland and we felt we got to see many beautiful locations along the way.

What an amazing 10 days with Tony, our delightful & caring tour guide & driver. He was funny, charming, entertaining, a walking encyclopedia, kind & flexible. He never failed to check with each of us constantly to ensure we were comfortable and well taken care of. This tour was so comprehensive and thorough. We had a delay at the crystal factory and had very little time in Adare (which I had become very enamored with 4 yrs ago), but visiting Cong was right up there on my bucket list & I'm so grateful to Tony for that experience. I knew this would be the right tour for me and my best friend, and I was absolutely right!!

We had an amazing time in Ireland for the 10 day tour. Our tour guide, Austin, was very knowledgeable and accommodating. He loves his country and it shows! The tour is quite the whirlwind, there is so much to see and do. It's so nice that everything is already planned, from food to accommodations, to all the awesome excursions, yet you still have free time built into the schedule. We met great people on tour with us and had fun nights out with new friends. I would definitely recommend this tour!

The castle stays were fabulous - beautiful grounds, gourmet food, excellent service. The K Club was the poshest, most luxurious hotel we've ever stayed in - and we've stayed in hundreds. Our guide George greatly enhanced our trip with his boundless knowledge. All in all, truly a five star experience.

Best tour ever! Paddy our guide and driver added many interesting stops not listed on the itinerary. Stopping every hour or two made it stress free. Highly recommend this company as they quickly responded to a multitude of questions I emailed before we arrived. Our Scotland and Ireland trip was a trip everyone should have on their bucket list. Amazing and welcoming people throughout the trip.

We have just returned from our 14 day tour and have had an amazing trip. The hotels were of a high standard with no lengthy check ins. Cases were unloaded and reloaded for us every time. Three choices for starter and main courses at each meal. Food was generally very good. Breakfast was usually buffet style and had plenty of choice.The tour itself was excellent and took us to a huge variety of places to suit everyone on our bus. Our driver/guide Garry was very knowledgeable and was very patient and helpful.I would thoroughly recommend this tour to anyone wanting a full Irish experience.

We organized a private tour with My Ireland Tour for our 3 generation family of 8 using one of their 9 pasenger vans with guide/driver Michael Coleman. Everything worked out perfectly- Michael was prompt, courteous, very knowledgeable and went out of his way to make sure we had a great experience. The hotel selections were excellent- always centrally located and Michael picked wonderful lunch stops and made very appropriate recommendations for evening dining. We were worried the van would be cramped for tall party members but it worked out great- lots of legroom, very comfortable with onboard wifi and usb ports. All in all a great experience and a very memorable trip! We would highly recommend My Ireland Tour and the services of Michael and Eric O'Gorman= our main contact with the company

August 2022 • Ancient Ireland Tour
Absolutely perfect trip! Our driver, David Breen, was so great and knowledgeable! Loved his quick wit! The hotels exceeded our expectations! My favorite was the Cahernane House hotel in Killarney! We did the 8 Day ancient Ireland/ Ring of Kerry small group tour and it was the perfect mix of fun and we received an awesome Ireland education! Trip highlights: Kylemore Abbey (stunning), Waterford Crystal ( so interesting) and Ballynahinch Castle ( beautiful room and dining experience). Would highly recommend My Ireland Tours to everyone!🍀

The Blarney Stone but no Blarney! We were first timers on this tour and very impressed. As someone of Irish parentage I was worried the tour might turn out an artificial 'touristy' experience but was very pleased - I felt we had an authentic taste of Ireland and our guide Pat was lovely, knowledgeable and organised. Hotels were excellent and we saw a lot of Ireland. All in all a great holiday.
Isabel Piscopo
August 2022 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
The Ireland and Scotland tour was superbly organised and I was very satisfied with all of it. The guide was always present and informative. The accomodation was all very good. In my opinion, this almost perfect tour could be made even more perfect with a one day extension in Belfast and most people on the tour also commented on it. This would have meant that we could have visited the Titanic exhibition which most people wished to visit. It would also have meant that the following day we could have left for Giant's Causeway earlier and arrived at Lough Eske Castle in early afternoon instead of at 6.30. This is such a stupendous place and has so many amenities we would have all wished to have had more time for . Sometimes the dinner timing was changed to an earlier time and while this might have suited clients from the USA it did not really suit us from Europe who are used to dining much later. It meant rushing to get ready for dinner after a long drive and the evening just ended earlier. On the whole, I was very pleased and am thinking of taking a different trip with the same company in the future, perhaps a more luxurious one in some of the great accomodations they offer. I would recommend the company to anyone.

August 2022 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
We went on the 10 day icon Ireland tour. Firstly, our tour guide Austin McArdle was absolutely phenomenal. The knowledge and passion he has for his country was impressive he made us all feel like family. The island itself was breathtaking and we were blessed with amazingly sunny weather. I loved the fact that the Irish people maintain their history in their castles, forts and churches. Seeing rock walls through out the countryside that were built and maintained by families for centuries. You can feel the history that runs deep with passion and love of country at ever stop and every local you speak to. I would highly recommend this company and this or any of their tours. Thank you Austin for an unforgettable experience with memories will last a lifetime.

I highly recommend touring with My Ireland Tours. We did the 8 person van, 8 days and 7 nights Ancient Ireland Ring of Kerry tour. Accommodations were above expectations (5 star ) Tour covered 2/3rds of meals and were exceptional (5 Star) Tour guide/drive (David Breen) was very knowledgeable and friendly. Great sense of humor and excellent resource. (I cannot say enough about David) Unlike some tours, this one did not feel like a marathon. We saw a lot, but we also had plenty of down time to explore the little towns/pubs on our own. Everything was well planned and smooth.

As first-timers to Ireland, we are beyond impressed with the 6-day tour. We were able to see so much in a short amount of time. Pat was our guide and he was amazing! Can't wait to visit again!

Finally got to take our 2020 covid trip to Ireland. This company was really helpful to get us postponed and then refunded and then re-booked throughout. Once we finally got there our small personal genealogy tour through the non-touristy parts of Ireland was fantastic. Ken was our guide and he was fun, knowledgeable and flexible. The Leslie Castle was new for this tour and well worth the stop, 4 star Michelin meal. Overall, so glad we finally got there and would use this company again and again!!

Fantastic experience with My Ireland. Our driver Peter was excellent. The hotels and restaurants were very good. This company pays close attention to the important details and delivers what they promise. I would highly recommend. We had 9 family members on our tour and each and every one of us give My Ireland a 5 star rating.

August 2022 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
In July 2022 we were lucky to explore Ireland with the My Ireland 14-day Iconic Scenes Tour. Great tour! Our guide and driver, Sean, was THE BEST! His historical and personal insights and stories made Ireland a special place. Sean always gave plenty of photo and rest stops along the way, even when we had a long bus day. Sean treated everyone with respect and patience and had a wonderful sense of humor. He watched out for everyone and drove that bus so well you would think it was a compact car! We felt safe with Sean at the helm. The bus was very comfortable and even had wi-fi. The hotels were comfortable with good service. Dinners could have had more variety – better yet - have some dinners out at local pubs/restaurants/homes. Eric and Shannon were so responsive, patiently providing email answers and help prior to the trip – above and beyond the call of duty!

We really had a wonderful time on our tour. We did the small group Ancient Ireland via Ring of Kerry tour, and David O'Neill was our guide. He was super knowledgeable, a great story teller, and hilarious. He was also very timely and a safe driver. We really enjoyed all the stops, learned a lot, and made a lot of wonderful memories. I would highly recommend, without reservation, doing a tour with this company.

My husband and I went on the 14 day tour of Ireland. This was our first time visiting Ireland. We had a wonderful time. Our tour guide Austin was incredible. He was informative, funny, caring, and made sure every day was special! Not to mention he was also an amazing driver! The sites were breathtaking. The history was moving and will stay with us forever. The Irish people were the nicest people we have ever encountered anywhere in the world. We saw and experienced things that we will never forget. We highly recommend this trip.

August 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
Definitely 5 Stars, from beginning to end. I corresponded first with Shauni and then with Eric to arrange everything and it was all perfect. I asked the rest of the group, my siblings and 2 nieces, for their opinions also and here are a few of their answers: It couldn't have been better, covered so much more that I imagined. The accommodations were first class, the intermittent stops that were added to our major requests were all terrific We didn't feel any pressure to hurry, could stroll at our own pace and still get to everything. Loved Springview House and Eileen! Enjoyed our walk with Vincent by the beach. And of course Raymond! He was informative, patient, accommodating - just the most fantastic! Our only regret is just booking for 6 days instead of 10. We just booked for 6 because John couldn't stay longer but we could have dropped him at the airport and just kept going. And of course we would have wanted that to be with Raymond. Loved the whole thing and if ever we can get back to Ireland or Scotland again we will certainly contact My Ireland Tour! We all think you are just wonderful!

August 2022 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
We just returned from the 14-day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour (July 23 to August 5, 2022). We could not be happier. The hotels and meals provided by the company were all 4-star hotels and the food excellent. We got breakfast and dinner each night and two included lunches. The hotels were located in center of the cities allowing for exploring at the end of the day if you still had the energy after a full day of site seeing and exploring the local attractions. Our tour guide-driver Austin McArdle was outstanding. His knowledge of Irish history and sense of humor made the drives between locations short and educational. Clearly one of the best tour guides I have experienced. The group only consisted of 26 people on a bus that could hold nearly double allowing everyone to get to know each other. We made several new friends. If you are visiting Ireland for the first time, I would highly recommend this company. Their website offers numerous options. The company is a pleasure to deal with as well. This tour was initially booked in 2020 but due to Covid had to be postponed twice. On each occasion we were offered a choice to push our deposit forward or get a full refund. I am so happy I choose to push it forward. Eric O'Gorman from the company was a pleasure to work with.

We had a wonderful time on our tour of Scotland and Ireland. The accommodations exceeded our expectations and the food was awesome. The tour itself offered a variety of sights and activities. Our only complaint is that we didn't have enough time at each place. We now have more reasons to go back! Our tour driver (Paddy)was I woboth knowledgeable and flexible. Our family would definitely use this t his your company again.

Absolutely everything about this tour was amazing. It was literally a new adventure every day. Our guide doubled as a History Professor with incredible knowledge of every area we explored. The scenery was stunning and can't wait to go back!
Natalie Marionneaux
August 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
Ireland was great. Got to see ALOT. BUT... Bus driver/guide - not so much. Did not introduce himself to the bus, welcome or give us an intro on anything at start of tour. Was more like a drill sergeant around time (which I understand schedules are important; but it was his manner). Never reviewed schedule of the day to let us know the plan on anyway. On one day only gave us 30 minutes to visit 1 whole town and then another day gave us 2.5 hours to visit 1 STORE. 2+ hours? 1 store? That's BS. And then did not take us to couple places on our itinerary. Like I said, Ireland was great. Hotels were great. Bus not overcrowded. Not thrilled with the driver. Oh, and he wouldn't let us use the toilet on the bus.

August 2022 • Historic Irish Castle Tour
Our experience on the Historic Irish Castles Tour was wonderful! Our representative from My Ireland Tours, Eric was great to work with, from the initial planning, to postponements from Covid, to answering numerous questions, and then lastly making the final preparations to make our tour a go! The tour included just the right amount of castles, attractions, culture, history and fun. The coach we traveled in was very comfortable, clean and included WiFi. Our driver/guide Tom Lavin was phenomenal and an especially skilled driver. His navigation of the back roads was incredible. He was amazingly knowledgeable of Ireland's history and culture. Tom shared many interesting facts, personal reflections and pointed out so many things along our tour routes. Our first trip to Ireland, and traveling internationally, was wonderful and unforgettable! Thank you My Ireland Tours for an awesome experience! You will be highly recommended!

Just returned from the 14 day Iconic tour of Scotland and Ireland, and it was amazing. The places we visited were all memorable with each having their own mystique. We were treated to very good to excellent accomodations with delicious morning and evening fare. The best of the best was Paddy, our driver, guide, and consul. He made the journey come alive. Although some days were hurried, there was always time for a wee dram with our fellow travelers. Wish our group the best until we meet again.

August 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
Brilliant 10 day trip across Ireland. The chauffeur Brian was absolutely outstanding and seemed like part of the group throughout the trip. He was kind and generous with tails of Ireland at the various local sites. Many stops and sights included in the price as well as proper breakfasts, dinners and a few lunches. Overall the hotels were good and clean. Everyone on the trip were open and we had a wonderful time. However, we did find the somewhat hidden chauffeur gratuity expectations (10-20 Euros per person per day) to be quite expensive as we had already paid quite a bit for the trip, and it made us wonder what the actual salary of the chauffeur is. Also it did not seem optional. We did not realise the gratuity expectations until end of the trip when some other guests mentioned it. I will still keep the rating at 5 stars as it was not the fault of the chauffeur.

My wife and another couple toured Ireland for the first time. the tour was remarkable. Tom our tour guide was great and provide great insight during our adventure. There was never a time that we were not moving or sightseeing. All accommodations were well planned and first class. I have travel internationally often and this was definitely my best vacation. Thank you Ireland Tours.
Jenna Bettis
August 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
When we first decided that we wanted to visit Ireland, we thought we would rent a car and explore on our own. After seeing the roads there, we are very glad that we found My Ireland Tour! They offered an extensive itinerary that hit on all of the major sites to see, but our driver, Tony McGoey, always had something extra to add. Our trip was absolutely amazing and we met some wonderful people along the way, but Tony helped to make it extra special. He has an amazing knowledge of everything Ireland and was more than happy to share it with us as well as tell some jokes, sing to us and make us laugh. He truly is a special part of My Ireland Tour. I can honestly say I have never eaten as much as I did while I was on this trip, and the food was very good. The one thing I would suggest is that there be more variety in the meals from hotel to hotel as it did become repetitive. Thank you My Ireland Tour for providing us a wonderful trip and we will definitely return! I would 100% recommend My Ireland Tour and wish everyone to have as much craic as we did. (My daughter and I at the Cliffs of Moher and Tony enjoying his pint of milk).

August 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
I just wanted to let you know what a wonderful time we had on our Ancient Ireland tour that you arranged for our family. The places that you lined up for us to stay in were absolutely wonderful. The meals, the side excursions and the beautiful Ireland countryside were so enjoyable I can hardly describe them fully. But, as good as everything that I have mentioned, the BEST part of our trip was our driver/guide, Peter Kelly. From the beginning to the end of the tour he was so enjoyable, knowledgeable and witty. He had stories of the Irish past of just about every area that we visited, knew of local restaurants, pubs, places of interest, etc that, if we had been on our own, we never would have found out about. As one of our party stated we could have interviewed one hundred people to be our driver/guide and could not have picked a better one. Again, thank you for all of your help in setting up possibly the best vacation we have ever had and making the first overseas trip for my daughter and her husband such a fantastic experience. Would it be possible for you to send me the name and email address for the company that Peter works for as I would like to let them know also what a great employee they have.

A fabulous 10 Days, we saw it all. My highlight of the trip was the coach driver 'Brian', he was not only a delightful person inside & out he knew his stuff, kept us amused & cared & shared. There was a cross range of people on board & everyone was given respect & great service. Ireland tours were very well organised & nothing was not thought of. If you are after a brilliant tour of Ireland, this tour is for you.

MIT was fantastic! Truly enjoyed my trip to Ireland. This was my first tour, the number of passengers was perfect, the bus was very comfortable, our driver/tour guide David was knowledgeable, organized, helpful, engaging and had a keen sense of humor! I enjoyed the stops we made, appreciated the accommodations, although most did not have a/c, the breakfasts and dinners all very enjoyable. Our last accommodation at a farmhouse didn't meet my expectations, although the hostess herself and her meals were stunning! I would certainly recommend My Ireland Tours!

So enjoyed the 14 day iconic tour of Ireland, Sean our driver and tour guide is so good, his driving is excellent, I felt very safe on his coach, his knowledge and storied helped make this trip fantastic. The hotels we stayed in were all very good though the food could do with improving so ..My Ireland Tour you need to improve on this as it was very repetitive Chicken or Fish on mash potatoes or pasta with tomato ! Best hotels with really good food are the first one we stayed in Dunboyne Castle Hotel and Dromhall Hotel in Killarney, loved that town. A good holiday, thank you.
Felicia Elena
August 2022 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
For our first visit to Ireland, we chose the 10-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. Can MIT control the weather, too? Because we had sun and high clouds for 90% of the trip. It made both the Cliffs of Moher and the Rock of Cashel fairytale splendid. Most importantly for us, my partner and I felt safe and included, and Ireland is fantastically LGBTQIA+ friendly. We landed in Cork City the week of Cork Pride and loved the plethora of rainbow flags and open expressions of love and community. Our guide Michael is a born storyteller, and our education in the mythos, culture, and history of every nook and cranny of the island left us wanting to know more. When we came home, I learned more about Grace O'Malley, for example, and now want to visit her birthplace in Westport. An aristocratic Irish pirate queen who met with William Cecil and Elizabeth I? Yes, please! The tour planted a lot of seeds, as good travel should. Will be informed by this visit for a long time. Thank you.

August 2022 • Ancient Ireland Tour
I have never traveled with a tour before, but I wanted to see a lot of Ireland, knew I'd be traveling alone, and didn't want to have to think too much. So, a tour made sense. In searching for a small group opportunity with excellent lodging, I discovered My Ireland Tour's website and loved the options. I chose the 8-day Ring of Kerry tour and found myself with 7 other women and a remarkable guide, David O'Neill. It was a magnificent, educational, beautiful, fun week. David is a font of knowledge and has a tremendous wit. He is totally organized but never stiff. We packed a ton into our days but also had down time. I almost never felt rushed. I always had fun, was always inspired, and was thrilled to learn so much.

This trip was the first time I chose to go on a tour and I'm so glad I did. The trip was beyond my expectations. The sites we visited, the places we stayed, and the food we ate were five star. The guide (bus driver), Paddy was unbelievable. His knowledge of each city gave me a deeper perspective of Scotland and Ireland. I always felt safe in his hands. The other tour guides were amazing with their historical knowledge, delivering the information in a friendly and courteous manner. I forged so many new friendships with the other people on our tour. I felt we were like a family. The countryside and people were beyond belief. This tour is a MUST for anyone who wishes to see Scotland and Ireland. I highly recommend it.

August 2022 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
July 2022 14-day Iconic Scenes of Ireland My husband and I just returned home after experiencing the most fantastic tour of Ireland! Everything was great from the time we departed our plane at Dublin airport until we were dropped off at the airport for the return home. I must say that our driver/tour guide, Sean O'Sullivan, was the heart of the tour. His knowledge was extensive and he constantly went out of his way to insure our satisfaction, comfort and safety. He was always available to answer questions and to solve problems. Our hotel accommodations were first class but being Americans we were not aware that the majority of the Irish hotels did not have air conditioning. However, this did not affect our enjoyment of the tour. Meals were good but the menu was catered toward tour groups and every hotel had the same basic menu. Meals were also served at 7-730pm and did not conclude until 9-9:30 which made it difficult to explore the city after dinner. However, the two lunches provided with the tour were spectacular. Transportation to and from the itinerary sites and hotels was great. The motor coach was very comfortable and since we were a small group there was plenty of room to spread out. We picked this particular tour due to the small group size and the variety of activities included. We were not disappointed! I'm not sure when our next Ireland tour will be, but it will definitely be with My Ireland Tour!

We were on the 6 Day Iconic tour in early July, and it was fantastic! We knew from the start that it was going to be a short introduction to Ireland and what in introduction! We have already begun to plan our next trip with My Ireland Tour! Our guide/driver was Garey Goddard, he did a fantastic job! Garey was knowledgeable and funny! Our bus was very nice, and we loved that the group size meant that it wasn't packed. We had room to spread out and relax. Overall, a wonderful trip! Thanks, My Ireland Tour!!

July 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
We really enjoyed our tour! The sites selected really gave us a wonderful overview of Irish history, culture and people. Our driver-guide was excellent! He was knowledgeable, personable and funny. The bus was luxurious. Only complaints: we needed more time at several sites, but time was short due to restrictions on how long the driver could be on duty. The hotels were very good, but most did not have AC - note to Americans (and everyone else in this time of climate change). Breakfasts were excellent & dinners were generally good, if not exciting.
Jan Goldman
July 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
We just returned from our trip to Ireland and can't say enough great things about it. Despite the flight delays, which were outside of everyone's control, our tour guide/driver, Tony McGoey, worked with us to make sure we didn't miss any more time from the scheduled itinerary. After reconnecting with the group, we started traveling around the island. The stops were impressive and well scheduled with interesting history, funny stories, and impressive commentary throughout from Tony. He made us laugh, taught us some engaging facts, and included some traditional Irish songs just to keep things lively. We had terrific and hot weather, which made the lack of air-conditioning in some hotels rather uncomfortable. The lack of fans in some hotels is really my only complaint. The high temperatures and sticky, humid, hotel rooms made it difficult to sleep. Fortunately, Tony did a great job keeping spirits high when we were back on the bus each day! I will definitely be returning as I loved this trip!

This company is a 1st class company. Our guide & driver(Harry Fisher) was outstanding!! We did the 10 day scenic tour. All the hotels & food was excellent, the coach was clean and very comfortable. Harry worked tirelessly to make sure everything ran smoothly. Can't say enough good things about our group. We would definitely use My Ireland Tours again.

So thankful I used My Ireland Tour to help me plan my trip. This was a family vacation with fourteen people from ages 13 to 79. Lots to consider to make the experience fun for all. My Ireland Tour did just that and then some. We had our own personal bus and driver/guide for the week. Brian Casey is his name. Brian made the trip so much more enjoyable for us because he was a hoot, full of information, and great stories. My Ireland Tours couldn't have picked a better person to be our guide. He was helpful, courteous, considerate and always on time. Our overnight accommodations were top notch and the restaurants were excellent. My Ireland Tours helped us plan to see as many sites as we could in this one week. Now I want to go back so I can see even more. If I get the chance to go again, I'll definitely use My Ireland Tour to plan the trip.

We booked a private tour for our family of eight with My Ireland Tour. Working with Eric to plan our our trip, itinerary and arrival was so easy. Eric was so responsive and answered all of our questions. He provided us with a suggested itinerary that was perfect! Upon our arrival, we were greeted by our amazing tour guide, John. Over the next 9 days, John became like part of our family. He was so helpful, so knowledgeable about the area and the history and did everything he could to ensure our visit was not only comfortable, but the most memorable time. We were so said to see him go on our last day there. The hotels Eric booked us in were amazing and in great areas of each city with walking distance to all of the things we wanted to see and do. The coach/van was perfect and very well equipped. We would, without a doubt, book with My Ireland Tour again and would also request the same guide. Our memories from this trip will stay with us forever!!!! We can not thank Eric and John enough.

Recently had my Captains Club Trip in Killarney. What a great trip ! Everything was organised impeccably, from the hotel to the golf and of course the wonderful Killarney buzz. Randles Hotel pulled out all the stops and Killarney Golf and fishing club served up 2 great courses (weather aside !). Thanks goes to Kristel at My Ireland Tours in particular for looking after all the detail and for being there when we needed her.

We had 15 wonderful days planned and coordinated with My Ireland Tours. Kristel was our contact and arranger and she did a great job with logistics. Tee times, dinners, great hotels in great locations, and she was at the ready if we needed anything. Our driver, Peter, was such a joy to be around daily, and really added an unexpected dimension of knowledge and charm to the trip for all of us. We were a group of 8 friends, 4 couples whose husbands golfed almost daily and we wives were toured and hosted by Peter while they golfed. He did an outstanding job of planning things so that we got in a lot but kept it relaxing. We would definitely do it all over again and not change a thing! Thanks to My Ireland Tours and Kristel and Peter we have some beautiful memories!
Linda Cochran
July 2022 • Custom / Private Tour
We just returned home from a much anticipated tour of Ireland with the tour group My Ireland Tour. We did the adult only, small group tour. Our expectations were significant and unfortunately for the most part were not met. Pros; the castle overnight stays were great. The grounds and staff for those locations were friendly positive and helpful. We did get to see much of Ireland, but seeing much of it was from the window of the van. Con: There's much more driving in the van, than actually exploring the surroundings on foot. The best days were the ones that we were given several hours to explore the locations. Those days were minimal. While our tour guide was nice, it seemed he was more focused on jokes than on sharing history of the locations we were passing through. I learned more history of Ireland from a local art museum store owner. There were 15-20 minute stops that were clearly “tourist spots' designed to have you spend money. Instead of those I would have liked all of that time put toward a longer visit in Galway. A fun, dynamic city that we had little time to see. Some specific things: Brewery tour: hot, loud, masses of people. I would have appreciated a stop at a local pub for the perfect Guinness pour instead. Clonmacnoise Monastery was very interesting. The guide at that location was very good. There was time to walk the grounds afterwards. Galway City: as I mentioned, the time here was very limited. More time is needed to do it justice. Ballynahinch Castle two night stay. Lovely grounds, nice staff. Two provided dinners were both too formal. One night in the pub for dinner would have been welcome. Cliffs of Moher: it was nice to get out and walk! Cahername House: two night stay. Nice hotel within walking distance to Killarney. One of the best stops as we could go to town on our own and explore. Blarney Castle: We we're given enough time to see the castle, walk the area and get lunch. It was a nice break from driving. Jameson Distillery: a good stop. Who knew that whisky and ginger is so good? Glasha Farmhouse: while the host is kind, this was a yawner of a stop. I'm not sure why this is a stop on the tour. It didn't provide any richness to the tour. Waterford Crystal: we opted to walk around the city instead of doing the tour. Others in the group thought it was interesting. Kilkenny Castle: Several comments were ABC-another bloody castle. It was self guided, so not very informative. We tried to hear what a guide was saying but they made sure we were not able to benefit from what they were saying. I understand why, but if in our tour package it should have been one that included the guide. Brooks Hotel- first and last nights were there. Good location for walking the nightlife of Dublin. Our overall experience was ho-hum. We would not recommend My Ireland Tours

MyIrelandTours ten day tour met my expectations and more. Our driver/guide Harry was wonderful and very knowledgeable of the area and his country. The biggest disappointment was not being able to see the Cliffs of Moher due to heavy fog. But you can't stop Mother Nature. I, myself, would prefer walking around in Dublin more, maybe a drop off on Grafton Street instead of going to Guinness. Or at least have that option. I'm not a beer drinker so the time spent there was very long. But over all the trip was wonderful. I would definitely recommend it to friends.

I did some extensive research before organizing our recent trip to Ireland. My Ireland Tour was mentioned a few times so I checked them out and decided to use them plan an 11 day tour for a group of 16. I worked with Kristel on planning the tour and found her simply wonderful. She was full of helpful recommendations and options at every stage. The tour itself was magical. Our coach/guide was Ben Sullivan and he could not have been better. What's more he entertained us with song throughout the trip. The accommodations were top class and the food was 5 star. If you are thinking of going on a tour of Ireland or organizing your own private tour then look no further than My Ireland Tour.

Kristel I want to thank you for arranging a wonderful vacation for me and my family. I never thought a trip could be so wonderful or a country so beautiful. I cannot give Ben Sullivan enough compliments. Ben made a good vacation into a fantastic experience that my family and I will remember for a lifetime. Per my grandchildren the best part of the trip was spending time with Ben. I will highly recommend the services of My Ireland Tour and Ben Sullivan to anyone inquiring about my trip to your beautiful country.

This truly was a trip of a life time and My Ireland Tours made it so easy. We took 8 wonderful days in southern Ireland and saw so many wonderful sights and met so many wonderful people. This was a family trip with my wife and daughter and son in law and it produced memories that we will share together for ever. All of the accommodations were five star and our guide Pat was wonderful. This was my 70th birthday celebration and it was the best birthday gift I could have ever imagined. Thank you Eric and My Ireland Tours for a wonderful experience.

In the past five years I have used My Ireland Tour twice, and they do not disappoint. First you can design your own itinerary, if you desire, if you do they will help you with suggestions, that will enhance your trip. They will book you into hotels that have great reputations, sometimes even 5 star at a reasonable trip cost. Last, they provide well respected tour guide drivers in great coaches. A great tour guide/driver makes all the difference in a tour. The most recent tour of Northern Ireland with driver guide Raymond Wilson was truly a great experience. The support and communication with the office staff was always helpful and professional. I would never consider a trip to Ireland without using My Ireland Tours.
Rita Ann
July 2022 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
I chose the 10 day iconic scenes of Ireland tour. My experience was 5 stars from start to finish. Beginning with the office staff answering all my questions and helping find accommodations after the tour was over, to the actual tour. Our tour guide Tony was hands down the best guide I've ever had. He taught us all about the history of Ireland, current events, and even traditional songs so we could sing along in the pubs! He answered every smart and absurd question thrown at him from our group. He had a wealth of knowledge about local towns to the whole of Ireland. This tour takes care of everything for you. You never have to check into a hotel, or get lost trying to find it or the local attractions. The hotels are all very nice with tasty selections for breakfast and dinner. They did get a little repetitive by the end but they were all quality, and included in the cost! You're back to hotel every night by dinnertime, and finished with plenty of time to go out and peruse the local vibe. The pubs in each town were so fun! I really can't say enough about this tour. The value you receive for what you pay is incredible. I wish I could have Tony on every vacation, he really is the absolute best.

Best tour ever! I cannot say enough good things about this tour company. Everyone from the office is great and so helpful. Our tour guide and driver Tony was so amazing. Tony was a true joy to listen too and be around. He taught us so much about the Republic of Ireland and it's history. Best driver award to Tony as well. I would do this tour again in a heartbeat or one of their other tours they offer on my next visit!

When looking for a company to use for our trip to Ireland, I looked at Blogs, TripAdvisor and read tons of reviews like this one, so I thought it appropriate to review our fantastic trip with My Ireland Tour! I chose My Ireland Tour for my family of six (my husband, myself and our four children ages 24, 23, 21 and 19) for many reasons and I am so HAPPY I did! It was important to me that we had a trip that included hotels, meals and entrance fees to any exhibits. I also wanted to see much of the country while we were there. We took the 10 Day Iconic Tour because this tour company offered all of that and more!! We saw a ton, did a ton and had as much free time and down time as we needed. It was priced fairly and we were pleased and impressed with all of the hotels and accommodations. I was worried about extra costs along the way with my large family and it was not the case at all. The bus was new and clean - as well as having wifi (huge!). Tom L was the BEST tour guide. He was professional, caring and informative. He taught us a tremendous amount about the country's politics, current European Union changes, Irish history and the future of Ireland. He was extremely knowledgeable. He knew this was a trip of a lifetime for my family and he treated us as such. He took very good care of us for 10 days. We always felt like we were his first priority. Tom made sure we saw all of the important tourist spots and added some very special touches that made our time there very memorable. We did not want to leave! I highly recommend this company. You leave Ireland feeling as if you just took the vacation of your life - it is a special company who cares about their customers. A+!! Slainte!! Please enjoy some of our pics.

We did the 10 Day tour with My Ireland Tours and it was FANTASTIC! Our driver / guide Tony was the best and EVERY aspect of the tour was top notch! The accommodations, the food, and the TOURS were incredible and Tony's easy going personality was a big reason that our tour group bonded so quickly! Several of us are already planning a 2023 tour! THANKS to Tony and everyone at My Ireland Tours for providing us with a wonderful trip! Two Thumbs WAY UP!

Paddy, our tour guide was absolutely wonderful, so knowledgeable and an awesome person, took great care of all of us. This was the trip of a lifetime for me and I enjoyed every minute of it. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a tour of Scotland and Ireland. I have over 1000 pictures and so many wonderful memories. Can't wait to go again, this tour company was excellent.

Our recent trip to Ireland far far exceeded our expectations. Like many, we had been planning for multiple years due to Covid. Kristel stuck with us the whole time and was incredibly helpful. Mick our driver/tour guide was fantastic. He never was at a loss for fun stories or facts about each location that we were traveling to. During the planning portion I asked Kristel to please give us a fun guide. We are a friendly group and were looking for fun, adventure, and great scenery/locations. This trip did not disappoint in any way. I plan many trip sand have traveled extensively and I can honestly say that I could not have asked for any thing more. Thank you so much to Kristel, Mick and everyone else at MyI Ireland Tour. I highly recommend them. Sincerely, Cathy

Recently returned from the 10-day Iconic tour of Ireland with my daughters. Fantastic trip in every regard. Gorgeous, never-ending landscapes, lots of interesting and relevant history and a ton of fun. Our guide/driver, Tony, made the travelling painless and fun, with story-telling, singing and helpful hints-he also knew when to let us recharge with quiet appreciation of the scenery. Everything was well-organized and efficient. I would definitely use MyIrelandTours again!

July 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
Amazing! This tour was everything we hoped it would be and more! Our tour guide, Tony McGoey, was the perfect guide: funny, informative, a fantastic driver, and had a great singing voice! He would sing us some Irish folk songs and kept us laughing throughout. This tour was perfect! We saw so many things every day, learned so much about Irish history, and really felt immersed in the country. I liked that we moved towns every 2 days and explored so many locations on the bus daily. I would HIGHLY recommend this trip to anyone who wants to go to Ireland. It never felt touristy, but gave us a great feel for so much. We enjoyed every minute!

We toured the southern loop of Ireland with our amazing tour guide, Tony! The 10 day trip was filled with laughter, history, sights, dancing and singing. Day after day the sights were breathtaking but the way Tony managed our tour made the experience even more memorable!

July 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
Truly an amazing journey! It was well organized, flowed correctly and our driver Paddy was knowledgeable, humorous, frank, and a very good driver who cared about our safety first. Really was something! The hotels were clean and ready for us as we arrived, occasionally the dinner hour was later than we were accustomed, but always delicious and plentiful. Love the large bus - small group concept, as this gives everyone a window if they like and keeps the group manageable. Thanks My Ireland Tours - I would absolutely recommend your tour line.

I just returned from the 10 day iconic scenes of Ireland tour led by Tom Lavin. It was absolutely amazing! Tom was magnificent. Due to long wait times at customs and poor wifi connection, I was worried I'd miss my shuttle to the first hotel, but Tom was great at communicating with me until we were able to meet up. Tom was also very attentive to the entire 24 person group, always asking how our hotels and dinners were, and providing very interesting and insightful information about Ireland and its history along our routes. It was extremely impressive how he was able to keep talking for 30+ minutes at a time as we went from site to site. I went on this trip as a solo traveler but everyone was so friendly I never felt alone or left out. It also allowed me to take my time at sites and do whatever I wanted when I wanted to (and take as many pictures as my heart desired). This is definitely a tour I would recommend for any other solo travelers looking for an awesome trip. As for the sites, it was a good mix of truly iconic places like the Cliffs of Moher and the Blarney stone, and less well-known places (to me, at least) such as the Irish National Stud Farm and Charles Fort. The tour also made sure to highlight family owned/local small businesses so our hotels never felt like we were just staying at a generic Hilton. To would always make sure to give recommendations for places to eat or try out along the way too. We finished the trip by eating dinner at the Merry Ploughboy which had Irish singers and dancers performing which was just the cherry on top of an awesome sundae. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone, whether they're a couple, a group of friends, a large family unit, or even a solo traveler like myself! It's a great way to see lots of Ireland.

We enjoyed our 6-day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour immensely. The tour packs a lot of sightseeing into less than a week. The pace is quick, but with plenty of stops to get out and explore. Our guide David is both knowledgable and funny, sprinkling his geographic, historical and social insights with no small amount of humor. I highly recommend the experience.

I just wanted to write to let you know our tour was fantastic!! I can't thank you enough for your patience and help with planning this trip. I will tell you that I was nervous because I had never dealt with your company before and was concerned that all that was promised would not be delivered. I was foolish to have worried! Your attention to detail and suggestions for the tour route made this a trip my family will never forget. Being able to add stops in Portstewart and Dungiven was particularly meaningful for my husband. We did meet relatives while there and visited the church in which my husband's great grandparents were married. The Joyce Sheepdog demonstration was a huge hit with everyone but especially my grandsons. Colm was a wealth of information and we appreciated his patience with the little guys. He truly went above and beyond! Again, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your assistance in making this a most memorable trip and one we will not soon forget!

We toured the north with our wonderful driver Raymond. We started in Dublin, went north up the coast, around to Londonderry/Derry, on to Galway, then back across to Dublin. Raymond was engaging, entertaining, and is an amazing, amazing driver. He is careful and courteous in this driving, and when a detour took us down a narrow street, he kept calm and squeezed us through. He was great with kids and seniors alike. Most appropriate and helpful, and answered our endless questions with patience and grace. Thank you Raymond for making our trip a memorable one, you are a stellar ambassador for your country. Slainte, friends.

Wonderful tour! Saw so many things it was hard to keep our days straight. Meals got kind of boring. Same things most nights. Was very happy I came in a day early to rest from my flights. That was well worth it to be fresh and ready for the tour.

July 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
My family and I recently returned from a two week My Ireland Tour trip to Ireland. This trip was in the works since 2020 but as you are aware COVID created many challenges. Kristel from My Ireland Tours worked with me to plan, plan again, and plan again until all details were locked in and set to go. She was flexible, responsive and did her best to make our trip one we will always remember. The hotels she booked were excellent and surprisingly the food at these establishments was very good. Most importantly, all hotels welcomed us with open arms and made our stay very comfortable and positive. It is important to note that our van driver had a last minute emergency and Kristel replaced him with John, an excellent tour guide, driver and addition to our group. I cannot say enough about John. I thank him for adding so much knowledge, fun and hospitality to our trip. Cheers John! The van we were given had mechanical issues our second day there. Kristel and John worked closely to get us a new van immediately. Kristel was in direct contact with me to be sure all details were handled and the van was satisfactory. My Ireland Tours was recommended to me. I give them my highest recommendation. Kristel worked through a myriad of challenges and logistics to make our trip great! Being our first trip to Ireland with a group of 14, I trusted My Ireland Tours and they came through in a big way! THANK YOU!

Appreciated the hub of 2 hotels to avoid daily handling of luggage, however that did mean tacking on at least a couple hours of travel to return to lodgings. Tour guide was knowledgeable and highly entertaining!

Hello, we were on the Deluxe Irish Castle Tour starting on June 12th. Due to our flight we had to meet our group at Dunmore Castle. From moment one we were impressed and in awe of the accommodations on our trip. Our driver/guide was Garey Goddard. He was also one of the highlights of the trip. The coach on our tour was very clean and comfortable and Garey maneuvered it like it was nothing. His sense of humor and knowledge of the sites and local areas was top notch. He would tell us the times of stops on the days itinerary and we would arrive within minutes of the time stated. Each day's accommodation was more impressive than the last. The dinners in the evenings where first class along with breakfasts in the mornings. Everything about the tour was amazing. We will be reliving our trip with anyone who will listen to us. It was our first time in Ireland, and we definitely want to return. We will book with My Ireland Tours for sure. We will also see which tours Garey is on and try to tour with him again. Thank you putting together an amazing tour.

We took a private 8 person 8 day tour with very vague instructions to the scheduler, 'We want to see castles, hear limericks and photograph all 40 shades of green.' They exceeded expectations and delivered a fun trip up through Belfast, Derry, Galway, then down into Ballynahinch and Dublin hitting places like the Giant's Causeway, Marble Arch Caves, and every back road possible. Our tour guide was considerate, informed, witty and delightful. If you're on the fence, don't be. These folks are top shelf quality professionals. Commit!

My husband and I recently returned from the historic Irish Castles tour (Backroads and Castles). It was such an amazing trip and we loved every second! From staying in castles to a beautiful sunny day at the Cliffs of Mohrer we were smiling the whole week! Ken McConnell was our driver and was wonderful and made everything better and was a great driver!!! The tour is well planned out and you don't feel rushed and we saw so many amazing sights! We had a great group of people as well which just made the experience more enjoyable. Food and service were delicious everywhere we went. We will definitely use My Ireland Tours for our return trip because we are definitely going back! Thank you for making our 1st trip to Ireland so amazing!

We are back from Ireland and have had a little sleep to recover! I wanted to reach out and say thank you so much for the wonderful trip you put together for us. The itinerary was great, and brought us close to the places we needed to explore. I can't imagine how we could have improved upon the route we took. It was a fully packed week, but we did manage to squeeze everything in. Raymond was an excellent driver/guide. He was totally professional, very personable, and really went out of his way to meet all of our requests for stops, shopping, photo ops, etc. He was an incredible artist behind the wheel, getting us in and out of all kinds of narrow, challenging spots (and believe me we came up with some challenges for him) ! 'Mad skills' was a phrase that came up often! On behalf of my cousins and myself, we thank you so much for all the help you've been over the last few years, planning, scheduling, cancelling, re-planning, etc. At some points it wasn't clear we'd ever be able to pull this off, but you made our dreams come true Thank you, and be sure I will sing your praises, and that of the entire My Ireland Tour team, to anyone I know looking to travel to Ireland.

What an amazing tour. All the accommodations were top drawer. The food, while a limited selection, was prepared fantastically and was delicious. Our driver, Tony, was not only incredibly knowledgeable about Irish history, he was friendly, he was fun, he was prepared for anything that we asked about, he sang to us (and taught us a few Irish tunes), and most of all he was a good driver. I found Tony to be even more endearing because I was traveling alone and he took extra steps to see to my safety and to be sure I was prepared for anything that I had to encounter. Not only would I recommend My Ireland Tours, I would take another tour with them. Best 10 days of my life so far. Worth every penny.

This was an amazing trip. Tom our driver/guide was one of the best I've ever met. He was very knowledgeable. The 'extras' he added were some of the highlights of the trip. Any issues or needs he handled with such care that you never had a second thought about it. The tour company was excellent as well. They kept us well informed. This was our third try due to COVID-19. In all 3 years it took to get there Shannon kept us up to date. Their cancel/refund policies we above and beyond.

