Irish Tourism Reviews

We have just had a magical 3.5 week self-drive tour around the whole of Ireland arranged by Irish Tourism. Linda was fantastic to work with as she crafted our itinerary and arranged our car hire, accommodation and gave us a comprehensive booklet of all the sights we could see. Nothing was a bother and I was really impressed with the service, the quality of the accommodation and the car. We had no issues whatsoever during the trip but it was comforting to know we could have called Irish Tourism for help! I would highly recommend Linda and Irish Tourism if you are planning to visit this magnificent country.

The team had it all sorted from start to finish. Car hire,accommodation and a proposed route all part of the service. Niamh is a star and kept us up to date prior to departure. The car was from a well known provider and the accommodation of excellent quality. The suggested route ensured we saw as much of Southern Ireland as possible in the 9 days we were away. We will certainly be back again to see the north

Gave us the trip of a lifetime. Extremely helpful customer service, very friendly, and great communication. Our trip to Ireland was so much more than we could have hoped for (or planned ourselves) because of Irish Tourism. Thank you!

I highly recommend Irish Tourism. This was my family's first trip to Ireland. Nuala was extremely helpful in planning our itinerary and booking hotels that would accomodate my sisters who have difficulty with steps and climbing. Every hotel was special. The daily itinerary was well planned. Having a "local" number for assistance was also great.

Linda Larkin from Irish Tourism prepared the perfect itinerary for our first family trip to Ireland. Everything exceeded our expectations and we had the time of our lives. Not one glitch. The accommodations were amazing, and the recommended sightseeing routes were fantastic. Pricing was excellent.

Our trip to Ireland was magical. I found Irish Tourism on-line and took a chance. I am so glad I did! We opted for a self driven tour. Linda Larkin arranged all of the hotels and the car rental. It was very easy. She was very helpful with all our requests and changes. The hotels/castles we stayed at were top of the line. She provided an itinerary of places to visit and stops to make along the way. It was super helpful in planning our trip. Ireland is truly magical!

Loved all the planning and prep work that was completed for us. Everything went flawlessly. We really enjoyed our driving tour!

Irish Tourism cultivated the perfect 2 week vacation for us. Niahm asked good questions and listened to what we wanted out of our time in Ireland. She offered various options and then booked all our lodging and transportation, including our excellent guide and driver David. It was magical and I didn’t need to plan anything.

To have everything booked in advanced - what a stress free way to travel. The hotels, the train passes and tour arrangments and private drivers...this was a trip of a life time without breaking the bank. All of the instructions were perfect and each time we were astounded at how easy and lovely each step of our Irish journey was!

Linda was very helpful and responded to our planning requests promptly and easily. Our accommodations in Killarney and Dublin were great, and the suggested, reserved tours were spot on. A suggestion to other 6 day travelers, we spent three days in Dublin and we would’ve changed that to two, substituting a day at a countryside site.

The places this company recommended were fantastic. They chose 3 Castles for us a Manot and hotels all with bfast included and delicious. Everyone treated us wonderful.

The company was very responsive in working with me on our planned itinerary. Stephanie Guina made our arrangements quickly and without a burden on our group. The transportation company used and our driver, Peter, were very efficient and the vehicle selected was comfortable and well accommodated for our group of eight golfers. The Titanic Hotel in Belfast and Grand Hotel in Malahide were excellent. We recommend the company search for another hotel in Portrush for future travelers.

Nuala put together a holiday plan for us for the number of days we had available which enabled us to maximise our Southern Island experience, prepare before we left with comprehensive trip notes, enjoy Irish hospitality, beautiful countryside and stirring history. I changed my mind several times along the planning journey. Nuala was very quick to reply and make changes where required, offering helpful advice which I was quick to take advantage of her We did have a solid amount of driving time most days, and would have benefited from at least two more days in our trip, however the number of days was our choice and we need to return particularly to the Ring of Kerry. The drive to New Grange was longer than we expected but was well worth it and a fascinating experience . Our only negative was that we had some difficulty with the debit card bank card we had organised for travel currency, particularly in smaller towns, and were forced to use our credit card which was an expensive conversion at times . We met others who had the same experience with debit travel cards. The car hire company also would not accept this card. Our accommodations were all in excellent central locations with parking available. The Irish Breakfasts were delicious and hearty. We had the option of eating in at each accommodation and if we were tired, or did not want to go out exploring this was a relaxing option. We visited many recommended pubs in order to experience Irish music and we were not disappointed by the quality of the music and the lively atmosphere it created . Unfortunately most of the music does not start until 9.30pm which, for older travellers, makes for a late night after a busy day of tourist activities. It was well worth organising our day and night around this special feature of life in Ireland.

Irish tourism did an excellent job on our trip actually our second time using them. They are very professional and I would highly recommend them. Especially Stephanie !

IrisTourism was just fantastic in excellently organising my recent trip around Ireland. I was delighted with the hotels they selected for us and their detailed itinerary for the road trip. Thank you

Stephanie was a great help booking our wonderful trip with 7 travelers from age 14 to 86. It was tailored to our every need. Loch Lein country house hotel was the BEST! I also wanted to relay an above and beyond experience at the Clayton Hotel in Cork. My daughter left her Nintendo switch in the safe. Lizzy at registration spearheaded the return. We received the device a week later at our home, all carefully wrapped in bubble wrap. We are very grateful for their extra service.

We just returned from a 10 night rail trip in Ireland and it was perfect! The 4 different hotels were great and we had no issues using the vouchers for tours, private drive to Galway and ferry to Inish Mor. Customer service was excellent even though we had to cancel 1 trip and had many questions. My daughter and I would recommend this company for anyone who wants help with rail and lodging accommodations but want a more independent experience than group travel.

We had the most amazing trip to Ireland. Irish Tourism/Stephanie put our trip together. She set up our car and lodging. She picked wonderful places for us to stay. The bed and breakfast places were so comfortable and welcoming. Breakfast was out of this world. The hotels were nice as well. There is no way we could have planned all this without Irish Tourism. I am so happy they planned our vacation. Every thing went smoothly and we had no issues. We look forward for to booking with Irish Tourism in a few years for another trip. Thank you!

Maria at Irish Tourism organised an 11 night fly drive trip round Ireland. Everything went flawlessly from picking up the car to the flight home. Interesting selection of hotels, all comfortable but varying in character so that every time you checked in there was something new. A very helpful guide to Ireland's attractions was provided free of charge. Definitely recommended.

I want to thank Nuala Sheedy for organizing our self-guided tour of Ireland. We loved everything about it--the people, the cities we stayed in and the accommodations. Special thanks also to David Kennedy, our driver. He went above and beyond duty to take us where we wanted to go and to show us around the various cities in which he gave us recommendations for restaurants and pubs. We very much enjoyed and appreciated our whole experience in Ireland! I highly recommend Nuala and choosing a tour with a driver. I don't know how we would have navigated those roads and enjoyed ourselves at the same time if we had driven.
