Treasures of Ireland Reviews

We rarely take bus tours but we’re very happy we did this one. Our Guide Betty was delightful, considerate, amusing, informative and being a local, gave us a valuable insight into Irish culture. Highly recommended to gain an appreciation of Ireland in a short time.

The coach used was rather poor and not as good as the one used in the Best of Britain tour the week earlier. One seat, (I think it was the second from the back, driver's side) had to be kept empty each day as the seat had been anchored too close to the one before and it was not comfortable to sit in. Also, the seats were not on a raised platform as ...read more the English bus' were, resulting in poorer visibility. The tour guide spoke a lot about subjects she knew about, but we seemed to pass a lot of towns, historical monuments etc, that were never mentioned but probably held a rich history. Our English tour director, Alan Drake, was far better than his Irish counterpart. I am grateful to Global Journeys for the assistance with my booking. I enjoyed the service provided and enjoyed my holiday.