We have just finally returned home as after our wonderful 14 Day Iconic tour of Ireland we continued on to Venice to join a Cruise. We waited for a couple of years to do our Irish Tour as everything was cancelled due to the Covid Pandemic and in the interim My Ireland Tours kept us up to date with all that was happening and rolled our tour over from year to year. Our Tour commenced in Dublin on the 3rd of June 2022. We were transferred from Airport to our first Hotel, Dunboyne Castle and what a wonderful place to start our tour in. There was 26 of us and we travelled on a Full Size Bus with plenty of spare seats and room to move for the entire trip. Sean O'Sullivan was our driver/guide and he did an amazing job of driving whilst giving us incredible information and commentary, Sean really made the trip and we saw and experienced Ireland. The bags outside room at 8am then go down to breakfast and we leave at 9 am worked extremally well. It was great not to have really early starts as happens with some companies. The included evening meals were great and tasty, however by the end of the trips the menu at each hotel did seem to contain similar items and it would have been nice to have a bit more variety. Timing of the meal was scheduled for 7:30 pm and most of the group prefered an earlier dining time, Sean was successful in rescheduling our evening meal to 6:30 at most (not all Hotels) which worked well. The included activites/excursions each day and free time in most places worked well. Overall a really great way to discover Ireland without having to drive yourself. Highly recommended.

Wonderful tour and tour guide. Loved how easy everything was, they transported the luggage at each hotel. Took care of the agenda and driving. The sights we saw were the perfect balance of history, small towns, beauty and the local culture. Had a wonderful time seeing Ireland and will definitely use this tour group again.

My wife and I took the Scotland/Ireland tour the end of May first 10 days of June. We had a wonderful experience with a variety of sites in both countries. Paddy was our driver and was great. I am sure all of their drivers are wonderful but our experience with Paddy would be hard to beat. For me the visit to the distillery, cut glass factory and sheep dog herding demonstration was quite enlightening. Our stay in 2 different castles was a unique experience and both were quite different. My wife, the shopper, liked everything as well but especially the trip to Blarney Woollen Mills where she could by sweaters! We went a day early to adjust to the time change and the overnight travel thinking we might take a nap and go sight seeing. However, we couldn't get in the room until the afternoon (we arrived at 9 AM) so we went sight seeing without the nap. It was nice to be able to do so and if you make the same decision I recommend a visit to the Edinburg Botanical Gardens.

13 days end of May first week of June private family of 8 with two youngsters Organization...terrific Flexibility...excellent Value...worth every cent People (Shannon/Eric) are so easy to deal with. Accommodations were the best. Assisted with two night stay glamping on the Aran Islands. But here's the REAL DEAL...Ben Sullivan was our tour guide, driver, confidant, singer, story teller, historian who became 'one of our family' for two weeks. Ben made the trip a success all by himself. We feel you will not find a better operation than My Ireland Tours. We would not use anyone else.

Thank you, My Ireland Tour for creating memories that will last a lifetime. I just returned from the Backroads and Castles tour with my mother, mother-in-law and daughter. We were truly treated like royalty during our overnight stays at the castles! Ken O'Connell, our tour guide was knowledgeable and had a fantastic Irish sense of humor. The tour offered a variety of sites such as the Cliffs of Moher, the Rock of Cashel, Kylemore Abbey, and stopping along the road to take pictures of the sheep! I will never forget our time in Ireland and I'm already making plans to come back!

July 2022 • Historic Irish Castle Tour
Just got back from the wonderful Backroads and Castles tour. As expected, the experience was amazing. First: our driver/guide, Ken O'Connell was the best I have ever experiences, and certainly the most knowledgeable about Ireland. Also, my travel companion get ill on the trip, and Ken could not have been more solicitous nor kind in helping us along. The castles were beautiful, and the staffs at both places went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed and at home. As it always does, the Rock of Cashel touched my heart. We were also blessed with a gorgeous clear day at the Cliffs of Mohrer. The show at the Merry Ploughboys was a wonderfully fitting end to a great journey. As I have come to expect, My Ireland Tour came through in a big way!!

My husband, 2 kids, sister and parents went on the 10 day iconic tour of Ireland together and I would strongly recommend, without reservations, this trip to anyone. It was well organized, with a wonderful guide - Tom - who made sure everyone was okay, and who was very educated about Ireland and happy to share that knowledge. The accommodations and meals and excursions were perfect. The bus had wi-fi and air conditioning and felt comfortable. The worst part of the trip was the flight home.

Paddy is the absolute best tour-guide!! Knows everything from the Scots to the luscious greens of Ireland! As it was unexpected, my traveling companion needed to use a walker during this time…Paddy was so gracious to make the walker so easily available…He was so very helpful…Worth every penny!! Would have liked to peruse the Titanic Museum, but not available on this tour. Maybe next time…hint,hint!! The last two evenings of the tour were spent at a Country Club…so unimpressive I can't even remember the name…I'd NEVER stay there again! Love You Paddy!! You're the best!! Thanks for making this bucket-list trip the best it could ever be!!!
Brad Niewierowski
June 2022 • Deluxe Castles Tour
We were extremely happy with the experience we had on our first visit to Ireland through My Ireland Tour in May/June. The 10-day Deluxe Irish Castles Tour had a great blend of attractions, culture, history and fun that left us not wanting to leave come the last day of our visit. We made the trip in celebration of our 25th anniversary and Eric and Shannon did a great job in answering all of our early questions and making the booking as seamless as possible. They must have also passed on our celebration information to all the hotels where we stayed as there was a congratulatory letter and treat awaiting us in our rooms upon arriving at each new location. It was a nice gesture by the tour company and employees for going above and beyond to make our trip special and memorable! Everything was wonderful, from the accommodations, to the tour sites and smaller excursions, and even the comfort of the bus, which also offered the conveniences of Wi-fi and a cooler. What probably made the actual tour great though was having a quality guide and driver, ours being Tom Lavin. Not only was he excellent on the driving, but he offered so much insight, history and information along the way, in addition to sharing personal stories that helped paint a picture of actual cultural life, that it really helped you feel immersed in the experience of Ireland beyond the just the awesome sights. You could tell that he genuinely cared about ensuring that all of the guests felt like they got the most out of the experience, which we definitely felt like we did. Not only was he an excellent representative of his country, but also just a genuine, likeable guy that you would hope to meet again some day. Overall, we would highly recommend My Ireland Tour for anyone planning a visit to this beautiful country as their team was top notch from start to finish. We enjoyed it so much that it has left us with continued discussions about a return visit! Thank you all for a great experience!

After having our tour postponed for almost 2 years, my friends and I have just returned from the 14-day Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour. Pat P. was our amazing driver guide who took such good care of all of us. Pat's driving skills were superb and he was so knowledgeable about the history and customs of each country. I especially enjoyed his sense of humor and quick wit. Our small group of 17 really kept him on his toes and he was definitely up to the challenge!! Our hotel accommodations, (including a palace and a castle!) were top notch while the meals in the hotel restaurants were very good but did become somewhat repetitive. One suggestion would be to shorten the time spent on large city tours to allow more time at the venues we actually got to tour. All in all, this was a fabulous tour from beginning to end and I would highly recommend My Ireland Tours!

From the moment we landed in Dublin to our return, we enjoyed every minute of our Northern Ireland excursion. The quality of the food and hotels exceeded our expectations. The sites along the way were so well paced and planned. We were immersed in the beautiful countryside and the trip activities. Tony was the ultimate tour guide, offering a very relaxed environment on the bus yet you knew he was totally on top of every detail. He also was extremely informative without being overwhelming. The office (Shauni) helped us plan and prepare so well and answered any questions we had on a timely basis. I highly recommend My Ireland Tour to anyone looking for a relaxed, informative, engaging vacation in beautiful Ireland. Thank you for memories that will last our lifetimes. Kathleen, Cameron and Max

This was our first experience with a private tour. We had booked a small tour (18 people) through a group we have traveled with several times, but wanted to have a few days before we joined them to do some personal things. Kevin met us at the airport and took us to our first hotel in Killarney. Our original hiking plans in the Killarney National Park fell through as my wife needs to have a hip replaced. He suggested we visit the Dingle peninsula. He took us on an excellent tour recommending a very good restaurant for lunch in Dingle. From Killarney we headed to County Cork. Kevin negotiated the backroads taking us to Rossmore, a small village with only eight families. He found a local woman who took us to a distant cousin's house. From there we visited my first grade teacher in Cork. She is an Irish nun who taught in California. This was followed by trip to another small village, Ballymacoda, where I had lunch with some distant cousins and had a pint in the old family pub (now under new management). Kevin helped get me to places off the beaten path. He also brought us to some amazing sights in Ireland. He helped us understand Irish culture much better than we would have on a bus tour. We enjoyed the experience so much that we are talking about another trip in a year or two. I should also mention the accommodations chosen for us in Killarney and Kinsale. Both were excellent experiences. Years ago I would have driven myself. It was so relaxing to leave the driving to Kevin. It was also nice to have someone who helped us find my relatives. I highly recommend My Ireland Tour.

I can't really add much to the great reviews of MyIreland Tours that I have seen! We did the 6 day tour recently and had a wonderful time, so well organized, comfortable bus, great sights, great communication with the company before we left. Special mention of our driver David- he was organized, funny, helpful, a great driver, so informative about Irish history and landmarks, and there was not a question that he couldn't answer!

Having just returned back to the States after completing a 9 day tour with My Ireland Tour I can unconditionally say Ireland is beautiful and using My Ireland Tour is the only way to see it. My wife and I, two daughters and 3 grandchildren took the private coach tour, it proved to be comfortable and extremely convenient, whether checking in at a hotel or at the many sights on our itinerary. Dave our driver did it all for us. The kids loved Dave, he was funny and had many anecdotes about the Irish culture and the country side. Kristel planned out a compressive tour of all the sites on our list plus more. I could go on and on about how great an experience it was seeing Ireland for the first time with My Ireland Tour but it's the memories with my family that we will cherish.

This was an outstanding tour from start to finish! Shannon kept us informed and helped with questions before we left. Once on the trip Pat P., our driver, was excellent. He was a wealth of information and kept the tour running smooth. It also helped that he was absolutely hilarious! We plan on traveling to Ireland again and will definitely use this company!

Michael Hartman
June 2022 • 14 Day Iconic Scenes
Our 14-day Iconic tour of Ireland was a wonderful way to see and understand this beautiful country. The breadth and depth of our tour made the 13 days on a bus, while tiring, very well worth it. The star of the trip was our fantastic driver/guide Sean O'Sullivan. His amazing driving skills kept us safe and his knowledge of all the history was incredible. At one point in the tour, he told us since we were ahead of schedule and had some time, he wanted us to see a restored round fort, which turned out to be the highlight of the day, if not the trip. If not for his initiative to visit this site, which was not even on the itinerary, we would never have seen and understood the significance of this incredible landmark. His attention to our needs and comfort was exceptional. Our only suggestion would be regarding the dinners. First, nearly all our tour was comprised of Americans, who were not used to eating dinner at 7:30, and it left little time for exploring the area after 9:00pm at night, when we were all full and tired. Sean was successful in changing the times to 6:30 in some instances, which helped. Also, the food was tasty and ample, but as the tour progressed the menus all looked the same as the last. We opted on 3 nights to seek more variety at a local restaurant instead of partake of the included meal at the hotel.

I took a 14 day Solo tour and was blown away. Made several friends and the tour guide John, never let me feel like a third wheel. His knowledge and passion of all things Ireland made this a very special trip. The accommodations were top notch, great staff in all the hotels. John gave us great tips on places to see in the evenings, recommending shows, pubs, shopping. Highly recommend this company and hands down John. Thanks for creating memories for a life time!

We chose the Deluxe Irish Castles tour for May 29-June 7, 2022. We had a wonderful driver/guide for our tour, Tom, who was calm, funny, informative and always looking out for our group. We had planned this tour pre-covid, and due to Covid we had to reschedule it twice, so it was a long time coming and did NOT disappoint. Weather was great for the most part, hotels were amazing, rooms were comfortable and beautifully appointed. Dinners were 3 course and the food choices were varied and delicious and what you would expect from 4 and 5 star hotels. Our bus was comfortable and had free wifi which worked quite well. The views of the Irish countryside were breathtaking thru the large windows. Tom treated us to a couple of off the beaten path attractions that we all enjoyed. Tips to keep in mind: there is storage space above your seat on the bus but it is very narrow, dinners run a little late, and trust the “place your bags out in the hall' process. My Ireland Tours knows what they are doing and they do a great job. It's was worth every Penny! Thank you to Tom and all the folks at My Ireland Tours for making this trip a dream come true.

OK so we have a weird group to start off that likes to get off the beaten path and see lighthouses and waterfalls and covered bridges in addition to all the normal tourist stuff. Go figure. Pretty well traveled and a bit independent and normally not a sit on the beach kind of crowd. So at the outset Shauni and the office staff worked with us to modify a standard tour to accommodate some of our quirks. We did some back and forth and ended up with just the right amount of everything and at an adjusted price we thought was more than fair. Then time to tour. John McSweeney - absolutely a first rate regular guy. Super history but also good stories and a way with the hotel and attractions people that really helps grease the inevitable skids when you need it. A bus for 15 for our group of 6 was perfect for taking gear off after the inevitable showers and drying things off as we rolled down the road. The accommodations- come on! Absolutely first rate everywhere including the days we were out in the middle of nowhere at B&B's. The Glasha Farmhouse- makes you want to till the soil ,milk the cows and shear the sheep! Not exactly a farmhouse with their gourmet food and amazing people if you catch our drift. And all the other accommodations and foods were similarly excellent. We covered a lot of ground over 10 days and could not have been happier. We were not on a bigger tour so can't comment on that but would highly recommend this organization for any types of small groups like we had as they are first rate in all phases of the planning and execution of an Ireland experience.

The trip to Ireland was for my mom's 65th birthday, and while she's always dreamed of visiting, we had no idea how unique our experience would be. We could not have asked for a better guide than Tony. Aside from the gorgeous landscapes, breathtaking hotels, and well-thought-out itinerary, Tony absolutely made the trip one we will cherish forever. His stories, songs, and genuine care for the country he came from will ensure we'll be back for years to come. We are very blessed to have had this adventure.

My wife, daughter, and I just returned from our 10-day Iconic Sights of Ireland tour and are very glad we used My Ireland Tour for our first visit to the country. Our guide and driver, Raymond, was fantastic. He was very friendly, helpful, and funny. His driving skills are impeccable, especially considering how narrow the roads are. He kept us on scheduling without making us feel too rushed. Shauni at My Irleand Tour's office communicated very promptly to help us book the trip and provided timely updates. The hotel accommodations were all very nice. The meals in the hotel restaurants did become repetitive, with similar food choices at each dinner. However, the lunch at the Blind Piper Pub in Caherdaniel was fantastic. (Best fish and chips I've ever had!) My family and I also enjoyed very much the show and dinner at The Merry Ploughboy Pub in Dublin. The sights in Ireland were beautiful; we had never seen so many shades of green! The Cliffs of Mohr provide an unbelievable view. The Irish people were also very friendly and welcoming. We are so glad we were able to visit Ireland and thank everyone at My Ireland Tour for making our trip a success!

We spent 2 weeks this May, 2022 touring Scotland and Ireland with Pat and My Ireland Tours. The daily itinerary was suggested to us but we were able to make changes. We were a party of 11 and this type of tour was exactly what we wanted- not a bus with 40-50 people. We moved at our own pace and Pat was amazing. Not only was he an exceptional driver but an A+++ tour guide. We were constantly surprised by his knowledge of history and many, many fun stories. We all loved his great sense of humor... Pat had suggestions of where to eat, places not to miss. The trip was all we expected and more!

My sister and I did the 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour June 6-15. It was fabulous in every regard! Our motor-coach driver, Raymond Wilson, greeted us at the airport upon arrival at 10:00am and whisked us, and 5 others, off to Dunboyne Castle Hotel. We were all jet-lagged and fortunately, our rooms were ready at 11:00 when we arrived, instead of the 3:00pm check-in. We took a 3 hour nap and then ventured out to explore until our 6:00pm group dinner…where we met all the members of our tour group. Raymond was so knowledgeable about Ireland's history and all the sights we would be seeing. His skillful driving of the motor-coach on the narrow, winding roads made us all feel safe and comfortable in his capable hands. He was very funny and we had such a great time with him! As for the sights, hotels and breakfast/dinners…you couldn't ask for more. Stunningly beautiful and historic places, great food and the hotels were 5 star. What can I say about the pubs and the Irish music, other than it was our favorite part to venture out after dinner and join in the revelry of rollicking music. We even skipped a few group dinners and hit the pubs instead with 3 other traveling companions on our tour. If you are planning a trip to Ireland in the future, you cannot go wrong with My Ireland Tours. Every single detail of the trip was memorable and perfect in every way!

Our driver Paddy was the best and had a great personality. I loved all our stops except maybe Belfast. Most of the meals were good and also the service. My favorite hotel was Athol palace and would love to go back there. Not sure about 3 nights in a row never being able to unpack my suit case but I'm sure it's in the traveling itinerary that way to make some travel time. My only hiccup was arriving late for check-in and it would have been nice to enjoy some of the grounds at the 1 night hotels to really get a feel for the place. But I would highly recommend this to anyone to who has never been to Scotland and Ireland so they will know where to go back to.

Our tour was fantastic. We were a small group of only 7 on a large bus that could handle 45 so we got to spread out. Nials, our guide was a wealth of knowledge and gave us a great local taste of life in Northern Ireland. The hotels were all good, and the hotel breakfasts were great and the dinners were adequate to fill our bellies. Highly recommend.

My Ireland Tour company was a fantastic company to travel in Ireland with. Kristel went to great lengths to help us with a fantastic itinerary; she was pleased to revise to accommodate us. Paddy, our driver/guide was amazing, a true gentleman, fun, witty and a wealth of knowledge about Ireland - both current and historical. Paddy went out of his way to accommodate us and even included a few wonderful surprises beyond the scheduled itinerary. We hated to leave Paddy behind, as much as we hated to leave Ireland!

14 Day Scotland - Ireland Tour. This was the trip of a life time. We originally scheduled this trip for 2021 but had to reschedule for 2022. The wait was well worth it! The sites, the hotels and tour bus were worthy of 5 stars. Our guide, Paddy, should be given more than 5 stars. His knowledge and explanation (with a bit of humor) of the sites visited was wonderful. He also made some stops that were not on the tour that were beautiful photo opportunities. My wife had a medical issue a week into the tour and Paddy made sure to find us a 24 hour medical care within a 1/2 mile of our hotel. While we stayed at the hotel for the day, Paddy kept in contact with us to make sure everything was ok. Every thing that we saw and experienced was amazing. The last night at the Merry Ploughboys Restaurant and Pub was the perfect end to a magical vacation. If I were to change one thing about the tour, it would be to have an afternoon off at a 2 night hotel about half way through the tour. We could have used an afternoon of down time to just relax. Still a 5 star tour that we would do again in a heart beat!

My Ireland Tour was a wonderful experience! Everything was perfectly planned from the time we were picked up at the airport. Our guide, Michael, was very knowledgeable and provided important historical information wherever our travels took us. We were also able to change the itinerary when necessary with no disruptions. It was the perfect vacation-we didn't have to plan or think about anything except what to eat at the wonderful castle hotel restaurants. I highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants a stress-free vacation in Ireland.

Just returned from the 10 Day Iconic Scenes Tour yesterday. From the moment we arrived at the airport and were greeted by Raymond Wilson until the end when he safely returned us to the airport to fly home, I could not have asked for a better experience for my first trip to Ireland. Our group of 26 people from 3 different countries became fast friends straight away and I'm sure we will keep in touch for years to come. This tour covered so much of Ireland and the individual stops were perfectly planned and coordinated along the way. Our fearless leader, Raymond, kept us safe, entertained and educated the entire trip. Thank you so much for a most magical and unforgettable time!

My wife Marilyn and I just returned home from our 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. We travelled with a great group of people from Canada, US and one from Australia. Our driver Garey was very knowledgeable and went out of his way to accommodate all of us. Our tour bus was very comfortable and the Irish scenery was stunning. The hotel accommodations and the meals were 5 star all the way and the highlight of the tour was the grand finale at the Merry Ploughboy Pub where we were entertained by the Merry Ploughboys with traditional Irish music and fantastic Irish dancers. We highly recommend My Ireland Tours.

My husband and I just completed the 10 Day Iconic tour with Garey as our driver guide. The tour was very well organized, lovely hotels, food and excellent commentary from Garey. We liked the pace of the tour not rushed out the door, a nice mixture of sights, castles, natural wonders, and stops. MyIreland was extremely accommodating with the first cancellation in 2020. We appreciated level of ethics they displayed so much so that we rebooked with them when world events made it possible. Overall an amazing experience.

My wife, Debbie, and I cannot say enough good things about My Ireland Tour. Our tour guide, Garey, was extremely knowledgeable about Ireland, he was funny, and he kept us safe down those winding narrow roads. After we returned home, I asked my wife how much the tour cost. I don't know how they arranged all of those quality hotels, all of that food, and all of the other things that were provided with the tour for the price we paid. This tour is an excellent value, and these are excellent people. Thank you My Ireland Tours for making our 25th wedding anniversary amazing and totally unforgettable.

June 2022 • Custom / Private Tour
Thrilled with our decision to use My Ireland Tour! We created an itinerary that toured much of the lower half of the country. We covered a lot of ground and saw so much, with the help of our amazing driver/guide Mick. He was informative, funny, engaging. I swear, Mick knows everyone! He gladly changed up the plans for the day when needed. After shopping at Dingle Crystal, we wanted to see their local factory. Done! Mid-week Mick learned that the lines to Blarney Castle were hours long. Our group had no interest in the wait, so he offered alternatives for that day. And he knew the best little places to stop for lunch! Having a true local as our guide provided us with such a great experience. The 9 passenger bus was comfortable and had large windows so we could see all the beautiful views. If you have the chance to stay at Ballynahinch Castle Hotel - do! Fabulous. Thank you Kristel and Mick for providing our extended family with a vacation we'll always remember!

What a fabulous trip to Ireland thanks to My Ireland Tour and our tour guide, Patrick! We crammed a lot of sites into our 8 day trip, at our request, and none disappointed! Our tour guide Pat was kind, funny, and very knowledgable! He made small adjustments for us, yet still kept us on schedule! I would highly recommend My Ireland Tour for all your touring needs while visiting! They also kept in communication with us regarding our trip well in advance of us even arriving! Go to Ireland and use My Ireland Tour and ask for PAT!!

Not sure where to begin! Great tour, we had it originally scheduled for April 2020, and well, you know what happened. We finally had our trip in June 2022. Our tour guide, George is a pro. He is a walking encyclopedia, amazing historian, able to to weave history/storytelling/personal anectodes/music and more into an amazing adventure. He is a skillful and careful driver, good communicator and overall a PRO. We did the 6 day tour and had a few days to ourselves in Dublin afterwards. I highly recommend this tour group. The organization was easy to deal with , they were very responsive to questions/requests/ and emails. My only criticism is that I did not really like the Clayton hotels where we stayed, particularly the one in Limerick. I also did not particularly like Limerick. However, I understood why the location was chosen (easy to get to/from for day trips). The hotel lacked comfort, and the buffet was fair. I do know everyone is short staffed, not just in USA( this was all over Ireland) so perhaps this impacted operations. I would also recommend more time in Galway (we had approx 2 hours). I think that is a town worth spending at least half a day in. Anyway, just food for thought. Highly recommend My Ireland Tours!!! You won't be sorry!

My mom and I really enjoyed this tour to Scotland and Ireland. Our tour guide Paddy was wonderful: nice, funny, knowledgeable, and on top of everything. Most of the hotels were awesome. Two of them were even castles, which was amazing. The activities were great, and we usually had some free time in the evening before dinner to either relax or explore the town on our own if we need more physical activity after spending a lot of time on the bus. The food was good. They fulfilled dietary requirements. The castles had amazing menus. My only minor complaint was by the end of the tour the meals were getting so repetitive. It felt like I ate 2 different meals over and over.

We used My Ireland Tours to take our first trip to Ireland and they made it better than we could have ever imagined. They took so much stress off of our plates when it came to booking hotels, travel, Covid protocol, and giving us the best tour guides. My whole family agrees that our driver Pat was a highlight of our experience! He was knowledgeable about everywhere we went and was great if we decided we wanted to do something on the fly, he would get it done for us! Our private bus was amazing, we joked that it was almost too comfortable because we always wanted to take a nap in it! We saw so much of Ireland and we know we couldn't have done that without My Ireland Tours. If you want to see all the sights of Ireland I fully recommend setting up a trip with My Ireland Tours and get Pat as your driver!

What negatives can there be on a tour that includes Guinness and Jameson's? Seriously, the tour far exceeded our expectations. We felt that we saw all the major sights of the Republic of Ireland. Our tour guide, George, was personable and knowledgeable; he went above and beyond. Even the (comp) lunch was the best fish and chips we ever had. We are showing our photos to everyone and will not hesitate to recommend myireland.

After our plans for a private family tour were delayed first by one, then two years due to covid, and the various issues that cropped up during that time. Kristel continued to work with us, making changes and being most helpful and encouraging. The wait was well worth it. We had an absolutely, special, amazing time seeing Ireland with our family. Sean O'Sulivan was the perfect driver/tour guide for our group. We made stops to try and discover some genealogy for multiple family members and Sean helped with researching some of those stops. He gave the right amount of information as he was driving, knowing when to talk and when not to. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tours. You won't be disappointed.

We did a 12-day private small group tour of Northern and the Republic of Ireland. Everything about it was a wonderful experience with My Ireland Tours and more specifically, David our driver/guide. We had ages from 14 to 70, and we all agreed this was the best family vacation we have ever taken. Kristel was flexible in planning and took in consideration all our points of interest in every location. Her attention to detail and time made every day run smoothly and we were able to see and do more that we thought possible. Can't say enough good things about David! He's a wonderful storyteller and has a wealth of information to share about his beautiful homeland- Ireland. We all commented that his surprise stops along the way coupled with pre-location information and relevant stories made every day special for our family. He is a tourist dream for a guide; professional, witty, pleasant, knowledgeable, flexible, and someone who seems to truly enjoy his job. Well done My Ireland Tours.

My daughter and I just returned from a 10 day tour of Ireland and Northern Ireland. Our travel agent, Kristel, planned the entire trip...flawlessly! Our accomodations were top notch! The tour itself was not only informative but absolutely breathtaking as our driver spent most of the drive on the coast. Our driver, Brian, could not have been any better. His stories were so interesting and on point to wherever we went. He obviously loves his country! I will spread the word about My Island Tours and how they made our trip absolutely PERFECT! And we never had to use an umbrella. The last 3 days were sunny and 70 F.

In April 2022, I was fortunate enough to visit Ireland by joining My Ireland Tours on the 10-day Deluxe Irish Castle Tour. What a beautiful country and amazing people. This was my first group tour, and I was pleasantly surprised, the group was so fun and very engaged. Our guide/driver was Austin Mc Ardle, he was highly informative and comical. I could not have asked for a better tour guide. Our castle stays were incredible, it would have made a tremendous difference if our guide stayed overnight with the group. This could have prevented a few hiccups within the hotels. The dinners were amazing and did not disappoint. Every stop was carefully planned and gave us ample time to tour and shop. My favorite stop was at a sheep farm, we observed a farmer and his use of sheep dogs. There were numerous stops throughout the country, and cultural experiences that I will remember for a lifetime. Thank you My Ireland Tours!

June 2022 • Deluxe Castles Tour
I am so excited to write this review for the Deluxe 10-day Irish Castle Tour with My Ireland Tours. This was a wonderful experience. I had the pleasure of having Mr. Austin Mc Ardle as my driver/tour guide, he was informative and experienced. My group consisted of twenty-four individuals, Austin brought our group together, and by the end of the tour, we were family. My Ireland Tours went beyond my expectations, the itinerary was carefully planned and well balanced. My only suggestion would be to have the guide stay overnight at the same castles the group stays in. It would assist with a few bugs that had to be worked out. This was my first trip to Ireland and My Ireland Tours made it so special, we were able to observe a sheep farmer, an Irish family crystal factory, a wool factory, and a handmade pottery factory. I must say, visiting these local businesses was my favorite part of the tour. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tours to my friends and family. Ireland was absolutely beautiful, and the people were charming. Brenda Damp

This review is for the 10 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland from May 9, 2022. From beginning to end this tour was incredible! Our fantastic driver-guide, George Connolly, was extremely knowledgeable on all things Ireland. He communicated information, shared interesting facts and kept us entertained as we traveled along. Each morning I looked forward to seeing those amazing places on our daily itinerary I had always wanted to see and experience for myself. There were no disappointments. George even arranged a sheep herding demonstration which will always remain a highlight of the Ring of Kerry. I chose wisely when I picked MyIreland Tour company to guide me on my first visit to this beautiful country.

Ireland is GORGEOUS. Loved all of the sights and the cities. Except for Limerick as someone stated below. Really the low light of the trip and they put you here for multiple days. Can't give any score much higher due to this poor planning. The guide George was outstanding. A gentle giant who was full of into the entire time and took on all questions. Wouldn't recommend this type of tour in the future unfortunately because of their poor hotels choice.

We booked the 10 Day Iconic Tour and could not be more pleased with the service, ease of booking, scheduling and communication. If you are planning to use a tour guide while visiting Ireland, you are missing out if you do not use My Ireland Tour. From the day we first booked, Shauni, our booking agent, was in constant contact with us and kept us informed of changes to COVID, restrictions, tour expectations, where to meet our tour guide, etc. Once we arrived in Ireland, our tour guide, Harry Fisher was exceptional. Even though we had a scheduled agenda, Harry would go off script if you will, and add sights or experiences we would have not had a clue about. His knowledge of Ireland, its history, politics, best pubs, food and anything we could think to ask him completely made the difference between a great experience and and exceptional experience. When we go back, we will try to plan our tour of North of Ireland when we know Harry will be on that tour. My Ireland Tour will exceed all your expectations and will make your trip to Ireland wanting you to go back immediately. We are one week removed from our tour and wanting to go back already because of the excellent service we received. Thank you My Ireland Tour for such a great experience and making our time in Ireland the best vacation we have taken.

We had a wonderful time on our trip. Our driver, Shelly, was sweet and accommodating. She kept us on schedule and suggested some other activities that we enjoyed. However, I was disappointed in the amount of information provided as a tour guide. Very little was offered in this area. Our expectation was that our driver would also be a knowledgeable guide but the tour fell short in this area. Also, our schedule in Dublin was changed and we weren't aware of it. A few members of our party really wanted to go to the book of Kells and Trinity College which was on our original itinerary but was changed at some point without our knowledge. However, our tour guide worked it into our schedule but it made for a rushed and long day. All in all, it was a fun trip!

My family and I returned from our My Ireland Tour last week. The 6 of us had an amazing time. It was a 2020 bucket list reschedule for my Father-In-Law who turned 87 on the trip and has roots in Ireland. This was all of our first trip and we absolutely loved every minute. Austin was an amazing guide, insightful, informative, kind and fun. He made a special treat of my Father-In -Laws birthday at our final dinner making the trip that much more memorable. The hotels and service were wonderful throughout, and the special lunches and tours were fabulous. We hope to come again, maybe see the North, and would definitely book with this company again. (And hope for Austin to still be driving!) Organized, professional and responsive to emails, calls and questions and suggestions. Lovely trip all around.

Our 10-Day Iconic tour May 18th 2022 was our 1st group tour we have taken as we have always traveled independently. I can not say enough about our tour guide and driver, Harry Fisher. He was very knowledgeable and very attentive, as well as his sense of humor. The hotels were 4 star. I must say that the dinners at each of the restaurants were all very similar, so was not a big fan of that. Harry was able to get us into Guinness right away when the line was around the block. He took great care in making sure each of us were taken care of and was always available. It was nice that we had a small group of 19 and all had good seating on the bus. We would highly recommend this trip to others that want to see Ireland for the 1st time and have a tour with a personal touch. Thank you for making our 25th wedding anniversary memorable.

The guide Pat Cooney was fantastic great driver and outstanding guide. He was informative cheerful and entertaining he even sung Irish songs for us. The accommodations were first class and the tours were varied and informative. We learned a lot about the Irish people and their customs.

My group and I requested a private tour, some specific destinations, and flexibility. We got all that and so much more. The superb communication - before, during, and after the tour, the (mostly) superb accommodations, and our PHENOMENAL driver, Patrick B., made this trip simply fantastic. The people we met, the places we saw, the history we learned, and the friendship begun, makes 'My Ireland Tour' simply the MUST GO TO company for any small, intimate tour of this gorgeous country. We cannot say enough good things about our coordinator - Kristel, or our guide, Patrick!! If you're teetering on the edge about go/no go, or which company to go with - I'll make it simple -- GO with MY IRELAND TOUR!!!

I took the 10 day tour in late May. I thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience. Accomodations, food and service top notch. Even though we visited many sites throughout the trip, it never felt rushed. Harry Fisher an excellent driver/tour guide. Many on the tour felt that he made the tour. I would agree. I am now encouraging my daughter and son-in-law to travel to Ireland with this same tour company.

My husband and I recently returned from the six-day Iconic Ireland Tour, which we had signed up for to celebrate our fortieth wedding anniversary. It did not disappoint! Neither of us had been to Ireland before, and found it very interesting, engaging, and beautiful. Our driver/guide, Kieran, was knowledgeable, flexible, and very fun. I felt that it was a nice mix of 'tour and visit' time plus adequate 'on-your-own' time. It was also an excellent mix of participants--different ages, different backgrounds. I really appreciated that. In addition, I was impressed by how quickly the tour company got back to me whenever I had questions. All in all, for many reasons, it was a great trip! Thanks so much for a wonderful and memorable experience, 'My Ireland Tours.'

5 Stars is not enough. Our group had a fantastic time touring Scotland, Northern Ireland and Ireland. Accommodations were good topped off with a stay at Harvey's Point Resort. The person who brought it all together was our guide Pat. He wove the history of the island along with fascinating storytelling into an amazing trip. One of our best trips ever! Thank You My Ireland Tours and especially Pat!

This was our first trip to Ireland and our castle tour was incredible! My Ireland Tour did a wonderful job of putting together interesting sights to see. Our driver, George, a proud Irishman, who graciously shared his knowledge of Irish history. By the end of our tour, George felt like an old friend. We learned so much. Such a beautiful country!

The 10 day tour was great. Having been to Ireland several times but self driving, this tour allowed us to see more of Ireland than we could have by driving. Once we got through the chaos of the arrival hall of Dublin Airport and met up with our driver/tour guide (Austin), it was quite an educational and exciting experience. Austin's knowledge of the history of Ireland and sites on the tour was exceptional.

My husband and I just returned from our 14 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. This was our first trip to Ireland and we had a wonderful time. Our tour guide/driver was John Boylan and he was excellent - not only did he skillfully maneuver the coach through narrow streets, he did it while telling stories and singing! He was quite entertaining. We got to see quite a bit of the natural beauty of Ireland and learned of the culture and history. All of our guides on our tours was friendly and knowledgeable. The hotels we stayed in were top notch, especially Dunboyne Castle hotel which was beautiful. The food was excellent, although it would have been nice to try some local restaurants in the areas. We highly recommend this tour - especially for first time visitors.

Definitely a FIVE star experience. My brother and I did the castle tour and it was everything, plus more, The tour is fantastic (today is our last day of the tour). Of course, the tour is only as good as our tour guide and coach driver. George was our man and he is great!!! Shared quite a bit of Irish history and pointed out a lot of things as we drove by. I highly recommend that if you are going to Ireland, seek out My Ireland Tour!

We had a fantastic trip with Liam and Adrian. This was our first trip to Ireland, and they gave us a memorable introduction to this magical island. We were on the 6 day tour, and learned so much! The tour coach was very comfortable and spacious, hotels were super as well. Liam and Adrian went above and beyond to make everyone's experience personal. We can't thank you enough for sharing your home with us!

This is our second tour of Ireland which also included time in Scotland (Edinburgh and Glascow). Our accommodations, for the most part, were very good with the highlight being Harvey's Point in Donegal. Our driver and tour guide, Pat, made the experience very special. His understanding and depth of knowledge of the people and history of Ireland are exceptional. He was able to put into context the complicated history of Ireland and made travel to every destination an adventure. We also appreciated his Irish wit. We highly recommend My Ireland Tours. Well done!

I took my son on the 10-day iconic tour and we had an amazing time. The country is beautiful and the people are welcoming and friendly. My Ireland Tours and our driver/tour guide, Tom were both extraordinary. Everything went smoothly, from pickup at the airport, to all of our hotels, food, tours, and time on the coach made for a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Tom's experience and insight into the country, both historically and currently, made the trip even more enjoyable. I would recommend this company to my friends and family.

May 2022 • Deluxe Castles Tour
I was on the 10 day Deluxe Castle Tour in May, 2022. Overall I was very satisfied with the tour. Our driver guide (Tony) was professional, friendly, helpful, and informative. There is a lot of riding on this tour, but despite suffering from a recent back injury I found the seats to be very comfortable, and there were great views out the windows. The 'castle' hotels we stayed in were wonderful--and for me, a highlight of this tour were the luxury accommodations. This was a very 'busy' tour. If you are interested in anything you see listed in the itinerary you may want to contact 'My Ireland Tour' in advance to find out how much time will be spent there, for in some places less than an hour is allocated. There is a bit of walking and stairs at some of the sites--I am a 'senior' and managed these easily. I do not recommend this particular tour for children. Also good to know--communication with the company prior to the tour was fantastic. We'd originally booked this just before Covid shut everything down, and ended up having to change our tour date 4 times before we were able to finally take the tour. During all of this time the company kept us informed of the 'covid situation', and any questions we had prior to the tour were quickly answered.

We just completed a 10 day Iconic Scenic Tour. It was fantastic. We were scheduled to go Aprill 2020, then Covid ended it. My Ireland Tour (Eric) worked with us to reschedule for April 2022. Tony McGoey was our driver and tour guide. Tony made this vacation enjoyable and fun. Tony can be best described as a comedian, historian, singer, and storyteller. He went out of his way to accommodate his passengers. We can't say enough about him. The food and hotels exceeded our expectations. The tour stops and photo opportunities were great. The last night we went to a dinner show which featured Irish dancers and singers. It was the best dinner show I have ever been too. If you are plannng a trip to Ireland, contact My Ireland Tour.

The My Ireland Tour was more than I had expected! We saw so many interesting things. The demonstrations of pottery making and cutting crystal glass was amazing. I came away with a greater understanding and appreciation for those talents.The trek up the spiral stone staircase inside the Blarney Castle was a once in a lifetime experience for me. I told myself I would not kiss the Blarney Stone- but once up there I just had to! The Sheep dog demonstration was amazing! And ringing the bell in Christ Church Cathedral's bell tower was exhilarating. Paddy, our Driver/Guide was awesome! he told us stories and played some good Irish music for us while on the coach. It was evident that his knowledge and love of Ireland was immense. We were all very comfortable and had some great laughs with him. The food and accommodations were great; And the music and dance shows were a lot of fun too! I came away with a good understanding of Irelands history and patriotism of the Irish people. What a beautiful country!

May 2022 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
My trip to Scotland and Ireland was a dream I have had for many years. My Ireland Tours did NOT disappoint. The accommodations were excellent, as was the food. I could not have asked for a better tour guide than Paddy. He was one of the best bus drivers I have every had, which was vitally important due to the narrow roads, especially through some of the smaller towns. He gave us a vivid picture of the history of Scotland and Ireland, while adding personal stories, explaining local lore and culture. In addition, Paddy listened to the members of the tour. He broke up some of the long drives as best he could, so we could stretch our legs and take pictures. He was patient and somehow was always in good spirits. This tour has only whetted my appetite to return to these beautiful countries and experience places we were unable to go. You absolutely cannot go wrong with My Ireland Tours, especially if you are lucky enough to have Paddy as your guide. Well worth every dime spent.

May 2022 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
Outstanding!!!!! In a one word description. I took the 14 day Scotland/Ireland tour. This was my 1st trip abroad as a solo traveler so there was much research before I booked this trip. MyIrelandTour has a very fair Covid policy if you need to change your plans so I took the plunge, made final payment & never looked back. Anytime I emailed the company they responded almost immediately. Any questions were answered so I felt very comfortable boarding that plane & making my way across the ocean. I was greeted by our driver Paddy at Edinburgh Airport. Myself & a few others had arrived for pickup. At our first hotel even though it was very early for check in, the hotel was able to get all of us into our rooms. This was so appreciated after the flight. From the driver/guide to the group to the 3-5 star accommodations. The meals, the sites we visited, the scenery when traveling & the knowledge of Paddy & a couple other Step-on Guides made this trip an unforgettable experience I will never forget. It has set the bar very high for any future tours I may take. Key take aways- Mad driving skills by our driver Paddy. Got us where we needed to be on time & safe. Learned so much history from Paddy. He gave enough information but did not talk continuously. He knows the history of the lands. Played some good local music. Did I mention Paddy!!! Just can not say enough great things about him. He is a gem. Our group-could not have asked for a better group to travel with. There were several other solo travelers. Small group but large bus so we could spread out. Max group size is 26, we had 24. Accommodations, clean, friendly staff, welcoming. Restaurants served good food. Always a good selection for your breakfast & dinner. Dinners were all 3 course. Alcoholic beverages are not included. All hotels had a bar. The places we visited were all very interesting & very beautiful. Many we had time to wonder on our own. Quiant little towns. Live Irish show on our last night was entertaining. If you have been considering a visit to this area I highly recommend this tour company. I will definitely use again if I go back.

May 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
Ireland has been at the top of my 'must see' travel destinations my entire life. I originally booked my trip for October, 2020 but the pandemic delayed it. So when I finally arrived in Ireland in May, 2022 my expectations and excitement were extremely high. I was NOT disappointed. I enjoyed every minute of the experience from the moment the My Ireland Tour guide picked me up at Dublin Airport to the moment he returned me to Dublin 10 days later. All aspects of my tour were handled deftly, allowing me to just sit back and enjoy. Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, always accessible and incredibly helpful. He clearly loves Ireland and was generous in answering our questions and helping us truly experience the country, its history and its culture. I chose My Ireland Tour because the tour package offered me exactly what I was looking for on my first trip - a sampling of the most beautiful places in the country. Each place we visited represented the most amazing part of Ireland. I learned so much and I now know exactly the places I want to visit again (which I plan to do with this tour company!). And though I wish I could have spent more time at each destination, that's not a reflection of the tour but rather a reflection of what I was able to see that made me want to stay and see more. I never felt rushed on to the next stop or that I was missing out on something special. Every moment was special. The accommodations were excellent and exactly what I'd hoped for on a tour deemed a 'deluxe castle' tour. The food was phenomenal and the shopping plentiful. I cannot say enough good things about the tour, the tour guide, the My Ireland Tour company staff or the entire experience. I would highly recommend this to travelers who are taking their first trip to the country, as I was. But I would happily use My Ireland Tour on my next visit as well because they make it so easy to just enjoy yourself and they alleviate the worry of having to do all the planning, driving, etc. This was absolutely the experience I was hoping for.

