These guests share their CIE Tours experience...
"Loved our tour, seeing the country and visiting all the towns! The tour guide was knowledgeable and fun! He went out of his way to make this trip enjoyable and memorable. We had stops all over Ireland and our "breaks" were always done at an establishment with entertainment, and shopping! All of our tour guides' tips in the cities we visited made us see more than we would have ever done on our own!" (Irish Classic Tour)
"This was the best tour I could have ever asked for. The locations, hotels, and experiences were amazing. I learned so much between beer tasting, Irish coffees, and Irish whiskey tasting. It was a trip of a lifetime. I was a solo traveler and made family along the way. My tour group was amazing, and we all now have a group text." (The Irish Pub Tour)

CIE Tours - on the Irish roads since 1932
CIE Tours was born on the road, with roots in Ireland’s national transit system. Early on, their trains and buses connected the cities, towns, and villages of Ireland. But soon, they began imagining new connections, with fellow travelers far beyond Irish shores.
Founded in 1932, CIE Tours extended a warm welcome to the world. They started with a handful of tours, crisscrossing the streets of Dublin, the lakes of Killarney, and the valleys of Connemara.
Over the years, they’ve helped millions of guests enjoy the vacation of their dreams. And today, they continue to find new ways to share their love of travel. While their heart remains in Ireland, their spirit of Irish hospitality now extends to England and Wales, Scotland, Italy, Iceland, and Spain.
