Trafalgar is a terrific company, with great guides and bus drivers.

Our tour guide took a group of 48 people from all over the world and from all kinds of backgrounds and made them feel like family as she entertained us with the history of her country. She even interjected personal stories that helped illustrate the impact of recent history on the average Irish citizen. Not only would I travel with Trafalgar again, but would try to have the same guide.