After a long overnight flight we were greeted in Dublin by Liam Finnegan, he welcomed all 13 of us with a big smile and we were off and running. Our tour of the North of Ireland was amazing. We saw everything on our list and more. Liam took care of everything, from breaks, to checking us in at the Titanic Museum. We learned so much about Ireland on the drive to multiple stops. The tour arranges to have local guides get on the bus and explain about the history of each area we were in. Our hotels were great and you can't beat a good Irish Breakfast. Booking was enjoyable with Eric in the office , despite us having to Cancel and re book our stay 3 times due to Covid he was always happy to accommodate. The bus was clean , spacious and very comfortable. I would highly recommend using My Ireland Tour

From the very first enquiry to the last farewell to Paddy our Driver-Guide I have nothing but the highest praise for My Ireland Tour and the employees. Every question was very quickly answered, every concern was quickly and efficiently dealt with. Things happened as they should, when they should. A Covid testing unit was arranged at the last accommodation for those requiring clearance before returning home. Accommodations and meals were first class. We felt very welcome everywhere. Paddy is a coach driver extraordinaire, knows just what to tell his guests and when and is altogether a wonderful guide. I would gladly deal and travel with My Ireland Tour again.

Our tour of Scotland and Ireland was fabulous. Our tour guide Paddy was so informative, kind, humorous and accommodating. The stories he told gave us insight to so much more of the history of such remarkable, historical, beautiful sights! The hotels were very comfortable and the food amazing. We toured with a great group of people! I would highly recommend My Ireland Tours to anyone! It was a trip of a lifetime! Thank you Paddy for making our memories ones that will never be forgotten!
Taylor Marie
May 2022 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
Where to begin in describing the once-in-a-lifetime experience I had with My Ireland Tour? I suppose, at the beginning. As I was planning my first trip to Ireland, I was starting to get a bit overwhelmed with where to stay, what to see, what car to rent, and how I would handle driving on the other side of the road while on the other side of the car! (Americans, am I right?) I began searching “Ireland solo traveler tips' when, as if sent from the fairies themselves, the My Ireland Tour website popped up. As I perused through the stunning photos and perfectly-detailed itineraries, I had the growing excitement that this should be the way I first experience the Emerald Isle. From the moment I booked my tour (10 day iconic scenes), through my final days, this company was thorough and communicative and helpful. Everything was coordinated for me to the T. On day 1 I met my tour guide Tom (and some other Tour travelers) at the airport and could immediately tell we were all truly in for an incredible adventure. The tour bus was clean and spacious, and the hotels were top-notch with delicious food and drink (though do NOT try to order a vodka martini). Every location we visited was a smooth check-in as our tour guide had obtained all tickets/passes needed, and he made sure to have us arrive at these locations in perfect timing for the smallest crowds. As a regular solo-traveler, I was a bit worried about not having autonomy on a tour like this, but at many locations we were given a time to return to the bus and some recommendations on places to eat/drink/explore, and so we could head off on our own or stick with the group (though I got lucky in having possibly the most fun group of strangers ever to be tossed together, and we typically stuck together). As we traveled, our tour guide Tom gave us just enough information to keep us interested and educated, but not so much as to be boring or obnoxious. He also added in a few impromptu stops to see sights and meet people that I never would have if I'd traveled on my own. He consistently kept us all updated on times for dinner, arrival, departure, etc. and was readily available to us should we have a concern or need. He even helped keep an eye out for a nice, Irish farmer for me to marry (but alas, we were unsuccessful). I truly can't stop shouting from the rooftops about the STELLAR experience I had with My Ireland Tour, and am beyond grateful for this experience with their group.

May 2022 • Discover Northern Ireland
Delayed by the pandemic, we've finally been able to take our THIRD tour with My Ireland Tour. This time we went to Northern Ireland and the experience was as wonderful, if not more so, than our previous two tours. As has been the case in all of our previous tours with My Ireland Tours, the superb service came into play even before our trip began. The staff provided all of the assistance we needed to arrange our journey and guided us skillfully through all of the new processes and procedures for travel. The tour itself was absolutely delightful! Our driver / guide, Garey, was knowledgeable and entertaining. He demonstrated great skill driving the coach on the sometimes narrow roads of the countryside and through the congestion and tight quarters on the cities. The schedule provided ample time to enjoy each of the sites that we visited and the walking tour of Derry was a highlight of the tour. We continue to prefer My Ireland Tour because of the value for money, excellent customer service, well crafted tours, smaller group sizes and superb driver / guides. When it comes time for our fourth visit, we won't look to any other tour company for our travel needs!

We did the 10-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour for our honeymoon. From arrival to departure, it was an amazing experience. Our driver/guide Tom was phenomenal, always available for any questions or concerns & an expert driver! (You should have seen his parking skills with a 42ft tour coach!) his knowledge on Ireland, it's history and modern events was second to none. We had a fantastic time and we will 100% recommend My Ireland Tour to anyone and everyone!

My wife and I had a terrific time on our first trip to Ireland. With several tour companies to choose from, we were extremely happy with My Ireland Tour (Deluxe Irish Castle Tour), who provided great communication and treated us with courtesy and professionalism from start to finish. We were very pleased with our experienced tour guide and coach driver, Mr. McArdle, who shared a wealth of knowledge of Ireland's interesting history and culture--he struck the perfect balance in sharing education, humor, personal insights and stories. He tirelessly made sure we were all taken care of and had a memorable experience. The hotel accommodations exceeded expectations and the food was first class. With only (10) days in the tour, I felt we were given an excellent overview of the country and culture along with many interesting stops while still having time to explore on our own. I highly recommend this trip to anyone who has Ireland on the bucket list!

May 2022 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
My husband and I just came home from My Ireland's 10 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland and could not be happier. Our trip was simply wonderful as it included everything we could possibly want and see during the allotted time period. Our 15 person group had loads of space in the large bus and the various sites were well selected at a good pace. However, I truly believe that it was our tour guide, Harry Fisher that made this one of the best trips we have ever experienced. He was an excellent driver, extremely knowledgeable and often very funny! He included several unplanned stops, including a Garden of Remembrance dedicated to the firefighters killed on 9/11. I will always remember his frequent expression but that's Okay which was applied to anything that could possibly be a glitch in our tour - not that there were any real problems. Most of us were close to tears as we said goodbye. Harry made this a truly memorable experience!

This was my first trip to Ireland and it was truly incredible. The tour was exceptionally well organized and all the sites which were chosen by the company were spectacular. Our guide Ben Sullivan made this trip both unique and entertaining. He is a Renaissance Man. He interlocks Irish history with personally meaningful events. He has a beautiful singing voice, is a skilled driver, and knows how to create group cohesion. He accommodated the group by adjusting schedules as needed and made everyone feel welcome. I typically don't do tour groups as I prefer solo travel however this trip went above and beyond my expectations. I only wish I stayed at least 10 days, but hopefully next time.

My very first trip with my ireland tours..booked a northern Ireland tour with them..was a little apprehensive as being a single elderly lady traveling on my own was not sure how it would be..I can't tell you it was one of the best tours I have taken..from the very start..the prompt interaction with eric via email was very reasureing as all my questions were answered promptly..it was good to be met by our guide/driver Garry at dublin airport..after that it was smooth sailing all the way to Northern Ireland! He took good care of us and gave us a full insight into the Irish way of life with stories and historical details of the places we visited..we were kept at very good comfortable hotels each night..all in all..a great memorable trip..will definitely book with them again..many thanks

We recently did the 6 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland 2022. It was excellent. Ben was a fantastic guide and driver. They were really accommodating, even dropped us in Dublin after a trip so we did not need to get an Uber. The Clayton Hotel was great, their breakfast was amazing. We loved every stop and every scenic view on this our. Ben was entertaining and a very good singer. He can tell you everything about his country and his home town. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to get their first glimpse of Ireland. We packed it in. The Jameson tour was awesome and I don't even care about Whiskey. Now I am drinking Jameson and Ginger with a splash of lime. The drive is so relaxing I was able to catch up on my sleep and felt so comfortable. I cannot say enough positive things. We are usually cruisers this was our first tour and we will be back to take another one with them! Just do it!!!!!

I wouldn't try to tour Ireland without this tour company. They excelled from day 1. Roomy, clean, reliable transportation. Our tour driver (David) was like a family member on the trip and we miss him! He was very punctual and accommodating. He knew loads of Irish history to keep the tour interesting and able to read the group to know when we just needed rest. He was an excellent driver and we felt very safe. The included tours, hotels, and breakfast were top notch!!! We will be back !!!

Absolutely the best tour of the Highlights of Ireland in 14 days in April 2022. Our driver Ben Sullivan made it his priority to take care of our small group of 11 in a professional manner. He told us so many great stories about the history of Ireland and Northern Ireland...even taught us an Irish song (The Parting Glass) and his sense of humor was next to none. All of our hotels were comfortable with plenty of food to eat. We even saw a day- old foal at the National Stud. If anyone is thinking of touring Ireland, I would highly recommend My Ireland Tours.

Our 10 day Deluxe Irish Castle Tour was a wonderful introduction to Ireland's beautiful scenery, culture, and friendly people. We had a terrific tour guide, Austin McCardle, who helped us understand the complicated history of Ireland but also regaled us with humorous stories of everyday life. There was a nice mix of travel, free time to explore on our own, scaling old ruins, learning about weaving and crystal making, elegant accommodations, and delicious food. We felt well taken care of from start to finish.

My recent 10 day Iconic Scenes tour was brilliant. Tom was amazing with his excellent driving skills, a very smooth ride all the way and how he negotiated those tight corners had the admiration of us all. His knowledge of everywhere we went was spot on and the history I'd learnt at school suddenly made sense.. I particularly enjoyed it when he spoke about Ireland today, education, health, taxes, rural life, the day to day life of the Irish. The food was delicious and plentiful and the hotels were very comfortable. I give myirelandtours and particularly Tom 10/10

Mr. Ben Sullivan was our tour guide, a talented man full of songs, stories and facts of where we visited. Ben was gracious to stop at a small county road where our great-grandfather lived and photographed us there. Thank you for that, Ben. Looking forward to my next tour with this great Tour Company.

Such a great trip! We did the Deluxe Castles tour and it exceeded our expectations. The itinerary and pacing were perfect. Our accommodations--both the coach and the lodging, were top-notch and the dinners (pre-selected menus with several choices for appetizer, main course and dessert) were delicious and beautiful. We learned SO MUCH about Ireland's political, cultural and religious history. Our guide and driver was Austin McArdle and he was a wealth of information. He was organized, professional and shared a few stories of his upbringing that offered a little more context to what we were learning. A few of us especially appreciated his help with questions about covid testing locations. He volunteered to do a little homework so we could coordinate our test with the tour itinerary. It was just a delightful, well-organized experience from start to finish.

We did the 10 day tour and it was FANTASTIC!! It was laid back enough that we didn't feel rushed but we saw so much! Our tour guide, Tom, was very knowledgeable and helpful and answered any question we had. He was available night and day and was quick to respond if we need anything. The hotels were fantastic and almost all were centrally located so you could explore the city in your downtime. The only issue we had was that it seemed like we had the same food options at every dinner, but again, Tom was quick to ask the hotel to give us some different options.

We would definitely do it again!! Fabulous

April 2022 • My Ireland Tour Package
This was a wonderful introduction to Ireland. All of our interactions with the company prior to the trip were exemplary. We especially appreciated their handling the return home Covid tests. A major highlight of the trip was our driver/guide Tony McGoey. A true gentleman with a great knowledge of Irish history which he imparted during the trip and, his great sense of humor. He took great care of all of us and we enjoyed chatting with him throughout the journey. Highlights of the trip for us included the visit to Clonmacnoise which has great history and great opportunities for pictures. A stop at the Kerry Bog Village with its historical buildings and equipment, goats and Irish Wolf Hounds, and of course the glass of Irish coffee were fun. In Dublin the visit to the Irish Emigration Museum and Christ Church Cathedral were stunning, and educational. I could go on, but I will refrain and simply recommend that this particular tour will give you an excellent view of what Ireland has to offer and will whet your appetite for a return trip.

I did the 5 night tour focusing on the sights of Ireland. Mr Colm Marshall was my tour guide and he was great! Loved his sense of humor and his knowledge of Irish history. This was my first time in Ireland and I'm in love with the country. From Dublin to the countryside, this tour covered excellent ground in the time given. I will definitely be back!

Driver: Our driver Colm, was super fun, very intelligent, gave us interesting information throughout the trip about what we were seeing and the history of places, and basically made the trip better for everyone. He gave recommendations on restaurants, shopping locations and local things to see. He fit right in with our small group, and we had lots of laughs together. He has a VERY good sense of humor and we just loved him. Our entire group was very happy with Colm! Hotels: The hotels that we stayed at were amazing. We couldn't have been more pleased with our accommodations. The hotels were expecting us and the dinners that we had reserved at the hotels were amazing. Confirming Reservations: They re-checked reservations so we didn't have any unexpected surprises not getting into a place that we were scheduled. There were probably 5-8 different places that Colm called the day before to make sure that our reservation was set. Made for a very easy and stress-free trip. Transportation: The bus was clean and comfortable for our trip. Colm spiffed it up daily and bought water and diet coke to keep in the frig. The bus was easy to identify and made travel much nicer. All of us could just be passengers and watch the world go by. Also, because we were up higher than a normal car, it made for better viewing of the scenery. Tour Company – They did a fantastic job of writing up an itinerary that would work for us. They took time explaining some neat options in the itinerary that offered a richer experience. We followed the itinerary as much as our energy would allow. Colm pointed out other interesting stops that we might find interesting, which enhanced our trip. Covid Test – Our driver helped us locate a covid testing facility and made the testing process less time consuming and painless (well,,, except the part of swabbing the nose canal, which he had nothing to do with). All in all, we loved Colm, the hotel stays, traveling around the country, etc. It was a trip of a lifetime, and we couldn't have been more pleased. Jenn, Scott, Steph and Woody (AKA the Fun Group)

Our tour with Paddy as our driver/guide, was wonderful. From the start, My Ireland Tour, and everyone involved in helping us plan and book our tour, went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our first visit to Ireland. Kristel helped us book a private tour for a party of 6, we told her about this being our first visit to Ireland, what we liked and looked forward to, and she absolutely delivered! The itinerary was everything we hoped for. Paddy was an absolute gem! He made our trip so enjoyable, sprinkled our time together with stories, Irish music, unexpected stops for sightseeing, and lots of laughter, such a joy to have him as our travel companion. For anyone thinking about booking a tour to Ireland, look no further, My Ireland Tour is the way to go! Thank you for making our trip so memorable!

Our tour with Tony as our driver/guide was wonderful. After researching different tours and tour companies during the Covid lockdown we decided on My Ireland Tour. We are so happy with that decision. We went all over the Republic of Ireland. All breakfasts and Dinners were included. That may not seem like a big deal, but it is! After a long day of touring and sightseeing coming back to the hotel and knowing where you were going to eat was a great relief. The food was very good and plentiful. All of the entrance fees were included in the tour price. We had private guides in many of the attractions. We never had to stand in line. Tony our guide was a wealth of knowledge about Ireland. While on the bus he pointed out things along the way that were interesting. An added bonus was Tony could sing! He taught us many Irish songs to sing while on the bus. What great fun! If you want a great tour of Ireland go with My Ireland Tour you will not be disappointed!

Booked a 6-day private tour for myself and my teenage daughter; could not have asked for a better experience. The booking process was straight forward. I was able to partner with MyIrelandTour to curate the perfect vacation. Their customer service representative stayed in communication with me pre-trip and kept me up-to-date on all protocols and next steps. Our driver guide, Tom, was a gem; knowledgeable, professional and kind - he went above and beyond to ensure our safety and saw to it that our expectations were met. 10/10 would highly recommend and will definitely use their services again on our next trip.

Our trip to Ireland using My Ireland Tours was amazing! We had never been overseas before and weren't sure how to go about planning a trip. I came across their sight and upon seeing the itinerary for the 10 day tour and the reviews from previous customers it sold me on this trip. They were very good about keeping us up to date on COVID changes and were very responsive to our emails answering any questions we had. Not only did we have an amazing time in Ireland on this tour but our tour guide, Tony, was wonderful! He was full of Irish knowledge, past and present, he told the best jokes and he even sang us some Irish songs! He has the voice of an angel 😇 I will 100% recommend this tour company to anyone wanting to vacation in Ireland.

Loved it! As a first timer for visiting Ireland we couldn't have been happier. Tom Lavin our tour guide was so good I cannot imagine anyone being better! He went above and beyond to ensure our safety and our enjoyment while in Ireland. We covered so many Counties and beautiful country while touring with My Ireland Tours it was amazing! We experienced St. Patrick's Day in Cork and saw Cliffs of Moher and everything was better than we imagined. Thank you to My Ireland Tours and Tom for making our trip truly magical.

My Ireland Tour was wonderful from start to finish. Eric and his team worked collaboratively to plan an itinerary with us and provided us useful recommendations for how to get the most out of our trip. Every hotel, meal, and excursion they planned were fantastic. And our driver David was a 10/10 guide that made our journey with a group of 7 adults and 1 baby seamless, filled with local facts/history, and fun! A trip to be remembered.

My daughter and I did the 14 day Iconic tour. It was our dream vacation and well worth it. In Northern Ireland our driver/guide had a local guide find the place where my wee nanny was born. We signed the peace wall. Every city every town was so beautiful and our guide/driver knew so much. He also keep us laughing. If an issue arises, My Ireland Tour team were right on it. The hotels we stayed at were perfect, the food was perfect (this coming from someone who is allergic to just about everything. My daughter has a dairy allergy and gluten intolerant and the hotels knew this before we even arrived) for the first time on vacation I didn't have to worry about food. Our driver even went off the beaten path so we could really get to see the locals and the land. He would always stop for a “Kodak' moment. Then the scheduled destinations like the Ring of Kerry, The distilleries (Bush Mills & Jameson) and so were outstanding. My Ireland Tour really knew how to put a package together to suit everyone one's interests. Well done!

This trip was high on my bucket list. I could not be more pleased. We had a small group, a GREAT guide (Tony), and nice hotels throughout the ten day tour. I hope to return again, and if/when I do, I will book with MyIrelandTour again. I loved every minute of my trip.

March 2022 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
I did the 10 day iconic scenic tour of Ireland and I had Tony as my driver. This was their first tour in 2.5 years and I told Tony that this was honestly my favorite holiday I have ever had and it truthfully was. My wife and I learned so much about Ireland and the views were more beautiful than I imagined. I will definitely do another tour with this company again in the future, likely a Northern Ireland/Scotland tour. The only thing that I would watch is the itinerary on your last day and what time you schedule your departure flight because our very last thing was a traditional Irish music night that ended a little after 10:00pm and my wife and my flight was at 6:00am so we went on 3 hours of sleep but it was still an amazing tour and amazing trip.

We got our trip to Ireland fixed in early 2020 planned to be started in May 2020. Due to the well known circumstances we managed to realise it only in September 2021. During this whole period we were in touch with Eric O'Gormann, permanently informed about the actual situation. Our tour finally took place as planned and we could benefit from an experienced tour-guide taking care of us (non native English-speakers). The private tour allowed us not only to be briefed as usual, but also to ask questions, all answered by our guide George profoundly and competently. In addition most of the touristic hotspots were well accessible and we didn't miss the crowds. These seven days trough southern Ireland were really great - even if we missed the full Irish experience (not even one rainy day!).

We booked and paid in full for a private tour for family and friends for August 2020. As we all know that wasn't going to happen :( we hoped 2021 we would still be able to go, unfortunately it just wasn't a good time. They offered a full refund in March 2020 but we decided to take the risk and not ask for a refund then. In February 2021 with a heavy heart we asked for a refund, we received every cent back in just a few short days. I'd like to start by saying Kristel was fabulous through the entire process of booking and eventually cancellation. My husband communicated regularly with her to add things we would like to see and to get updates once the world was hit with COVID-19. The professionalism, transparency and kindness this company showed us should be commended. Without a doubt when my family is able to travel to Ireland we will use this company. Honestly I could not sing enough praise for Kristel and My Ireland Tours do not hesitate to book with this company.

We had an absolutely stellar time. Kevin O'Sullivan was our guide and he is really just an angel. A sweet, knowledgeable, patient man who is funny to boot. Absolutely couldn't ask for more. The bus was clean and safe and Kevin pointed out everything along the ways ti our destination. We invited him to dinner with us one night and we really all had such a blast. Thank you so so much!

My husband and I took the 8 person 8-day Dingle tour. Our driver and guide was the lovely David O'Neil. He was wonderful, patient and answered all of our questions. A great driver and a great guide; teaching us all about Irish history, culture and landscapes. The accommodations were wonderful. The food was great. The tours were informative and fun. If you are interested in taking this tour we recommend that you arrive a day or 2 earlier if you need to adjust to the time change. Would book again in a heartbeat. Thanks!

I recently had the pleasure of traveling to Ireland on the 10 day Iconic Ireland tour. I rarely write reviews, but I just had to share my thoughts. I had never traveled with this tour company, and didn't know anyone who had. The entire trip was truly an exceptional experience. The hotels, the 3 course dinners ,the itinerary and excursions were well chosen and thoughtfully planned. The highlight of our trip was guide/driver Tony. I can't sing his praises enough. Tony was wonderful in every way. He deeply cared that everyone should be safe, happy, and have an awesome time in Ireland, and that we did. Tony's knowledge of Ireland was exemplary. He brought the culture and history of Ireland to life. My Ireland tours has thought about and planned this tour very well. Bravo!

We did the north and south tours in October 2019. We had a different guide/driver for each trip and both were excellent. Very knowledgeable and pleasant. Hotel accomodations were very good and food was adequate. Food menus for dinner were basically the same at each hotel. We did choose to eat out a few times to have some variety. The bus was comfortable and clean. We dealt with Martina and she was very helpful answering all our questions. Great service from the all the staff we dealt with. We would highly recommend My Ireland Tours if you're planning on travelling to Ireland.

We just got home from our tour of the northern half of Ireland and we had a fabulous time! I had contacted My Ireland re their 8 day tour - but because it was late in the season they advised that they were not running the 8 person tour anymore — but would our group of 3 like to do it as a private tour? I was worried about the cost but they shaped our tour by suggesting we finish in Dublin for the last two days on our own (ie self-guided rather than a driver/guide)— which made it fit our budget. It was perfect!! Eric modified a few things as per our request - he could not have been more accommodating! Off we set with our wonderful driver/ guide Ger Murphy - he was terrific! Great stories - great little spots that he knew - he made sure we got to see everything we wanted to see. I have some issues walking and so having Ger pick us up, drive right to the best spots, and drive us through scenic routes was wonderful. He was so kind and thoughtful. Two local guides that were arranged for Derry and Belfast were excellent - we learned so much - and to see the murals close up - amazing. Ger made sure we got to see the wild Atlantic Way, and when a manor house we were scheduled to tour was not available - he quickly arranged for another - we were more than satisfied. We would absolutely book with My Ireland again — and Ger - we miss your smiling face and good humour!

First and foremost, the driver/guide can make or break a trip like this. There is a lot of travel on the bus to see all the wonderful sites Ireland has to offer. Having the right driver is essential to a successful trip. My driver, Tony McGoey, was absolutely the best. He was totally competent behind the wheel even in the worst traffic and intermittent rain downpours. He was such a 'mother hen' to our group (in a good way) making sure we knew exactly where to go and what to do at each stop. Reminding us to take our coats and umbrellas. Cautioning us of potential dangers at certain sights such as uneven ground or areas with no rails. I honestly think he 'waited up' in the hotel lobby one night when some of us decided to venture into town on our own in small groups. Tony filled the time between stops by providing us interesting information about Ireland's political structure, education system, medical services, and more. He even taught us an Irish song and tutored us in clapping so we could participate in one of the evening events later in the tour. Having a comfortable, roomy, reliable bus is also essential. The buses appear to be new. Very clean and comfortable. On board bathroom and Tony kept water available as well. Huge windows so it was easy to see the sights. We stayed at four different hotels, all first class accommodations with on premises dining. A couple of them had a full service spa and I believe two had a pool. All hotels had a bar. Wifi Internet service was available in all hotels as well. Be aware, a room with two beds has one queen or king and one twin. Beds, bedding, linens, and towels were all good quality. Plenty of pillows as well. Hair dryer in every room. But, not one bathroom had any kind of electric plug except for a shaver. Provided meals had many options to choose from. Breakfasts were all buffet with the expected Irish breakfast fare options and much more. Dinners were three course with typically three Appetizer choices, three Entree choices and either a dessert medley or a couple of dessert options. As for the tour stops, I cannot imagine a tour that could have been any more comprehensive than this one. We stopped at all the Irish points of interest I had heard of and many more I had not. Plenty of bathroom/refreshment stops. I honestly cannot think of anything negative to say about this tour.

Wonderful 15 Day Tour of Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. The bus was very comfy, with power and WiFi at every seat. The hotels were ALL lovely with large breakfasts and very good dinners. The goodbye dinner with traditional Irish music and Irish dancers at the Merry Ploughboys Pub was fabulous and the perfect way to end to our terrific trip. Both Pat (north) and Mark (Republic) were delightful driver/guides who went out of their way to help each of us as needed. They both were amenable to stops not advertised and let us know that the 26 of us were 'in charge'. We saw so much of Ireland and, more importantly, learned so much about the island! My Ireland Tours is highly recommended to all!

Patti and I were on the 10 day My Ireland Tour returning home on Sept. 25, 2019. Both of us could not of had a better time. Ireland is truly beautiful and we thought our tour had to have included all the best areas to see. The accomodations were more than adequate. All four of the cities where we stayed had many interesting and wonderful areas to see and explore. The group of people we were with on this tour were tremendous as well. Everyone got along well which made the trip very enjoyable as we all were able to appreciate and discuss Ireland together. Both of us agree the one common factor making this trip so memberable and wonderful was our guide and driver Tony. His knowledge and commentary during the trip was so interesting and informative. His detailed historical, social, religious and political information gave us a more complete understanding and appreciation of Ireland and its people. Tony's singing of several traditional Irish songs on the bus was also a bonus. In our opinion, there was not one negative aspect of the tour. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone and as a fact,we already have. Thanks My Ireland Tour and thank you Tony for providing a wonderful trip for us.

We were a party of 4 and Ger Murphy was our amazing driver/tour guide. He was truly the best part of the trip. So informative and such a great sense of humor. We are back for a day and already miss him. We learned so much about Ireland. We found the people to be incredibly friendly everywhere we went. The entire process from making the reservations to the trip itself was so easy. Any questions we had we had were answered quickly by Eric. The hotels we stayed in were all beautiful and included full breakfasts. Ger made dinner reservations for us for a few nights and his choices were always fantastic. One of the members of our party lost his raincoat and Ger actually gave him one of his coats from home, as a gift. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tour to anyone thinking of traveling to Ireland.

This was my first time to Ireland and I can't praise this company enough. We did the 10 day Iconic Tour and traveling was so organized, beginning with the pickup from the airport, hotel check-ins, and entry to tourist sites. The hotel accommodations and meals were excellent and always lots to eat. Aside from all the beautiful scenery our driver Tom was very knowledgeable about Ireland present and past. He took excellent care of the group and was always there for our tour group if we needed something. I loved my Ireland Tour and highly recommend it for anyone wanting to experience the beautiful country of Ireland. I will definitely recommend this tour to future travelers to Ireland and I plan on returning in the near future.

We did a LOT of homework of tours of Ireland in late 2018 before landing on My Ireland Tour for our visit in September 2019. This choice was based on the duration, highlights, included meals, cost and previous TripAdvisor reviews. Two friends joined us on our 15 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour (South & North) tour, and we all agreed it far exceeded our high expectations. Our guides, especially “don't even jokingly call me Gollum' Colm, were encyclopedically knowledgeable, hugely entertaining and very accommodating of specific requests. The hotels and meals were superb, especially the final night at the Portmarnock Hotel & Golf Links. Free time was usually just what we needed. We highly recommend this company, and especially this double-tour.

We had a group of 9. Our tour guide Brendan was great. His knowledge of Irish history and all the towns added so much to our experience. We were able to see so much more with Brenden's help than we would have by ourselves. Our 9 passenger van was clean comfortable and spacious. I highly recommend My Ireland Tour.

We spent over a year researching a small group (9 cousins) guided tour of Ireland. My Ireland Tours was FANTASTIC! Martina walked us through every step of the way, she always answered our questions promptly and helped us make decisions. Our itinerary was wonderful, we started in Dublin, then went to Killarney, Cork, Beara Penninsula, Connemara and Galway (with all the major sites along the way). Our driver Ben was utterly fabulous.He told stories, sang songs, made suggestions and was patient with our requests. We stayed in a combination of city hotels, Glasha Farmhouse (don't miss it if you can, Olive is wonderful and the pub up the lane is a hoot) and Ballynahinch Castle, which was spectacular, even in the rain. We all agreed we had zero complaints and My Ireland is the way to go!

Ireland is a beautiful country and My Ireland Tour had a wonderful itinerary with the 10 day Iconic Scenes tour. Our family of 5 went along with 2 cousins. Everything was taken care of and we were able to just enjoy ourselves along with the other wonderful people on our tour. Colm Clarke was our guide and he was OUTSTANDING! Fun, energetic, full of knowledge, and took care of any question or guidance we needed with a smile. Just fantastic! Our young adult children have been imparting Irish history to their friends since being back - they learned so much from Colm. I'm very glad we booked with My Ireland Tour. They have our whole family's highest recommendation!

September 2019 • Deluxe Castles Tour
We just returned from a 10 day Deluxe Castle Tour and had an absolute fantastic trip. Working with Martina prior to the trip was really nice as she was quick to respond to our questions. Our tour director/driver, Nigel really made the trip a very special and memorable one for all of us as he was very knowledgeable, informative, responsible, and he made us laugh quite a bit with his humor (and he even sang a few lines of songs for us which was a good touch). Nigel was very accommodating for any special requests. According to him, he even arranged for the good weather we experienced, or so he said. Our group was amazing as we had 26 total people which is a very good and manageable size. Many new friendships were made and the group exchanged email addresses, took a group picture with our driver and many new phone numbers are now in my phone so we can stay in touch. We quickly all became very comfortable with each other which made for a fantastic tour. Ireland is such an amazing country and the Irish people were very friendly; the sites and places we toured were beautiful, wonderful, and educational. The other tour guides at some of the stops were so informative and obviously wanted to share their love for Ireland. The accommodations and food were excellent. This really was the perfect 1st trip to Ireland for us and we really have a big thanks for Nigel for making the trip so special.

September 2019 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
My two friends and I took the 10 Day Ireland Tour. Our driver/guide was Colm and he made the trip for us. It was a packed, well organized tour so that we could get in as much as we could. Colm made suggestions for eating, shopping, extra sights to see and would go out of his way to find something out for us, accommodate any requests, and gave us great information on the sights we were seeing and the history of Ireland. We saw so much and I know there is so much more to see. The hotels were amazing and the meals fantastic - the soups! There were 24 on our tour, just the right number, and Colm took the time to learn about each and every one of us. It's so hard to pick a favorite place but Connemara and the Ring of Kerry truly stand out. The weather cooperated and was nice, the bus was comfortable, clean and we were able to recharge our electronics, use wifi while we were traveling. I raved about this trip so much, my husband now wants to go. And I could go again because I am sure I missed things because there is so much to see. Martina, Colm, and the whole company made sure our 10 day tour was all that it could be. We didn't have to worry about logistics, Colm got us where we wanted to go, most of our meals were taken care of, and it was great not being in a different hotel every night. The 2 nights in a hotel was just right. Thanks My Ireland Tour for a wonderful experience.

September 2019 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
Has to be the best coach tour of Ireland. 10 day Iconic Ireland Tour. We were a party of 4 from UK with 26 very nice Americans. 26 people in a coach for 34 so plenty of room to move around. On board WC and bottled water. Very comfortable coach. The tour packed in a very full itinerary hitting all of the important tourist destinations and many more side trips. Hotels were all good 4-star quality. Food was generally good from a limited menu and very good at some hotels. Suitcases were taken from the coach directly to the rooms. Staff in hotels were attentive and pleasant in all but the Clayton Hotel, Ballsbridge. This was the last hotel on the tour and in the restaurant coach parties were treated as second class customers. Struggled to get a wine list or secure a drinks order. No coffee with meal and no bottled water in the room. Front desk and bar staff were better. They did book a taxi to the airport for us. What really made the tour exceptional was the Driver/Guide Tony McGoey. He has an encyclopaedic knowledge of all things Irish. He gave a comprehensive appraisal of every site visited and provided a detailed overview of the history of the island of Ireland North and South. He outlined the politics of the island both historical and contemporary. He also explained how tax, healthcare, education and driving differs from the US and UK. He kept the tour to time perfectly and even threw in a few additional side trips to pleasant seaside towns. His driving was impeccable instilling confidence in his passengers.

15 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland. We had a wonderful time with 'My Ireland Tours travelling with 23 Americans and the two of us from the U.K. It was a good group and we would, unreservedly recommend the tour to anyone wishing to taste the joys and sights of Ireland in just 14 days. It was, simply, a classy, slick tour. Oisin Quinn took us round Southern Ireland for the first 10 days and was a safe and caring driver/guide and the coach we travelled in was very comfortable with numerous empty seats so we could 'spread out' if we wanted to. He kept to schedule which meant that we arrived on time at the various sites and attractions so we usually had enough time to absorb what we were visiting and seeing. What was impressive about the whole tour was the fact that all our hotel key cards and all admission tickets, wherever we went, were immediately to hand – no queuing up anywhere which was a real plus. The hotels were carefully selected by 'My Ireland Tours'and were of an extremely high standard, as was the food – though you had to like mashed potato as it was served at every meal!! In addition we had two lunches provided in Southern Ireland, 'The Blind Piper pub' and at the Kilkenney farmhouse – both super choices. Brendan McEvoy became our driver/guide round Northern Ireland which was an equally excellent trip. The expert guides who took over from Oisin or Brendan at various places were of a very high standard, knowledgeable and able to put across the salient points extremely well. In short we had a wonderful time and would certainly consider other tours with this excellent Company.

We were a family of five that wanted a custom tour on our schedule. My Ireland Tours planned our itinerary, hotels, and private driver. The Mercedes van was brand-new. The driver was more historian than anything. Elder parents could travel at our pace. Front row parking everywhere. Can't say enough about this tour company. Pure professionals.

We did a wonderful tour of Ireland with two wonderful guides: Harry was our guide for the tour of the Republic of Ireland (6 days). He was outstanding! We learned so much background information from him...along with the myths (lol). Our group was wonderful (24 of us). My Ireland Tours outdid themselves; we saw so much! My favorite was the Cliffs of Moher, Blarney Stone and the woollen Mills! Our guide for Northern Ireland (4 days) was Liam. This was a tour for the 4 of us created by My Ireland Tours. What a wonderful time we had! Liam filled us in on background information before we went on a tour. While the Titanic was a hit, my favorite was the NE coast and Giant's Causeway! We would recommend this tour to everyone!

After returning from our 10 day Iconic Tour of Ireland, my intention was to write the BEST review ever written for Tom Lavin, our driver/guide, Martina Hegarty, our behind the scenes coordinator, and My Ireland Tours. However, as I read the many reviews on the website, I realized I couldn't top the A++ reviews that have already been posted. I'll give it my best though. I firmly believe that a successful company is only as great as the people who work there. Tom Lavin and Martina Hegarty are great ambassadors for My Ireland Tours. The immediate, helpful, and kind correspondence with Martina was so valuable to us as we planned our tour. She even went above and beyond to help with a last minute request shortly before our tour started. Tom Lavin expertly drove and guided us on our 10 day adventure. We learned so much from Tom about Ireland's history, iconic landmarks, and information about current day Ireland. We loved the anecdotes that Tom added about his life growing up in Ireland and about his family. When Tom talked on the microphone, you could hear a pin drop because his commentary was so interesting, and we didn't want to miss anything that he said. Pretty amazing since there were 26 of us! Tom's leadership, humor, kindness, and patience were appreciated by all. Our itinerary, hotels, meals and included tours were all excellent. My Ireland Tours is a phenomenal company. I will continue to sing your praises to anyone thinking about visiting Ireland!

We just returned from 10 Iconic Scenes of Ireland and had a wonderful time. The best parts were: our tour director/driver, Tom, he was extremely knowledgeable, informative, responsible, and he made us laugh a lot, we can't compliment him enough, he made the trip, he even arranged for the good weather we had, or so he said; the size of the group was another plus, 26 people is a nice size, we could move as a group easily and quickly became comfortable with each other; of course, Ireland is amazing and the Irish people are so very welcoming; the sites and places we toured were wonderful, the guides at every stop were so informative and obviously excited about their jobs and sites; and last but not least were our stops at Jameson and Guinness in addition to the Irish musicians we saw along the way. The accommodations and food were a cut above. This was a perfect 1st trip to the Island of Ireland for us. Thanks.

What an amazing tour company! Eric was wonderful to work with when putting together our private tour. He planned it just right for the 8 of us, hitting all the major stops around Ireland. The accommodations they coordinated were nice as well, unique to Ireland and great locations which allowed us to walk to dinners each night. Our guide Liam was superb. He was extremely knowledgeable and kind with 20+ years of guiding experience. Our whole group would highly recommend My Ireland Tour Company and Liam.

September 2019 • Deluxe Castles Tour
My wife and I, along with another couple with whom we are close friends, had the pleasure of enjoying the Deluxe Castle 10 day tour beginning August 4, 2019. Let me say the accommodations, comprised of 5 castles/hotels were top notch, as was the delectable food we enjoyed at each venue. One venue was better than the next, and they were ALL excellent. We stayed two nights at each venue, with the exception of the first, at which we stayed one night. Our tour guide/driver, Tom Lavin, was excellent. He was accommodating, informative and humorous, and provided much insight about Ireland and its people. Tom's driving was amazing, as he navigated many rural roads and quaint towns expertly. The coach bus was quite comfortable and provided Wi-Fi and charging stations for our cell phones. The tour itself was incredible as we left Dublin, headed north to Northern Ireland, then to NW Ireland, and then south along the east coast, down to Kerry/Killarney, then west and northwest back to Dublin. We enjoyed so many attractions along the way, and loved the beautiful and scenic Irish countryside and its quaint towns, including Donegal, Westport, Galway and Killarney. Dublin was amazing, and we actually tacked on a few days to enjoy Dublin a bit longer. The Irish people we met were super friendly and just a joy. This was a truly memorable trip. I would highly recommend it to anyone wishing to see as much of a beautiful country as one can see within a 10 day period of time. Excellent!!!

How many good things can I say about My Irish Tours. My answer is not enough. Let's start with the tour (Ours was the 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland option): The one phrase description that comes to mind is 'well paced'. My spouse and I are past the time when we choose to wake up at dawn and keep traveling til dusk in order to see as much as possible during a day. Our tour day was typically 9 to 6. Part of that is spent resting (and viewing the wonderful countryside) while being driven to another interesting area or place. We saw and experienced plenty of wonderful and interesting areas each day, had good guides for the historical areas, and sufficient time to explore on our own. Accommodations and travel: I can find no fault with the accommodations that were arranged for us. We usually stayed in a hotel for two days while exploring nearby areas. It's surprisingly feels much less hectic than tours where it's a different hotel most days. They were all comfortable, clean, and restful, with pleasant and accommodating staff members. And for others who travel while keeping tabs on work or home, we experienced reliable wi fi at each hotel. The bus used to transport us around Ireland was comfortable, clean, and roomy. A bonus was usb charging stations at each seat, and the bus provided wi fi. People: Two words...just wonderful. Our driver/guide Tony was and is fantastic. Personable, knowledgeable, capable, organized, helpful, entertaining. He seems to have personal contacts at each hotel and attraction. He shared history, background, and anecdotes during our travels. I really want to clone him for our next trip. Martina (at the office) was wonderful at helping us keep track of our trip planning, providing itinerary updates (no major changes) and insights, packing advice (bring a water resistant windbreaker with a hood), and all other administrivia.

September 2019 • My Ireland Tour Package
We had a great tour with My Ireland Tours. We particularly enjoyed our driver/guide, Ben O'Sullivan -- just a good guy with a lot of Irish history. He was kind, considerate and fun to be with -- and was a terrific singer of Irish ballads! The size of the small bus is what made this tour work for us -- only 7 of us plus Ben. Much better than those big 35-passenger buses. Hotels and food were great, but would have liked to spend more time in Galway and Killarney. Only one day, from Galway to Killarney, seemed too long in the bus, although part of that was due to nasty traffic. Had a great time and would recommend the small-sized My Ireland Tours to others -- it provided us first-timers a good sampling of southern Ireland.

What an amazing tour of such a beautiful country! My husband and I and our two friends took the 10-Day Deluxe Castle Tour August 4th-13th, 2019. From the very beginning,Martina and Kristel were a huge help in answering a myriad of questions and made us feel comfortable and secure. We added on an extra day at the end of the trip and they made the coordination easy. Our driver/guide Tom was wonderful! He was so knowledgeable and informative about the culture, history, and politics of Ireland. Tom was witty and also shared a few personal stories about his family, which made us feel connected to a true Irishman. The tour itself was fantastic. We travelled from Dublin, up north to Northern Ireland, along the west coast, down to Cork and back up to Dublin. The castles and hotels were the finest and it was relaxing to be able to stay 2 nights in each place. The days were full, but it was the only way to see as much as we did. We really felt that we knew so much about Ireland when we finished our trip.There was free wifi on the tour bus, and plenty of room as there were 22 of us in the group and there was room for 35 on the bus. We made new friends and ate the most delicious meals. Tom took very good care of us, driving safely, taking care of our luggage and making sure we kept on schedule. This was one vacation that we will always remember with the fondest of memories. I would highly recommend going on a My Ireland Tour.

My Ireland Tour was an amazing company to travel with! All of the logistics were handled well, all of the accommodations were amazing, all of the other tour members were great company, George was fantastic, making our trip a lifetime worth of memories. We're already planning on how to return to this wonderful country and we will 100% be using My Ireland Tour to do so. Thank you so much for a wonderful 25th anniversary celebration!

