SEWe had a great time We had a great time . The trip was well organised and followed what we wanted to do .The car pick up and drop off was easy . Our car came with a Navigator which made our trips much easier although it did insist on taking us off main roads and down some very narrow lanes that were very picturesque but a bit scary if we met another vehicle . Our B and B’s were very comfortable and well located . Breakfasts were a highlight . From freshly made scones in Killarney to homemade soda bread in Galway and of course the black pudding everywhere , we were able to have a substantial start to each day. All of our hosts were helpful and enjoyed a chat ! We would have no hesitation in recommending Irishtourism to friends and fellow travellers

GBOur 10 Night Irish Dream Vacation - April 2024 We found Discovering Ireland Vacations in early 2022 while doing research. After reading all their reviews we were ready to learn more. We scheduled the 7 nights Irish Romance self-driving tour. Maria Lieb, mariaATdiscoveringirelandDOTcom, managed our trip from start to finish. Ms. Lieb was very informative and knowledgeable. She provided us several options and recommendations. She was flexible with our schedule, taking payments, and making rental car arrangements. We trusted her in planning our dream vacation. Excellent communication! We would highly recommend our self-drive package. Very easy to follow directions and itinerary. Our dream vacation went extremely smooth with no issues. Our package included: Complete Irish Breakfast and Room upgrades with all hotels. We stayed 2 nights in the Cliff House, 3 nights in the Ballyseede Castle, and 2 nights in the Dromoland Castle. We received an extensive day to day customized travel guide with suggested driving and walking routes. An Automatic Rental vehicle thru Hertz. 1 5-course Gourmet dinner at the Cliff House. Gap of Dunloe Tour. Private Falconry session. Medieval Banquet at the Bunratty Castle. Aran Island Ferry round trip ticket. We squeezed in a visit to Blarney castle and explored on our own every chance we got. In addition to our travel package, we reserved 2 nights in Dublin before the trip and reserved 1 night in Dublin after our car return on the last day. We booked our flights separately - Round trip from IAD to Dublin. Without asking, Maria provided us a complementary Dublin travel guide which was great! She also arranged our rental car pickup and return at Dublin airport. We would highly recommend Maria and Discovering Ireland Vacations for your travel needs. You will not be disappointed.

CAMaria Lieb From start to finish my experience with Maria was absolutely professional and positive. Maria asked all the right questions, was patient and accommodating when plans were changed. We chose to visit Galway, Dublin and Belfast and our hotels were top rate. The day trips to see the Cliffs of Moher and the Giant's Causeway was stunning. The booking for our trains from city to city was done for us by Maria and truly enjoyable. Lastly, I do plan on visiting again, this time the south/south west of Ireland and I know that I will work with Maria again. Thank you!!!!!

GBI had a wonderful experience with… I had a wonderful experience with Discovering Ireland. I wanted an itinerary set up for me to help lower the stress of planning for a trip to a country I had never been to. And I got just that and more! Having the trip booked for me freed me up to enjoy the moment and experience as much as possible while I was there. Maria went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed and the details were just right. I'd book again through Discovering Ireland and highly recommend them to friends/family.

GBMy wife and I celebrated our 28th… My wife and I celebrated our 28th anniversary in Ireland. Discovering Ireland did an awesome job setting up the perfect vacation. Marie Lieb did a great job planning out a great trip. The rental car, hotels and b&b were prearranged so we just showed up at each destination knowing everything was taken care of. Maria included a 30 page travel guide that suggested routes, restaurants, sightseeing options etc to guide us through our 8 day trip. I highly recommend this company to take care of all of your needs in planning a great trip.
