Hi Barbara! Thank you for this lovely review of the Grand Tour of Ireland. We're so glad you felt well informed from the day you signed up to the day you came home, and that your Group Guru kept everyone on time without anyone feeling rushed. Ireland's mix of nature, culture and history is hard to beat, and 10,000 steps a day is a fine way to balance those hearty meals! We'll be sure to pass your kind words along to your guide and to your driver, whose first-try parallel parking clearly made an impression. We'd love to welcome you back on another Approach adventure soon! The Approach Tours team

Thank you for this wonderful review of the Grand Tour of Ireland! We're thrilled our service stood out from the day you registered right through to the end of your trip, and that the Emerald Isle lived up to its dream-trip billing. Great people make a great tour, and it sounds like you had plenty of both. We hope you get back to Ireland soon, and we'd love to welcome you on another Approach adventure! The Approach Tours team

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience on the Grand Tour of Ireland, and for bringing your dear friend to see a country she'd always wanted to visit. We're so glad the hotels, your guide and your coach driver all stood out, and that having everything taken care of from Toronto and back let you both simply enjoy the sights and make great memories together. We're sorry you were unwell during the tour. If a traveller falls ill, they're never left to figure things out alone: you are supported from door to door by your Group Guru, and likewise they are supported 24/7 by our team here in Montreal, who help arrange care and the next steps. Emergency medical insurance is also included on every tour. We hear you that the insurance could have been explained more clearly, and we'll take that to heart. We're also sorry three of your lunches didn't suit your dietary needs; we've shared this with our team. Should you wish to discuss your experience further, please call us at 1-866-351-9545 or email travellersupport@approachtours.com. The Approach Tours team

Hello, and thank you for this wonderful review of the Grand Tour of Ireland! We're so glad your first organized tour felt like the right choice, even as a solo traveller, and that Gail was there for you when a nasty cold set in. We'll be sure to pass your kind words along to her and to Cathy, whose stories (and songs!) brought Ireland to life. From the Book of Kells to Galway and the Derry Girls mural, it sounds like you saw the very best of the island. All meals on tour are planned in advance for the group, and your note about menu variety is helpful feedback we'll share with our team. We're thrilled you've already booked your next trip, and we can't wait to see you again! The Approach Tours team