We just returned from the Six Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour. As we were considering this tour and after booking it, Martina Hegarty answered several questions promptly and graciously. Brian Treanor, our driver/guide, happily took us from the airport to our splendid hotel, introducing us to Ireland and answering questions. During each and every day of our excursion, it was clear that Brian's goal was to make everyone's trip comfortable and memorable. His narrations were so interesting that I took notes, which I will share with family. Additionally, we were impressed with his superb driving skills. This six-day tour skillfully highlights the most popular attractions in Ireland. Our accommodations were terrific. We confidently recommend My Ireland Tours.

We recently did the Southern Ireland ring and it was amazing! Every single detail about this trip was perfectly planned and worth every penny! It was everything I expected and more. Our guide Dave was very knowledgeable, fun, and easy going. We really lucked out with a super group of people too. I highly recommend the 8 person tour and a “spot' of lunch at ‘Harry Lemon'. Five stars and two thumbs up for this tour!

Our group of 3 couples just returned from a private tour of Northern Ireland. Krystal did a fantastic job setting up our itinerary and was very easy to communicate with. She answered all our questions and gave us great suggestions. The accommodations and sites she booked for us were perfect! Our on line account made it simple for each couple to pay tour fee by credit card and safely. It was a great convenience having our entry fees and hotels were taken care of ahead of our arrival and we could just show up and walk into our accommodation or travel site. Brian was our driver/guide and he was extremely knowledgeable about Northern Ireland - just what we needed and we loved his local insight! Brian was professional, punctual and fun! He knew all our names after our first meet and we felt completely comfortable traveling with him. The vehicle we traveled in was wonderful - walk on and enough clearance to actually stand and walk to your seats, huge windows for every passenger so each of us had unobstructed wide open views of the beautiful countryside we traveled through. We would all use My Ireland Tour again and recommend them to all!

Our family of 6 took a private tour, including our 2 year old granddaughter, and it is a trip we will never forget! Our guide/driver was Roy Moore and he educated, entertained and watched out for us throughout the whole trip. His driving skills were superb and the Mercedes bus was comfortable and roomy. It was pure bliss to be able to sit back and relax and leave the organizing and driving to Roy. He did all we asked and then some, no detail was too small. I learned more about Ireland from Roy than I ever knew. The accommodations and included meals were fantastic. The Imperial Hotel Cork was especially helpful and courteous changing a room at the last minute. I can't thank Kristel enough for her care putting our itinerary together. She listened to what we wanted and worked with us to fine tune parts of it, until it was just right. We will happily recommend My Ireland Tours to anyone thinking of vacationing in Ireland. From start to finish, a great experience!

Our experience with our My Ireland tour of Northern Ireland was very good. We appreciated the well planned itinerary, which included interesting stops as well as some down time each day. The accommodations and food exceeded expectations. Our specialty guides were very informative and personable. Our bus driver/guide was outstanding, one of a kind – do you get me? We will take a piece of Northern Ireland home with us in our hearts.

Just returned from the 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. It was a wonderful experience. I have toured Ireland 14 times. Our driver/guide, Mark< was the best driver I have ever worked with. He is knowledgable, witty, accommodating, kind and genuine. I appreciated MIT's flexibility, since eight of our group on 11 wanted to take the full day in Galway to voyage to the mystical Aran Islands. The excursion was astounding. The trip is well organized and informative. The final show at The Merry Plowboy was actually authentic and incredibly entertaining. The hotels were great, the meals tasty and the hotel staffs very engaging and helpful.

My husband and I did a weeklong private tour with My Ireland Tour. Brian, our driver, was amazing and so accomodating. Brian narrated as he drove, stopping at other points of interest that weren't even in our itinerary. He let us add things as we went along. The hotels were so wonderful. Kristel and Eric planned a great itinerary, hitting all the places we wanted to see. We highly recommend My Ireland Tour and would most definitely use them again.

July 2019 • My Ireland Tour Package
I admit, I was a bit anxious about a group guided tour because I tend toward social anxiety. This tour was relaxed enough and gave everyone enough freedom that I found it delightful and most memorable. Our guide, Niall, was a big part of that. He was looking out for us all the time and constantly finding ways to enhance our experience. He has a passionate devotion to his country but uses his sense of humor to keep and communicate an intriguing perspective. Ireland is not a hard sell, with its complex, fascinating history, congenial people and natural beauty, but Niall's narrative truly drew me in and made me feel a part of it.“ Happy enough', indeed.

Took mini-group tour of southern part of Ireland. 8 of us in a nicely-kitted-out Mercedes Sprinter. Our driver/guide, Barry, was great and all 8 of us got along very well. Not a rushed tour; had free time. All hotels great, esp. Ballynahinch castle. Some very nice dinners included -- at the castles. Scenery and stops all very nice. Highly recommend this tour, esp. if you don't like 40 on a bus!
Elizabeth Davidson
July 2019 • 6 Day Iconic Scenes
We traveled as a couple in late June 2019. Touring is a great way to see the country. Ben, our Tour Guide and driver, was a passionate Irishman whose love for all things Irish, helped bring the Tour alive. From geology to history to agriculture and music, Ben gave us more than a drive through the country. He was a cultural guide who shared his love of his country. The countryside, towns and villages and the folk we met along the way made the journey one to remember. We were blessed with a beautiful bunch of people on the Tour which made for some lively happy times on and off the bus. This was our first Tour ever and it was a very good experience. You must be ready for the up-and-go nature of Touring; there's not much time to spend anywhere, but there are restful times to be had on the bus and the hotel accommodation was good - terrific in Dublin and good in Limerick. We would recommend the Tour to anyone wanting to see a big swathe of the country and if you're lucky enough to get Ben, that's a bonus! Thanks to all involved.

This was my first tour group and all I can say is WOW! I did the 10 day Iconic Tour and traveling was so easy and effortless beginning with the pickup from the airport, hotel check-ins, porter service and entry to tourist sites. The hotel accommodations and meals were excellent and first-class! The best part besides the beautiful scenery and sights was our driver, Tony! His knowledge of Irish history, culture, and trivia was outstanding and most important his wit and humor. Our group was always laughing and enjoying ourselves. He took excellent care of the group and I'm not sure how he did it, but he arranged for perfect weather the whole tour ,except for the one day that I wanted to experience an Irish rain day). I loved my Ireland Tour and highly recommend it for anyone wanting to experience the beautiful country of Ireland. I will definitely use My Ireland tour for future visits.
Laura Hipps
July 2019 • Historic Irish Castle Tour
Great tour itineraries & they take care of you. I did two tours back-to-back and they were wonderful. The Castles & Backroads Tour was my absolute dream trip & MIT delivered: it was great staying two nights in one place instead of bouncing around every single night, perfect balance of bus time-stops-walking ,my feet did not hurt once from too much walking). Wi-Fi on the bus was a pleasant surprise and ended up being a necessity for me. Our driver/narrator, George, was so kind and incredibly knowledgeable, and not to mention provided some great craic! He made sure we all were on the bus each time we pulled out, and even made sure each and every one of us was taken care of transportation-wise at the end, if we were not using MIT's services to get to the airport. The one request agreed by most was to have dinner a bit earlier. Since they tend to be longer dinners ,2-3 hours), ending late deterred a lot of us from hitting the town at night. When this concern was voiced, our driver/guide/MIT got a few of our dinners moved earlier to accommodate - true service. Not much free time, but it was a well-packed schedule to maximize the trip, and if you so choose you can forgo a scheduled tour and explore on your own ,just let your driver know!).

We went on a 10 day tour of Deluxe Irish Castles with My Ireland Tours. The tour was fantastic and we got to see a great deal of IReland and the Castles which we stayed at were fantastic. We had a fantastic driver guide, Ger Murphy, who took us to places not on the Itinerary which made our trip special. Highly recommend this tour and if possible to get Ger Murphy as your guide.

July 2019 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
My group of 5 Malaysians enjoyed our 10 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland starting 17 June 2019. We experienced exceptional Irish weather with only one full day of rain while we were in Cork. The other days had occasional showers, cloudy and sunny weather with very comfortable cool temperatures for us. The relatively small group enabled us to get to know the rest of the group and also enjoy plenty of space in the full size coach. The pace was very comfortable with 2 nights in each hotel while touring and each day starting from 9am and ending before 6pm. Food was plentiful with multi-choice 3 course dinners every night. For us, we wish to suggest more varieties of taste for the menu. Our driver guide Tony was amazing; driving safely, giving running commentaries, checking us into the hotels and giving us our room keys, organizing the luggage pickup and delivery, keeping the coach windows clean every morning and frequently checking with us that everything is okay. Definitely will recommend to our friends.

Castles and Backroads tour end of June 2019. Pretty nice set up and planning by this 5-star company. Food was very good ,too much of it, and coach was always on time. Our driver was spectacular. Well informed, on time, pleasant and kind. The quality of hotels ,castles, were really good, comfortable beds and full of historic flavor. I would definitely use this your company again. Very happy with everything.

I already miss our time in Ireland with this group of wonderful people! My husband and I, along with our great friends, were here to celebrate both of our 30th anniversaries. Ireland was a bucket list item for all of us! Our tour guide, Tony, was truly amazing! He was knowledgeable about Irish history and culture. He was also naturally witty. Tony was attentive to every detail of the trip, making sure everyone was taken care of at all times. I also loved all the people we met on the trip, from all over the place! We all got along very well and I enjoyed making new friends! The hotels were beautiful and a breeze to check in to. The tour was a perfect balance of culture, fun, and time to explore! Thank you for taking my mind off of work, etc. and giving me a one-of-a-kind experience!

My husband and I absolutely adored the country of Ireland and are anxious to return. Our tour guide, Colm, was both informative and funny throughout the duration of the trip. We never felt rushed at any particular location and enjoyed the freedom to explore local towns and pubs on our own while still receiving advise from Colm. If you want to get a glimpse of the different landscapes of Ireland, I highly recommend the Dingle tour. We look forward to returning to Ireland soon!

The 10-day Deluxe Castles Tour is the trip of a lifetime. We stayed at five luxury castles/hotels. Each one was rich with history and beauty. We loved swimming in the indoor pool, riding bikes and walking trails around gorgeous lakes. We also visited many of the historic sites in Ireland such has Derry, Kylemore Abbey, the Cliffs of Moher and Trinity College. Our tour guide Michael Coleman, a true Irishman, made the historical and cultural significance of the Irish people clear. Michael welcomed us to Ireland with consideration for each person's interests and wellbeing.

Hi we did the Iconic scenes tour in June 2019 and I can only recommend this to anyone . The itinerary was well structured , the group size although at the maximum of 26 was small enough to really work well and the hotels were excellent and well located. The stops and routes were always interesting with some outstanding highlights . Our tour guide Tony was absolutely top class and everything worked seamlessly so you could really just relax and enjoy. What a pleasure.

I wouldn't visit Ireland any other way!

16 women. 1 half marathon. 10 days. I can't say enough about how wonderful our Patterson Party tour in June, 2019 was. Peter Mullen was the driver extroidinaire! He was so knowledgable about the sights we needed to see, answered our questions and participated when we wanted some fun! Peter made sure we had plenty of time and met all our deadlines when we had some. We felt like family!

June 2019 • 6 Day Iconic Scenes
We had an absolutely incredible time during our 6-Day Iconic Tour of Ireland during June 2019. We began planning the trip more than 6 months in advance and Martina was very helpful during the process to include assisting us in reserving hotel rooms for additional nights. Our tour guide/driver - Kieran was amazing. Not only was he a very impressive driver as he maneuvered the charter bus around the country but his knowledge of Ireland ranged from agriculture, to industry, to economic to an amazing knowledge of Irish history to include Viking history of which I knew nothing. We were lucky to have a great group to travel with - I don't recall anyone complaining about a single thing for the entire trip which is rare when you have 22 adults together. I don't think we can give Kieran credit for the weather but we were very fortunate to have perfect weather each day so as to be comfortable and to be able to enjoy viewing the Cliffs of Moher and the Ring of Kerry as well as Blarney Caste. We didn't know anything about the monastery at Glendalough before going and I actually thought a monastery would be boring - BUT - we were blown away by this place, the history, the beauty, the spiritual feeling you couldn't help but get there. We loved it, it was worth the cost and worth the planning.

Our family of 5 took a private week long trip through Ireland with My Ireland tours in May. We can't say enough wonderful things about the trip starting with Kristel, our travel agent with the company. She helped us plan a family trip to remember! Our bed and breakfasts were superb, and the two hotels very clean. We were able to visit the town of my husband's relatives, and even found the very old cemetery off the beaten path with the help of our Driver/Guide, Austin McArdle and some locals! That was very special to us!. Austin was extremely knowledgeable with the history of Ireland, the specifics of the locations we visited, the best places for spectacular photo opportunities and had excellent suggestions for small excursions during our free time. He went out of his way to help us find the burial place of distant relatives and took us to some special places that he felt would be of interest to us personally... and he was right! Austin's commentary, humor, and experience with the tour process made for a seamless, delightful, and informative trip. We enjoyed being able to have ongoing conversation with him during our trip given the small size; it was very personal with immediate answers to our questions about what we were seeing. We lucked out with the weather as well, no rain!! What a beautiful country, what friendly people, what a wonderful vacation!. Thank you!

Martina, my wife Joanne and I went on the 10 day Iconic Tour of Ireland by bus. Our very first bus tour and we were unsure how comfortable this trip would be living out of our suitcase for ten days. This trip was celeb rating my 70th birthday and my Irish heritage. Thanks to your phenomenal planning of this tour and our fantastic tour guide Colm Clarke our little trip to Ireland turned into a great adventure. There was never a dull moment, the accommodations were excellent, the food was always good and plentiful, the locations and villages we stopped to visit were truly awesome. We began the tour with 26 people on the bus with us and ended the tour with 24 new friends. We can't thank you enough for making this a truly memorable experience. We haven't stopped talking about it since we have been back ,2 weeks now). We hope to return soon with friends and family to enjoy the beautiful Irish country side and the friendly hospitality of the Irish people. I am truly proud to say I am of Irish heritage. Thank you so much. The McCarthys.

We did the Ancient Ireland Mini-Group Tour ,Ring of Kerry Version, with lots of add-ons!! Eric O'Gorman designed an amazing 10 night private tour for 8 of us, and it was outstanding! Our guide Oisin was just the nicest and most accommodating person who made everything run perfectly. There were plenty of stops, and the private tour made it easy to design an itinerary that appealed to everyone. All hotels and staff were lovely, Ballynahinch Castle was just unbelievable, and Glasha Farmhouse was beautiful and as comfortable as home. Olive was an amazing hostess and we were sad to leave after just one night. In Dublin, it was also great to have Dervilla show us around, she was so entertaining and knowledgeable! Also, we were glad we added the Aran Island tour. Its such a quiet, pristine, beautiful place. The sun was shining all day and the seals were loving it too! Thank you so much for creating such a magical trip for us to Ireland.

My friend and I did the 10 day deluxe Irish castle tour in May 2019. We chose My Ireland Tour due to the glowing reviews and the itinerary that seemed perfect for everything we wanted to experience on our trip. They did not disappoint! Booking and payment was easy, excellent communication, we never felt in the dark during the planning process. To be safe we arrived in Dublin the day before our tour started and met up with our driver/guide Mark back at the airport on the first day of the tour. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Mark! He worked so hard to make sure the entire trip went as smoothly as possible. He was full of information, tips, and even has a lovely singing voice! The group of 26 ,on a 34 seat bus, was the perfect size. Enough diversity to make the trip interesting without ever feeling crammed or lost in the crowd. Being able to sit back, relax, and enjoy the view without the stress of driving was amazing. The accommodations were all top notch and the food was to die for. Baggage service between the bus and the hotel rooms was a treat. ,Boy did we miss that when we were back on our own in Dublin after the tour!, If you are going to Ireland ,especially for the first time, and want to make the absolute most of your time, book with My Ireland Tours!!

We have had the pleasure of booking a 10-day tour with My Ireland Tours., We could not be more satisfied with the end result. We had requested certain specific locations, and left the rest up to our contact, Mr. Eric O'Gorman. Mr. O'Gorman answered all my e-mails in a timely fashion, made sure our requests were taken care of and even added in a local historian to complete some information and details we were lacking. The vehicle was of the top quality, and the driver, Maurice Kelly, was an excellent choice for our personalities. He was truly a Godsend! All details were prearranged, hotels, meals, etc.. Never was there a problem of not having a reservation or not being expected. All ran like clockwork. The days were scheduled for plenty of time to sightsee, and still arrive at our next destination at an early hour. Very well planned, indeed. We would definitely use this tour company again ,which we plan on doing in 2021, and would highly recommend it to anyone, small group or large who wants a carefree holiday in Ireland.

We take a family trip once or twice a year – 28 of us that includes 14 kids under 16. Bus driver/tour guide – best ever! Mark was funny, kind, and very informed! Also, no accidents. He made the trip special and flexible allowing us to make additional stops never planned. Ask for Mark. The home office also went over and above to handle all the planning – and gave us the best value ,I selected My Ireland Tour, after bids and comparing three others. If the company and Mark are in the next country our family visits – no question – we would book with them.

We planned a family trip for 10 of us consisting of my family and my brother's family. We had a private bus that was fantastic with a bathroom in the back. The bus held 20 people, so we had plenty of room to spread out. Our contact at My Ireland Tour worked with us to plan the trip so that we could customize it for our family. Our tour guide, David O'Neill was great, very knowledgeable on Irish history and current events. He was also a very interesting guy with a wide range of interests and hobbies. We visited the towns our paternal grandfather and grandmother came from, so it was very personal for us. My daughter found this agency as it is rated the best in personal tours and our trip confirmed this rating.

We highly recommend My Ireland Tour for anyone who wants to visit Ireland. My wife and I joined the 10-day Deluxe Irish Castles Tour during June 2-11, 2019. It was a wonderful experience for us to get to know about Ireland: history, geography, culture, food, and people. Our tour director Tom was excellent. He was passionate in sharing various things about Ireland. We had 21 members in our group, and our fellow travelers were wonderful. They helped make our Ireland tour more enjoyable. One thing we did not have control over, was the weather. We had rain nearly everyday. But it did not rain the entire day. Instead, the weather could change quickly from sunny to cloudy to rainy, and then back to cloudy and maybe sunny in sequence. We would think the weather we experienced to be Irish too.

We would like to thank My Ireland Tours for making our trip so memorable. Our guide Tom was amazing. He went above and beyond. We have told so many people that if they ever want to go to Ireland you are the company to use. All our hotels where wonderful and above our expectations. We would definitely use My Ireland Tours again if we ever take another trip to Ireland. We planned this trip for our 40 th wedding anniversary and are so please with how we choose to celebrate. Thank you for making our trip exceptional.

Our trip to Ireland was nothing short of magnificent! Deciding to get a driver for our family of six versus driving ourselves was the best decision we made! Our driver, Colm, went above and beyond to enhance our trip every day! He has a delightful personality, extensive knowledge of Ireland sites and history, and tends to every detail. We would not have been able to see half the sites had it not been for Colm. He quickly got to know every person in our family and tailored recommendations to each of us. And, he took us to less traveled sites that were amazing, had great recommendations sites, restaurants, pubs, shopping, etc., and shared shortcuts and money saving tips. All in all, our trip was amazing because of Colm! We felt like we were leaving a dear friend behind when having to say goodbye. Much appreciation to Colm and My Ireland Tour for a great coach bus and excellent service!!

We can not say enough good things about this trip. From the very start, the booking process was seamless, the information for preparation, and details of the trip were perfect, and helpful. Martina was very quick to answer all questions, and readily willing to help with coordination of the trip, and any concerns that we may have had. Our tour was amazing and what made it so was , beautiful weather ,we were so lucky), our wonderful tour mates, the beautiful country, and first and foremost our AMAZING,FUNNY, KNOWLEDGEABLE,TALENTED, THOUGHTFUL,SKILLED bus driver/guide TONY. He drove that bus like it was a clown car,we felt safe and secure at all times. The 10 day iconic tour was a perfect amount of time to see much of this beautiful country, and their friendly people. Every day felt like something new, and never felt rushed. It was a great way to travel and see the country, without having to worry about driving, allowing the opportunity to look at the scenery instead of the road.We can not recommend My Ireland Tour, and this specific tour enough. Happy Travels.

I just returned with my family from the 6 Day Iconic Scenes tour and we had an amazing time! There were 8 of us in total and no one had any complaints... if you knew my family you'd realize how earth shattering this is! When looking for a tour company I looked for every review possible on MIT and was slightly skeptical at the lack of low reviews ,this was my first time taking an actual tour with a guide and schedule), but in reading almost every review I took a chance on MIT and do not regret it. Our tour guide/driver was Liam Finnegan and he gets a 15/10. His passion, charisma, and knowledge are off the charts! I would select another tour of his any day of the week. Thank you MIT for a phenomenal family trip, you have 8 new fans and promoters!

We are back from a 15 day May 2019 tour of the North with Mark and the South with Tom and both driver-guide were master at meeting everyone's needs and expectations, showed great professionalism and demonstrated their pride and passion for their country. The tempo is awesome as we were never rushed thoughout the 2 weeks. We were told many important facts and stories about Ireland and its history. They made our journey as enjoyable as it could possibly be and we brought back so many memories as well as great pictures. No hesitation in recommending this tour. Thanks for everything.

I led a group of photography students from Nossi College of Art out of Nashville, TN USA and from the time we stepped off the plane until the time we popped back on MIT took care of us and treated us like family. Our driver/tour guide ,Dermot, went above and beyond to make sure the college students captured picture perfect moments!!! I can't recommend this tour company enough. Hats off to Dermot for being the best in the touring business! It was truly the trip of a lifetime!

We had a wonderful, memorable tour of beautiful Ireland and the Ring of Kerry. Our guide, David, and our new tour friends were exceptional! David was so knowledgeable about the history and sites, and also provided insights into every day life which made it a very fascinating trip. And we had fun! The itinerary was interesting with lots of stops; the food and accommodations were excellent. Every day went smoothly and efficiently. We especially appreciated the flexibility of the trip based on our group's interests. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tour, and David as the best guide we could have hoped for! We were so fortunate to have him, and the new friends we made on this wonderful vacation!

We went on the mini group tour Ring of Kerry version. The tour guide/driver David was wonderful. He knows many things about Ireland that you can't read in any books. David was witty, helpful and the best tour guide we have ever had. David suggested many off the beaten path things to see and we all got to see things not on the itinerary. It was wonderful. The food and accommodations were both very good. The mini group of eight worked out well and we made new friends we hope to keep for a lifetime. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tour. Request David if you go!

What a marvelous experience! We booked a private tour with 2 friends and loved every minute. The My Ireland staff asked what we wanted to experience and did a perfect job of making it happen--lovely B&Bs as we worked our way across the country with a stop in County Kerry to visit Irish relatives. The last night we stayed in Ballynahinch Castle--what a fabulous experience--picturesque setting, posh rooms and best dinner I've ever had. Our guide/driver Patrick was 'grand' and we felt we got an insider's view of Ireland from our conversations with him. Highly recommend this company!

The tour was fantastic! Fun, relaxing, fulfilling. Book it now! If you're still not convinced, continue reading. First of all, our driver Colm was one of the friendliest people I've ever met. His stories, history, jokes, and even singing always had me entertained on the bus ,which was relatively comfy, and is almost worth the price of admission alone. As for Ireland, Colm took us to all the popular sites and then some. What a beautiful country!!! Very mellow. Everyone we met was super nice and neighborly. Had the best Irish coffee of my life at The Red Fox Inn, and the lady just GAVE me the recipe!!! If you're not sure where to start in Ireland and especially if you don't wanna drive ,the roads are very tight, windy, and just different), I couldn't recommend this tour more!

Wow, what a fantastic 2 weeks in Ireland! My hat is off to My Ireland tour for making this a great, hassle-freevacation. I would wholeheartedly recommend My Ireland Tour to anyone who is thinking of travelling or vacationing in Ireland. Our group of 7 did a custom tour of Ireland over 11 days in one of their small coaches(Mercedes-Benz Sprinter), the vehicle was very comfortable with bucket seats that have multiple charging ports to keep cameras and phones charged. The staff at My Ireland tour was extremely helpful in guiding us on how to set up the itinerary, they were always available to answer emails and questions. We did a Counter-clock wise tour of the Island starting and ending in Dublin, including a night in Belfast, Northern Ireland. We also included a day tour of Inis Oirr Island ,Aran Islands, that included seeing the Cliffs of Moher from a boat. This is definitely a 5-star company

David and I just returned from our 10-day Iconic Scenes tour. It was our first time in Ireland, & could not have been any better! The weather was amazing- it only rained part of one day. The people in our group were fabulous- lovely, funny, comfortable folks. Several of us are considering another trip together down the road! But what really made this trip fantastic was our incredible guide/driver. Tony provided the perfect blend of information and entertainment. He obviously loves his country, and did such a great job of showing us why. I will never forget some of his 'Tonyisms', or his beautiful rendition of 'Grace'. I'm sure My Ireland has other very good people, but if we ever make another trip, we wouldn't go with anybody but Tony!

We could not have been more pleased with our trip with My Ireland Tour!! We went with the 10 day iconic scenes tour and it was perfect for us. We had 4 in our party that was part of a 24 person group total ,groups are usually 26, but ours had a cancellation). The smaller group size enables a much more personal experience with more time to view the amazing sites and much less time in lines. We really liked that we had 2 nights in each hotel which gave us a chance to unwind a little at each place. Our driver/guide, Tony McGoey added so much to our trip! I was actually teary eyed when saying goodbye. His easy going manner, professionalism, historical knowledge, wit, and sense of humor were effortlessly expressed during our rides with his gentle, unhurried Irish lilt. ,We even got a couple of serenades that touched our hearts : , This was a perfect introduction to Ireland and the tour succeeded in including as much as possible without overwhelming us. Would highly recommend them!

Our tour was in May 2019. The value was amazingly good. We did both the North Ireland and the South Ireland tours. Our two tour guides were really great, looking after us, scheduling our days, and organizing our hotels and meals each day. The bus drivers knew the history of the places we were going and of Ireland in general. I recommend My Ireland Tours with our strongest recommendation.

We want to send a big thank you to My Ireland Tour for the great job they did putting together the 15 Day Iconic Tour ,March 20 – April 3, 2019). The 5 days in Northern Ireland under the guidance of Nigel O'Connor was a fantastic way to start the tour. Nigel's knowledge of the history and current issues of the island is considerable. He was able to explain Ireland's complicated history in a very lucid manner – an admirable feat. His commentary was always thoughtful and thought-provoking. The stops along the tour were interesting, the scenery beautiful and the local people always very friendly. The short train ride along the coast following our visit to the Giant's Causeway was most enjoyable and a nice change from the bus.

I highly recommend My Ireland Tour as they were professional from my first email enquiring about their services until they left me and my friends in our hotel the last day of the tour with them. We visited very nice places and sites and everything was very well planned and organised: accommodation, vehicle, site seeing, etc... Colm, our guide/driver, was very knowledgeable, professional and patient. He shared valuable information in every stop we made. Everything worked perfectly and that made our journey in Ireland unforgetable.

I really enjoyed this tour. Our driver-guide George C was wonderful and he was safety first at all times. He shared deep knowledge of all facets of Irish history, culture and music making the tour across many miles very enjoyable. The tour highlights were truly iconic and well paced. Just the right amount of activity versus leisure. The hotels were 4-star, service and food always great. As a single traveler I was not alone and the tour of 26 people was a great group of people-just the right size to keep in pace.

Not long back from the Iconic 10 day tour with George as driver. My first solo tour and first trip to Ireland. It won't be the last on either account. Wonderful trip, wonderful company, good food and even if it did rain a wee bit, who cares. Hotels were good throughout and well-placed and pace was good enough to suit everyone with time allowed to relax or go off and do your own thing. Thanks to My Ireland Tour for arranging everything so well! Thanks also to George for being such a careful driver and such a fount of knowledge. At long last I understand Irish history . . . I think!

My family ,11 of us total, did a private tour of Ireland & Northern Ireland, through My Ireland Tour and it was fabulous. From working with Kristel and team in the planning process, to our terrific guide, Peter, we received exceptional service. We were able to customize the places we wanted to go, as well as discover new unknown places to most tourists. The trip was the perfect balance of scheduled and free time.

We just returned from a 10 day tour of Ireland with Tom Lavin as our driver and guide. We were a group of nine people within the larger group of 26 people on the tour. We could not say enough good things about the tour and Tom Lavin. The hotels, the food, the companionship of the people on the tour were outstanding. We particularly appreciated the two night stays at 4 of the hotels. Not having to repack every night was a big bonus.

We booked a private tour with My Ireland Tour for 7 days in April and wanted to thank Kristel for planning a perfect itinerary for us, a perfect blend of history, nature, sites and authentic Irish culture. We had such an amazing time traveling through Ireland with our driver/guide, Brian Rawlings. Brian was so professional, attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly. We created wonderful memories, met great people and had an incredibly fun and memorable time in Ireland. We truly enjoyed every minute of our tour and highly recommend My Ireland Tour!

We took the Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour in March 2019 with Tom Lavin. Tom was an excellent Ireland historian, Ireland current events expert, and professional driver, all with a great since of humor. He was fantastic and I can not give him high enough reviews!! He is outstanding!! Tom took our tour group on some personalized locations, that only he would know because of his knowledge and pride in his country, always showing the best of Ireland. Tom's voice and communication skills are the definition of a professional and we are so grateful for having Tom as our guide. Ireland is a beautiful country, rich in history, ancient architecture, and natural wonders. The accommodations were excellent. The sites chosen to visit were excellent. The Irish people we met and talked with were very kind and friendly. This was a fantastic tour. I would highly recommend this tour!

We just returned from the 10 Day Iconic tour with Tom Lavin as our guide. This was the best trip we have taken. We were lucky to have good weather almost every day and the 2 days we had some rain, Tom made sure we still had places to go and visit. The hotels and meals were great, and the history and information that Tom talked about made the trip and the places we visited more meaningful. The lunch on a real Irish farm was such a good part of the trip and the Farewell Dinner at The Merry Ploughboy pub with Irish music and dancing was a great way to end the tour.

We have just returned from the 10-day Iconic Scenes of Ireland. We could not be more pleased with this company. Everything was handled in efficient fashion, yet flexible enough to accommodate everyone's needs and likes. Our driver/guide, Tom Lavin, was excellent in every respect. His driving skills are phenomenal, and he delivered a prefect mix of historical knowledge and insights on current events. He was always professional while still being friendly and easy-going. The hotels were great, and the included meals provided more food than we could eat, always with several choices at dinner, and plentiful buffets at breakfast. This was out first trip to Ireland, and this tour delivered a mix of locations and sights that will not soon be forgotten. We would love to visit Ireland again, and will stay with MIT when we do. Thank you.

The hotel accommodations were great. Breakfast and dinner were included. The meals were spot on especially the lunch visit to the farm. The tour has a good mix of natural, cultural and religious stops. For the price you will not find a better tour!

Since my granddaughter's Spring Break didn't seem to coincide with any offered tours I opted to arrange a private tour through My Ireland. From the first moment I contacted Eric for the planning ,and all the many mind changes I went through!, everything was streamlined and stress-free. Starting with greeting Enda at the airport with the fact that I'd broken a tooth on the airplane ,he arranged for the earliest possible appointment to have it repaired, and finishing with Jordan leaving her camera in the car when we said our final goodbyes ,he managed to magically have it appear at the hotel's front desk the next morning, - Enda did his very best to make every wish come true. Enda knew the best little gift shops ,Jordan never met a gift shop she didn't love!, - the best places to eat - and a number of little side roads that weren't on our itinerary. And he was always up for a quick stop for an ice cream cone! I'm sure someone at My Ireland even managed to make the weather behave!

We took the ten day tour with our guide Tony McGoey. Tony was a brilliant historian and we are very fortunate to have been with him for the tour. He educated us on the history of Ireland and gave us a deep appreciation of the people and culture. He is also a great singer! Tony helped us arrange seating for a dinner with my cousin Padraig Keogh during the tour. We appreciate his kindness.

Where to start! What an amazing company! From start to finish this company is top notch. My friend and I took the 10 day iconic tour, every day was filled with beautiful scenery and our guide and driver Tom Levin shared so much information and insight to what we were experiencing it was awesome! Everywhere we went the people were very friendly, the hotels were beautiful, and the food very good. Tour was well organized, the small group was nice, and the tour guides we had at a few of the sites were outstanding as well. I'd also like to mention Martina, she was always there with a quick response to any question we had. I look forward to more experiences with My Ireland Tour in the near future. I can't say enough about this company!

We took the 10 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour and had a wonderful time. The tour shows a good cross section of the country. We appreciated the smaller group, 26 on the bus. We were lucky and had fantastic weather. Our driver was Tom Lavin, and he was top notch. I'd give him ten stars if that was an option. He's very knowledgeable, always helpful and courteous, and funny, too! We rented a car for a few days after the tour ended, and Tom gave us helpful information about driving in Ireland. The tour is very well organized from start to finish. We highly recommend this company.

I normally don't write reviews, so I will try to make this as brief and informative as possible. We recently came back from the 10-day Iconic tour to Ireland and were very pleased. Our driver/guide, Tom Lavin, was wonderfully informative with a mixture of historical facts and info re Ireland today; he mentioned Brexit, the EU, road art, driver's licenses for teens, prices of homes in rural areas vs cities, etc., etc., etc., etc. The logistics of the tour were were well thought out, organized and executed.

We were on the 10-day Iconic Scenes tour and were very very pleased with the experience. Our driver, Tom Lavin, was fabulous! He was knowledgeable, friendly, patient, professional in every way......AND a great driver. He gave great narrations of various sites and current events in Ireland, giving us insight into some inner workings & culture of the country...something we could not have gotten had we been on our own. Tom gets 10 stars from us! Martina, trip coordinator, was also fabulous. She answered e-mails promptly and made for a smooth trip. Kudos to her! Overall, we would certainly book with My Ireland Tour again.

What a marvelous experience! My husband and I were on the 5 day Northern Ireland tour from March 20-25, 2019 and enjoyed every minute of it! Our tour guide, Nigel O'Connor, was so professional and attentive to the group, always conscious of our schedule for the day but also allowing for slight changes as necessary. For example, two guests wanted to attend St. Michael's early mass one morning and that request was accommodated with an alternate pick up location for them. Thanks so much for a terrific, memorable vacation!

We considered renting a car and touring around Ireland until a friend told us about My Ireland Tour. We are so glad we booked our 15 day tour with My Ireland Tour. We learned so much about Ireland, and saw so much of the island, way more than we ever would have seen had we driven and navigated on our own. We loved Ireland – beautiful, clean countryside; amazing coastal areas; friendly people; and lots of interesting history and historical sites.

Our 10 day trip to Ireland was a special memory for our group of seven. We were able to experience the beauty of Ireland, its historic sites and peaceful green-quilted country-sides far better than if we were on our own. George, our driver, was fantastic! Each day he shared with us his extensive knowledge of Irish history. With his great sense of humour and superb driving skills, we were unquestionably in good hands! We would very highly recommend My Ireland Tour! Thank you for a truly memorable experience!

In looking for and planning an Ireland trip for our entire family travelling from multiple areas, I came across My Ireland Tours. I'm glad I did! Working with Kristel, we worked out a 10 day private tour across most of Ireland. Everything was first class, from the selected sights to the different lodging locations and the perfect size tour vehicle. Our driver Brian was wonderful and provided a wealth of knowledge along the way. He made for a very wonderful travel companion and we are pleased to now include him as family! If you are looking for a first class experience, I would highly recommend My Ireland Tours as your first choice in planning a trip of your lifetime!

October 2018 • Deluxe Castles Tour
I went on the 10 Day Deluxe Castle Tour with my son and we had a very memorable trip. It was our first time in Ireland and so we decided to take a tour so that we wouldn't miss any history in the places that we visited and we wanted to get the most out of our days there. Our tour guide Joe was beyond wonderful. He was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot about Ireland and it's history. My only negative comment would be that while the places that we stayed were all top notch and beautiful, almost all of them were a little too out of the way in terms of being able to walk into any towns and check out the local life. I would do it again in a heartbeat.

I hope to return!

Choosing his tour was the best thing I did for my trip. The only thing I could possibly complain about were a couple of other tour participants, but even they couldn't take away from how amazing this trip was. The tour included the top places I wanted to visit and a few I never would've known about ,but I'm happy I do now., The hotels were all incredible ,Lough Eske Castle Hotel was the highlight for me, followed by Ballynahinch!, And the meals were great too! The best part, by far, was the tour guide, Joe. His knowledge ,and the personal touch he added to every story/location, went beyond expectation. He made me smile and laugh every day. And he made me care about Ireland and it's history, which I think is the thing that impacted me the most. When I come back, I'd only do a tour with this company and with Joe!!

We loved everything about this tour! Dublin was great, people so friendly, so much to do. The tour covered all we wanted to see on our first visit. Beautiful country. We were lucky to have mild weather. Pleased with accommodations, especially in Dublin. The Limerick hotel was ok, not as accessible to see much of Limerick. Tony our tour guide is the best guide, must request Tony on any visit!!! My Ireland Tour was great to work with and has been recommended to many friends since our vacation. Thank you to Martina and Tony and team!

October 2018 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
We went on the 10 day iconic tour ofIreland, ,it was my second time with My Ireland., It is is every way a vividly interesting journey through Ireland's landscape and history. Our tour-guide Tom really should be a teacher. His amazing knowledge of Ireland, its people and personality, its history challenges today, gave me a grounding in this place that I would expect to get only from a minimum of a year of living there. Our creature comforts were met at every turn from a variety of interesting and comfortable hotels, to great food from well prepared hotel fare to pub fare to home-made farm fare. with always a choice of great wine, beer or finest Irish whisky! We were relieved of any worry over our bags as we journeyed, every nuance of responsibility taken care of. It would be true to say it was a wonderful group of fellow travelers, but I cant help thinking that if we hadn't been made as a comfortable and organized as we were, I am sure none of us would have been as pleasant or fun, as willing to be curious and friendly. It was all made so easy.

October 2018 • Discover Northern Ireland
On our 24 day trek through the UK, Chuck and I picked up the Northern Ireland Tour through My Ireland Tours at the Belfast Titanic and continued on with the group of 26. Our driver /guide Nigel was entertaining and knowledgable about the history of the area we travelled through and answered questions for us. The countryside was spectacular, the people of Ireland warm and welcoming and the bus family entertaining. This was our first group trip in our 64 years and we both enjoyed leaving the thinking to a well organized company to do that for us for part of our trip. Cead Mile Failte is just one Gaelic saying we learned, but to all of you Go Raibh Maith Agat.

We chose the 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour for our first travel experience to Ireland. I'm so glad I found this great tour company on Google. We had a fabulous time meeting people and enjoying the sights of Ireland. Our guide, Tom Lavin, was the perfect mix of organization and information. It was a great relief to not only having someone doing the driving but also tending to those pesky details like luggage! Thank you Tom! We would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore Ireland with a good mix of guided tours and free time. Sincerely, Gail and Tony Cross, Junction City, Oregon.

My husband and I did the 10 Day Iconic Scenes and 5 Day Northern Ireland tours. We had never done a 'group' tour before and wasn't sure what to expect. Fortunately our experience was wonderful. Our driver guide Harry for the 10 day trip was quintessential Irish and really educated us on each and every area. I felt like I really got to know the history of Ireland and the Irish people. The trip to Northern Ireland with Nigel as our guide was equally educational and enjoyable. I LOVED that the guides stuck to our schedule but also listened to the desires of the group for extra time at certain stops and made it all work. Leaving all of the logistics to Harry and Nigel meant we could just enjoy each and every location. LOVED this trip and would go back to Ireland with this company again.

We returned home truly relaxed and felt like we had a true vacation. So glad we decided to go with myirelandtours!

October 2018 • 6 Day Iconic Scenes
My Ireland's hub and spoke tour was the perfect fit for my husband, myself and my over 80 year old mother in law who had never traveled out of country before. The fact that you only move hotels once during your 6 days makes for a more restful trip overall. Yet, you do not feel short changed in what you see; you still see Dublin, parts of the Wicklow Mountains, Galway, etc. You still hit all the high lights. It really was just perfect for us. Our guide and driver, Garry Horan, could not have been more pleasant. He made us feel very safe and comfortable with his driving skills, and with the comfort and cleanliness of the bus. He was a font of knowledge of Irish history . His humor and outgoing personality helped create a camaraderie among all the passengers on the bus, which in turn added to the wonderful experience. He made each and every passenger feel taken care of. I highly recommend this tour to one and all.

Just got back from Castles and Backroads tour. Cannot say enough great things about the entire experience! Many praises and accolades for our guide Tom and the company in general. From start to finish we were well taken care of. Tom did a stellar job driving, narrating and bringing us safely to every destination. Tom gave us many laughs, history, local lore and insight to life in Ireland. We were well fed and attended to all along our way. Martina our reservationist and company contact was always attentive to our needs and provided us promptly with all info requested. The tour was an incredible value considering we could not have done all we did on our own. Thank you...My Ireland Tours for a stellar experience and I highly recommend their tours!

TONY was Fantastic........ My wife and I completed the Deluxe Castle tour in September of 18. What made this 5-stars was the dedication, professionalism and knowledge of our tour director/driver Tony. The man is full of stories(some true, about the country and areas we visited. He guided us well, we saw much and enjoyed our time in Ireland. I felt we got a great sense of the country we visited. I liked the idea that we stayed two nights in all of our 'Castles'. Plus we had all breakfasts and dinners provided making for an easier vacation. All we needed to do was get on the bus to see the next area of Ireland. We left the driving to Tony. I highly recommend this company and if one is fortunate enough to have Tony, you are indeed in for a fine 'Irish' experience.

My sister and I just returned 2 days ago from Ireland after joining your Deluxe Castles Tour, and adding a couple days at the end to see more of Dublin. It was the first time in Ireland for each of us. We were very much impressed with all the aspects of the Castles Tour. The accommodations, food, and daily excursions were very nice, the staff were always helpful, and the service by everyone was incredible. I have to report that your country is very beautiful! Especially for me remembering the beauty of the Ring of Kerry drive, and our time at Connemara, the views out over Ballynahinch Castle grounds, and all of the mountains.

