THANK YOU for a great experience! We have been on three trips with Royal Irish Tours and loved them so much we are considering a fourth! We have taken the Manor Royal, Kerry Royal and Scottish Royal tours. From the moment you arrive, you are warmly welcomed at the airport and the fun begins from there. These hard working people help make the trip so enjoyable. The hotels are nice, the meals are lovely. We met some very nice fellow travellers on our tour. Ireland and Scotland are very beautiful and we enjoyed ourselves thoroughly! Karen & Ronald We just returned from Ireland last week after doing the Shamrock Royal Tour. Having never been on a coach tour before we were somewhat hesitant about just what to expect. We needn't have been! From the very comfortable coach and hotel accommodations, the meals provided, the choice of sights to see and explore, and our marvelous driver/tour guide extraordinaire, Martin, we were thoroughly delighted with everything. Martin was extremely knowledgeable, personable and most importantly had a great sense of humour. We would not hesitate to recommend this tour!! A great way to see Ireland!! Cathy & John Recently went on the Shamrock Royal tour of Ireland. Was my most favorite holiday. Tour was amazing, everything was managed expertly, red carpet rolled out everywhere we went.
