Ireland Tours?
I'll be heading to Ireland next May for a wedding on DH's side of the family. I believe it's in Limerick, but I could be wrong. Anyway, DH and his family will only be there for a couple of days, but my SIL and I are going to stay an extra week or two and wanted to do a tour.
I did do a search on this board, but only came up with one touring company and we wanted to compare a few options. Has anyone done a tour in Ireland or know anyone who has and would recommend their company? TIA!

Re: Ireland Tours?
we went with Driftwood which is a more laid back, small tour option and we loved it ... if you're more adventurous, Vagabond is run by the same folks ... we did the 7 day tour with Driftwood and can't say anything bad (other than there were way too many midgets biting but Driftwood couldn't control that, lol) ... the hotels were great, tour guide was fantastic, got to see lots and we didn't have to drive ...

Re: Ireland Tours?
You guys are great! We're gonna check these out! I didn't think to look on Trip Advisor- good thinking!
We've been to Ireland before so we've seen some things but not others. When I went (for another wedding), we stayed with family the whole time so we didn't get to do some of the more touristy things- like we didn't drive the Ring of Kerry or go to Dublin or the Guinness factory or the Blarney Stone. Those are all things we really want to do.
I can't wait!!!