My Ireland Tour provided my family with the most memorable trip. We were eleven people ranging in age from 20 to 66. We booked a 7 day private tour. I provided the towns we wanted to visit and Eric O'Gorman put togther an amazing itinerary with accomodations at exceptional hotels. Our transporation was a 15 passenger modern and comfortable mini-coach with wifi and plenty of usb charging ports. Our driver Mike D'Arcy was extremely knowledegable and his recommendations for restaurants, traditional music, pubs and golf only contributed further to our extrordinary experience. Everyone in our party had a wonderful time without any complaints whatsoever. I highly recommend My Irish Tour and will definitely be using them in the future. If you can push your budget a private tour is an outstanding experience. Either way you will not be disappointed and will be in good hands with My Irish Tour, who will help you create memories that will last a lifetime!

This tour met and exceeded our expectations. The heart of the tour was our driver-guide Tony. Our group consisted of 25 travelers from age 13 to over 80. We came from 5 different countries and many different states within the U.S. I highly recommend this tour, especially if this is your first trip to Ireland. Tony made sure we got to see all the memorable, historic and spiritual sites in a timely manner. He watched over all of us and he shared a lot of stories. We were free to mingle with our tour mates at all times. On returning to NY, my husband and I ,who celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary with this tour, concluded that it would be hard to top this experience - arranged with My Ireland Tours.

This tour company is absolutely amazing and I would give it more than 5-stars if I could! We booked the Deluxe Castle Tour for our honeymoon and we could not have asked for a better experience!!! Martina did a fantastic job helping us decide which tour would meet our sightseeing criteria, and she helped us figure out what to pack and responded quickly to our questions via email.

My wife and I have just returned from our Iconic Tour of Ireland and we could not have had a more enjoyable and pleasurable travel experience. The concept of this tour with a small group size and just two hotels with 'spokes' each day is absolutely brilliant! Every aspect of this trip was simply magnificent! Arranging the tour was simple and straightforward and the My Ireland Tour staff communicated all of our arrangements through the whole process.

What an amazing experience! We did the 10-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour and had a wonderful time. Our driver-guide Tony was superb. He took care of us, told great stories, made us laugh, and provided just an all-around good time. The itinerary was well paced and Tony even provided some bonus stops along the way, especially to help break up some of the longer travel days. This tour was the perfect way to see a lot of the Irish countryside as well as visit the sites in the main cities. We greatly appreciated the smaller bus, which allowed us to get to know everyone who traveled with us. We can't wait to visit the Island again!

We chose My Ireland Tours to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary in Ireland and couldn't be happier with our choice. We enjoyed the small groups and comfortable coach. Our driver/guide, Mark, was attentive and extremely knowledgable about Irish history and events. Our tour went from listening to history, visiting sites, laughing at humorous stories to the singing of Irish songs.We also appreciated that all of our accommodations, tours and meals were included but we did get a little tired of the 'typical Irish breakfast'. We would highly recommend My Ireland Tours for anyone wanting to tour Ireland.

What a great tour. We were fortunate enough to meet our daughter and son-in-law for the Northern Ireland tour. The weather was great, the food was good, and the scenery was fantastic. Our driver guide was David Breen. His knowledge and driving skills were brilliant. He was patient, informative, and funny. Not mentioned on the website is an included train ride along the coast from Coleraine to Derry-beautiful. We met some very nice people on our tour, as well as in the places we visited.

Our family excursion to Ireland was an extremely enjoyable experience. Our mini-bus was luxurious and highly comfortable. The bus was cleaned and the windows washed daily to optimize our sightseeing. Arrangements had been made for child car seats to accommodate our two 3-year old twin grandsons. The car seats worked really well. Positioned in the rear of the bus and perched on raised seats the boys had grand views of the countryside enabling them to provide ongoing commentary about cows, sheep and “lots of green squares' in the landscape.

I booked a private tour for 12 family members with My Ireland Tour in May 2018. They were professional, easy to deal with, and delivered everything I asked for. Their selection of hotels for our group was spot on, and their knowledge of Ireland was invaluable in developing ,and then changing, the itinerary.

Just returned to the states after our 4 person tour of Ireland. I asked Mr O'Gorman to set up my 8 day tour and treat me like his son in law who had never visited the nation. He set up a tour for my wife and another couple that would befit his son. It was spectacular... wonderful unforgettable I recommend his company, Mr O'Gorman, the guide Pat Breen or anything or anyone Mr O'Gorman uses. Put yourself in his hands. Let My Ireland Tours show you the nation. You will never forget or regret you did Marty Felezzola and wife Donna Berkeley Heeights NJ USA

Our trip was AMAZING from start to finish! Our tour guide, David Breen, was second to none. He was an excellent driver & a walking/talking encyclopedia of facts about Ireland. There isn't one thing I would change about this trip - the Ancient Ireland Mini Group Tour was ABSOLUTELY PERFECT! Thank you!

I cannot say enough great things about this tour, and our driver George! I went on the Castles and Backroads Tour with a close friend and we loved it. George was so nice and informative. Along with everyone else we met, he was so welcoming! If I ever take another trip to Ireland in the future, I will definitely be using this tour service again! Loved it!!!

My Mom and I had an amazing trip on the castle tour end of May 2018. We really lucked out on the weather-I wore my raincoat for a total of 4 hours, and was glad my Mom had sunscreen! We never felt rushed and had time to do a bit of relaxing and also exploring on the grounds at each place

Our small group of seven had a wonderful time on our custom 7-day tour of Ireland. Kristel, our My Ireland Tour rep, did a fabulous job helping us put together an 'off-the-beaten-path' itinerary which was just right for our family. Our driver, Mike Darcy, was full of knowledge and made the tour educational and fun!

The small group also made the tour a much more pleasurable experience as you got to spread out on the coach and get to know your fellow travellers in a more relaxed environment. The tour visits and inclusions were awesome and in my opinion the tour as a whole represented fantastic value for money.

This Deluxe Castle Tour was phenomenal. The staff and tour guide were beyond excellent and my wife and I enjoyed the trip very much.

I would highly recommend the 10-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. Every aspect, from planning, payment & connecting with group went smoothly. Our driver/guide, Tom Lavin, was professional in every way & great company, looking after all our needs & keeping us entertained with his knowledge of his home country & family stories.

We just returned from our castle tour, and it was far beyond our expectations. Our guide, George Connelly, was so knowledgeable and professional. He took such good care of all 25 of us on the tour at all times. We had gourmet meals each night ,which we didn't expect), and the accommodations were always exceptional.

We recently took a transatlantic cruise from Miami to Ireland and it worked out perfect that the My Ireland Tour 10 day Iconic Tour started the day we docked in Dublin. MIT agreed to pick us up from the cruise port and at the end of the tour dropped us off at the train station so that we could continue on our journey through Ireland. The hotels and food were great ,love that Irish soda bread and scones). The scenery was spectacular and we enjoyed the company and conversation of those who toured with us.

When trying to plan for my mother's 70th birthday, my sister thought it would be a great idea to fulfill my moms dream of seeing Ireland and visiting her grandfathers former town of Kiltimagh. After doing research, we settled on a private tour through My Ireland Tour. I am pleased to say that we were very satisfied with our decision. Our tour guide, Nigel, was nothing short of spectacular. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, and extremely accommodating. To top things off, Nigel did research and found a small cemetery with graves of my mother's ancestors. He went above and beyond during the entire trip. I cannot say enough great things about this company and Nigel. You provided my family with a wonderful trip and memories that will last a lifetime.

We thoroughly enjoyed our Iconic Tour of Ireland. We saw some beautiful scenery and visited many interesting places. Our guide/driver, Tom, was very friendly, informative and clearly loved his country. The hotels and food were excellent.We were very lucky in that we were a very small group ,11 of us, and everyone got on very well together. I can highly recommend this company for anyone wishing to visit Ireland.

Kristel helped us plan a tour of Ireland for four women. She was so helpful and worked with us through several changes. Our driver Patrick was informative, helpful and flexible. Great way to see the country. While this is certainly a more costly way to travel, we all felt it was well worth it.

We can't say enough great things about our Iconic Scenes of Ireland 10 day tour. Our guide/driver, Nigel O'Connor, was just outstanding. We had a great, small group on our March journey, and Nigel was the perfect host. He has a vast knowledge of the history of this beautiful island and was eager to share it with us. We left Ireland knowing so much about these wonderful Irish people and the beautiful place they live. We urge anyone looking for a truly great experience in Ireland to book the journey with My Ireland Tour. You won't be sad!

Best vacation ever. Maurice who took us all over Ireland was the kindest, most well informed and attentive person. We had my 85 year old mother with us and he could not have been kinder to her. He would bring us as close as possible to every venue to make it easy for her. He also kept our 10 year old super engaged. He was like family by the time our 2 weeks were done. Cannot say enough about the experience and family adventure. We just loved it. The diversity of the places we stayed, the history, the food and the comfort. Thank you so much!

We absolutely can't say enough about our My Ireland Deluxe Castle Tour. We are telling all our friends...do this...you will NOT regret it. Enda, our driver/tour guide was absolutely amazing...to the point that we miss hearing his voice every day. He was full of wonderful information and insight about what we were seeing and the people. All the other guides we met along the way were also extremely knowledgeable. The hotels were gorgeously stunning to stay in and we were treated as royalty by much of the staff at each hotel. Despite some days with poor weather, we were able to keep smiling and keep seeing the many highlights that were on our bucket list. We even got engaged on the Cliffs of Moher...and all our tour-mates and Enda made that joyous occasion even more so. We would absolutely recommend and take another tour with My Ireland Tour...and would absolutely request Enda as our guide.

January 2018 • Historic Irish Castle Tour
We had an awesome time on our trip to Ireland with My Ireland Tour. We wanted to travel in early October 2017, and started planning this experience about a year before. We wanted to structure a private tour for our family of 9 ,including two granddaughters, and right from the start we had a wonderful reception from Kristal. We had a vague idea of what we wanted to see on our first visit to Ireland and chose a modified itinerary for the Castles and Backroads Tour that My Ireland Tours provided but not at the time we wanted to travel. We wanted to substitute a couple of child friendly activities and Kristal came up with two great ones. As you can imagine over the course of a year many things can change and each time we reached out to Kristal she replied quickly and with a “can do' attitude. We took a leap of faith with a company we had never used before and entrusted our family happiness to them. They did not disappoint us. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tours for anybody wanting to have a wonderful experience.

My family and I were on the Essential Ireland Tour at the end of August. This trip was incredible! I have already recommended My Ireland Tours to several friends. We found My Ireland Tours via a Google search. I reached out with some questions and knew we were in good hands when Kristel quickly addressed my concerns. Once in Ireland, our tour guide/driver, Brian, went above and beyond. His knowledge and enthusiasm cannot be beat! Our small group of 12 gave us incredible opportunities that we never would have enjoyed with one of the larger tour organizations. So much was packed into this great little tour, but my family and I never felt rushed or herded. My only complaint is that your company doesnt offer tours throughout Europe. After this wonderful experience, I cant imagine touring with anyone else!

Job well done! to my husband who set up the trip and to My Ireland Tour for being a great host to the Emerald Island. We had a fantastic time and met some wonderful people. Plus, our tour guide/bus driver Edna Sheehan was just amazing. We did the Deluxe Irish Castle Tour and went around a good portion of the island and saw a lot of history. Our accommodations at each location had very nice rooms, excellent food and wonderful staff members. We took our time in the mornings to take leisure walks to explore the grounds and the many wonderful sites to see. During the day we did our exploring with Edna to all Ireland's amazing sites and history. At night we enjoyed a wonderful dinner with new friends. Just a time to remember for a lifetime. Can't say enough wonderful things about Ireland, My Ireland Tour and Enda Sheehan!

I've been back a week from the 10 day Iconic tour... aaannnddddd I want to be back in Ireland. This was my first solo travel adventure as well as my first overseas trip. From the meet and greet on the first night til the very end... I felt very welcome and not at all isolated. It was a great group of people. The Bus was very comfortable with ample space and well equipped with WiFi and the world's best tour guide/chauffeur, George Graham. I wouldn't change a thing about the tour... the hotels were all amazing too!! Slainte.

We have just completed the 15 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland for our 40th wedding anniversary and we were not disappointed in anything. The accomodation was first class and we had 2 drivers Tom and Colm that both knew their stuff. Tom went above and beyond what is expected from a tour guide / driver and his pride in his country showed through. The meals along the way were sensational so much so you just knew you shouldn't eat it all, but it was so good. Crystal was amazing to deal with in the organising side of the tour and her friendliness and professional is an asset to the business. Thanks for a great tour guys, we just loved it.

My sister and I have talked about going to Ireland for several years and finally decided in 2017 to just do it. We looked into several tour companies and I have to say, choosing My Ireland Tour was one of our best decisions. We had an amazing time and loved everything about the trip, from seeing the best that Ireland had to offer to enjoying the time on the bus with our tour guide, George Graham. He was the best and made our time so enjoyable and educational. We did the 10 day Iconic Tours of Ireland tour and I already can't wait to go back. I would recommend this tour group without any hesitation. Kristel was so helpful, it was effortless to get there and find our guide, and we made a lot of new friends along the way. Slainte!

October 2017 • Iconic Scenes
I decided to travel solo to Ireland and came across My Ireland Tours. I have to say by far, this was one of the best trips I have ever traveled. My Ireland Tours was so organized and our Tour Guide George was the best. George was fun to travel with, he has such a great sense of humor and he taught our tour group so much about the history of Ireland. In addition, this was the first group tour I have traveled with and the first time I have ever traveled solo. Our tour group was the best, everyone meshed well together and even though I was traveling alone, everyone on the tour and George made me feel welcomed. I definitely recommend My Ireland Tours if you are deciding to travel to Ireland. Also, I recommend doing the Iconic Scenes of Ireland so you can see all of the beautiful places. The hotel accommodations were also wonderful. I definitely will return to Ireland some day again and would use My Ireland Tours.

Karen and I had a wonderful trip with My Ireland Tours. We made new acquaintances, gained respect for Ireland's history, enjoyed the magnificent views and in general just had a wonderful time. We must admit that George Graham, our tour guide, was the highlite of the tour. His sense of timing and humor, his knowledge of the land and its history made the tour. We are confident that all the tour guides are high quality, but if you're lucky enough to get George, you're in for a treat and an exhilarating tour!

Kristel with My Ireland Tour did an outstanding job helping us choose places to stay and sights to see in Ireland. She took care of everything. When hurricane Irma hit us in Orlando the day we were suppose to fly out, she was able to rearrange our itinerary. We had a wonderful tour guide, Patrick, who was friendly, informative and fun. We spent a week in Ireland starting at the Cliffs of Moher and ending with Trinity College in Dublin. We saw numerous castles and stayed in really great accommodations. If you want a truly great tour in Ireland, choose My Ireland Tour.

This was a trip of a lifetime. Every Castle we stayed in was beautiful and charming. Our driver, Enda, was the best! He was engaging and informative with a good sense of humor. Being on a bus tour with little bitty roads and bridges, Enda knows how to drive that bus! The tour was well planned and we got to see a lot of Ireland. We definitely would recommend this trip.

Thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Ireland. Brian, our drive, was right there waiting for us at the airport and off we all went to our first hotel in Malahide. All hotels were lovely. This being Europe, remember to bring a wash cloth! The tour covered all the highlights and we were lucky enough to have wonderful weather. The only drawback was that poor Brian had to do double duty as the tour guide. I expected a tour guide to be on the bus and narrate our adventure.

My Ireland Tour to the backroads of Southern Ireland was a wonderful Irish experience Harry, our guide, was charming helpful, animated, full of history and quite personable. This was first trip to Ireland for my daughter and I, we saw so much beautiful countryside, stayed in lovely accommodations with good food, perfect organization and friendly atmospheres. Thanks for such a charming, well organized, experience. As a side note, our last day connecting flight required that we leave for the airport at 4:00AM, this request was met cheerfully and we were picked up in a timely manner even though all the other quests were leaving at a more reasonable hour, our request was well handled.

Absolutely AMAZING!!!! My son and I went on the Deluxe Castle Tour and everything far exceeded our hopes and expectations , our driver / guide, Brian O'Rourke was fantastic , he provided very interesting information along the way and worked very hard to make our trip incredible . All of the lodging was first class and the meals were outstanding , we visited some of the most beautiful country I have ever seen , the Hill of Tara , Cliffs of Moher and the rest of the Ring of Kerry , simply breathtaking pictures do not even begin to do it justice. The historic sites : the walled city of Derry , Kylemore Abbey , the Rock of Cashel , Trinity College , Christchurch Cathedral and the Blarney Castle were outstanding , so much history . Our schedule had enough flexible time for individuals in our group to do their own sight seeing , I enjoyed our time in the Guinness Storehouse . I would highly recommend My Ireland Tour to anyone interested in visiting Ireland , I am anxiously waiting to return with the rest of my family so that they can have the same experience . I am looking forward to traveling with My Ireland Tours again , in the near future . Thank you Kristel and My Ireland Tours for giving my son and I memories that will last a lifetime :-,

My daughter age 29 called me one day and said lets do a tour of Ireland. We had never done a bus tour and started researching our options. We came across My Ireland Tours and after much research we decided this tour was the one. Our 10 day trip toured southern Ireland and loved I loved the fact that we had several cities that we spent 2 nights in. Our tour guide Tom Lavin was absolutely the PERFECT tour guide. We could not have asked for anything more! He is kind, compassionate, funny and wanted the 26 passengers on this tour to have an enjoyable experience! And we did!!! We never touched our bags. Everything was done for us. Tom is a true gentleman! Our accommodations were exceptional, the tours were what we expected and the whole experience was better than we anticipated. We met wonderful people from all over the world. My concern was that there would be passengers who were constantly late, but this was not the case. Tom had every minute orchestrated and there was not 1 hitch on our entire trip! If you are planning a trip to Ireland I highly recommend using My Ireland Tours! They are a class act. My daughter and I have memories that will last a lifetime! Thank you Tom, Crystal and all those who helped to organize this wonderful trip!

September 2017 • Deluxe Castles Tour
My mother and I had a fantastic time on the Deluxe Castle Tour with My Ireland Tours. The company is based locally in Ireland; the tour group was just 20 people; the bus was spacious and comfortable; and most importantly, our guide ,Brian, was fantastic! Staying at the castles was fun and one of our favorites moments of the trip was pulling up to Lough Eske Castle where the staff members greeted us out front lined up like the scenes Downton Abbey! The tour stops were all interesting and worthwhile, but two of the best stops were unplanned places Brian added once he got to know the group ,Triona Tweed shop in Donegal and Celtic Crystal near Galway., Our tour group had a range of people: married couples and single travelers; a teenager and some senior citizens; Americans and Brits, etc. We were a mother/adult daughter duo and it was a great fit for us. Go to Ireland! You'll love it!

September 2017 • Historic Irish Castle Tour
Our family took a 'Castles and Backroads' tour in August 2017, and it was a great experience for our first Ireland visit. Prior to our booking, the My Ireland Tour staff ,Kristel and Eric, were very helpful in going over all possible options and discussing our food allergy requirements. When we decided on the specific tour, they kept us informed by email about all the details and helped us with suggestions about day tours we can take before and after the main one. Our driver-guide, Brian, was really excellent in telling us stories about the places we visited ,Cliffs of Moher, Kylemore Abbey, Galway, Kilkenny Castle, and others). The hotels ,Kinnitty Castle and Abbey Glen Castle, were very romantic and beautiful, and the food was excellent. We certainly recommend this tour to anyone new to Ireland and looking to see its historic countryside.

September 2017 • My Ireland Tour Package
My daughter and I chose the Essential Tour of Ireland ,Aug. 2017). This was by far the best decision we could have made. The trip/tour was amazing and exceeded our expectations. Our tour guide Enda was phenomenal and made this tour a great experience!!!!!. The days are packed but you do get time at night ,early evening, to explore on your own. Strongly suggest the Arlington hotel Celtic dinner show, IrelandEpic Emmigration Museum, Bleecker St. Café, The Celt Lounge, the Church....... just walking around was a great way to take in this great city. I was worried about the make up of people that could be on the tour but turns out we met some pretty AMAZING people. Although the tour holds 35 people, we ended up with 20 which was perfect. I have and will continue to recommend this tour and company to others. You will not be disappointed in any way!!! Already looking to book a return trip.......

We just returned from our 10 day tour of Iconic Ireland and it exceeded our expectations in every way. From the time we were picked up at the airport, we did not have to worry about anything but making the most of our time in Ireland and having fun doing it! Tom Lavin was the very best driver/guide that we could have hoped for. He was professional in addition to be incredibly knowledgeable about his beloved Ireland and we totally enjoyed his stories as well as the history he provided, Thank you so much Tom, well done!!! The hotels were beautiful and the food was incredible. I have traveled to the UK with a larger tour company and I will attest that My Ireland Tours was hands down the best tour ever. Again, thank you for great service and a most memorable experience! Julia and John Orshal

August 2017 • Deluxe Castles Tour
Fantastic experience! My husband and I went on the 10-Day Deluxe Castle tour in mid-July and it was perfect. Our main concern was what the group dynamic would be - a bunch of strangers together on a bus for 9 days?? It ended up being great! Our entire group was 12 people; many of them told us of previous tours they had gone on with other popular companies where they were part of 50+ people, so there were two buses full of tourists getting on and off the bus at every site; sounds like mayhem and pretty impersonal. All of us were from the US, of all walks of life, with all different interests and experiences, but we were all eager to explore and see everything we could while in Ireland. We all had two seats to ourselves on the bus, so we could spread out as we pleased. It also allowed us to eat most breakfasts and dinners together which was a great bonding time. Don't even get me started on our bus driver, the wonderful Brian. He was so kind and eager to let us do as much as we could.

August 2017 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
This is a review for the Iconic Scenes of Ireland 10-day Tour in May 2017. At first, I wasn't sure if I wanted to do a tour or go solo, but as I was traveling alone in a country I wasn't familiar with ,and I wasn't ready to try driving on the other side of the road just yet), I opted for a tour. I am so glad I decided to go with My Ireland Tours. The whole process was smooth as can be. Kristel was great at answering all of my questions ,including what would be best to pack as I was journeying from the Sunshine State!). Our driver, Brian O'Rourke, was amazing. He was friendly and tried to accommodate what we wanted to see and how long we wanted to spend in certain areas. He gave us some backstory on places we passed, and he took us to a few that weren't on the itinerary! I was so pleased to have taken this trip. The people I met were great, the country was gorgeous, the accommodations were wonderful, and the whole experience was one I won't forget anytime soon. In fact, before we left, several of us were already talking about a RETURN trip. I have recommended My Ireland Tours to everyone - friends, colleagues, even the nurse when I went for my physical! Thank you so much to Kristel, Brian, and everyone who was involved in making such an unforgettable trip wonderful.

July 2017 • My Ireland Tour Package
I have worked with Eric several times over the years and each time has been an exciting and unique experience. I have run both coach trips and smaller group trips via luxury van. One of the major things MyIreland does best is the value of the accommodations. All of the places included in the tours are centrally located. Watch the cookie cutter tours that appear to be less expensive. That's usually because they put people in hotels that are far from the city centers or walking distance to anything. The drivers have always been outstanding and willing to go off course and make suggestions. Communication with the office is outstanding from the moment you ask for information to completion of the tour and afterwards. I am always looking forward to my next trip with this company. There will be many many more! Brian O'C Boston, MA

Tony and I had the 'best time' on our 10 day, My Ireland tour of the south. We had a comfortable roomy coach with only 22 passengers which was wonderful, always able to have a good space for viewing the beautiful green countryside. On arrival in Dublin we were met at the airport by Tom Levin our driver/guide who was a professional, knowledgeable, very likeable man who went beyond expectations to ensure all his group were well taken care of. He was also an excellent driver and we were in very safe hands. Accommodation and meals were of a high standard and the two night stays were appreciated. We visited many iconic sites and the constant beauty of Ireland was like a story book. The itinerary put together by My Ireland was A1. Thank you to Kristel and all concerned.

I had been looking forward to visiting Ireland for years. My Ireland Tour surpassed my expectations. We were able to experience so much of this beautiful island. Even locals we met in Dublin said they hadn't been to some of the places we were able to visit on our trip. I want to especially thank our tour guide Tom Lavin. He is an excellent guide and listening to his stories was a highlight, thanks again!

My husband and I took the 6 Day Iconic Tour and had a wonderful time. The tour itself covered everything we wanted to see and for us, it was the perfect length. My Ireland Tours was all-out professional from the start. Our driver was waiting for us at the airport, the bus was comfortable, extra bonus that all the other people on our tour were friendly and fun. And a huge shout out to our driver, Enda who was not only knowledgeable but extremely personable.

July 2017 • My Ireland Tour Package
Our tour of Ireland from Dublin down to the southwest coast, up to Galway and back to Dublin from June 20-29, 2017, was a pure delight. From the time Ted, our driver/guide picked us up at Dublin Airport to the time we ended in Dublin, we saw a beautiful country which surprised us with its diverse terrain. We were pleased to extremely pleased with our guest houses and hotels, enjoyed a variety of sites to visit and had some special experiences, like a night in a pub listening to music performed by old friends of our driver that he'd just met on the street by chance. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tour and will definitely use them again when we return to Ireland.

My mother and I did the Iconic Scenes of Ireland 10 day tour, starting in Dublin and stopping in Galway, Killarney, Cork and a number of other places. Our driver/guide Brian was fantastic. He was incredibly informative and knowledgeable, and happy to socialise with the tour group at meals. This created a wonderful atmosphere and all 26 in the group got on very well. It was a pleasure to travel with them. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone as a great introduction to Ireland!

Just returned from a 8 day vacation of Ireland through 'My Ireland' tours and had a great time. The trip was well planned and delivered without any issues. All accommodations exceed expectations and Pat our bus driver was very friendly and knowledgeable of every city we visited. I highly recommend 'My Ireland' tours if you are looking t plan a vacation in Ireland. Looking forward to returning to Ireland.

The 'BEST' that we could hoped for! My wife and I were celebrating our 30th anniversary during the Deluxe Castle Tour. The tours, accommodations, the food, and our tour guide Tom were outstanding! Every day was a new treat with the different tours and accommodations. Only having 26 people on the tour was perfect size, plenty of room to spread out on the bus. We made friends for life and memories we will cherish forever.

We had an amazing tour of Ireland on the 10-Day Iconic Scenes itinerary. Kristel, in the office, was so helpful with questions and guidance. With a smaller bus holding only 40 people and only 26 people on the tour, this allowed the group to spread out get to know each other. From the time he picked us up at the Dublin airport to the time he dropped us off to go home, our driver/guide, Tom Lavin, handled every detail with ease and professionalism.

We thoroughly enjoyed our Deluxe Castle Tour! Every detail was met. Kristel, in the office did a great job in planning and attending to the details of our trip and accommodations. Every place we stayed was beautiful. The places we visited on the tour were interesting and fun. Tony our tour guide is simply the best! He was very informative and has a very nice singing voice! What a treat it was to learn from and travel with him. If you have a chance to travel with Tony, take it! Since this was our 40th anniversary celebration, extra special touches were added. This was truly the trip of a lifetime. We highly recommend using My Ireland Tour when traveling to Ireland. It really is the best way to go. You will be pleased.

We just returned from the 15 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland - North and South tour. Can't say enough wonderful things about Tom Lavin, our driver/guide. He went above and beyond to make sure all 22 of his passengers had the most memorable experience ever. He gave us an historical background of Ireland and all the places we visited with his unique style and sense of humor. Unfortunately, my husband was unwell during much of our tour but Tom made sure that he knew where he could wait for the group with a nice cup of tea if he didn't feel up to the walking. I would highly recommend Tom and My Ireland Tour to anyone interested in having an entertaining and informative tour of Ireland.

June 2017 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
We had an absolutely fabulous trip on the 10 Day Iconic Tour. We were a little nervous due to an age gap within our group ,us being the youngest at 32 years old!, but that quickly went away once we met everyone. The entire group had such a zest for life and infinite curiosity for the country, and by the end of it we all felt like family. Our driver, Brian, truly made our trip special. He was SO knowledgeable and made all of our trips go by quickly with the amount of information he knew about the country and also his humor and kindness went above and beyond. We were grateful that each hotel stay was 2 days so we didn't feel overwhelmed and everything was completely seamless. It was SO nice to have everything planned except for some free time in the afternoon and our hotels were within walking distance of all the town centers so we felt completely safe enjoying the nights out after dinner. We left feeling like we have seen a lot, but knowing there is so much more to see. We would definitely like to return and when we do, we'll be booking a tour through this company ,and requesting Brian if possible)!!

We enjoyed our 'Iconic scenes of Ireland' very much. The seamless experience beginning with making our reservations, airport pickup, drop off with the company was extremely smooth and pleasant. Selection of itinerary, Tour bus, hotels was very comfortable. Appreciate accommodating my vegetarian wife. Being a small tour company and a small group felt very welcoming and warm. Our driver Tony was very caring, knowledgeable, informative and funny. I'd definitely recommend this company. Thanks Myirelandtour for making our Ireland trip memorable.

May 2017 • My Ireland Tour Package
If you are going to Ireland, don't bother to look at other tours. Book this one! We booked this tour to celebrate our 50th anniversary on April 28 and we can't say enough about it. The hotels are first class, the meal are excellent, and the itinerary is very comprehensive. We had plenty of time to see all the locations we visited, never feeling rushed from place to place. Since they limited the number of people on each tour, the bus was comfortable for everyone, with plenty of room to relax in-between stops. If you are lucky enough to have Tony as your guide/driver, than you surely have the luck of the Irish. Thank you making our anniversary extra special. Can't wait to return.

I will definitely use My Ireland Tour the next time we visit Ireland. Our party of 8 had a tremendous time. Our driver, David, was everything we asked for and more - he was full of insights, attentive to our needs, was flexible with our daily schedule, and was a pure delight. The sprinter van was first-class, comfortable, and connecting to Wi-Fi was an added bonus.
Elena
July 2017 • My Ireland Tour Package
My husband and I had never been to Ireland, so we asked Kristel from My Ireland Tours to arrange our itinerary. Our trip could not have been better. Our driver, Kevin O'Sullivan, was the best - he was punctual, professional, flexible, and had a great sense of humor. In addition, Kevin enriched our journey along the way with his knowledge of the history and culture of Ireland. All of our lodging and tours were arranged by Kristol in advance, so my husband and I did not have to do anything but show-up, and everything ran smoothly without a hitch. We will never forget our trip to Ireland - the beauty of the country, and the kindness of the Irish people are amazing!
Melinda Gribben
May 2017 • Ancient Ireland Tour
My husband and I took the small group tour of Ancient Ireland. There were 6 people total in our group. It was the best decision we made regarding our trip. Our guide, David Breen, was FABULOUS! He shared a wealth of knowledge about each of the areas we visited. He answered all of our questions and was very patient with my husband and me. My husband broke his foot 2 weeks before our trip, so we moved much slower than the other 4 passengers because he had to use crutches and sometimes a cane when walking. The sites that we visited were wonderful. The Brooks Hotel was extremely friendly. Connor, the Concierge, at the Hotel provided a lot of recommendations for dinner, shopping, and other attractions in Dublin. The Ballynahinch Castle was gorgeous. We definitely felt special while staying there. The grounds were beautiful and our room was very comfortable. The food was simply amazing. The Lake Hotel was also beautiful. David arranged for us to go see Celtic Steps while in Killarney. It was fabulous. One of my favorite things to do on the whole trip. There were LOTS of opportunities to shop and find that special 'trinket' to take back home. The coach we traveled in was also very comfortable. It even had WiFi so we could check emails, send texts, or anything else online. There were also charging stations for our devices at each seat. The small group tour was definitely the way to see Ireland instead of the big tour buses. We brought home many ,430, photographs of the beautiful and unique areas we visited. We also brought home a wealth of information that David shared with us through out our trip. If we visit Ireland again, the small group tour with My Ireland Tours is definitely how we will go.

November 2016 • My Ireland Tour Package
Sit Back, Relax and Enjoy the Ride! Our 'MIT' started in Dublin ,9/20-29, and ended in Belfast and what an adventure we had. The pace was extremely adequate for our age ,50+, group. Do the Irish loop when you are able as some of the touristy attractions require moderate walking/climbing at times. There were no headaches on deciding where we were going, parking hassles or problems to be had. Our timeframe was well planned by MIT and accommodated our schedules... GLASHA House is an inn not to be missed. Of course the highlight of our trip was our phenomenal driver Enda who MADE this trip. He was very professional, efficient and so easy to get along with. He is terribly funny and enjoys his job tremendously. He squeezed in extras that we hadn't allotted time for and put smiles on our faces. KUDOS Enda-we miss you ,your MF Canadian friends)This stress-free way to enjoy unfamiliar territory is a must. It allowed for the real 'taste' of Ireland to be had. Pay the few extra Euros and enjoy the Ride. It is well worth it and you'll be happy you did!

Love, love, love! I am so happy that my husband Justin and I found this tour company. We just got back from the Ancient Ireland tour and all I can say is that it was the very best decision we could have made... We were a bit nervous doing a tour but this 8-person tour was perfect and we are already thinking about returning with family and taking up all 8 seats next time :). We also lucked out with an AMAZING driver, Tom Lavin, and he really made this trip special. He loves Ireland and is so knowledgeable... kind, informative and just a great person.

I had a fantastic time on the Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. I spoke with Kristel prior to the tour, who was always helpful and friendly. We visited beautiful locations, stayed in great hotels and learned so much about Irish history. Special thanks to our driver-guide, Tom, for such a great tour! He did a wonderful job with telling stories and making sure everyone was enjoying themselves and taken care of. I would recommend My Ireland Tour to anyone wanting to visit Ireland.

If I could give more than 5-stars, I would! My family had an absolutely incredible experience doing a week-long private tour with My Ireland Tour from the wonderful guidance that we received from Eric and team to develop our perfect itinerary to our amazing driver-guide Tony who become part of our family during the week that we spent with him. The hotels were beautiful and in great locations... I am so glad that we selected My Ireland Tour for our vacation and I would give them my highest recommendation!
Craig Phillips
November 2016 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
We just returned from 10 wonderful days in southern Ireland. Our driver Brian was a gem. The planned sites as well as a few unplanned side trips were great. Even the weather cooperated with 10 days of dry warmth. We started in Dublin, went to the far west, south to Killarney, thru Cork and back for a few days in Dublin. Could have had a little more free time to visit some more pubs but overall I think everyone on our small, modern bus ,only 22 people, enjoyed themselves.
Kris Day
November 2016 • Deluxe Castles Tour
We went on the luxury castle tour and got a very good, broad sense of Ireland. The tour went into Northern Ireland and then south in a general loop of the island back into Dublin. At some stops we had local guides who were fantastic. More of that could be good, but we feel like we got what we paid for. Some hotels were definitely superior to others. The dinners at the great hotels were great but the dinners at the attractive but mediocre hotels were clearly on a 'package' level and midrange quality which was our biggest disappointment. It would suit me if they moved dinners to 7PM instead of 7:00 and 8:00.
Andy Hall
October 2016 • My Ireland Tour Package
Fantastic trip!! I have travelled extensively ,averaging 3 months a year, and this was one of the best tours ever. The guide made the difference. Tony was the best guide I have had anywhere. Totally knowledgeable about virtually everything in Ireland down to the last date and a born entertainer! He went out of his way to make this the best trip for each of us. The hotels were very good and located in the best places. I will return and will request Tony every time. Highly recommend this tour to anyone really interested in learning about Ireland in a fun way.

We took the Iconic Tour in October. I can't speak more highly of our experience. Our guide, Tony, was exceptional. He was well informed, patient, humorous. The hotels were first class and the food was excellent. The hours of the day were well planned. We never felt bored or rushed. Our baggage was taken to and from the room in a seamless manner, leaving us time to relax in the morning and evenings. The places visited were always interesting, with no waiting. Local guides hired to lead our group were very knowledgable and enthusiastic. We will return for another tour.

The iconic scenes of Ireland tour was fantastic! Eric and Kristel were quick to answer any questions I had leading up to the trip and Tom, our driver-guide, was friendly, professional, and conscientious of what everyone was looking for in their vacation. As a solo female traveller, I never once felt unsafe or left behind. The tour really gave me a more detailed sense of Irish history, and how its brought them to be the country they are today. I highly recommend My Ireland Tour to anyone looking to visit this beautiful country!

We'll be sure to use your company again in the future!

I initially fell in love with the website! My 'love affair' continued when dealing with Eric and the girls in the office. Their friendly accommodating attitude really won me over. The culmination of this 'love affair' was of course the tour itself. From the very comfortable bus, the extremely friendly driver Tony with his very extensive knowledge of Irish history and his easy going personality, not to mention his sense of humour!!! Loved every minute of it. I will be back! I still need to see Northern Ireland!

We were a very diverse group of people who came together for 10 days and had a fabulous time together. I did a lot of research on the net looking for the 'perfect' tour and although there is no such thing-this one was great. The small number of people, the places we saw, the meals and sites that were included in the overall price, our incredibly patient, knowledgeable guide/bus driver-it was all I'd hoped it would be. And Tony, you were the best, JUST SAYING! Thanks for the memories to all of you.

The Scenic Tour was a wonderful adventure. The Tour Company is great and you get what you pay for…no hidden costs and fantastic value for money. Our driver/tour guide was exceptional…knew the 'lie of the land' well, was pleasant and had a great sense of humour. Would recommend My Ireland Tours as a reputable, knowledgeable and sincere Company. Lovely people to have dealt with at every step of the experience.

This tour was awesome. The itinerary was perfect for my first visit to Ireland. The hotels were beautiful and everything was so well planned from soup to nuts. Our driver Tony really made the trip - he was so knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. I am recommending this trip to all my friends.
Diana Ireland
2016 • Custom / Private Tour
I found My Ireland Tour on a fluke as I was trying to compare tour prices with other tour companies. We received a better deal going with a private tour compared to buses filled with 30+ strangers. Make you sure you do your homework and check with My Ireland Tour so you have all of the best options! You will not regret it! We sure didn't! We had a family of 4 and the private van tour was the BEST decision. I don't think we will travel to Ireland again any other way. I would like to extend my greatest thanks to Kristel for putting together an amazing trip for us at My Ireland Tour. I picked out a few options that we could do while in Galway City and Kristel recommended a few other options which included Trad on the Prom and that was the BEST decision! She was responsive and when there were any questions, she was very quick to advise. The staff are professional and courteous and you will not be disappointed! The B&B, hotels, and castle that was picked out for our stays could not be beat! Great selection and location and we were really able to enjoy what each location had to share! Our driver, Pat Breen, was an amazing history teacher, comedian and guide. He has now become apart of our family and our next trip will most definitely be with Pat again - hands down. Your driver will make your trip even greater and we appreciate what Pat did for us. He offered amazing suggestions based on our schedule and each day was a new adventure. You'll be in GREAT hands while touring Ireland if you go with this travel agency. We love Ireland, the people, and the culture and can't wait to go back to visit! Thank you My Ireland Tour for making our visit such a memorable and easy experience!!

Thank you for a superb tour of Ireland. We will highly recommend this tour to anyone thinking of a trip to your lovely and friendly Ireland. The hotels and meals were great. We really appreciated that all dinners were included in the cost and we enjoyed the fact that we had a small number of companions on the tour( by day 2 there were no strangers, and having a small ,new, bus was a bonus especially when seeing a 52 passenger bus unloading alongside of us. we were off the bus and in the attraction by the time they unloaded. Our driver/guide, Tony was very knowledgeable, accommodating , friendly, humorous and a good singer. My wife and I thank you all

My husband and I could not have asked for more from our trip to Ireland. The country is stunningly beautiful. The people were very friendly and we felt at home immediately. Our guide/driver, Tony, was absolutely wonderful. He helped to make our trip memorable as well. He told us so much about his country, not only the history, but also information about Ireland today...If you are planning a trip to Ireland and want to get the most out of the time you have, do not hesitate to book your tour through My Ireland Tour company!!

We could not have been more pleased with our trip to Ireland and owe much of that to My Ireland Tours. They helped make us feel so welcome to Ireland. We were able to see many major and out of the way sights in Ireland that really helped shape our love and appreciation of this beautiful country and its wonderful people. We loved that the very comfortable coach was smaller ,held 25 people, and we could get around to more areas than with a full-sized bus. The accommodations were above average and well located and the meals provided were excellent... Eight thumbs up from this family of four!

What a wonderful tour experience. The scenery was majestic, the information was concise and pertinent, the hotels were lovely and oh my, our tour guide, Tony, was what every tourist would wish.

Our driver was exceptionally professional and made our trip amazing from start to finish. All the hotels we stayed in were superb. I did a lot of research for possible tour options in Ireland and am very pleased with the exceptional quality and value of service my family received with Discover Ireland Tours.

This was a dream vacation. It's hard to feel the excitement in a written review, but believe me, this review is written with passion. From the beginning, we felt like we found a good tour company. We didn't know anyone who had used My Ireland Tour but we took a gamble and we are so glad we got what we had hoped for. Kristel and Eric were so kind and reachable which was something we had issues with OTHER tour groups. We especially enjoyed the smaller group/bus and we became 'family' over the 10 days... Our tour guide/bus driver, Brian O'Rouke, brought such life and fun to our trip...
Nathan Burbank

My family of five had a fantastic vacation in Ireland these past 10 days, and we completely hit it off with our driver guide, Pat Breen.

I wanted to leave a note about our customized tour arranged by Eric O'Gorman with My Ireland Tours. My sister and I spent many weeks working with Eric to develop a tour for our small group of 6 people. Eric was extremely accommodating, answering all of our questions and offering his expertise into everything Ireland. He was also more than happy to work with each individual's special arrangements.... I would highly recommend working with Eric O'Gorman and My Ireland Tours to customize your next trip to Ireland!

If you are considering a trip to any of the locations that My Ireland Tours covers, don't hesitate! Just pick your tour and dates, and book your trip! Communication was excellent and very easy. We took the 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. The price and itinerary were excellent! Hotels were all very good! Three of our group of 5 had been to Ireland multiple times, but were still very enthusiastic about many of the stops that were unique. One of the true highlights was the excellent tour guide, Tony McGoey. We kept us entertained with information about the places that we visited, but more than that, he was a fountain of knowledge about the history of Ireland. His lessons added so much depth to the places that we saw, and to our overall appreciation of Ireland and the Irish people. He also has an amazing singing voice and entertained us with songs, as well as with his wicked sense of humor. The bus was extremely comfortable and roomy. We were able to cover so much more in one trip than we could have if we arranged our own itinerary. Tony is also an amazing driver! We were in awe of his capabilities!

