Our Clients Say

What Our Travelers Are Saying

44 verified reviews from our customers.

Thanksgiving in Galway 2025. Sixteen of us--grandparents, parents, and grandchildren flying to Dublin and then traveling by Celtic Vacations bus to Galway for the week. One group delayed a day due to limited air traffic controllers in Newark, but not a problem as Celtic Vacations dispatch a driver on Sunday morning. We visited Cliffs of Moher, Aillwee Cave, bussed along the Skyline Road in Connemara and then to Kylemore Abby, Bunratty, Fitzgerald Woodlands Resort in Adare, and so much more. It was a memorable trip and the grandkids are still talking about it and are asking Papa where we going next year. Profound gratitude to Eóin Patrick Cashman (Managing Director, CV), Paddy Boyce (our intrepid and patient driver), and Willie Grace (the fixer for any problem). Best wishes for Merry Christmas for all these folks and their wonderful team.

Thanks to Celtic Vacations, our 2-week chauffeured tour of the emerald isle was perfect in all respects. Being sure of our preferences, Eimear made thoughtful recommendations and then wove our choices into an exciting itinerary with just the right balance of planned activity and free time. Our driver, Kevin, was absolutely outstanding. His brimming knowledge and endearing personality elevating our experience far beyond our expectations.
