Guest Reviews
"We booked the Scots Irish Tour for our honeymoon. Fourteen nights, three countries, and not a single detail was left to chance. Our tour director made sure no one was left behind and the itinerary was written out for us each evening. Breakfast included every day, dinner most nights. We got to see everything we hoped for."
"The highlights for me were the Cliffs of Moher, the Loch Ness cruise, the castle banquet — and so much more. Everything in my opinion was top notch from destinations to accommodations to food and entertainment. I would go on this tour again without hesitation."
"We stayed in 9 different hotels — a wonderful variety including one in a genuine castle. The Scottish guide was outstanding; his love for Scotland came through in every stop. The ferry crossing to Belfast was memorable, and Ireland picked up right where Scotland left off. An extraordinary trip."