We recently returned from the 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour and LOVED it! Our guide/driver Tom Lavin was exceptional! He shared his vast knowledge of Ireland's story, past and present - some with a somber tone and some with his comedic side! We even gave Tom credit for providing sunshine - especially at the Cliffs of Moher, along the Wild Atlantic Way and through the Ring of Kerry! Each day was a fun adventure and at the end of the tour this great group had fun with traditional food, song. and dance at the Merry Ploughboy Pub! A definite 5-star vacation!

Almost everything was perfect: We loved Ireland, we liked very much the hotels, our guide (John Patrick Mulryan) was of top quality both as a guide and as a driver and we loved the dinners together and the final show with Irish music and dancing. The ONLY NEGATIVE: Really tall people cannot fit in the bus. One of us is very tall (6'6' or 1.98m - for people that use the decimal system). The bus was really uncomfortable for him. My advise to tall people: Talk to My Ireland Tour about how they can make such a person more comfortable.

I loved that everything was taken care of and we never had to worry about getting from one place to another.

Incredible tour! We were fortunate to have one of the most interesting and knowledgeable guides EVER! Don O'Donoghue was like an Irish Encyclopedia. His finesse at solemnly narrating 'the troubles' experienced in Ireland were a touching reminder of all that the Irish have endured. His love and pride for his Country and Countrymen were evident in all of his tales. Many of those tales were laced with his grand, wicked Irish humor which kept us wanting more! I will treasure this experience for many years to come.

Our 'My Ireland Tour' was fantastic! We had a small private group - 6 women including mom, sisters & cousins. I worked with the planner to create a custom tour that included all our key destinations in the time-period we wanted. We met our driver and guide in Dublin, Dave, and he was wonderful. He brought us everywhere, provided historical information and stories of the past. It was a magical time! I would use them again in a heartbeat. We all highly recommend.

October 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
A great way to see Ireland! First class four and five star accommodations and dining. Smaller coaches that aren't filled to capacity. Very well run and organized. All of the major attractions are seen and enjoyed. And I cannot say enough about our driver, Tom L. He is a gem. Very knowledgeable about the history of the attractions and regions we visited. He also spoke about modern Ireland, it's agriculture and industry, and how diverse the nation has become as a member of the European Union. Look no further when choosing a tour company in Ireland! The country's natural beauty is simply stunning. For me, a person who is and always has been keenly aware of the world around me, the beauty was often overwhelming. Call it spiritual, if you will. It often gave me goosebumps and reminded me of how small I am on this planet we call home. You will not be disappointed with this company. I'm so very grateful for this amazing journey.

Our brilliant guide and awesome driver, Harry took us on a fantastic trip from Dublin to Cork, onwards to Killarney, the Ring of Kerry, Galway, the wilds of Connemara and a final tour of Dublin. Lakes, mountains, grand castles, stunning views and welcoming Irish folk. A tour that will stay in my memory for many years to come. Also a special thanks to the behind the scenes team who made sure our trip ran like clockwork. Well done one and all.

Simply an amazing lifetime experience that was fully coordinated by My Ireland Tour. Literally everything in the description of the 10-day tour was spot on, no shortcuts. Hotels, food, weather, cities, towns, tours, bus, tour guide(Tony)- they handled it all! Perfect amount of time in each location, and our tour guide Tony was incredibly knowledgeable about Ireland’s history, great communication, and much much more. It wouldn’t have been the same without him and his passion for Ireland. If you have the opportunity to request him, you won’t be disappointed. Give that man a raise!

We did the 6 day iconic tour and we saw Cliffs of Moher, Ring of Kerry, Galway, Dublin, Midleton Distillery, EPIC museum, Blarney Castle, beautiful landscapes, and so much along the way! The people of Ireland are so friendly and the planning of My Ireland Tours was executed perfectly. We will absolutely be going back and will use this company again! Thank you for a great week and a fabulous way to spend my 40th birthday!

We just finished a 16 day private tour of Scotland & Ireland. We had an amazing experience starting with planning our tour with Kristel to our actual trip with our driver/guide, Ger. Everything from the hotel choices, restaurants and areas to visit were all of the highest quality. Ger used his many years of experience to make small adjustments to our tour that made everything run more smoothly and greatly improved our overall trip. We will definitely recommend My Ireland Tour company to anyone thinking of visiting these beautiful countries in the future.

This is the way to see Ireland, especially as a first-time visitor or wishing to explore undiscovered parts. From my first communication with My Ireland Tour to being dropped back at Dublin Airport, my holiday was perfect. The coach was so comfortable, hotels the same. Our group, from the USA and Australia, lovely (and welcoming to this solo traveller). Our brilliant driver/guide Karl White made the holiday, keeping us safe, getting us everywhere on time, ushering us into attractions with good advice and educating/entertaining us. Great value and highly recommended.
Jean Billington
September 2024 • Iconic Britain and Ireland Tour
We picked the iconic Britain & Ireland 18 day tour. First, our Tour Guide was absolutely phenomenal! Check-ins (hotels & the various places we stopped) was quick & efficient. She knew so much history about all the places we visited and her talks made those places come alive for me! Our tour bus driver was truly stellar! He made sure we were on time for all the places we visited while keeping us safe on some incredibly narrow roads. The pace on some days was faster than on other days which made the entire tour that much more enjoyable. The places we visited, hotels we stayed at, and places we had dinner were thoughtfully planned out with our comfort in mind. So glad we chose My Ireland Tour for this wonderful vacation experience! I highly recommend My Ireland Tour.

We just got back from the eight day iconic Ireland Tour. It was amazing. Harry was our tour guide and he took customer service to a whole new level. We fell in love with the country in a matter of days. Everything was planned out perfectly. I highly recommend this tour company for these trips, I look forward to our next adventure

Fabulous tour company, experiences and guides. This is a little late but I traveled on the 14 day Iconic Ireland tour in June of 2024. My Ireland Tours made this a fantastic trip. We had been looking at other tour groups but had questions prior to booking. My Ireland Tours resomded promptly and answered all of our questions which prompted us to book with them. I am so glad that we did. Starting with those first questions to the final day of the tour it was a great experience. Our tour guide Sean was amazing. He managed a cancelled flight, 2 medical issues and a couple of hotel service issues all while still providing the rest of us with a fabulous time. He was personable, friendly and you could tell he wanted to make this an unforgettable journey. I can not say enough good things about My Ireland Tours and their staff. i would highly recommend them to anyone traveling to Ireland and looking for a tour group.

** Outstanding Experience** Absolutely loved MyIrelandTour and our tour guide John McSweeney. 100% recommend John McSweeney’s guidance made our family of 7, Ireland tour remarkable. He was incredibly communicative and flexible, accommodating all our needs effortlessly. John’s creative and educational approach to guiding brought Irish history to life for our family.

John McSweeney is an absolutely phenomenal tour guide. His flexibility allowed us to explore at our own pace, and his kindness made us feel truly welcomed. John's extensive knowledge and storytelling kept us entertained and educated throughout our entire tour of Ireland. We couldn't have asked for a better guide and experience!

We truly enjoyed My Ireland Tours. Part of our vacation was with this tour group. We choose a max group of 8 but it ended up being just 5 of us. We had a wonderful time together doing the Ancient Ireland 8 day tour! David Breen was our driver and he was exceptional! He is very knowledgeable, funny and truly made our experience very memorable. If you ever consider a tour group, I do recommend this company!

August 2024 • Deluxe Castles Tour
My mom and I recently returned from a fantastic 10-day Deluxe Irish Castle Tour. When I woke up and went to work on my first day home, it felt like it had all been a dream! We usually travel independently, but we decided to try a group tour to maximize our sightseeing on the island. We chose My Ireland Tour because of the small group size (26), the unique accommodations, and the fact that the company is Irish-owned and -operated. They certainly delivered! Booking was easy and communications from Shannon were prompt and detailed. The hotels were beautifully appointed and the included breakfasts and dinners were convenient and filling. The nightly three-course dinners could be long (2 hours) but the presentation was exquisite and the food was delicious, especially the Irish lamb and beef. My favorite hotel was Lough Eske Castle with its warm welcome and serene setting. We loved the diverse itinerary. The only site we didn’t enjoy was the Guinness Storehouse (not into beer, crowded, and not much substance); in hindsight, we should have tried to walk to one of Dublin’s many museums instead. My itinerary highlights were Derry and our walking tour by Gerry, seeing Connemara ponies up close at Kylemore Abbey, the scenic driving in Connemara and Kerry, the herding demonstration by Tom O’Sullivan of Kells Sheepdogs, and the tour by Daire of Christ Church Cathedral from belfry to crypt. Last but definitely not least, a memorable part of the trip was our driver-guide, Tom Lavin. Tom has the perfect personality: conscientious, witty, never overbearing but attentive and ready to step in with advice. His professional driving skills are second to none, always prepared to evade wild drivers or wayward sheep. On two occasions, our group broke into applause after some particularly difficult maneuvering. Tom was able to talk at length about any topic: history, agriculture, politics, education, religion, the environment, healthcare, music, etc. We learned a lot and really appreciated hearing the knowledge and personal anecdotes he shared (I have a PhD in history and I learned more about Irish culture and society from Tom than I ever could have researched on my own!). I highly recommend My Ireland Tour. I know I will cherish memories of this tour and be wishing I was “on that N17, stone walls and the grass is green” for years to come.

Just completed the 8 day tour, with John as our driver and it was excellent! We were kept busy seeing all the sights, while being driven around in a comfortable coach with a terrific and knowledgeable guide. We saw the sights we wanted to see, the hotels were very nice and the meals included (all breakfasts and dinners) were wonderful. Would recommend to others for sure!
Jeff Cross

We recently completed an 8 day tour of Ireland with My Ireland Tours. We were very satisfied with the itinerary and our driver/guide Peter. He took great care of us and was very informative. 2 of the 3 hotels we stayed in were excellent; the other was nice. The level of activity vs. free time was well balanced.

We just end our 10 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland, and it was AMAZING!! This was my son and mine’s first trip to Ireland, and we would definitely go again. We had Brian as our driver, if I could give him a million stars, I would. He was very engaging, super knowledgeable and a wonderful driver/guide. He had a wonderful sense of humor and made sure we all were having a great time. If you’re looking to see Ireland, this is 100% the way to go.

The 14 day tour was excellent. We were able to experience the history, the culture and the beauty of Ireland. Our tour guide Michael Coleman was second to none. I highly recommend My Ireland Tours.
Candace Bell
July 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
Wow! Our My Ireland Tour of Iconic Scenes of Ireland was absolutely the best. Think beautiful, informative, comfortable and fun. Ireland and Northern Ireland are so lovely with each day bringing something spectacular to see or do. Information and commentary was provided by Don, our travel guide and driver. His expertise, care and concern and, most of all, sense of humor was the standout bonus of our trip. I could go on about the comfortable accommodations and good food (and drink) but the bottom line is two weeks with absolutely no worries and laughter more than once a day.
Brendan Fennessy
July 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
My family (mom, dad, two sisters, and 12-year-old niece) and I just got back from the 10-Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour and highly recommend it! Prior to booking our trip, Shauni was friendly and quick to respond to emails, answering all the additional questions we had. Our driver-guide Don O Donoghue was great! He was informative, funny, and a skilled driver of the coach. The days were well-organized and provided the right amount of time at each attraction listed on the itinerary. When timing worked in our favor, Don was able to add a couple of extra photo ops for us. The hotel accommodations, overall, were pleasing. The included meal options were varied enough and delicious each day. We were also able to request a kid’s menu! However, be prepared to have no minifridges in the room and be patient with the lengthiness of dinners, especially when other tour groups are present! What my family appreciated the most about My Ireland Tour was the flexibility: as long as we communicated with our driver-guide with enough notice, we were able to veer from the group for a portion of time to visit nearby family in the areas we traveled. If you’re looking for a leisurely and comfortable way to travel around Ireland, this is the trip for you!

July 2024 • 6 Day Iconic Scenes
My first time in Ireland and I did the 6 day iconic scenes of Ireland tour. Our driver guide was George Murray and he made the tour thoroughly enjoyable. His knowledge of the history and culture of Ireland seemed to know no limits! He was full of helpful tips about how to get the most out of our time and also suggestions about where to go in the evenings. Ireland is so beautiful and I want to come back before too long. Thank you so much George and My Ireland.
Liselotte Kristensen
July 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
The tour was very organized and structured to allow us to see as much of Ireland as possible during our stay. Our guide Patty was funny and knowledgeable. The hotels were clean and comfortable. The food was good and the last night was so much fun. I would probably book a tour next time with just breakfast included to allow for more choice at lunch and dinner time. I loved the small tour group experience very much. I would have liked more time at some spots (Cliffs of Moher, Kylemore Abbey), but we were still able to see a lot. Departure times each morning were reasonable. Loved the whole experience and would definitely recommend.
Don Carter
July 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
Had a great time on the Scotland/Ireland tour. Our tour guide Brian was great; a lot of fun and very knowledgeable. Saw everything that needed to be seen. Hotels were very nice. Made 15 new friends which was a real bonus. When I saw other tour busses jam packed I realized what a great value we had in the small group package that MyIrelandTours specializes in. Highly recommended.

This was our first trip to Ireland and it was amazing. Our guide, Garey, was knowledgeable, friendly, and had a great sense of humor. He made great recommendations for things to do, places to eat, etc. at each of our stops where we were able to explore on our own as well as gave us history, fun facts and general background information for the various places along our route. Every day brought us a taste of what Ireland has to offer and we are looking forward to a day when we can return!

From start to finish, My Ireland Tour was responsive to our requests. We booked a bespoke tour with 2 other friends for North Ireland and the Republic of Ireland for 12 days. They set it up, contracted a wonderful driver/transport company, and adjusted our itinerary for maximum experiences (thanks for taking us to the Derry Girls mural, Gerry). The trip was a great introduction to this lovely country and I would not hesitate to use them again should we return.

June 2024 • My Ireland Tour Package
For anyone who is a first-time traveler to Ireland, there is no better option that My Ireland Tour. The itinerary was nearly perfect, allowing us to visit more sites and see more of Ireland than we ever possibly could have on our own. The smaller size of the tour group offered a more intimate experience and inspired friendly connections with our fellow travelers, which was amazing for those of us who are more introverted. Our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful, connecting us with history, culture and experiences that we wouldn't have learned otherwise. From booking the trip to effective communication leading up to our visit to a wholly pleasing travel experience, I have absolutely nothing but positive things to say about My Ireland Tour. They went above and beyond every step of the way!

The tour was very organized and structured to allow us to see as much of Ireland as possible during our stay. We had the Castle tour and it did not disappoint. Each place we stayed was so beautiful! The food was great! Our tour guide Ben Sullivan was the best! He knew so much history, trivia and entertained us with song along the way! He kept the group of 24 on track as much as possible and rounded us up when we were lost. This tour is worth the money! Beag me arash! (I’ll be back!)
Lori Hunt

Can not recommend this tour company more! Amazing value for the price with most meals included; great sights and activities; seemless organization from airport pickup to airport drop off. If you happen to get Harry as your tour guide/driver, then you really struck GOLD!Book it…you won’t be sorry!

June 2024 • Deluxe Castles Tour
I recently took my 88-year-old mother on the My Ireland Tour Deluxe Irish Castles Tour (April 28 - May 7, 2024), and it was a truly wonderful experience. This was my first time on a bus tour, and it exceeded all expectations. The tour was incredibly well-organized, the bus was spacious and comfortable, and we made great new friends along the way. I was initially concerned about my mother making the trip, but our tour guide, John Dennany, was absolutely amazing. He was incredibly kind, considerate, and always went the extra mile to ensure everyone’s comfort. A true Irish gentleman - John even took my mom to tea when she couldn't join a longer walk and helped her up the hill to see The Rock of Cashel - which ended up being her favorite site. John's great sense of humor and fun personality truly made the trip the best it could be, keeping everyone entertained and engaged throughout. His extensive knowledge of Irish history also made the tour exceptional. Highlights included the stunning Cliffs of Moher, the romantic Kylemore Abbey, and there was even a delightful surprise at Lough Eske Castle. We had (mostly) beautiful sunny weather and the drives through miles of gorgeous green scenery were simply breathtaking. So much beauty in one country was unforgettable. The final nights at the incredible K-Club Hotel were a perfect conclusion to the trip. The hotel's stunning grounds and luxurious accommodations, along with its beautiful golf course, added an extra layer of magic. This trip was an absolute joy and a fabulous memory of a perfect mother-daughter adventure. Everything from the accommodations to the food was top-notch. My Ireland Tour provided an unforgettable experience, and I highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to explore the beauty of Ireland in comfort and style.

June 2024 • Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour
My husband and I did the 14 day Ireland and Scotland Tour. Our tour Director was Damien McKenna who was 5 star awesome! Damien has an amazing depth of knowledge of the culture, history, geography, geology, politics which he shared every day. His depth of experience, relationships with Irish/Scottish people along the way provided extra value. He got us to the Blarney site early before the cruise ships, so we waited 10 minutes not 90. He suggested interesting restaurants and knew what to avoid, what wasted time. At several sites, he suggested the most time efficient way to see it. He is a kind, thoughtful person and made me feel comfortable.

I can't say enough good things about the Deluxe Irish Castle Tour. It was so well organized. Our tour guide, Garey G. was professional, timely, and very knowledgeable. The bus was clean and comfortable and the sounds system were pleasant. The accommodations were superb and the food was excellent. All the destinations were interesting and well-timed. The daily schedule was full and while I wish there had been a bit more downtime, I don't see how they could have planned it any better. Leading up to the trip, all of my emails were answered in a timely matter with the appropriate answers. It was truly memorable and I'm already planning my next tour with them!

What a great Scotland and Ireland trip with our driver/guide, the legendary Paddy. He was very knowlegable about the history and sites of Ireland and Scotland. The trip was very comfortable and a 5 star trip. We had a great group of people on our trip that would not let me forget it was my 70 birthday which we spent a Killarney Brewery....Great tour, great driver and would highly recommend MyIreland to everybody looking for a trip to Ireland and Scotland.

31 May 2024 • Deluxe Castles Tour
Just back from My Ireland Tour's 'Deluxe Irish Castles' 10-day tour. The tour was excellent! Our guide, Sean, was so charming and humorous, passionate about sharing his knowledge of Irish history as well as current life, and extremely professional and efficient in managing all details and safety. He effortlessly brought us all together as a family of travellers. The hotels we stayed at were each unique and top-notch in terms of comfort, service and meals. An organized bus tour typically means being on the go every day. My Ireland Tours handled this better than many companies, as we were booked for two nights in every hotel (other than the first night) and our daily starting time was a reasonable 9:00. We were generally back to our hotel by 5:00 and had time to relax before dinner at 6:30. Because of the unique locations of our hotels, we were usually not in walking distance of a village, but the grounds were beautiful and wonderful to explore.

So glad we booked our tour of Ireland and Scotland through My Ireland tour. We got to see so many of the iconic landmarks you hear about but also special places that you never knew existed. On top of that our guide Paddy O'Farrell talked about the history, lore and spirit of these beautiful lands which gave a perspective that was priceless. Truly an amazing experience

From the very start of our planning, the staff at My Ireland Tour (Catriona) helped us shape an Ireland experience that our family will always cherish. The flexibility in adapting to our changing needs truly showed their commitment to ensuring our 8 days were going to be nothing but the best. From our pick-up at the airport to final dinner at The Merry Ploughboy Pub exceeded any of our pre-conceived expectations. The guide, David was very knowledgeable of all the sites we visited and most of all adaptable to our on-going changes along the way. Hotels which were booked were outstanding both in quality of service and Accommodations. Their 5 Star rating is more the justified and well earned.

Just returned from the Iconic Scotland and Ireland Tour. Truly a remarkable and beautiful tour. I thoroughly enjoyed every single day! All the sites, historical cities, tours,etc. were beyond my expectations in every way. My fellow tour group friends were so great and everyone got along so well, an added plus! Hotels were great, comfortable with most excellent food. John, our Tour Guide took extra effort to ensure we had historical background on each site and even stopped at some extra fun and beautiful sites along our way. Not only did John go above and beyond to make sure our tour group enjoyed every day but he was also incredibly funny and witty. He had all of us laughing every day. Just a great guy and tour guide! Thanks for the most beautiful scenery/sites kind people, and expansive tour. I will always remember this tour and will hold the many lovely memories in my heart!

My husband a I would absolutely recommend this tour to everyone!! Our tour Guide Harry Fisher was by far the best tour guide we have had in my many tours! He was engaging, he pointed out things along our tour that we would not have seen. He taught us about Irish history, politics, the religion and sports of the country. It was not only a tour but also an education. The many places we saw were absolutely stunning. He always greeted us with a smile and show ya doing? We could not have asked for a better or more knowledge guide. Thank you Harry for making our vacation the most memorable ever!! If you want a worry free and packed vacation tour, we would highly recommend MyIrelandTours and ask for Harry!!

19 May 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
What an amazing trip we had! We did the 10 day iconic scenes of Ireland tour and I have to say, as a first time traveler to Ireland, choosing this tour was the best way to see such a beautiful country. Our tour guide Tom was the best! His knowledge of the areas and his humor made the trip unforgettable. The coach was very comfortable so the days we spent a little more time on the bus weren’t bad at all. One of the things I loved most was how this tour supports each areas local economy. We stopped at the major tourist destinations of course, but also at many small businesses along the way. Being able to support local artists and businesses is important to me, and getting to do this on the tour was great. All of our hotels were beautiful and the food was delicious. Breakfast was a buffet with choices for every palate and dinners were well thought out, always with a vegetarian dish for those who wanted. Each dinner was a three course meal and we never left hungry! Tom was there if we had any issues and the minor one we had, he took care of right away with the hotel management. This tour also was great about making sure any food allergies and sensitivities are addressed before hand. One person in our group had a food sensitivity and never once did she feel that she didn’t have options for her meals. The level of care we received was above and beyond what you would expect. Our luggage was put on and off the coach by the staff and Tom, and then brought to our rooms when we got to each new hotel. The little details are not overlooked! I highly recommend traveling with My Ireland Tour!

My husband and I just returned from the 10 day Deluxe Castle tour last week. This was our first bus tour so we weren't really sure what to expect, I can honestly say it was AMAZING!! The hotels were beautiful, all the stops we made (which we didn't have to drive to), the breathtaking scenery, and to top it off the BEST tour guide...Eamonn Broderick! His knowledge of Irish history was incredible, his light and fun attitude, his singing and jokes kept us engaged during the drive. It was like he was part of the tour group, not just our guide. Thank you to Shannon as well for making the booking process so easy and keeping us well informed leading up to the trip. We would definitely recommend My Ireland Tours , and maybe someday we will be back again

02 May 2024 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
This tour was everything that we had hoped for, but then much more! From the moment we were picked up at the Dublin airport to our drop off 10 days later, our driver Colm was professional, personable, funny, knowledgeable, calm, and as he would say: la-de-da! The hotel accommodations were excellent and the included meals (breakfast & dinner) were delicious. We enjoyed an authentic Irish pub lunch of fish n chips one day as well as a home cooked meal at a local farmhouse. The admission to all the sites that you visit(Blarney Castle, Guiness, Kylemore Abbey, Christchurch, EPIC, Cliffs or Moher, etc) are included. And there was plenty of stops to enjoy the beautiful Irish countryside! What we especially appreciated was the size of the group (26 people), allowing you to get to know and make friends with your fellow travelers. We had never been on a tour and chose this tour based on previous reviews so I hope this review helps you in making a decision too. I've been telling everyone at home about My amazing Ireland Tour!

The My Ireland Tour was such a great way to see a variety of places around Ireland and have everything taken care of for you. I thought it was well worth the money with hotel costs, admission costs, breakfast and dinner each day all included. John was an incredible guide and driver. As someone who was travelling solo, I felt so comfortable and safe the whole time. Everyone looked out for one another and I walked away with 20 new friends by the end of it. If you are thinking of going to Ireland, I highly recommend it. Thank you for an incredible trip!

This was the vacation of a lifetime. This was our anniversary trip, and it honestly couldn't have been any better. Beautiful scenery, comfortable historic accommodations, amazing sites to visit and great food. We had the absolute best tour guide. Colm provided entertainment and education as he drove us through the Irish Countryside. History lessons, local color, and jokes that had the whole bus rolling with laughter. Highly recommend and would do over in a heartbeat.

We did a 14 day tour right around Ireland with 'My Ireland Tour' and absolutely loved it! We had a fantastic driver/guide, Brian Treanor who went out of his way to make every minute of our two weeks so enjoyable and easy. He took care of everything, including a doctor's appointment in Dublin - nothing was too much trouble. I would recommend this company unreservedly and especially Brian for making a great tour simply amazing.

My Ireland Tour was superb. We enjoyed a 10 day iconic tour led by our expert guide/driver Tony. He was so knowledgeable and had a terrific wit. The details and minutia were handled by Shannon so we spend all our time enjoying sights and learning about the areas we visited. No hotel check-in, no lines, no tickets, and no parking to deal with. I have traveled extensively but haven't been on a guided tour since the 70s and it was terrific. I'd highly recommend My Ireland Tour to handle your Irish journey.

My wife and I and 6 friends just returned from 10 day private tour with MyIreland and it was fabulous. Our van was very comfortable and spacious and equipped. We traveled over 1,400 miles from Dublin to Belfast and all the hotels were excellent they picked and central to many city activities. The tours planned went off with a hitch and our driver dropped us off and picked us up to avoid all the crowds. Our driver, Mick, was fantastic. He gave us background on all the history with many local stories about pubs and sites not in tours. He had a great sense of humor as well. My Ireland did an awesome job working with our group to make it a fantastic experience. I highly recommend them without hesitation.

My husband and I, along with our friends, spent about 9 days in Ireland on a custom tour with My Ireland Tour. We highly recommend them! We were able to work with the team to create our own agenda. They offered suggestions to us and were flexible in the process. We were able to tailor our trip for interests of everyone in our group. We planned this trip for a year and it did not disappoint. They booked us in beautiful hotels and our driver, Brian Kelly, was wonderful. He was timely, professional and attentive. He was able to show us things we would never have even thought of to ask for. Thank you for a wonderful trip!

I've waited years to visit Ireland, and because of this tour, it was well worth the wait. The 10 day Iconic Tour of Ireland was perfect! The food was fantastic, the many places we visited breathtaking, and Tony, our guide, a blessing. Tony McGooey is a wonder. His knowledge is extraordinary, his singing a bonus, and his kindness greatly appreciated. Barely home and already checking out other tours offered by My Ireland Tour.

Just returned from the Deluxe Castle tour - and DELUXE it was! One hotel nicer than the next (Eske was my favorite)! The food was amazing every night but dinner on the Pullman car from the real Orient Express..that was a once in a lifetime experience. Our tour guide was phenomenal- Paddy was entertaining and thoughtful, he went above and beyond. The group of 26 was aged from 8 years to early 70s, and everyone enjoyed the tour. This trip has significantly raised the bar for our future vacations to compare to, but I don't think any other vacation will beat it!

My wife and I recently returned from our 10 Day Deluxe Irish Castle tour and it was amazing and exhausting all at the same time. Our driver/tour guide Paddy Keenahan was very knowledgeable and a fantastic driver. The hotels, food and sites were everything we thought they would be. I highly recommend My Ireland Tours.

We recently returned from the 10 day Deluxe Castle tour to celebrate our daughter's 10th birthday. This trip was absolutely amazing! Our tour guide, Paddy, was wonderful and very informative. The accommodations and food were fantastic as well! We very much enjoyed all the sights and experiences we had during the trip. I cannot recommend My Ireland Tour enough! We only wish the trip had been longer so we could have spent more time exploring and learning all we could.

We did a small group 10 day Iconic Tour and it was amazing! I couldn't imagine planning it ourselves and then driving ourselves. This tour was worth every penny we spent on it. Our driver was fabulous, David provided a lot of history and information we wouldn't have learned anywhere else. He was very accommodating and we truly enjoyed having him as our guide, it was like he was part of the family by the end of the trip. The hotels were great, much nicer than anything we would book ourselves. I would highly recommend this tour company all the staff we worked with were great. It definitely maxmized what we were able to see in 10 days.

Great little tour with a fantastic guide. While the trip was a bit of a whirlwind, it provided the basic overview of some of Irelands must-see sites. Colm, our guide, was very kind, funny, and gave

A great way to see Ireland in 10 days. Great hotels with excellent location. The tour was excellently led by Tom Lavin, who was very informative, funny and corteous in all of his comments and wonderful stories. Will definately recommend My Ireland Tour.

We just returned from our 7 day castle tour and we absolutely loved it! There were 8 of our family travelling together and we were all so impressed with the great value of this tour..and we have to give a shout out to our driver/guide Brian Trainer who was absolutely exceptional!!He was a great driver, so funny and a wonderful narrator. I can't imagine we could ever find a better tour guide!

We just took the ten day tour with a great bunch. Our driver Tom was awsome.. he was very knowledgeable and accommodating, there was a day the quests wanted to do the Falconry at the hotel he brought us back and those that wanted to do that did it and those that didn't went to the crystal house.. We had a better time.. The bus was always clean and he was a great driver.. He even went out of his way to make us all feel welcomed everyday. I'd recommend this it was great and we saw so much.. Thanks Tom. Are we going to stop for ice cream?

This tour was a 12! The food was exceptional. The accommodations were all five-star excellent! The service at each historical sight was exquisite. The scenery and the people of Ireland were extraordinary! Exceptional. Excellent. Exquisite. Extraordinary. I think these four words just about sum up our whole experience on this tour. Oh, but I can't forget to mention our delightful, knowledgeable, and talented tour guide and driver, Tony. He regaled our little group with the history of Ireland's people along with captivating myths and stories. But I would certainly be remiss if I didn't mention Tony's lovely renditions of our favorite Irish songs. The trip wouldn't have been the same without him.

My Ireland Tour was fantastic! Our guide/driver George was so personable and knowledgeable, he made every day an adventure and a learning experience. And that was despite quite a few of us on the trip catching a nasty head cold, no fault of My Ireland Tours as aircrafts are no longer 'covid-clean' as they once were. George made sure that each one of us felt looked after and comfortable along the way. And the castles that we stayed in were breathtaking, each one better than the last with very accommodating staff and excellent 5-star dining at each. We are spoiled by the breakfasts, my husband now expects smoked salmon each morning! The bus was very comfortable and clean as George wiped it down each night to keep us all safe. His driving while sharing stories and facts about the sites was impressive and the stops along the way were beautiful, Kylemore Abbey and Blarney Castle and yummy Hazel Mountain Chocolate Factory and The Blind Piper Pub, just to name a few. From the booking process to value for our money, to the actual tour itself, we loved this tour so much that while traveling we learned they also cover Scotland and soon England (we hope) so we will be planning our next adventure to the UK with them again!

This company was absolutely incredible!!! I highly recommend! From the planning stages of our trip to Ireland, all the way through till the day we came home they were amazing. Every employee from My Ireland Tour was professional, knowledgeable, and exactly what we were looking for in a private tour company. To start, I must have called and emailed with Eric no less than 45X before we finalized our itinerary. He was so nice and always answered my questions fully, and with ease. He never seemed frustrated or bothered. Eric was so wonderful to work with and I trusted every decision he helped me make. When my group of 13 people arrived in Ireland, we were greeted by two of the nicest individuals, who happened to also be our drivers (Keith and Brian). Brian departed our group after day one, but Keith stayed on for the remainder of the trip, and he was fabulous!! He knew so much about the history of Ireland, and he was also up to date on current events – driving around the country was full of fun history and storytelling. Keith knew exactly how to keep you interested and engaged – the perfect tour guide. Additionally, both Keith and Brian seemed to be very safe drivers, I felt comfortable with their driving even on some of the narrowest roads. They kept us on time so that we did not miss anything that we wanted to see, and they made sure that we arrived at popular destinations before the crowds did and avoided long wait times. I could go on and on about the amazing experience we had. Every person in our group was pleased. I would definitely go back to Ireland, and I would 100% go through My Ireland Tour to book it.

I went on the 6 day iconic scenes tour last week (April 15-21 2023). It was a beautiful and well-organized trip! Tom was absolutely fantastic, and everyone on the trip loved him! I have been to Ireland a few times with different tour operators, but My Ireland Tour is definitely the best.

After friends had to cancel, I went solo on the group tour, but met up with my friend's relatives. Everyone in the group was so welcoming and friendly and I always felt safe. The tour itself was amazing and the weather cooperated most of the time! My tour guide and driver, Tom, was the best tour guide I've ever had. Knowledgeable about the sites, the history and current events. Funny and entertaining, and a safe driver. I would highly recommend touring with My Ireland Tours.

Our Tour Guide driver Patrick was so good, friendly, helpful in every way, and very knowledgeable of the area and history. Everything was designed to insure we had a stress free, memorable week.

As a seasoned traveler, I can honestly say that 'My Ireland Tour' is the BEST tour I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing. The itinerary was thorough and thoughtfully prepared, but the commentary, personalization and side excursions presented by our guide made this tour exceptional. Our guide, Tom, was both knowledgeable about Ireland's history, each region's unique qualities, and the global Ireland of today. Tom was the 'jewel in the crown' and took each new encounter to a new level. Even with an injury sustain before the trip, he was patient and caring, and made sure I enjoyed each opportunity at my own pace. Although travelling alone, at the end of the tour I felt as though I was with my family. Shared meals, laughter and experiences made this my most memorable trip abroad. Well done 'My Ireland Tour'! I will see you again.

My husband and I loved our trip to Scotland and Ireland with My Ireland Tour. Our driver/guide was fantastic! He was knowledgeable about the history of the area and pointed out interesting places along the drive. The food was amazing. Our hotels were all very nice. This tour allowed us to see many places in Scotland and Ireland in the 2 weeks. I felt the pace was good. There was a nice mix of time with the group and time on our own. I appreciated being able to go on a big trip and not have to plan all of the little details. We could not have asked for a better trip. We highly recommend My Ireland Tour and would go on another trip with them in the future!

The personal service can't be beat. From start to finish, we 6 had a phenomenal trip! Kristel arranged every detail from booking excellent hotel rooms and delicious meals to getting a superb driver/guide ( David O'Neill ). I traveled to Ireland a few years ago with 5 girlfriends - we drove ourselves, and believe me - this trip was so much more relaxing and stress free - plus we didn't waste time getting lost - so got to see and experience much more. We LOVED everything about our trip except the heavy comforters in ALL the hotels. We decided we would all bring our own top sheets next time - so problem solved!

We chose My Ireland Tours after reading the positive reviews and the amazing price and we weren't disappointed. From the time we booked and all communication following, their service was exceptional. Then it was time for our tour…We stayed in fabulous hotels and castles, ate delicious food and most of all, visited amazing places. All this was possible due to the expert driving and knowledge of our guide Paddy, he made our trip more interesting with all the information he shared and his ability to drive and park in narrow streets, which at times seemed impossible. Truly the trip of a lifetime. Thank you Paddy and all the My Ireland Tour team.

We were on the 10 day Ireland tour in September. First time we had taken a bus tour. It was a great experience. Geary, our driver and guide was both knowledgeable and full of Irish wit. Even though we had been to Ireland twice before he was able to add insight into all the places we went. All the hotels were quite exceptional and the food too. Everything went on as planned with no hitches. Our fellow travelers were pleasant and fun. Would highly recommend MyIreland tours for anyone wanting a reasonably priced comprehensive tour of Ireland. Five stars!

Well after two cancellations I finally managed to go to Northern Ireland with My Ireland Tours and what a gorgeous tour of Northern Ireland it was! Our driver, David Breen, was informative and very funny and the hotels were superb, especially the Westville Hotel in Enniskillen, and all the food included everywhere was excellent. I thoroughly recommend My Ireland Tours!

I was so impressed with Sean and the tour that I am planning another trip in 2024 with my two daughters!!

The hotels were beyond what I would have imagined and the food was to die for. I would go again in a heart beat, because it was so worth the price. Best Ive ever been on, trip of a lifetime. Thank you My Ireland Tours and Paddy!!

12 July 2022 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
We've just returned from our 10 Day IconicScenes of Ireland Tour and it was fabulous ! Really the trip of a lifetime! The tour bus was clean, modern and comfortable with plenty of room to relax. Our driver/guide Brian was amazing! He was everything you'd want your guide to be. He was funny and kind ( always had a joke to tell!) he was always checking to make sure that we were having fun. Brian was so knowledgeable about the history of Ireland and he was wonderful at explaining various wars and histories so that we could all understand. He seemed to know so much about his country's past and explained it in an interesting way. I can't say enough nice things about Brian! The hotels we stayed in were lovely. Clean and comfortable and very attractive. Most did not have air conditioning, no trouble, we just asked for a fan. Bring your own hair conditioner though, it's not provided. Meals were very good, especially breakfast! Breakfast was a large buffet with many choices. Something for everyone! Dinner was a special menu for the group. Generally 3 choices for appetizer and 3 choices for dinner. yummy desserts too! We were so lucky to have a wonderful group of people on our tour! Most meals you eat together at tables with your tourmates. Several evenings we all went out to various pubs to hear live traditional Irish Music! As for Ireland, words dont do it justice! Its incredibly beautiful and the people couldnt be more friendly! We loved every stop we made! Kylemore Abbey was stunning, Blarney Castle was amazing, The Cliffs of Moher were awesome. Lots of walking and climbing, good shoes are a must! If it sounds like its too good to be true… it was all that! Not one stop wasnt great. Even things that we weren't necessarily looking forward too were wonderful! The sheepdog herding demonstration was an unexpected highlight! I don't think you could do this tour and not enjoy it! After we sadlysaid goodbye to our new friends, we extended our trip into Northern Ireland through My Ireland Tour. We had another wonderful driver/ guide named Simon who took the three of us on a three day tour to the north. This was a more casual trip as it was just us and we could stop wherever we liked. Simon talked to us about our interests, castles and ruins for my sister and I, Game of Thrones locations for my daughter. He was amazing at knowing all the little out of the way stops and amazing photo opportunities! Every day he brought us water bottles and diet coke for my sister who's addicted! Lol His BMW suv was spotless and comfy. He made us feel safe and entertained ! I highly reccomend Simon as a personal driver! On our way to Belfast, we took a ferry through the Mountains of Mourne, drove through lovely little towns and beautiful countrysides making stops along the way. We saw the Titanic Museum in Belfast, then spent the evening walking around Belfast having dinner and found some more live Irish music! Next we went to Giants Causeway and Carrick-a-Reed rope bridge! Stunning sights and so much fun! We spent the night in Derry/ Londonderry. The next day we took an amazing walking tour with a lovely man named Ronan, again set up through My Ireland Tour. Ronan was in a unique position to teach us the history of the walled city. Being a Buddhist, he has an ability to see both sides of the conflict or Troubles as they're known. It was amazing to walk along these walls that are hundreds of years old and hear of the many battles fought throughout the history of Ireland! Definitely a highlight for us. I don't think that I could say enough wonderful things about our tour! We had an amazing trip and met many wonderful people! We all agree that we would highly recommend My Ireland Tour to help you plan your dream trip to the most beautiful and friendliest country I've ever seen! You won't be sorry!

I took my first Solo trip to Ireland. Booked the 14 days Iconic and it was incredible. The accommodations where great, staff friendly. Our tour guide John was one of a kind. His passion and love for Ireland clearly showed. He kept us awake by singing songs and telling stories. He was attentive and made everyone feel special. Gave us great tips for our free time, which included Restaurants, shopping, farmers markets and pubs. Made lifelong friends. Would love to do a Scotland tour with them.

The trip to Ireland was for my mom's 65th birthday, and while she's always dreamed of visiting, we had no idea how unique our experience would be. We could not have asked for a better guide than Tony. Aside from the gorgeous landscapes, breathtaking hotels, and well-thought-out itinerary, Tony absolutely made the trip one we will cherish forever. His stories, songs, and genuine care for the country he came from will ensure we'll be back for years to come. We are very blessed to have had this adventure.

I just returned from the 10-day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour and can say without exception that it was the best guided tour I have ever taken. Tour guide/bus driver Tony McGoey was kind, considerate, and full of interesting facts about everything we saw. The hotels were very good, the food was excellent, and the group on the tour was very simpatico. For those people afraid that it will be just a bunch of old fogies, nothing could be further from the truth. I am 72 and only a few people were older than I. Half of the group of 25 was retired but there were several folks under 40 and everyone got along well together. I only regret that I did not find this tour company earlier. If you plan to go to Ireland on an organized tour, I highly recommend My Ireland Tours.

We would definitely do it again!! Fabulous,

The long & short of it is that My Ireland Tour is top-notch. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our tour guide, Mr. Tony McGoey is very knowledgeable and also threw in some humor as he drove us around, making our time on the bus enjoyable. The 10 Day Iconic Tour was amazing, from the itinerary to the food to the hotels, and everything in between. Honestly, I can't think of anything bad to say. Thank you, My Ireland staff, for providing us w/ such an awesome experience!

Our trip to Ireland using My Ireland Tours was amazing! We had never been overseas before and weren't sure how to go about planning a trip. I came across their sight and upon seeing the itinerary for the 10 day tour and the reviews from previous customers it sold me on this trip. They were very good about keeping us up to date on COVID changes and were very responsive to our emails answering any questions we had. Not only did we have an amazing time in Ireland on this tour but our tour guide, Tony, was wonderful! He was full of Irish knowledge, past and present, he told the best jokes and he even sang us some Irish songs! He has the voice of an angel. I will 100% recommend this tour company to anyone wanting to vacation in Ireland.

We traveled to Ireland in September and it was and will always be a trip to remember. My little family group of 4 were escorted to our family's native townland in Tyrone by our wonderful driver/guide, Maurice. Our accommodations were wonderful and located within walking distance of other local sites. It was certainly a busy and full week of seeing the usual sites a well as meeting locales who may or may not be relatives. I am hoping to make a return visit to continue my research for long lost family and to visit counties that were not in our itinerary this time around. A special thank you to Kristel for making all the arrangements to meet our needs.

