Our 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.

My 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.

Linda Larkin was the agent who arranged… Linda Larkin was the agent who arranged our 2 week self drive trip around Ireland. She was very thorough and responded to my emails quickly. All of the arrangements that were made (car, hotels and B&B's, tickets to various venues, printed itinerary) were excellent and conveniently located. She could not have made this vacation any more enjoyable. Thank you, Linda.

All our accommodations were great! All our accommodations were great! We were never disappointed with were we stayed. If we did this trip again we would choose to stay two nights in most places instead of one night. It was a little exhausting moving to a new destination and sightseeing everyday.

Our B&B's were great Our B&B's were great. The trip was planned so we did not spend our driving days on the road too long. We stayed across the street from a Castle, in an amazing Castle, 2 residential homes coverted to a B&B a short walk from the town center and a couple of hotels. The food and hospitality were great in every location. Many thanks, Maria, for helping us plan our driving holiday.
