It was a great tour for the time we had to spend in country.

Although it was a faced pace trip, we were able to see a lot!
My only critique is that we did not get enough time to truly explore major landmarks like the Cliffs of Moher, Giant's Causeway, Blarney Castle, etc. We seemed to al...
Because it was that good.
Wish we could have paid for them before hand instead of carrying cash -- I am sure it is troublesome for guides to track who is paid and not as well. Loved them all...
We ended up staying in East Kilbride instead of Glasgow so didn't really get to explore it as much as we wanted. Would recommend staying in Cardiff for two days - so...

Editor’s Take
Most trip reviews tend to focus on some or all of these 5 key areas, not all of which may be relevant to you: the tour guide, travel company, service level, country or countries traveled in, and the trip itinerary. Remember, just because you see a 1 star review doesn’t necessarily mean that person disliked the country.
When reading Ireland tour reviews, it’s important to bear in mind that it’s very common for not all meals or activities to be included in the base price of the trip. This is beneficial for travelers who enjoy having some free time, and like having control over their spending. However it can be a bit affronting for travelers who would prefer to have all activities and meals included, which means a higher upfront cost.
Negatively reviewed Ireland tours mostly lament that too much time was spent on the bus and not enough time at each destination. This is especially noticeable for tours that also visit Scotland, England, and Wales.
There is a lot to see and sometimes tour itineraries for the UK can feel stretched. Be sure to read the itinerary thoroughly to make sure the tour spends enough time in the places you’re most excited to see.
Favorable reviews for Ireland often comment on the tour guides ability to bring history alive, and the chance to enjoy local Irish culture in an authentic way.