Oct. 3 2019 was the tour date of Ancient Ireland-Dingle version. I cannot say enough about this tour. To start....our driver Ben O'sullivan was the best. His knowledge of Ireland impeccable as was his singing. Always enjoyed a song or two. He is personable and very accommodating. (Thank you Ben). The tour itself was beautiful. The accommodations breathtaking. We had a small group of 7 which allowed us to become friends fast, and visited places not big-bus friendly. Olive at the farmhouse was so friendly and inviting. All our meals were top notch and even enjoyed a nitecap at a local pub. Over all I would, and have recommended this tour.

Our private 9-day tour for 9 cousins and cousins-in-law delivered everything we'd hoped for – and a whole lot more. We did much research before deciding which tour company we'd work with, and it's hard to imagine having made a better choice than My Ireland Tours. Our rep, Martina Hegarty, was a pleasure to work with, developing an itinerary with us that satisfied our (quite lengthy!) wish lists, and patiently answering endless questions during the almost two-year run-up to the trip. (I'm also happy to report that the price My Ireland Tours quoted when we finalized the itinerary was exactly what we paid -- no hidden charges or nasty surprises.) It's also hard to imagine having a better driver-guide than warm, accommodating, funny, exceedingly knowledgeable Ben O'Sullivan. He was a wonderful storyteller — and an amazing singer (his beautiful voice brought tears to my eyes) — and each day his historical tidbits, tales of everyday life, songs, jokes and Irish lore enhanced whatever we were seeing or doing. He really made the trip for us. The accommodations My Ireland Tours booked were by and large terrific. The city hotels were superbly located, and the two places we stayed in the countryside enchanted us: Glasha Farmhouse (its host, Olive, is a charmer, and the pub down the road is not to be missed) and Ballynahinch Castle (such a lovely spot that we adjusted the next morning's itinerary to allow us to stay there right up until checkout). A wonderful, unforgettable trip.

We took a tour of Northern Ireland, and it was wonderful! Harry (the hat) our tour guide and bus driver was very good. He was knowledgeable, had a great sense of humor, and was totally unflappable. The tour guide we had in Derry (Ronan) was also very good during our walking tour. The hotels were great - very nice rooms and meals. Although, the menu offerings at each hotel were either the same or very similar so we were definitely ready for something else by the end of the tour. We will definitely utilize this tour company again!

I just returned to Idaho from the 15-day Iconic Scenes tour. I cannot praise this tour enough! It was everything I had hoped it would be and more. Our driver-guide in the north was Colm D who was very knowledgeable and a great driver. He made sure that the fridge was full of water and treats available for the passengers. I really enjoyed his singing. Our driver in the Republic was Colm M. Along with great driving, he had a tremendous knowledge of Irish history. He was hands down the best guide I have ever had on an escorted tour, truly an amazing man. The tour itself was well laid out; the hotels and food were excellent. With the admissions to most sites and the addition of local guides, I don't know what else they could have changed to improve the tour. Definitely a 5-star tour. I won't hesitate to take another tour from this company. On a personal note, I loved getting to know the land of my great, great grandparents. I fell in love with Ireland and its people. Thank you for a fantastic experience.

I'm happy to recommend the great team at My Ireland Tour. Our 8 day tour of Southern Ireland was delightful. Our guide/driver, Ben O'Sullivan, was the perfect host. His love and knowledge of his country shone through. The accommodations, from hotel to castle to guest house and farm B&B were all excellent. I'd heard that the food in Ireland would be great and it was. Even the weather put it's best foot forward for our visit.

Because of his humor, knowledge and care, we came away with such wonderful memories of Ireland. I highly recommend this tour to anyone. We were with a group of 24 other people and met many new friends during the tour. Excellent well organized tours. The food and accommodations were also very good.

A complete Ireland tour at a reasonable price. Competent, professional, well organized driver who truly knows Ireland (ask for Tony - he's the best), comfortable buses, excellent accommodations, good meals, thorough coverage of the special places in Ireland. Tours were interesting, thorough, and conducted at a good pace. Good variety of points of interest with some free time thrown in to allow for a more personalized experience. This tour is conducted in such a way that a single traveler would feel totally at ease and safe.

16 October 2019 • Ancient Ireland Tour
All in all I had a good time, with caveats noted below. The staff of My Ireland Tour were always helpful, whether I had questions about a particular tour or needed to add or change a reservation. There were 7 people on my tour, which was Ancient Ireland - Dingle version. There was a married couple, 2 friend-twosomes, and me. I had thought I might feel like a 5th wheel, but never did - everyone was friendly and welcoming. And knew enough to stay away from politics, except once... Ben O'Sullivan, our driver, had a great disposition and was fun to be with. He'd belt out songs, whether we wanted him to, or not, and told stories of The Famine. He never complained about having to carry very heavy, over-packed suitcases. We stayed at 2 particularly wonderful places - the first was Ballynahinch Castle in Galway, and the second was Heaton's Guesthouse in Dingle. The grounds of the first were spectacular, as was the service and food. The owners of the second were particularly gracious and served a wonderful breakfast, as well. Fortunately, we stayed at each for two nights. There were things I would change. Many stops were eye-rollingly touristy, including one with a sign outside saying, “Hold a baby lamb.' For 3 Euros. Several highlighted towns we stopped at, including Galway, were built around tourism, with nearly every store catering to tourists (or students.). So, no fine Irish linens to send home, wonderful bookstores to browse though, etc. Had I known ahead of time how touristy it would be, I might have made reservations to see areas on my own once the tour ended. I would like to have learned more about the history of places we saw, to have a sense of who lived there, where the marauders were, which Irish writers lived nearby or wrote about It.

Me and my wife Kelly went on the 10 Day Deluxe Castle Tour in September 2019. This tour was amazing. It all started with Martina booking everything for us in 2018. We didnt have not one issue. Our tour guide Colm Clarke was absolutely amazing. He made the tour extremely enjoyable. All the hotels were very nice and the staff at each of those hotels were great. All the people on the tour were great as well. We got to see so many different things. This tour was defintely worth the money. We do plan on going back.

I have been to Ireland ten times on vacation, but never used a tour service, howevert I will from now on. Perfect 10 for MyIremandTour and a 10+ our driver Brendan. Our group picked the locales to visit Galway, Donegal, and finished in Doolin, County Clare, but MyIrelandTour and Brendan handled all the details. The hotels, restaruants, and the frequent pub stops, all seemed to know Brendan and we were treated first class. MyIrelandTour/Brendan would make recommenation on activites and meals, they were totally flexible if our group decided to change up plans (i.e. breakfast at a pub with Ireland-Japan rugby viewing). No pressure, they were there to do what we wanted, and just take the hassle out of it. As far as knowledge of Irish history and sites, Brendan was off the charts, forgetting more than we'll have know. All done with a keen sense of humor, and ultimately he became a true friend which we hope to see again. Thanks for the memories Brendan.

Nice trip. Our driver Mark was great. The only problem was he was supposed to meet us at 9:00 am at Dublin airport and by 9:30 he was still not there. I was beyond worried that I was stranded in Ireland. You need to fix that.

We were a group of 9 and had an amazing time. Our tour guide was Brendan McEvoy who started has our guide and became our friend. A true Irishman who knew the history well and with a thorough knowledge of the landscape, what was and what is to be.

We did a LOT of homework of tours of Ireland in late 2018 before landing on My Ireland Tour for our visit in September 2019. This choice was based on the duration, highlights, included meals, cost and previous TripAdvisor reviews. Two friends joined us on our 15 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour (South & North) tour, and we all agreed it far exceeded our high expectations. Our guides, especially “don't even jokingly call me Gollum' Colm, were encyclopedically knowledgeable, hugely entertaining and very accommodating of specific requests. The hotels and meals were superb, especially the final night at the Portmarnock Hotel & Golf Links. Free time was usually just what we needed. We highly recommend this company, and especially this double-tour.

We had an amazing time on our recent 10 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. Our driver Tony was professional, fun and very knowledgeable, sharing history, fun facts, jokes and songs while we enjoyed a relaxing ride from place to place. We were fortunate to have beautiful sunny days while out on the coast and out of the entire tour only 1 day of rain. Everything went so smooth from the very first day I contacted My Ireland Tour, and I would recommend them to anyone looking for an affordable, relaxing way to take in Ireland. We hope to go back to see more in the future and would certainly look to My Ireland Tour to book that trip!

Our personalised Ireland Tour of 7 adults with My Ireland Tour was simply outstanding. We started the process of selecting a local agent 12 months prior to the trip. MIT(My Ireland Tour) came back with the best and cost effective itinerary. An itinerary that incorporates some of our ‘wishes' too. This back office communication with Eric O'Gorman over the length of 12 months was fabulous. We got response within the day mostly. The speed by which Eric and his team works simple amazes me. He made us feel special! Payments online went through without a problem. MIT has got the back office infrastructure well developed and thought through! 10 days prior to the tour Shannon comes up with the finalised itinerary giving contact details of our guide/driver David O'Neill. On the tour of 12 days, comfortably seated in a coach, we covered so much beauty, culture and history. David is like a talking history book! So knowledgeable about history n Irish folklore. No need for any Goggle references! His stories were entertaining. Never knew history could be so enjoyable! (I hated history in school!). Manoeuvring around some of the village roads n bends, David was patient and safe. The best guide/driver we have had in our travels. So ... leaving Ireland with a heavy heart! Besides the beauty Ireland has to offer, the MIT team made our experience one that would take us back to Ireland! With MIT of course. A standard ovation for Eric, Shannon, David and the rest of the MIT!

I enjoyed everything about the 10 Day Iconic Ireland tour. Our driver Oisin was amazing; great sense of humor, safe driver, and able to provide alternative entertainment due to weather! The hotels, the food, the itinerary, all of it was well thought out. We had a great group of travelers and all of the sites were more beautiful than photos can depict. If you want to see Ireland, this is the group you want to choose.

Our experience with My Ireland Tour was fantastic. The hub and spoke nature of the tour minimized hotel hopping, yet allowed us to see all the sights of Dublin, Glendolough, Galway, the ring of Kerry, Cliffs of Moher, Limerick, Kilarney , Blarney caste etc. The natural beauty was stunning, the food was terrific, the pubs scene and music were authentic, but the best part was our driver Liam. He drove expertly, sang beautifully, and taught us a thing or two about historical and contemporary Ireland. Highly recommended.

07 September 2019 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
How many good things can I say about My Irish Tours. My answer is not enough. Let's start with the tour (Ours was the 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland option): The one phrase description that comes to mind is 'well paced'. My spouse and I are past the time when we choose to wake up at dawn and keep traveling til dusk in order to see as much as possible during a day. Our tour day was typically 9 to 6. Part of that is spent resting (and viewing the wonderful countryside) while being driven to another interesting area or place. We saw and experienced plenty of wonderful and interesting areas each day, had good guides for the historical areas, and sufficient time to explore on our own. Accommodations and travel: I can find no fault with the accommodations that were arranged for us. We usually stayed in a hotel for two days while exploring nearby areas. It's surprisingly feels much less hectic than tours where it's a different hotel most days. They were all comfortable, clean, and restful, with pleasant and accommodating staff members. And for others who travel while keeping tabs on work or home, we experienced reliable wi fi at each hotel. The bus used to transport us around Ireland was comfortable, clean, and roomy. A bonus was usb charging stations at each seat, and the bus provided wi fi. People: Two words...just wonderful. Our driver/guide Tony was and is fantastic. Personable, knowledgeable, capable, organized, helpful, entertaining. He seems to have personal contacts at each hotel and attraction. He shared history, background, and anecdotes during our travels. I really want to clone him for our next trip. Martina (at the office) was wonderful at helping us keep track of our trip planning, providing itinerary updates (no major changes) and insights, packing advice (bring a water resistant windbreaker with a hood), and all other administrivia.

We are currently in the middle of our 15-day Ireland tour. Everything about the trip thus far has been wonderful, from the hotels to the food to the breathtaking beauty of this Country. Our guide Oisin has given us a true feel for what life in Ireland is about. Thank you to MIT for this amazing trip! If I had one complaint it would be that there is not nearly enough time to experience all that the sites have to offer. I guess we'll need another 2 weeks!

My Ireland Tour was an amazing company to travel with! All of the logistics were handled well, all of the accommodations were amazing, all of the other tour members were great company, George was fantastic, making our trip a lifetime worth of memories. We're already planning on how to return to this wonderful country and we will 100% be using My Ireland Tour to do so. Thank you so much for a wonderful 25th anniversary celebration!

We recently returned from the 7 Day Castles & Backroads Tour and I could not be happier with My Ireland Tour. It was my first time out of the states so I didn't really know what to expect. From the moment our driver/guide Brendan picked us up at the airport, he shared his infinite knowledge of the culture, history and beauty of Ireland. He handled any little issues that arose with ease and a sense of humor. I loved the places we visited and stayed throughout our tour. Our group was diverse with people from all over the world. I made at least one friend I will likely travel with in the future. I would highly recommend this company for anyone considering a visit. I definitely left a piece of my heart in Ireland and cannot wait to return. Thank you!

The My Ireland Tour team helped us coordinate a schedule to cover a good bit of the country in a relatively short period of time. The accommodations were all delightful with a good variety of locations. We did a private tour with Peter and he was fantastic! Peter really made the trip; he went above and beyond answering our questions, adding in some out-of-the-way stops and working hard to ensure we had a great experience. I highly recommend My Ireland Tour and appreciated the team's help to create a memorable trip for our family!

My husband and I did the Castles and Backroads Tour for his 30th Birthday and it was an amazing trip! Garey was our driver/guide and he was full of great information and helpful tips. We hit all the top must-see sights in Ireland, and staying in Castle Hotels was fantastic! The tour was extremely well organized, whenever we entered an attraction the tickets were ready to go and there were no lines to wait in. The bus had USB chargers and wifi, so that was greatly appreciated. I would definitely recommend My Ireland Tour!

I highly recommend My Ireland Tours! This was a trip of a lifetime for my sister, daughter, and I. I had researched travel companies and went with My Ireland tours based on reviews. I was not disappointed! Our group was a lot if fun and our driver/ guide was exceptional! Tom Lavin gave us the inside history of this wonderful place. The castles and manor homes we stayed at were first class and food was wonderful. This tour will not disappoint. My sister Gail Shourds did a great job of reviewing this tour and I agree wholly with her. It was the trip of a lifetime!

16 August 2019 • 6 Day Iconic Scenes
My husband and I just returned from Ireland and our wonderful 6 day iconic Ireland tour. We had never taken a tour of this length before and it was a pleasure to have all arranged for us. Liam Finnegan was our very knowledgeable and humorous guide and driver. He covered everything from history, to education, to language, myth and folklore, house construction to the meaning of place names etc while driving! He sang to us. We had a few long days and still he was always energetic and in good spirits. His driving was impeccable and his story telling was fascinating and engaging.We left the tour with an abiding love of Ireland and the Irish people and a deeper understanding of its history and present day issues. We stayed at the Clayton Hotel Burlington in Dublin which was very good and the Clayton Limerick which was good. Liam picked us up at the airport and dropped us to our hotel at the end of the tour which was most appreciated. I highly recommend My Ireland's 6 day iconic tour, we saw a lot, did a lot,and had fun and were also very fortunate to have great weather!

15 August 2019 • Deluxe Castles Tour
After our mother passed away my sister and I put aside some inheritance money for two trips. Last summer we took one of my sons to Washington DC and this year we took one of her daughters with us on a tour of Ireland. We went on the Deluxe Castle Tour from August 4-13th. We were by far the luckiest to get Tom Lavin as our driver and guide for the tour. We stayed in fantastic Castle/ manor house hotels, saw incredible sites, did fantastic shopping and enjoyed every single minute. Tom is incredibly knowledgeable about people, politics, places and history. One of my fondest memories is sitting in the coach watching fantastic scenery go by while he was either telling a story, filling us in on the background or history of where we were going or what we were seeing or we were listening to wonderful Irish music that he played for us. He made sure we were on time for everything and kept us on schedule yet made time to be most accommodating to everybody and he was always making sure that we were happy with where we were staying, with the service we were receiving and he had a fantastic sense of humor. I can't tell you how many wonderful things we saw but it was a once-in-a-lifetime trip and having breakfast, dinner and entrance fees already included made things so easy. Our group was wonderful and I can truly say that it was like being on vacation with a bunch of friends rather than a driver and a tour group. I want to thank Tom profusely for making us all feel like family and showing us all such a spectacular time. If you want a trip to remember forever this is definitely the one.

This was our first trip to Ireland, and also our first trip on a group tour. We could not have been more pleased. Our tour guide, Mark, was the best! He was mega competent, accommodating, entertaining, informed, and just an all-around awesome person with whom to tour Ireland. We saw so much of the Emerald Isle from Dublin to Galway City to Cork and many places in between. We did the 10-day Iconic Tour. Ireland was a super pleasant surprise for me, and this trip was very close to life changing. The people of Ireland were SO friendly and it felt so calm and wonderful there. Can't wait to return, and we would definitely travel with My Ireland Tour again. I rate them a SOLID 5 (on a scale of 1-5). Thank you for the opportunity to review this fine group!

Our tour guide Ben was an absolute joy. His love of Ireland and life in general made the trip a resounding success. The views of the countryside included discussions about his life and work over the years and his singing was the best. One word would trigger a song that was relevant to the area we were touring or the event we were discussing at the time. The countryside was beautiful, the tour bus and hotel accommodations were great and the people of Ireland were super nice. Ben is a hard worker and genuinely loves being around people. He is a great ambassador for the country and these tours.

We spent 10 glorious days in Ireland on a trip with My Ireland Tours. Our driver, Ger Murphy, was excellent! He was knowledgeable, funny, professional and really made the trip! All of the hotels that were booked were in great locations and were clean and comfortable. Ger took us on a few sites that were off the beaten path. He told us stories, worked in history, asked us our particular likes and interests and accommodated our needs perfectly! He handled all the vouchers - checked us in to the various museums, etc - without any problem. My husband and I feel so blessed to have taken our teenage children to Ireland to explore their heritage. I would use My Ireland Tours again without hesitation!

I just returned from Ireland this week after using My Ireland Tour. We had a large group and they did a great job coordinating everything and putting together an itinerary for us. Our guide, Kevin, was very helpful and was perfect for our group. He was very knowledgeable and was able to answer any questions we had and gave us valuable advice and suggestions. I would definitely recommend My Ireland Tour to anyone thinking of traveling to Ireland in the future.

I really enjoyed the variety of things we got to see on our iconic scenes of Ireland tour. From cliffs and castles to villages and big cities, we took in the beauty of Ireland at a relaxed pace. I loved that our driver recommended we make the hike up to a waterfall in Killarney National Park (even though it was pouring and we got soaked!). A fun memory! The Irish food was scrumptious, and the places where we stayed were very comfortable with the exception of no air conditioning at a few places. Also, I absolutely loved the show at the end of our tour where we experienced a wonderful meal along with terrific Irish music and dancing. They did a wonderful job of getting the audience involved.

We booked a private tour for 9 people with My Ireland Tour. Kristel created an itinerary to include all the sites we wanted to see and she answered all our questions in a timely manner. We added an additional person and had to make several changes to our accommodations. Each change was handled easily by Kristel and she communicated with me all along the way. Our tour guide Kevin meet us at the airport with a smile. Two of our group had a flight issue, and were late. Kevin made sure the 2 knew where we were and provided tickets to them for the site we were at during that time. We had a city tour in Dublin with Georgina, she was very knowledgable of Dublin and gave us a lot of great information we would not have known if we just toured on our own. During the trip, Kevin provided commentary regarding the places we were going to and clearly communicated what we should expect. He sang and told jokes too! He was flexible with the timeline and even squeezed in a sheepdog show that wasn't on our itinerary. I am very glad we choose My Ireland Tour. We had a fantastic time without having to worry about how to get to the next place or wait in long lines for tickets or parking.

Our guide, Tony did an excellent job of making sure we hit the high points of all we saw and did in those 10 days. We explored together, ate together, visited pubs together, but most importantly made wonderful memories together because My Ireland Tours took care of the details!! We will be back!

The size of the group restricted to 26. The inclusiveness of the tour for excursions and at least 2 meals a day. The hotels were all very good as well as the tour/bus drivers. The pace of the tours was good as there was never a really early morning pick up and we had time between excursions on the bus to relax.

Fourteen family members met in Dublin mid-July to begin our adventure with My Ireland's 10 Day Iconic Scenes Tour. We loved the schedule with two days hotel stops, we loved the bus that was not cram packed full, we loved our tour guide/driver Tony-the best in Ireland, we loved the history, and the songs, and the food... Mostly we loved exploring the culture and history of Ireland with family and new friends. We will be back!

We are so thankful we chose My Ireland Tour for our first visit to Ireland. The small tour (8 people) was absolutely fantastic. We saw so much of the country we wouldn't have seen on our own. And the small group was perfect. We never waited in line for anything and had intimate tours of places we would not have had otherwise. Our driver, David, was an absolute delight--funny, personable, knowledgable. The places we stayed were wonderful choices. Cannot recommend My Ireland Tour enough!

We just returned home after a 10 day custom trip with My Ireland Tour and it was an incredible experience! Eric was so easy to work with while planning the itinerary, collaborative and always very responsive with questions. He made great suggestions for places to visit and designed a wonderful trip for our first visit to Ireland. Our driver/guide Amanda was excellent. Very kind, knowledgeable, and an expert driver on those Irish country roads! All trip details were seamless throughout our stay, hotel accommodations were great, Mercedes sprinter was comfortable, and we all felt very well taken care of. Amanda also went out of her way to further personalize our trip by helping us locate the homestead of my grandmother - a spontaneous detour from our itinerary, but what a special experience! I highly recommend My Ireland Tour for your trip to Ireland, and I would definitely choose them again for a future visit.

26 July 2019 • 15 Day Iconic Scenes
We recently returned from the 15 day tour. This was one of the best tours I've ever been a part of. From the initial booking through the trip itself, My Ireland was on top of everything. We stayed at some really nice hotels and some good (sometimes great) food along the way. Our guides (Mark in Northern Ireland and Brendon down south) were both excellent. They offered a wealth of knowledge about the country. They took good care of group and even brought us to a couple of extra locations that weren't noted in the published itinerary. My wife had/has a foot injury and we were even contemplating having to miss the trip, but Mark and Brendon were always there to help her when needed and to sit with her at a few attractions where the walking was too much. Martina also did a great job in getting our family (had our 13 year old with us) rooms that were comfortable and spacious. We also met some great folks on the tour. I'll also give Mother Nature a shout out since it we only had 1 rainy day out of the 14 days on tour - lol. Overall, it was a memorable trip and a great job by My Ireland Tours!

24 July 2019 • Deluxe Castles Tour
The Deluxe Castle Tour was amazing; what a great trip! Tom was an outstanding Tour Leader. His driving skill on the narrow roads was exceptional and we felt safe and comfortable throughout. His planning was seamless and we seemed to arrive everywhere at the perfect time with everything ready for us. His knowledge of geography, history, economics and politics combined with his eloquent narrative kept us well informed at every stage. The coach was very comfortable with great views, air-conditioning and even Wi-Fi. The hotels were well chosen, providing 5-star accommodation, exceptional meals and fantastic views. In summary, this was a luxurious way to see Ireland and learn about its history and current affairs. I would have no hesitation in recommending this to my friends and we will now be looking to repeat the experience in Scotland.

I wanted to send you a separate email about the trip. It was literally the best trip we have ever taken. I cannot thank you enough for the planning and the places you took us to on the trip. Patrick Buckley was outstanding. His knowledge of the country and its history was so impressive. We learned so much from him. None of us wanted to leave. My oldest, in fact, is starting to look at going to University there. She cried when we had to leave. I have never laughed as hard as when we were driving around. He was funny, charming and very concerned with us having a good time. Each day we had a full schedule, but Patrick managed to take us to so many additional places everyday. It was absolutely wonderful. He was so passionate about the country and his love of Ireland. He wanted to show us EVERYTHING! His spirit was contagious. One place he stopped was at the Kerry Creamery. That was not on your list, but something you should check out. My daughters really enjoyed the tour and what we learned. They even have a petting zoo which the girls loved. The owners were both there and were so friendly. We also loved the sheep herding demonstration and the Bogs. We are already talking about coming back next year. It was the most positive experience ever. I appreciate your tremendous communication and the great pricing you offered for the whole tour. Everyone we met was lovely, but Patrick made it the best.

My husband and I recently returned home, from our “10 Day Iconic Scenes....' trip with “My Ireland Tour'. We booked this trip for our Honeymoon. We had an incredible time and can not speak highly enough of your tour company and your amazing driver that we had, Tony! He looked after everyone and tried to accommodate any requests, at all times. We never felt rushed or that we were stuck on a bus for too long - he gave us all plenty of time to go adventuring in each town/location. He taught our group so much about the history of Ireland and had everyone laughing quite often, during our drives. I'm sure all of your drivers are wonderful but we highly recommend Tony to anyone looking to book a trip :, The hotels were the nicest we've ever stayed at, the food was delicious and no one ever had to worry about going hungry! We enjoyed visiting all of the different places that we were able to, and felt that every single thing, was very well organized: by your company and Tony, all the hotel staff members, other tour guides, etc. We also really enjoyed getting to know and becoming friends with the 24 other people who made up our tour group. We really loved everything about this trip. Ireland is an incredible place and the people we met out there, are some of the most down-to-earth, witty people around. We will be comparing any future trips to the awesome experience we had on this one. Please continue offering a variety of different packages. Maybe we can visit someday again or better yet, we could just win a lottery and buy a second home in Ireland haha! Thank you so much once again, for everything.

We just wrapped up a 10 day private tour. David O'Neil was our fabulous tour guide. He was very knowledgeable of the many areas we visited and such a pleasant man. David went above and beyond for us - recommended wonderful pubs, brought us to the 9/11 memorial, walked us into every exhibit and guided us throughout our trip. Margarita was very helpful in putting this trip together for the 8 of us. She customized our trip and assisted with our hotel in Dublin for days extending beyond our tour. If you are looking for a personalized small group tour, I would highly recommend My Ireland Tour!

He was witty funny and patient. His knowledge of Ireland and its history made every aspect of this trip enjoyable. One of the most relaxing vacations. Thank you Nigel, My Ireland Tour for an unforgettable experience!! Will definitely go back and recommend this company and Nigel.

I highly recommend My Irish Tour for anyone looking to organize a custom tour of Ireland. We were a group of 16 ladies travelling to Ireland to participate in a Half Marathon & 10K earlier this month. Kristel O'Connor was an absolute pleasure to work with. She arranged all of our accommodations and persisted to make sure we got in to the only hotel in the village for race weekend. As a group we were quite specific with things we wanted to see and do - Kristel made it happen!! Our driver, Peter Mullen was fabulous right from the get-go. He got us where we needed to go and even added in a detour or two when asked. Payment was really easy as everyone just logged in to our tour and made their own payments by credit card: this can be an issue with many tour companies requesting a cashier's cheque from 1 person to cover everyone. I hope this helps anyone sitting on the fence make the decision to plan their trip to Ireland.

25 June 2019 • 10 Day Iconic Scenes
From the initial booking contact with Martina, our 10 day tour of Ireland( May 29-June 7, 2019, was a wonderful experience. The itinerary was well planned and we never felt rushed. Our guide, Colm, made us feel well cared for and between his Irish history lessons, jokes, songs, efficient hotel check ins and luggage handling and incredible driving skills we always had a smile on our faces. He knew everyone on the tour and was responsive, polite and kind. We added a few days prior to the start of the tour to visit the wonderful free museums that are in central Dublin. Highly recommend doing that at the beginning or end of the tour. Our accomodations throughout the trip were excellent, the coach was comfortable and our fellow travelers were a pleasure to be with. Don't forget your umbrella and some waterproof shoes or boots because that beautiful green Ireland can be rainy!

When I was researching a tour company for Ireland I couldn't find a single negative comment about My Ireland Tour. Now I understand why! I have recently returned from the Ancient Ireland Dingle version tour for 8. From the iconic sites and accommodations to the expert tour guide, we couldn't have asked for more. The pace and variety of site visits was perfect for a first time visitor. Our tour guide Colm blended Irish history and humor with professionalism and charm. The accommodations offered a wonderful blend of experiences and service was outstanding. This was truly a value added experience!

The trip was fantastic! We did the Ancient Ireland Dingle tour and the quality of this trip is top-notch, from sites to accommodations. Our driver-guide was Colm, and he is an absolute asset as a guide. He was great fun. I hope to return to Ireland someday and will absolutely use your tour services again--I wouldn't see Ireland any other way now! Thank you for putting together such quality tours!

Exceeded expectations in every way! With Martina's assistance, we planned a small group custom tour for 12 and everything was fabulous. We loved our itinerary, our accommodations were top-notch, the restaurant recommendations were spot-on, and we loved our driver/guide, Colm. He was attentive, knowledgeable, personable and made every day an adventure. Such efficiency from the planning throughout the actual trip - we have not one complaint about our 10-day amazing vacation! We highly recommend this tour company!

Recently booked a tour with My Ireland Tour and it was perfect! I have nothing bad to say. Our guide was amazing, friendly, and very knowledgeable. It was so nice that everything was taken care of from hotels, experiences and even some meals. They really went above and beyond so that we could truly enjoy our vacation without stress. Highly recommend this tour company!

We take a family trip once or twice a year – 28 of us that includes 14 kids under 16. Bus driver/tour guide – best ever! Mark was funny, kind, and very informed! Also, no accidents. He made the trip special and flexible allowing us to make additional stops never planned. Ask for Mark. The home office also went over and above to handle all the planning – and gave us the best value ,I selected My Ireland Tour, after bids and comparing three others. If the company and Mark are in the next country our family visits – no question – we would book with them.

Friendly, knowledgeable driver. Roy gave us a great mix of history but with a first person perspective of the country. The tours were very good and varied - historical, ancient monastery, hiking, good tours of Belfast and Derry with local guides. Comfortable clean hotels. Portmarnock Hotel was beautiful. Small group. Highly recommend.

I have just taken my second tour with your company and it was amazing. I was by myself a couple of years ago and talked about it so much that two friends and my wife wanted to go so I brought them this time. We did not have the best weather but in spite of that it was great! Colin was guide, friend, comedian, driver and nursemaid to us all and the best ever! Food was great and the hotels exceptional. A beautiful country and the friendliness is infectious. Will be back!

Just returned a week ago from a marvelous trip to Ireland with my BFF's, arranged by Kristel O'Connor who did a magnificent job in arranging our trip! Kristel is knowledgable, professional, adaptable & made our somewhat static criteria seem effortless in accommodating. The hotels were wonderful - clean, friendly service and nice accommodations. Our driver, Peter Mullen, what can I say, he is absolutely THE BEST! Highly recommend, will definitely tell others & hope to use again!

The experience was terrific. The country is beautiful, the people were gracious and friendly, the hotels were impressive, Tom, out guide, was excellent: knowledgeable and accomodating, and even the weather was kind of fun, going from sunshine to rain to subnshine in a matter of minutes. I'd be hard pressed to think of any improvements. Definitely recommend it.

We returned home yesterday from an 8 day trip to Ireland. My Ireland Tour was amazing and exceeded our expectations in every way! From the beginning, Kristel guided us in our planning process, and even when we needed unexpected special accommodations a week prior to our trip, she was able to make that happen. The hotels and itinerary were custom-selected for our small group family tour and everything that we requested was accommodated. The coach was very clean and comfortable. One day we had a substitute driver, Dan, who was kind, knowledgeable, and professional, as were other special guides along the way. We really want to give a large amount of gratitude to our driver/guide, Mark. Our trip would not have been the same without his knowledge, skill, professionalism, kindness, and compassion. We all felt a special bond with him that we carried with us back to the USA. We would definitely tour with My Ireland Tour again, and we will highly recommend them to family and friends!!!

5+ STARS FOR SURE!!! Wow! Words can't even begin to express the amazing experience our group had with MIT! From start to finish Eric help plan the absolute perfect trip! I led a group of photography students from Nossi College of Art out of Nashville, TN USA and from the time we stepped off the plane until the time we popped back on MIT took care of us and treated us like family. Our driver/tour guide ,Dermot, went above and beyond to make sure the college students captured picture perfect moments!!! I can't recommend this tour company enough. Hats off to Dermot for being the best in the touring business! It was truly the trip of a lifetime!

This is the best tour I have ever been on! Dermot was so awesome and very kind. He knew we were a photography group and took us to all the great spots and gave us a bit more time to get the amazing shots. I recommend this tour guide for sure. I can't wait to go back to Ireland.

What a marvelous experience! We booked a private tour with 2 friends and loved every minute. The My Ireland staff asked what we wanted to experience and did a perfect job of making it happen--lovely B&Bs as we worked our way across the country with a stop in County Kerry to visit Irish relatives. The last night we stayed in Ballynahinch Castle--what a fabulous experience--picturesque setting, posh rooms and best dinner I've ever had. Our guide/driver Patrick was 'grand' and we felt we got an insider's view of Ireland from our conversations with him. Highly recommend this company!

Since childhood my three sisters and I have been dreaming of traveling together to visit where our ancestors came from in Northern Ireland. We looked up several organized tours, but none of them really incorporated all of the places we were hoping to visit. My Ireland Tours offered an excellent option of a customized tour with an experienced driver/guide and comfortable transportation. We worked with their experts to come up with the perfect itinerary with flexibility to make changes on the way. This really came in to play when weather delayed one of the highlights of our trip, yet we were able to wait it out for a while before crossing the Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge. This wouldn't have been an option on a regular tour. Our driver/guide Brian was extremely accommodating and so much more than a driver. He shared his extensive knowledge of the history of the area as well as some fun facts and a bit of Irish humor! The accommodations arranged for this trip were exceptional, including overnight in a luxurious castle with a gourmet dinner included. Absolutely amazing! This trip absolutely lived up to our hopes after decades of dreaming about this excursion together. Kudos to the whole team!

Best Ever! Tony McGoey is just the best guide ever!! I promise you will never have more fun in a small group tour of Ireland with anyone better than Tony! Best hotels, castles, restaurants, tours, and camaraderie on the planet! Do as much or as little as you like! Learn as much or as little as you care to with Tony to guide you. 10 stars from me!

We took the 11 day Iconic Tour of Ireland with Tony McGoey as our driver...he was fantastic to say the least....he made us fall in love with the island with his knowledge and history of the island, his stories , some true, and of course his wonderful singing voice. From the Abbeys,to Galway to the Cliffs of Moher, the Ring of Kerry, to the local farm we had lunch at near Killarney, it was all wonderful. Our hotels were 5-star and the meals were amazing. Tony went out of his way to make sure everyone in our group of 25 were well taken care of in every way. We only saw 1/2 the island so we will go back and when we do My Ireland Tours is who we will call...they are fantastic!!!

We are just finishing up our second My Ireland Tour. There aren't words to describe how awesome these experiences have been. Superb itineraries, great accommodations and exceptional tour guides are just a few of the superlatives that come to mind. We are already planning for a third trip for next year. My Ireland Tour is, hands down, the absolutely superior way to explore Ireland!

I just returned from the 6 day tour May 5-10. What an amazing experience! As a solo female traveler for the first time alone in another country, I was nervous. Our tour guide Brian and the amazing people on the tour made my experience spectacular. We all looked out for each other and feeling welcomed was so important to me. Our tour guide Brian was funny, very knowledgeable, and made sure we were safe at all times. The places we visited were so breathtaking. Thank you so much for this great experience. I will hold Ireland close to my heart forever.

We booked a private tour with My Ireland Tour for 7 days in April and wanted to thank Kristel for planning a perfect itinerary for us, a perfect blend of history, nature, sites and authentic Irish culture. We had such an amazing time traveling through Ireland with our driver/guide, Brian Rawlings. Brian was so professional, attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly.

Just wanted to thank everyone at My Ireland Tours! Recently finished the 10 day iconic scenes and had an amazing time! Our driver/guide Tom Lavin was amazing. He truly helped make this trip one I will always remember! I was very impressed with everything. From the hotels we stayed at, to the daily activities. Everything was well planned, from the time given at each stop to getting hotel keys handed to you as your getting off the bus. I was able to travel with a great group of people ,25 on the bus, and the small group was perfect! Once again, thank you Tom, Martina and Kristel for making this trip what it was! Will always recommend MIT to anyone that asks!

It is all thanks to Martina for her quick response to any question, to our guide/driver Tom Levin, guides we had at various sites we visited, to the small group we traveled with, who many later became friends.

Thank you so much! Hope to go back soon!

We took the 10 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour and had a wonderful time. The tour shows a good cross section of the country. We appreciated the smaller group, 26 on the bus. We were lucky and had fantastic weather. Our driver was Tom Lavin, and he was top notch. I'd give him ten stars if that was an option. He's very knowledgeable, always helpful and courteous, and funny, too! We rented a car for a few days after the tour ended, and Tom gave us helpful information about driving in Ireland. The tour is very well organized from start to finish. We highly recommend this company.

My husband and I just returned from the 10-day Iconic Scenes tour. ,last week in March 2019, Words cannot express how delighted we were with this company. We were so lucky to have Tom Lavin as our tour guide/driver. He was always pleasant, professional, personable, knowledgeable about current events as well as a walking encyclopedia of Ireland's history, so very accommodating to the guests, too....he is a gem and My Ireland Tour can be proud of him. The hotels on the whole were very good, most meals good, breakfasts were fantastic. Coach very comfortable and clean. Gee, can you tell we had a great time?! My Ireland Tour rates a 10/10 in our book. Thank you for a great tour and for the memories.

What a marvelous experience! My husband and I were on the 5 day Northern Ireland tour from March 20-25, 2019 and enjoyed every minute of it! Our tour guide, Nigel O'Connor, was so professional and attentive to the group, always conscious of our schedule for the day but also allowing for slight changes as necessary. For example, two guests wanted to attend St. Michael's early mass one morning and that request was accommodated with an alternate pick up location for them. The tour was just the right pace with drives no more than 2 hours at a time with an opportunity to stop and stretch once during the drive. The sites we visited were beyond our expectations... Titanic museum in Belfast, Giants Causeway, Derry/Londonderry wall tour, boat tour on Loche Erne, and Trim Castle were all highlights. Our accommodations and the meals were exceptional every night. Thanks so much for a terrific, memorable vacation!

This tour and company far exceeded my best expectations. My husband and I are an older couple and took the 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour in June. My husband is no longer able to travel but I fell in love with Ireland. My daughter will accompany me this time. We hope to take the Castles and Backroads Tour. I would not think of going with another tour company. You can't improve on perfection.

This was my bucket list trip, I went in Oct. Ireland was everything I had hoped. Tony the drive/guide was ... well I wonder how many tour guides sing to their cargo? He was great. Always in good humor and full of did you know's... The hotels were good. The food, well as a picker eater I am not a good judge of that but I was never hungry. Having only 26 people on the tour is not overwhelming and we all got along :). All of the stops on the tour were great! I would like to have had more time at the Monastery ruins. The only thing I would change, and this has nothing to do with the tour, is not getting the flu my last day in Dublin... so glad I booked an extra day!

This was our first trip to Ireland and we looked at several different options. We were not disappointed with My Ireland Tours. We did the combined 10 Day Iconic and the 5 Day Northern Ireland tours. We LOVED Harry, our 10 day tour driver/guide. We liked the pace of the 10 day tour and felt like we really got to .see. Ireland. Nigel, our driver/guide for our Northern tour was equally good. The hotels were very nice and both drivers were flexible in responding to requests from the group for longer time in certain places and allowing us to skip one tour and pick us up in the village. All in all, very happy. Martina was excellent and quick to respond to any question we had. She helped us secure additional nights in a hotel for our pre-tour stay. I would definitely recommend My Ireland Tour to anyone who wants a true Irish experience.

We chose the 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour to celebrate our 30th anniversary. Tom Lavin was our driver-guide and was outstanding! He was so knowledgable about the history and current events/life in Ireland. He entertained us with his humor and stories. We saw such a variety of historical sites, breathtaking scenic views and local daily life. We loved the small group and made many new friends. Most meals and all admission costs were included in the tour. Our hotels were in great locations so that we could venture into town when we had free time. We returned home truly relaxed and felt like we had a true vacation. So glad we decided to go with myirelandtours!

What a wonderful experience with wonderful people. Kieran, our guide was knowledgeable and generous. Our group was small enough to become cohesive and we've formed relationships that will last. The tour itself was well-paced, informative and comfortable and we were able to experience sites that were unique and off the beaten path. I loved our accommodations. The food was great. Don't hesitate. Alone or coupled or grouped. You won't be disappointed. You'll expand your understanding of Irish history and culture. And you'll make fabulous memories!

I usually travel on my own with friends, but this Northern Ireland tour was way beyond my expectations. Nigel was an excellent tour guide and Peter, our guide in Derry, explained everything for me about The Troubles and how the area has moved forward. All the hotels were top notch, and plenty of choices for breakfast and dinner. I especially liked the train ride from Coleraine to Derry. I chatted with a Irish woman on her way home from work. The people on this tour were so friendly and fun to be with on each of the outings and we had wonderful conversations at meal times. I highly recommend this tour and My Ireland Tour.

Just experienced a wonderful small group tour with My Ireland Tour and our driver/guide Kieran Mangan. The eight in our group got along nicely and enjoyed the knowledge, humor and kindness Kieran offered. The itinerary was not too touristy, and the pace was relaxed and allowed for some flexibility. It was nice to not always be on a beaten path. The overall quality of the food, hotels and selected sites was great! Ireland is a beautiful country and My Ireland Tour made visiting easy, fun and interesting. While we certainly can and have traveled independently ,and in fact, this particular trip was a mix of tour and independent travel), the overall value and experience were both enhanced by the small group tour.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our My Ireland tour. Our tour driver and guide Colm was just an excellent guide. He had a very good level of knowledge about Irish history and he demonstrated a wonderful Irish spirit when he talked about each of the sites and areas we visited. He was humorous, interesting and a real Irishman with a love for his country and an interesting life philosophy reflected in his Irish upbringing. The bus was clean and roomy which was good and each day Colm spiffed things up inside and out which was nice. We were lucky to have a great group of 12 total people who got along well and were interested in having a good time and enjoying our Irish experience. We will definitely do another My Ireland tour.

