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.

GBWell organised and fun packed trip to Ireland We had a wonderful experience exploring Ireland. This was thanks to Niamh at Discovering Ireland. She listened to our requirements and put together an Itinery that was perfect for us. It was flexible, seamless and everything ran smoothly from picking up the hire car, booking into Hotels and advising on places to visit. Her advice and guidance on our week spent in Ireland was faultless and we had an amazing time. We hope to visit again and would definitely recommend and booking through them again.

GBThoroughly outstanding… Maria Lieb did a thoroughly outstanding job for us (twice this year!) in arranging our self-guided tours of Ireland's breathtaking Wild Atlantic Way. Maria always communicated promptly about all details in a pleasant and professional way. She understood our plans and wants and was diligent in helping us realize them. I can't think of a better way to properly recognize her and her first rate organization than to have her help arrange our next visit, which she's already been assured we will.

GBGreat company; big shout out to Maria Working with Maria over the planning of our trip was so nice. She was very responsive to our questions and met all our needs with booking great places to stay (both in comfort and location). We were in great hands with her in arranging our car rentals, too. The B & B’S were lovely and had wonderful hosts. The entire experience was fantastic!

GBYou can trust Discovering Ireland Vacations! Greetings, This was our second time booking with this company. Maria Lieb was our booking agent for both trips. Both were self drive vacations, one for Ireland and the other for Northern Ireland that were both worry free and outstanding. She also booked hotel reservations for our follow on trip to Scotland. Maria's professionalism is unequaled!! She scheduled B & Bs, car, insurance and also excursions. Thanks Maria, you are the BEST!
