Maria is the best! Maria did an excellent job of coordinating our travel schedules, hotels, and tours. The proximity of these made it easy to travel around Ireland. The vouchers and instructions were very clear and easy to understand. We found ourselves many times during our trip praising Maria’s thoughtfulness to detail. Our car driver Dennis was great going from Killarney to Galway by Knock. He was very attentive to us. The hotels Maria chose were great as well. When we return to Ireland the first thing we will do is contact Maria

Amazing introduction to Ireland We had a wonderful time and saw so much in our short 10 days. Tina chose great comfortable hotels that were easy walks from the train station as well as the town centers. Train travel is so relaxing and the ticketing process simple to understand. We had great drivers/guides for our bus tours who had many personal insights about the places we visited. We would not hesitate to book through Irish Tourism again.

My mom and I had a splendid time in… My mom and I had a splendid time in Ireland! Linda was my main point of contact, and she was able to curate a rail tour for me that both covered the scenery and the city life. The first leg of my trip was in Killarney. Our hotel was in the middle of town and our main event was the Ring of Kerry tour. Despite the weather (I am from California), the tour was magnificent! If you ever go to Ireland, you must travel the coastline! Our second leg was Dublin. I truly fell in love with this city, it is simply magnificent! Our accommodations was ideal, it was adjacent to Trinity College, right next to Merrion Square Park (there is an Oscar Wilde statue in that park) and not too far from Grafton Street. Linda set us up with the hop on hop off bus tour, prepaid Guinness Storehouse tickets, and tickets for the Irish House Party. My mother and I loved all of it, especially as we had incredible flexibility with exploring the city at our own pace. Linda provided me a packet with my reservation and voucher numbers and directions on how to use the Irish Rail, which was relatively easy to understand. I do not use public transportation much, but by the end of my stay, my mother and I became proficient bus and rail riders. Linda also provide a more extensive packet of things and places to visit in Killarney and Dublin. Since one week was not enough, I will return to visit Ireland one day and I will definitely work with Irish Tourism once again. Thank you Linda and Irish Tourism staff for all that you do!

Best of Ireland by Rail is a winner After deciding to travel by train within Ireland, we connected with Maria Lieb just four weeks before our arrival date. She was friendly and accessible. By both phone and email, she advised us in finalizing our itinerary, customizing the 10-Day Rail Tour into 13 nights. She booked the rail legs, hotels and single-day coach tours, all of which were great. It was a successful and memorable experience all around. We'll use Irish Tourism again!

The trip was very well planned out The trip was very well planned out. We very much enjoyed having tours/hotels/drivers arranged yet plenty of freedom to make other choices and not feel herded around as in a large group tour.