We recently booked our tour of Ireland through My Ireland Tours based on a recommendation from a friend. Our friends took a private tour with a driver guide and that sounded great to us so we could focus on the scenery while someone else did the driving. I emailed Kristel and told her what we were looking to do and she responded very quickly with a sample itinerary. We emailed back and forth a few times to tweak the plans and she set up everything from hotels to admission tickets to the driver. When we arrived at the airport, we were greeted by Ger Murphy who started us on our trip. We had so much fun with Ger, he was informative, engaging and funny. We all enjoyed his company and knowledge. All of the hotels Kristel booked for us were just what we needed. We made so many wonderful memories and a lot of great photos to show for it. We saw many more sites in the time we had than if we had tried to do our own planning, plus we would have gotten lost for sure, We would highly recommend booking your Ireland trip through My Ireland Tours.

06 September 2018 • 15 Day Iconic Scenes
We just finished our 15 day Iconic tour. This was our first trip to Ireland. We absolutely loved it! Our drivers Tom Lavin and Barry Loe were great. Barry deserves special mention as he made sure Bob got to a pharmacy, while the rest of us were enjoying the sites, when he ran out of meds for an awful cold. The hot toddies at Bushmills definitely helped. We miss the morning Irish coffee stop with friends. We had such a wonderful group of friends by the time we departed. We plan to come back again with My Ireland Tours.

My family and I had a wonderful time on tour with My Ireland Tour. We had a private coach for 7 of us. We visited the West Coast, Galway, Kilarny and Cork. Joe did an amazing job and we saw many things we would not have seen if we didn't have a tour guide. His personal stories of Ireland made it all that much more impactful. They customized everything to my family's needs and made it easy to plan. The arrangements were top of the line. Highly recommend.

The Deluxe Irish Castles tour was absolutely amazing. My wife and I chose it for our 40th anniversary; and we could not have asked for better. I am over a year late in writing this [we went in June of '17] but I can assure you nothing has changed in the quality of the product here. Our driver/guide Tony was amazing [and he can sing pretty well if you can get him to do so] and his base of knowledge made every aspect of the tour more than we could have hoped for. The lodging was first rate, the countryside breathtaking, and the tour company totally professional yet welcoming in every way.

After a lot of research with different tour companies, we decided to book the 6 day Discover Northern Ireland tour with .My Ireland Tour.. It was well worth it. Very well organised from the moment we were picked up from the airport. All local guides that the company used were amazing, as we were also pleased with our driver/guide Roy. The sights were well chosen, and the country is absolutely fascinating. It was a wonderful trip, also because we got to meet other group members from all over the world.

I took my mother on the 10-day tour as an 80th birthday gift. This is the first guided tour I've booked, and the My Ireland Tour website was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I can honestly say this holiday was better than I could have imagined. Everything from the fellow passengers, to the bus, to the activities, to the guide was terrific! Each day was as fun as the previous. I was a bit sad for it to end. I want to say a very special thank you to Tony, our guide, for really making this trip special. Not only was Tony knowledgeable about the scheduled sites/stops, but he also gave us information about the Irish history and people in general. I also want to compliment all the guides who were scheduled at the various historical sites. They, too, were incredibly knowledgeable and terrific with their delivery. I will definitely be recommending My Ireland Tour to my friends and family.

The itinerary was wonderful, the bus was excellent and our guide, Peter Kelly was absolutely superb. The small group concept of this tour along with the .hub and spoke. structure made for a trip that was great beyond our expectations. Every single aspect of this tour from the booking process and through the entire tour itself were outstanding and we highly recommend My Ireland Tour for your visit to Ireland!

We had a wonderful time on the deluxe castle tour. Our guide Tom went above and beyond to see that all our needs were met. The castle were beautiful and the food was great- every night we were given a choice of several appetizers, main courses and desserts. I would highly recommend this incredible trip.

My extended family of 10 recently spent 6 days touring Ireland with our guide, Keith Boyd. We mainly stuck to the South and did a big loop from east to west leaving from and returning to Dublin. It was a blast! We saw amazing sites and ventured off the beaten path occasionally...all so beautiful!

With the help of Eric from My Ireland Tours we created a near perfect tour of Ireland. We had 29 people on our tour and al had a great time. The highlights were the Jameson's Distillery, the town of Kenmare and the Heritage Center and Molly Gallivan's in Bonane. Our driver, Paddy, was the best and fit right in with our crazy group. This trip was the first time in Ireland for many and all said they would return. Thank you all again for making this so special.

Our tour was very pleasurable, although maybe not as memorable as our other four trips to the U.K. My wife and I thoroughly enjoy historical venues and spending time in unique villages and contrasting the difference between U.K. life and life in the States. We didn't see as many historical spots as we would have preferred, but that's just the nature of the tour we selected. Our tour guide, Tom Lavin, couldn't have been more professional or accommodating. Overall, a nice trip.

Wonderful tour of Ireland! Our guide Tom was very informative and a great guy. Hotels and food were all top notch. Saw lots, but at a nice pace with free time to explore on your own. Met some great people. Ireland is a wonderful country full of natural beauty and genuine people.

We had the most wonderful experience with your tour! Our guide was Harry Fisher and he was very knowledgeable and informative the entire trip ,and great fun as well). We took the Celtic Explorer tour which was an excellent combination of places, people and things, I highly recommend it. We are currently planning on going back next year to tour the southern half and intend to use your services again.

My son, mother, and I did a short custom tour of Ireland earlier this month. Patrick Breen was our guide and he was amazing. Patrick was previously a teacher and I found the teacher in him to be a perfect match for his job as a guide. Pat knows his history! Ireland was amazing and beautiful. Our trip had some of everything in it. We spent a night on a farm, saw sheepdogs hard at work on a farm, saw our share of forts, churches, and castles. I recommend My Ireland Tour to anyone looking to book a guided tour. And ask for Patrick Breen!

Just finished our 10 day Iconic Tour of Ireland. Couldn't have asked for a better driver/guide than the marvellous Barry ,even though he does have a wee bit of trouble with his left and his right). Just joking Barry, you were great and we loved every minute of it.

My sister and I took the Celtic Explorer tour in June 2018. The tour and guide, Harry, were amazing!! Harry took such good care of us, and he has an amazing amount of information to share as he's been a guide for a couple of decades. He also gave everyone in our group a personalized map of Ireland outlining everywhere we stopped. Martina at My Ireland Tour was always helpful as well. My only wish was for some of the hotels to be closer to the city centers. My sister and I moved on to Scotland after Ireland and joined a different tour company, and our experience with that tour and guide only emphasized how great My Ireland Tour and Harry were.

I want to thank My Ireland Tour and our driver/guide Tom for a memorable trip of a lifetime. I knew that MIT was the one when I saw their well planned website that left nothing to the imagination. The 10 day iconic trip had everything for the first timer to Ireland. It was very comforting to know what hotels,tours and costs associated with the tour would be. Our driver,Tom, was the best. He made sure we were cared for in all areas, which meant he put in very long days. He was knowledgeable on the points of interest during the whole trip. He also had a good sense of humor. I can't thank MIT enough for providing us with an exceptional experience in beautiful Ireland.

I just arrived home from the best holiday I have ever had! It was the 10 day iconic tour and our tour guide was Tom. Throughout the entire tour every person said several time how incredible Tom is. He's the best tour guide I've ever met and if you're lucky to get him you're going to have an incredible adventure. The tour itself is wonderful from start to finish and if you're lucky you'll get a group half as good as mine. I will never forget it and will look forward to doing another tour with My Ireland Tours.

Our family of 4 traveled with My Ireland Tour company for the 6 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland. We thoroughly enjoyed the time. The country was quite lovely and we got to see a sampling of so many different things and areas around the island. It was so nice not to have to worry about driving. The hotels were nice, the coach was comfortable and new. The driver was excellent and contributed so much knowledge about the places that we visited and scenes along the way. Overall it was a great experience and I highly recommend the company.

We absolutely loved our Ireland trip. Tom, our guide, was professional and personable. He made sure everything was arranged in advance and he is extremely knowledgeable about Ireland's history. Our tour group was awesome! We built many friendships while we were there. I recommend this tour group to anyone who wants to see Ireland and leave all the stressful tasks to someone else.

First I must say I am still in awwe of the beauty of Ireland and the genuine kindness of the Irish people. Next I will tell you I am disabled and unable to walk very far. This company and our wonderful tour guides went out of their way for me as I needed a scooter to get around These guys had to haul out to scooter every place we went and set it up for me. They brought the battery in and charged it every night. All this with kindness. It still brings years to my eyes. Because of them I was able to have a life time dream come true. I love you and am eternally grateful to you Tony and Cahill. Sorry I think I spelt that wrong, but you know you are. Much love always.

I just got back from a 7 day tour of Ireland with My Ireland Tours. Kristel, in planning was so great to work with and accommodated all our tour requests. Our driver Patrick, was friendly and knowledgeable. This made our trip flawless. the Bed and Breakfasts and hotels were top notch and the food was excellent. This is definitely the way to go. Sit back in comfort and let someone else do the driving. Well worth the added expense. Many of our passes into attractions were also included. Wish we would have had more time. Fabulous trip and I would highly recommend My Ireland Tours.

Our family booked My Ireland Tour for a siblings trip in the beginning of May. We were beyond thrilled with everything about the tour. The hotels were top notch and our tour guide Ger Murphy was the BEST! We all learned so much about our Irish Heritage and at the same time enjoyed the gorgeous scenery and insightful commentary of Ger. He always recommended the best restaurants for us each evening and also the most fun pubs to visit. I would recommend this tour company to anyone who is planning a visit to Ireland.

We recently completed a wonderful private tour with My Ireland Tour and can't say enough how easily it was to do so. Everything went so smoothly for our group, especially in light of some unique nuances that we had with our plans. Our tour guide/driver, Tom Lavin, was simply THE BEST! He was so friendly, informative, and passionate for his home country made our trip one of the best that we have ever taken! We have returned home with wonderful memories and stories to share with others so they can come and enjoy the beauty and wonders of Ireland too.

My wife and I just completed our 10 - day Iconic tour of Ireland and we had the privilege of having Tony as our driver. What can I say but fantastic things about this tour, other than it was too short. In the planning stages, I was evaluating, CIE and Insight, and one night I accidently stumbled on this company while reading reviews on the web. From the beginning, the hotels, were far nicer ,for the value), the tour locations included passes ,not just a jump on, jump off, bus ticket), to every location, and our driver / guide and now friend, went out of his way time and time again to ensure we had a fantastic visit. With Tony taking care of the group, and I mean taking care of the group, he was there 24/7, breakfast and dinner, he was always waiting at the table, porting our bags, even, special reservations for shows ensuring we were all seated and taken care at every venue, to his personally handing out room keys at each of the different hotels, nothing, and I mean nothing was missed by his view in pampering us with care, with his white-glove treatment. With respect to the locations, grant it, there were locations that were part of the standard tour, but he always added a twist to the locations with information and tidbits that just were not part of the everyday Irish tour, not to mention, there was so many other locations that were not normally included; a stop in Cong for the Quiet Man locales, a visit to Sean's bar in Athlone, there was just too many to speak of, and each time it was Tony going out of his way to ensure we were enjoying our trip and taken care of. For the money, the luxury, the value, the locations, and just plain pampering we received, I would suggest, and whole heartedly recommend this company to family and friends and we will visit again, and you can bet, it will be with My Ireland Tour.

My husband and I traveled with My Ireland Tour company for the . 15 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour. beginning March 28. I researched many different companies before choosing My Ireland Tour and it was indeed an excellent choice. The breadth and pacing of the tour was superior. We felt that the schedule gave us a very good idea of the history of yesterday and life today in Ireland. Tony, our guide in the North ,5 days), is incredibly knowledgable about the Troubles. Tony went beyond his duties as guide/driver and thoughtfully made sure that each guest was comfortable and met as many of the requests that he could, i.e. making Easter services happen for several guests. Thanks so much Tony for that experience. The Southern tour ,10 days, was given by guide/driver Cathal. Cathal is a walking history book and made history come alive as we drove thru Ireland. Cathal has the patience of Job and always remained calm even on the Ring of Kerry as drivers continued down the road going the wrong direction. Tony and Cathal were both very concerned about our safety and our .happiness. as we experienced Ireland. Their names need to be added to that plaque of greatness! The tour gave us so many different experiences and it provided a great sampling of Irish culture and Irish life. Hotels were very satisfactory and accommodating and they were located within walking distance of major areas. The amount of time allotted to see the various sites was perfect and the free time scheduled was generous. Prior to our trip, I communicated several times with Martina who is professional and on top of her game. She made me feel comfortable about traveling to Ireland with this group. Thanks Martina! My husband and I highly recommend My Irish Tours for those who want to experience Ireland. You will fall in love with this country.

Just returned from the 10 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour. Had an exceptional time all the way round. We were there for Hurricane Ophelia which of course affected one day but we were in very good hands with Tom Lavin our guide, and My Ireland Tour handled things in a highly professional way. We felt our safety and needs were the priority. The new Mercedes bus was awesome. The hotels were lovely. We were very well fed to say the least. As a solo traveller it was perfect for me as our group was so friendly, fun and kind. I will likely take another tour with this company, as l know they are top notch. Thanks again Tom, Martina and my travel buddies.

I recently returned for both the Ireland tours. It truly was the trip of a lifetime. We had three different drivers, Tom, Tony, and Enda. All very special in their own way. Tom is so knowledgeable about his country. He made us see Ireland thru the eyes of the Irish, the history, current events, and the pride felt by the Irish in their country. It was a memorable and emotional experience. Tony had stories he shared with us and he SANG for us, a beautiful Irish voice. Enda took us to a special hidden waterfall. The hotels we stayed at ran the gamut from nice, to very special. Portmarnock is on the Irish Sea. Magical. I enjoyed the Randles Hotel in Killarney, it had an old world feel about it. I was lucky to get a room in the old part of the hotel, in front with a bay window and a window seat. The Dunboyne was another beautiful place. It is within very close walking distance, under 5 minutes, to a village with shops and restaurants. I did have a problem with the Clayton Hotel Bainbridge. It is a beautiful hotel, old world, beautiful stained-glass windows. The placement of my room was completely unacceptable and the hotel was not interested in changing it. I spoke with Tom and he fixed it. The location of my changed room was perfect. Score Tom and My Ireland Tours! There tour included so many places, and the days are full. I left the tour while in Dublin to see some museums important to me. Tom made sure I knew where to find the bus when I was finished. The size of the bus vs the size of the tour allowed for personal comfort. As a solo traveler I did not want to be jammed in with strangers and this was not a problem. The tour itself exceeded my highest expectations. I feel the communication from the office could be improved. I was told I would have my tour information ten days before and received it only three days before I left for Ireland. This made me feel a little uneasy. They did arrange my arrival a day early with no problem. I hope this company expands into other places in the UK as I would tour with them happily.

My wife and I completed our ten day Ireland Deluxe Castle tour where we stayed in manor houses. The accommodations were for the most part very nice except for one stay where quarters were tight. The food was excellent and the people were as warm as can be. I can't say enough about the hospitality. Our group of 25 cared about each other which made the trip even more enjoyable. Our tour guide Edna was an excellent driver and very knowledgeable about Ireland, the countryside and its history. I only wish we had time to stop for pixs of the sheep in pastures, esp. in Galway where pastures were bordered by old stone walls. Seeing sheep herding vs the visit to a park would have been nice as well. Only one bad day of weather but this is Ireland. Overall the temp. was fine and the trip was a great experience. I wish I lived where we had more sheep than people, more green land and a calmer way of life. Ireland is truly not a place to be missed and we would visit it again. Thank you for the memories.

My wife and I had a great trip for our first visit to Ireland, Sept 17 - 26. Even the weather held out for us on our 10 Day Iconic Tour. Our driver and guide , Brian O'Rourke , was very accommodating and very knowledgable I think he enjoyed being with us as much as we enjoyed his company. Would recommend this tour company and driver and we look forward to returning and enjoying another one of their tours!

A key part of our trip! I work with Krystal at My Ireland Tours for about 9 months prior to our trip. She helped my with everything from sights to see, hotels, restaurants...EVERYTHING. We traveled with a family of eight. All adults. I could go on and on about how fantastic this company is!! I welcome anyone to contact me with further questions. We had David as our driver. All of us felt very taken care of...he made sure we all knew where we were going, offer suggestions, and changes to our itinerary. He felt like part of our family by the end of the trip. From start to finish they help to provide us a very memorable trip!!

We had a 9 day 8 night tour planned and one day trip as well.. Working with Kristel was great. She gave us a rough draft after we told her what we were looking for. Then was great about tweaking it with our requests. When ended up with a filled but not rushed tour. We Had heard about how awesome Tony was and requested him as our guide. We did get him and were not disappointed. His excellent knowledge, personality, humor, and patience was amazing. The trip was planned way in advance and seemed to take forever to arrive. We it was finally time were pleased that everything went as smoothly with the tour as we had hoped. Tony handled everything and even went above and beyond with helping with lost luggage for one of our members. His suggestions along the way were always spot on. Can't wait to get back to Ireland! We will definitely be suing My Ireland Tours again.

My husband and I spent our 1 year anniversary on the 10 day Iconic tour...it was truly amazing! Every stop was full of great food, good company and rich history. Our guide Tom knows the country and the people so well, he brought us to great pubs we wouldve probably overlooked on our own and added a few extra sites on our tour that we would not have thought of, like a demonstration with a sheep herder and his dogs and the Celtric Crystal shop. I learned so much about the country, it's people and the current events from Tom's narratives on the bus rides and the guides at the tour sites. It was an excellent experience, worth every penny, and when we plan to visit Ireland again, we will be using My Ireland Tours to guide us once more!

We would like to thank Tom our main driver again. He is an awesome person and a wealth of knowledge, which made our trip totally fantastic! We would also like to thank Enda and Tony. They were the two drivers who covered for Tom on his days off. They too were awesome and brought their own personal Flair to the days that they were with us. Tony serenaded us with some wonderful Irish Tunes and Enda kept us quite entertained with his upbeat outgoing personality. Radomir and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to go to Ireland. By the way you will be able to tell by the pictures sent to your company that we quickly went from a couple on vacation to a group of friends on vacation. Thank you to all sharing this trip with us.

We absolutely can't say enough about our My Ireland Deluxe Castle Tour. We are telling all our friends...do this...you will NOT regret it. Enda, our driver/tour guide was absolutely amazing...to the point that we miss hearing his voice every day. He was full of wonderful information and insight about what we were seeing and the people. All the other guides we met along the way were also extremely knowledgeable. The hotels were gorgeously stunning to stay in and we were treated as royalty by much of the staff at each hotel. Despite some days with poor weather, we were able to keep smiling and keep seeing the many highlights that were on our bucket list. We even got engaged on the Cliffs of Moher...and all our tour-mates and Enda made that joyous occasion even more so. We would absolutely recommend and take another tour with My Ireland Tour...and would absolutely request Enda as our guide.

We started planning a family tour of Ireland in September of 2016, and worked with My Ireland Tour to customize a tour that fit our needs. We included a visit to the .family. farm, and the Irish cousins. They were not only able to accommodate all of our sites we wanted to see, but they added additional ones on our itinerary, and even on a daily basis they added more things to enhance our experience. We had 17 people from ages of early 30s to near 80, and everyone had a fantastic experience. Our tour guide and driver was so exceptional, Brian, that we all felt like he was part of our family at the end of the trip and did not want to leave him! It will be a trip we will long remember and made special because we could customize it to fit our needs. I highly recommend this company.

Windy, cold, wet, and well worth it! It's Ireland doncha know! Excellent bus tour with wonderful guide/driver Kieran Mangan. We had a superb time on our Essential Ireland Tour! We really liked the hub-and-spoke structure, where we spent two or three nights in a single hotel and did day trips outward -- this saved a lot of time and the odious pack-and-vacate process. The sites we visited and Kieran's extensive knowledge of and love for his country were super; so too was his even-handed, positive way of explaining contentious issues such as .The Troubles. and the Rebellion. Outstanding Experience! I highly recommend this outfit!

just returned from the Castles and back Roads Tour - it was amazing! This was my first .group tour. as well as my first trip to Ireland - a trip I have long desired to take with ancestry on my mother's side. I am so glad I chose My Ireland Tours - I can say nothing more but WOW - the accommodations were above expectations and the scenery was spectacular and the agenda was so easy-going yet provided ample time for each of the unique sites. Also I have to say our guide Harry was so much fun - full of history(which I was craving, but also funny with his unique sense of presenting a .fact. that would soon turn out not to be a fact ,albeit some groaners LOL). Seriously he was a great guide with a wonderful sense of humor. I can't wait to return to Ireland and am considering the Northern Belfast tour with My Ireland tours next - wouldn't even consider going with anyone else.

I recently experienced the most amazing trip to Ireland with my husband, daughter, son-in-law, and two grandchildren ,ages 10 & 8). I was a bit nervous knowing there would be no other kids on the 10 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour, but our amazing group ,we are all in touch!, and our fantastic driver/guide, Tom Lavin, quickly put my fears to rest! I cannot say enough about Tom's professionalism, his knowledge and passion for his homeland, his wit and charm, and his ability to meet the needs of every one of the 25 members in our group. We truly appreciated how he helped to find the Connemara Pony Show for my granddaughter in Clifden. The overall trip was magnificent and will always be one of my favorite vacations of all time.

The second week of August we did the Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour. My wife and I booked this with two other couples, we were not sure what to expect. The trip by far was above and beyond our expectations. We enjoyed every minute of the trip. Our guide and driver Tom made the trip as wonderful as it was, he made our trip an adventure more than just a sight seeing trip.Our whole group of 25 people were magnificent, everyone got along and became friends. Ireland is a beautiful country and we thank My Ireland Tours for making it happen!

We wanted to do a 10 day family trip to Ireland in 2017 for 3 generations of 10 adults using our itinerary with a private driver. After much research we chose My Ireland Tour with Eric O' Gorman as our primary contact in Ireland. We gave him our initial itinerary and hotel suggestions, and after many emails back and forth over several months, we finalized our itinerary and chose My Ireland Tour to provide the logistics and transportation ,bus and driver). Eric was extremely helpful in suggesting additions to our itinerary, booking the hotels, and developing a workable driving schedule. Our driver, Patrick Buckley, was a superb guide, and with his vast knowledge, fit in several extra stops of interesting sights not even in the guide books. He was very friendly and engaging in telling us about Ireland, plus wanting to hear about the USA and our lives and opinions. Because most of us are of Irish heritage he spent extra time talking about the area our ancestors came from and playing all kinds of Irish music for our pleasure on the bus. It was an outstanding tour, but unfortunately we were disappointed that our vehicle was too large to drive over the Connor Pass. Nevertheless. all of us were extremely happy with our private tour, which was reasonably priced, and highly recommend working with My Ireland Tour for your private tour of Ireland.

We took the deluxe Ireland tour. The places that we stayed were fantastic. The food was terrific. Every stop was enjoyable. There is so much to see and never enough time. The pace is fast but not rushed. There is a lot of walking. It is helpful to be in moderate shape. Some of the areas are very hilly. We had a great group of people on the tour. Everyone got along and we enjoyed each others company.

Fantastic experience! My husband and I went on the 10-day Deluxe Castle tour in mid-July and it was perfect. Our main concern was what the group dynamic would be - a bunch of strangers together on a bus for 9 days?? It ended up being great! Our entire group was 12 people; many of them told us of previous tours they had gone on with other popular companies where they were part of 50+ people, so there were two buses full of tourists getting on and off the bus at every site; sounds like mayhem and pretty impersonal. All of us were from the US, of all walks of life, with all different interests and experiences, but we were all eager to explore and see everything we could while in Ireland. We all had two seats to ourselves on the bus, so we could spread out as we pleased. It also allowed us to eat most breakfasts and dinners together which was a great bonding time.

A couple of weeks ago I got back from a family trip with My Ireland Tour. With the help of Kristel, we planned an itinerary that included visiting with family in Clonakilty in Cork, exploring areas where my mother's grandparents were born, as well as spending time Dublin, Killarney, and Westport ,great choice!). The trip was amazing in every way, the itinerary perfect. There were 27 of us ,3 generations, and everybody had a wonderful time. Our driver, Enda, was a big part of the success of the trip. Along with making us feel very safe with his driving, he was warm, accommodating, patient and took care of all of the details. He also made the impossible happen in the Rower when he found a ,kind and generous!, man in town who led us to a small side road where my mother and Aunts were able to meet a relative that they had never met and talk with her about all of their connections! It was beautiful. Another highlight was when we told Enda we wanted to go swimming on Achill island, and ,even though I think he thought we were a little crazy, he brought us to the most spectacular beach ,on Keem Bay, - despite the fact that it was not easy to get to. It was warm and sunny on the beach and we were all there together, with many of us swimming in the waves. It was a joy. We wanted it to be a trip of a lifetime - with three generations together - and that's what it was. Thank you to Kristel and to Enda for all that they did. I recommend My Ireland Tour without reservation.

My husband and I just got back from the 10 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour, we had a GREAT Time.There were 24 in our tour and we all got along great. Tony Mc' Goey was our tour guide and let me tell you he was the BEST, he was funny, knowledgeable, attentive and went way beyond what was expected of him. Ireland has been on my to do list for years and we finally did it and so happy we did. Talking to Kristel was great, she always got back to me if I had a question, we went for my Birthday so it really meant a lot to me. Every day we were on the bus listening to Tony and seeing wonderful things, I would tell anyone that asked give Eric and Kristel a call and BOOK, YOU WILL NOT BE SORRY, only thing I regret is that I did not do the north also since I was already there but we can always go back.

My family & I recently had the trip of a lifetime by traveling together in honor of my father, Joe Cobb in Ireland My Ireland Tour was the most amazing company to work with & I highly recommend their service. Kristel was our agent from start to finish & Patrick, our driver/guide, became part of our family!� We traveled with 4 kids age range from 7-13, & 6 adults age range of 39-75. Kristel & Patrick tailor-made our trip to suite all of needs. The hotels were all 5-stars & the Glasha Farm House was incredible. The trip was bittersweet & I believe we all left a piece of our hearts there. Thank you My Ireland Tour!!!

We were very pleased with our MyIreland tour. Well planned activities, beautiful scenery, good food, and nice hotels filled our days. Tom, our very knowledgeable and congenial guide, enhanced our trip with historical information on the sites we visited and his insights on current issues affecting the people of Ireland. We appreciate the extra efforts he made to care for us and his skillful driving on the tricky roadways of Ireland.

Absolutely fabulous tour. So glad I found your company. The 10 day Iconic tour was the perfect introduction to Ireland. The countryside was beautiful and the attractions were spectacular. Our driver, Brian, was a wealth of knowledge and very entertaining. The accommodations were lovely and the weather was great. I went with my daughter and was worried she would be the youngest; however, there was a great mix of people and even another mother/daughter pair! We were a .family. by the end of the trip. Can't wait to go back. Thanks again for a wonderful vacation.

The pictures do not lie. Ireland was absolutely beautiful and green and we had lots of sunny days. The trip was well organized to tour the highlights and our bus driver, Brian Rawlings provided much added commentary that really made the trip. The hotels were very nice. Having at least two nights in each was a lifesaver in terms of packing and unpacking. The food was authentic, plentiful and of great quality, though I was sorry we didn't get to sample the shellfish. I love scenery and history and we got plenty of both. I also enjoyed the insights Brian gave on Briexit and other political topics. Two in our party of four got bad colds and one in our party had to use a walker. Brian was so attentive and helpful to all of us. I would definitely recommend your tours for anyone wanting to see a lot of Ireland in a short time.

What a fabulous 7 day Ancient Ireland Mini-Group Tour, made even better by our tour guide, Harry Fisher. He was so knowledgeable, fun, interesting - he engaged with our group of 7 so well - a true Irish gentleman we had the pleasure to spend this week with. Everything on this tour was top notch - the accommodations ,a castle, 2 hotels and a .farmhouse., were fabulous, the coach with our own individual seats was extremely comfortable and provided great viewing windows, the itinerary was busy enough yet relaxing, and the tours fun and interesting. Would definitely use My Ireland Tours again and hopefully have Harry Fisher again as our guide!

We were in Ireland for the first time May 18th-May 28th on a private tour with My Ireland Tours. It was extraordinary!! Starting with working with Eric setting up a great itinerary, and then throughout the trip with everything going very smoothly. We were very satisfied with all of the accommodations and the itinerary fit well with our interests!! Huge appreciation for our driver/guide, Fergus. His knowledge of and love for Ireland was obvious, and he went above and beyond showing us around. We highly recommend using this company for your trip!

My wife Lynn Riley and I ,along with 2 friends, just returned for a wonderful 26 days in Ireland, built around the My Ireland Tour North and South Iconic Scenes of Ireland 15 day tour. I researched many companies before selecting this tour and was not disappointed. Both pieces of our tour had only about 22 people, not 35 or 40 like the others. Our driver/guide Tom Lavin was top notch..HATS OFF TO YOU TOM !!!!!! I recommend this tour to anyone ,especially my friends, who want to see the 'high spots' of Ireland. Kristel in the office was very easy to work with booking the tour and answering questions.

Tom Lavin is awesome! What a great tour! We did the Essential Ireland tour and Tom gave us so much history and his love for Ireland is contagious. We loved every minute of it and our hotel rooms were just right. Can't say what my favorite part was because all of it was wonderful but have to admit the Jameson experience was my favorite but only because I'm a whiskey drinker :, My husband recommends the Hop House 13 and found it a photographer's paradise. Our son loved all of the trip and looks forward to going back. We were fortunate to have such an awesome group of people on our tour and Tom blended right in. We will definitely recommend this tour and look forward to another tour of Ireland!

I would recommend the Deluxe Castle Tour that my wife and I took. We were looking for an adventure that was elegant, engaging, & which hit a majority of the main attractions that were on our bucket list. This tour provided that and more. You will stay in luxurious destinations, have ample free time to explore at your own pace, and be chauffeured across the Emerald Isle by a knowledgeable and delightful guide. If your dates are flexible, make sure you schedule your tour with their top guide: Tony McGoey.

We just returned from the 15 day Iconic Scenes of Ireland - North & South tour. Can't say enough wonderful things about Tom Lavin, our driver/guide. He went above and beyond to make sure all 22 of his passengers had the most memorable experience ever. He gave us an historical background of Ireland and all the places we visited with his unique style and sense of humor. Unfortunately, my husband was unwell during much of our tour but Tom made sure that he knew where he could wait for the group with a nice cup of tea if he didn't feel up to the walking.

My with wife Sandy and I thoroughly enjoyed the My Ireland Tour. Our accommodations at the various hotels were super. Our planned meals were great and there was plenty of delicious food. I personally gained five pounds. Ireland at this time of year was truly magnificent. The views were spectacular. We came away with some awesome pictures and memories. We made new friends and it turned out that two of them ,Ken & Paulette, live about 2 miles of us! What were the odds of that? The must notable thing I took away from the trip was our tour guide Tony. Tony, you made this trip for us. You are truly a great person with a heart of gold! You turned our tour bus into your personal karaoki machine. Your knowledge, and stories about Ireland were just great, although there was a lot of sad history. The people of Ireland were super. So polite. I would still consider retiring there regardless of the issues with your politicians, health care and tax structure. In America, we have our own problems. We would highly recommend your tour to others and Kristel made booking our accommodations easy. Love it, Love it, Love it.

I can't believe I am now just reviewing...but we had the most amazing trip in October. Everything was just perfect from start to finish! Throughout the planning process, My Ireland Tour ,Eric specifically!, created and recreated multiple itineraries so that every member of our group was accommodated. Our driver guide, Ger, was the most interesting fella ever, he had so much history and stories to share with us. He was a pleasure to spend time with, even .after hours. at the pub. We received multiple quotes for similar tours and My Ireland Tour was very affordable and offered superior, personalized service in my opinion. I would not hesitate to recommend to anyone planning a trip to Ireland in the future. So glad I trusted my gut on this one!

Amazing...as you can tell by all the reviews. I was a little reluctant to do a bus tour but so glad I happened to book it with My Ireland Tour. First and foremost Tony made everyone feel safe and comfortable. He definitely has a way with people that adds joy to the experience. One aspect I was not anticipating but enjoyed was hearing the history of Ireland and its people. All of the historical sites were interesting and beautiful to see. There is plenty of food to be had, opportunities to meet local people, purchase that sweater , hear traditional Irish music and experience pub life. Thank you to everyone who helped put this together.

I had the BEST time on this tour. I've wanted to go to Ireland for many years and finally decided to just go for it! My Ireland Tour was the perfect vehicle for seeing the place for the first time. Our tour guide, Tony, was entirely fun and informative. He sings and gives the most amazing facts about where you are and what you're seeing. I'd definitely use this tour company again, in fact, I'd take this tour again!

We recently took the Iconic Scenes tour and have nothing but praise for this tour company. It was the first tour I've taken and would not think of seeing Ireland any other way. Our guide Tony was so attentive, knowledgeable and funny. I traveled with my mother and sister and were accommodated very well in each hotel to comfortably share one room. The tour was run very smoothly and not too rushed. We feel we had a very good taste of Ireland and highly recommend this 10-day tour!

Kristel and the team at My Ireland Tour did a wonderful job of putting together a great trip through Ireland for us. We were a group of four that wanted a relaxing vacation with spectacular accommodations and wonderful food. That is exactly what we received. Our driver, Pat, was a perfect addition to the tour. He added expertise and stories that made our time in Ireland very special. We only had time to explore the southern coast of Ireland and will definitely contact My Ireland Tour again when we are ready to return to see the northern part of Ireland. Kristel is responsive to all questions. Her promptness in reply with a comprehensive plan was the reason we chose My Ireland Tour and she followed through from start to finish.

I cannot say enough about My Ireland Tours! Kristel was a joy to work with and she never failed to answer even my most basic questions. Complete professionalism from start to finish. From the itinerary to our drivers, Pat and Charlie, hotels, vehicle, site visits, and the overall welcoming we received, we couldn't have asked for a better vacation. I look forward to using MIT again in the future and no one else. The specific knowledge that the staff at MIT and our drivers hadto share with us helped us learn so much. Pat even helped us to arrange a 21st birthday dinner celebration for my niece and family by booking a dinner reservation for us at a restaurant he recommended. He also arranged for a dessert with candle surprise at the end of our meal. Pat never steered us wrong and went out of his way every day. Thank you to all who made our vacation a dream come true!

15 September 2016 • Deluxe Castle Tour
I just returned from the Deluxe Castles tour, with Tom Lavin as our driver and guide. The tour far exceeded my hopes and expectations. The castle hotels -- particularly Lough Eske and Ballynahinch -- were exquisitely appointed, and straight out of a Masterpiece Theatre setting. Exclamations of .I feel like I've just arrived at Downton Abbey!. were heard throughout the bus as we drove up and were greeted by the staff waiting for us outside of Lough Eske Castle Hotel. But, while the settings were beautiful, and the meals delicious, the full focus should be on what we learned and experienced under the tutelage and guidance of our escort, Tom. He revealed the .real Ireland. of today to us, step-by-step, and story-by-story. Tom is a man who loves his country and his people, and this comes through every word and gesture. We didn't just learn .about. Ireland, but .lived. it through Tom's eyes. While I thought I knew a great deal about the land of my ancestors, I had so much more to learn! Each destination was a new discovery, with the beauty I had expected, but also with the added dimension of meaning and context for the story of Ireland and it's people. The tour is carefully organized; nothing is repetitive, but every day is very full. We had an outstanding group of people on the tour, and made friends easily with one another. The small group size was a great advantage. I cannot praise the experience too highly, and especially give thanks and praise to Tom, who goes the extra mile for every individual. Kristel, who handled all of the arrangements, is warm, generous, and wonderful! Thank you, thank you, My Ireland Tour, for an experience of a lifetime!

We just returned from a 10 day trip through Ireland which now ranks as one of our top trips. Our itinerary was customized to accommodate the golfers and the shoppers in our foursome. The guys played 3 outstanding courses. We stayed at beautiful bed & breakfasts, great hotels, and a splendid castle! All tours, tee times, reservations were handled by Kristal and Eric. Our driver, Pat, became our friend, sharing his knowledge and stories!

He brought us to such amazing places and fun activities for all. We highly recommend Eric O'Gorman's company!

We took the Iconic Scenes of Ireland tour July 4-13 and our driver was Tony McGoey. Tony made this trip so amazing by visiting little sights and villages in addition to a great itinerary planned. The hotels were comfortable ,despite a construction zone in one but not their fault, and we really enjoyed the farmhouse B&B that we stopped in for lunch and also the time we had at each spot was just right. It was our first bus tour and I am glad we chose this for Ireland, because we saw so much more than touring on our own. Many many thanks for a wonderful visit, with many memories made and 1000+ pictures for the books!! Thank you!!!

My husband and I went on the Deluxe Irish Castle tour last month. We absolutely loved it! When we first began planning a trip to Ireland, we took our time researching different tours online. We kept coming back to the tours from My Ireland Tour and are very pleased with our experience with them. Right from the beginning, Kristel was great to work with in booking the trip. She answered any and every question and was always quick in responding to emails. In Ireland, we were picked up at the airport by our guide Tony, which really helped make the trip hassle free. Not all places offer airport pick up and drop off. The trip itself offered a wonderful variety of places to visit all through out Ireland. Our guide Tony was the absolute nicest and really made the trip enjoyable. He proved to be extremely knowledgeable about the history of Ireland and was always helpful. Another aspect my husband and I really liked about this specific tour is the free time you get at some of the locations we stopped at. It's a nice way to head out for something to eat or do some casual shopping on our own. This was also my first time taking a tour with a group of people and the conversations on the bus ride and at dinner was always fun and entertaining. Every aspect of the trip was wonderful. I have already been recommending My Ireland Tour to others.

We just returned from our Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour. I can't express how much our entire group enjoy the trip. We saw so many beautiful sites not only from the itinerary but other places along the drive. We learned so much from our wonderful driver/guide Tony McGoey. He was so informative from the everyday life in his country to the historic, plus he sings! What a treat for us. Everything about this trip went like clock work from the time we stepped of the plane in Dublin to the day we left. Thank you so much My Ireland Tour for making this the best tour we have ever been on.

I found My Ireland Tour on a fluke as I was trying to compare tour prices with other tour companies. We received a better deal going with a private tour compared to buses filled with 30+ strangers. Make you sure you do your homework and check with My Ireland Tour so you have all of the best options! You will not regret it! We sure didn't! We had a family of 4 and the private van tour was the BEST decision. I don't think we will travel to Ireland again any other way.

Just finished the Iconic Ireland tour. It was fantasticand I can totally recommend them to anyone. The small size of the group is much more manageable than the big tours with 50 people. Our hotels were all lovely. Most importantly, our guide, Tom was the perfect blend of knowledge, humour, patience and diplomacy. Tom gave us an insight into the Irish people, their history, and their everyday life now.

We have just returned from our customized 12-day tour of Ireland for our family of 5. We worked with Eric O'Gorman and his company and couldn't have been happier. The trip was kind of a last minute decision and after contacting Eric, he worked with us tirelessly and patiently to prepare an itinerary that incorporated our wishes as well as giving us advice and suggestions. I don't know how he did it, but within a week or two he had our trip in place including our awesome accommodations! Our driver/guide, Pat, was delightful. He was an excellent driver, knowledgeable about the country, answered hundreds of questions, had a great sense of humor and immensely helpful. He was like our own personal shepherd - making sure we knew where we were going, getting us to our next destination on time, suggesting restaurants, etc., etc.

We were very fortunate to locate Eric and his Tour Company. This was our first trip abroad as well as our first trip to Ireland in June 2015. Eric was extremely patient as he asked us what our goals were in Ireland and then developed an itinerary, which included our driver ,due to some health issues, we wanted to have our own driver/guide), our accommodations in a variety of settings, including bed and breakfasts and a castle. All our breakfasts were included and admissions if required were also included. Eric worked tirelessly while we worked and reworked our itinerary. We had ten leisurely days to spend with our driver and guide, Gerard, exploring this lovely country, which turned into a mystical adventure experiencing so many tastes, smells, sounds and beautiful sights of Ireland as well as meeting the wonderful people of Ireland. Ger was also a magnificent historian with a wonderful sense of humor and could rework our itinerary at a moments notice. Eric even included our accommodations and breakfasts for when we arrived in Dublin and the days before we left Ireland. It allowed for some down time and time where we could explore Dublin. We have so much gratitude toward Eric and his staff for this trip of a lifetime. Do not hesitate for a moment to place your next vacation to Ireland in his very capable hands.

Our trip was an absolute joy. We had the pleasure of meeting and bonding with an incredible group of fellow travelers. Our Discover Ireland Tour was everything we could have imagined and more. We feel so fortunate to have been on this particular tour, with such a fun group of people and to have had the great pleasure of being led by our wonderful tour guide,Tom! He made the trip so much more than just a bus ride through the countryside of Ireland. He was knowledgeableabout Irish history, past and present, very accommodating, answered all our questions, was happy to arrange activities the group wanted to attend, and put up with all of us for 10 days! I cannot recommend My Ireland Tour Travel Agency highly enough. This was a first class, marvelous vacation. Thank you for making our trip such an easy, pleasurable, memorable event. Ireland is a very beautiful country with the friendliest people in the world. Loved every minute spent there.

My husband, Frank, and I just got back for our tour in Ireland. Our guide/bus driver, Brian O'Rourke, was the most knowledgeable, helpful, kind, considerate, funny person ever! He went out of his way to make sure that everyone was taken care of, and if someone had a need, like a new charger for their phones, he tried to track one down! We saw many sites that, if we'd tried to do the tour ourselves, would have missed! It was an incredible lifetime experience! I'd love to come again, with the whole family!! You couldn't find a better company to do your trip with!

We spend an enormous amount of time planning this, our first trip to Ireland. We decided on October for cooler, milder temperatures and a slower time of year for tourism. We also wanted to take advantage of the Castle Tour package. The staff at My Ireland Tour were extremely helpful and responsive with our many planning questions right down to the clothing we should bring. We were kept busy during our ten days in Ireland, but not too busy that we couldn't stop and smell the roses and enjoy ourselves. Our tour guide, Tony McGoey was very knowledgeable, helpful, and made the trip memorable for the entire group, which consisted of 26 adults. There was definitely something for everyone and the food was great. I highly recommend this company for your Ireland travels.
