Wonderful Irish vacation! Our Best of Ireland by Rail vacation was wonderful! We saw so much of the country, and visited so many beautiful and fascinating places! The trains were comfortable and the check-in process was simple. The accommodations chosen by Irish Tourism were perfect, within walking distance of the train stations and of places of interest and dining and pubs! Stephanie at Irish Tourism was so friendly and efficient, and made everything easy!

10 Day Best of Ireland Rail Trip We just came back from a fabulous 10 day best of Ireland rail trip organized by Maria. The planning process was stress free and we were able to modify it to our liking. Every detail was planned perfectly, we loved that the hotels were very central, and everything was within walking distance. The timing of the excursions and travel days was perfectly balanced with our free time too. Maria was always available to answer questions before hand, and help with some minor changes to the itinerary. I would highly recommend using Irishtourism to plan your Irish Adventure!

Linda Larkin at Irish Tourism was great!!! Linda Larkin at Irish Tourism was amazing. She listened to what we were interested in and provided us a perfect itinerary. Every so we made that she arranged was ready to go and the accommodations were perfect. Having never been to Ireland, Linda shared insight and made for the perfect holiday with thoughtful ideas of places to go and things to do. Her itinerary ideas were thorough with insight into just about everything that we'd pass on our trip so we could decide what to see and where to go.

My mom and I had a splendid time in… My mom and I had a splendid time in Ireland! Linda was my main point of contact, and she was able to curate a rail tour for me that both covered the scenery and the city life. The first leg of my trip was in Killarney. Our hotel was in the middle of town and our main event was the Ring of Kerry tour. Despite the weather (I am from California), the tour was magnificent! If you ever go to Ireland, you must travel the coastline! Our second leg was Dublin. I truly fell in love with this city, it is simply magnificent! Our accommodations was ideal, it was adjacent to Trinity College, right next to Merrion Square Park (there is an Oscar Wilde statue in that park) and not too far from Grafton Street. Linda set us up with the hop on hop off bus tour, prepaid Guinness Storehouse tickets, and tickets for the Irish House Party. My mother and I loved all of it, especially as we had incredible flexibility with exploring the city at our own pace. Linda provided me a packet with my reservation and voucher numbers and directions on how to use the Irish Rail, which was relatively easy to understand. I do not use public transportation much, but by the end of my stay, my mother and I became proficient bus and rail riders. Linda also provide a more extensive packet of things and places to visit in Killarney and Dublin. Since one week was not enough, I will return to visit Ireland one day and I will definitely work with Irish Tourism once again. Thank you Linda and Irish Tourism staff for all that you do!

The trip was very well planned out The trip was very well planned out. We very much enjoyed having tours/hotels/drivers arranged yet plenty of freedom to make other choices and not feel herded around as in a large group tour.
