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.

GBAbsolutely magical We had the best experience with Discovering Ireland Vacations! Everything turned out beautifully because of the great planning that went into it beforehand. Maria was very accommodating, allowed us to make customization that made our honeymoon extra special, and was a joy to work with. We can't wait to go back to Ireland!

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!!!!!

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!

CAOur 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.
