Honest insights from past guests on our Ireland tours

BrenDena B. | Traveled in October

Guided tours are the way to go! This was such an amazing experience and Collette is TOP NOTCH! From the Tour Director contacting us before the trip for questions, to the breath taking scenery and every detail in between. We got to see a lot and had free time as well! The Slieve League Cliffs were stunning as well as the Cliffs of Moher, but the best parts were the intimate, off the beaten path locations where we really got to live like a local. The Irish people are so warm and welcoming that we felt like Family!

The Best of Ireland featuring th...
Domingo S. | Traveled in October

I especially loved the stunning Irish coastal scenery, like rhe Cliffs of Mohr and the Northernmost ones. Kissing the Blarney Stone was a memorable adventure. And our guide, Michael Talbot, couldn’t have been more wonderful. His informative or amusing stories during our bus rides were great. One “extra” I would cut was the “pub entertainment night” in Derry. The food there was inedible, and the entertainment felt repetitive and went on too long.

Phyllis S. | Traveled in October

The hotels that we stayed in were very nice. All the meals provided were above average. The itinerary for the tour hit all the high spots. Our Tour Manager was good however it was very difficult to understand her on the bus when she was speaking into the microphone. When you spoke one-on-one with her, it was not difficult to understand her. She was very accommodating in switching the tour around so that we could go to the cliffs. She was always able to recommend good restaurants in the towns that we were at. Our final night at Kings Court, Cabra Castle was really very special

Fabulous tour!! Our guide (Eva) and driver (Dan) were the best! Saw so much of Ireland without feeling rushed. The mini tours within the tour were amazing. Each of the guest tour guides were excellent.

The Emerald Isle
Alan An | Traveled in October

The Emerald Isle tour was very enjoyable as it covered many of the best things to see and do in all of Ireland/Northern Ireland. Our tour guide Carolyn Anderson went extraordinary lengths to make the tour interesting, informative and enjoyable. our bus driver John was courteous, careful and caring to ensure that all of our luggage was transported each day. there were many highlights that will remain with us for a long time. The tour confirmed the company's name Back Roads as we certainly travelled roads that other larger vehicles would not be able particularly in the northern and western part of Ireland/Northern Ireland

This was a great tour, Zi thought it was a long drive to Isle of Iona but it certainly was worth it. Accommodation great except Malmaison in Edinburgh, very dark andno help carrying cases up two flights of stairs.

Ireland Tours — Highlights and Travel Tips

Whoever named Ireland the ‘Emerald Isle’ knew exactly what they were talking about. The island country is spectacularly green, full of stunning natural wonders to feast your eyes on. If getting outdoors isn’t quite your style, the capital city of Dublin has music, drink and friendly banter like nowhere else on earth. From daring cliffs and roaring seas to famous breweries and lively nightlife, Ireland has a little bit of something for everyone.

Tour Highlights

  • Eat, sing, dance and drink your way around Temple Bar (an area on the south bank of Dublin, not just a single bar)
  • Kiss the Blarney Stone at Blarney Castle for a shot at the ‘gift of the gab’
  • Learn to pour the perfect pint at Guinness Storehouse, where beer has been brewed since 1759
  • Face the strong winds for some incredible views at the Cliffs of Moher
  • Cross the Ha’penny Bridge across the River Liffey
  • Wonder at the beehive-shaped huts of the Skellig Michael monastery

Travel Tips

  • Keep in mind that the island of Ireland is made up of two countries: the independent Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland, which is part of the UK. Be prepared to use different currencies if you’re travelling over the border.
  • Be sure to pack rain gear, no matter when you travel. Ireland is generally wet, and some mountainous areas see up to 2000 mm of rain each year!
  • Consider renting a car to really take in the beautiful coastal views Ireland has to offer - but be wary of its narrow, windy roads.
  • Get ready to eat some hearty comfort food. Some must-tries are a lamb Irish stew, colcannon (mashed potatoes with cabbage or kale), and a full Irish breakfast.
  • While Ireland is an English-speaking country, it may be helpful to learn some Irish slang before you go. For example, something that is “good craic” is something entertaining or fun.
  • Be prepared for some swearing.
