“Cara Group Travel made this an amazing experience for not only us, but for our son Sean. The entire trip was fantastic and very well planned out. Each step we were met with friendly Cara employees who made this a memorable trip for all of us. In particular, our bus driver Michael was exceptional. Friendly, polite and full of so much information regarding Ireland! Just a wonderful person who we will not forget! Ireland is a beautiful country full of warm people, exquisite countryside and the best pubs in the world. Thank you to all who were involved in an extraordinary experience!”

“I’m writing one more email to thank you once again for all your help on our wonderful Ireland and Northern Ireland trip. Bill and I, our son and daughter-in-law, and our friend Kathy all made some wonderful memories that we’ll be talking about for years to come. We made every tour even though we wanted to sleep in; we didn’t want to miss a moment of each experience. Our whole group was a mix of people of all ages (think we were close to being the oldest if not THE oldest!) and backgrounds, and the bests part is that everyone enjoyed spending time together. But our favorite person without a doubt was our Dennis O’Sullivan!! We were so lucky to have him as our bus driver; he kept us informed and in stitches on every ride. I sit here right now still chuckling at some of his stories and comments, his jokes and his questions! He is an Irish gem! I’ve enjoyed our visits. Thanks again and take care!”

“Thank you so much for all the time and effort done to make this such an amazing trip for everyone on the tour. The organization of first getting everyone to Dublin then the Great day trips in both Dublin and Belfast as well as the group events were perfect and met everyone’s needs. Dennis did such an amazing job of sharing so much of the history of Ireland with respect as well as humor. Then to be there to make sure everyone was on their way the last day truly showed to me how amazing the trip and its organizers really were. Thank you to you all for your attention to detail and your organizational skills. I have met some very special people on the trip and created memories that will last a lifetime.”

I thought you were extremely detailed, and we felt extremely valued which are two of the biggest things I value in my position.
