Your Home Away From HomeCIE Tours uses a variety of hotels depending on the itinerary. First class hotels feature a dining room, lounge, bar and comfortable rooms with many facilities.

CIE hotels typically are found in central locations or scenic regions and are shown in the tour information.
Stay in a CastleFor a royal experience, choose one of our deluxe tours where you can stay in 5-star properties including Ashford Castle or Dromoland Castle. Many other tours stay in 4-star castle hotels such as Clontarf, Cabra or Kilronan Castle, giving you the experience for a more moderate cost. We feature Bunratty, Knappogue or Cardiff Castle Banquets on a number of tours and all itineraries visit plenty of castles throughout Ireland and Britain.
Your Tour DirectorCIE's locally-employed tour directors are the envy of the travel industry. From the moment you land in Ireland or Britain, your tour director is there to welcome you, handle your luggage, drive you from place to place and give you a daily commentary. Tour directors make history and culture come alive and create a superb experience with daily doses of humour, information and assistance. All of CIE's tour directors are well trained in the background information of the places and incorporate this history into their narratives in a manner that is fun and easy to digest.
A Typical Day with CIECIE has created balanced and varied days of sightseeing with plenty of stops for taking photos, shopping, lunch, snacks and bathrooms. You never travel for longer than two hours without getting off the coach.

Food Glorious FoodEvery morning a full cooked breakfast is served in your hotel to get your day off to a good start. In hotels a table d'hote dinner is served. This is a 4-course meal with 2 to 5 choices for each course, followed by tea or coffee. Usually you will have one or two free evenings in Dublin, Killarney, London or Edinburgh where you will find a wide range of restaurants. Lunch stops are at self-service restaurants so that you can choose what you like and save valuable time for sightseeing or in towns where you can find a friendly bar and choose pub grub, casual dishes of many kinds.
Highlight & Theme EveningsAll of CIE's tours include a number of great evenings to enhance your holiday. You'll sample local foods and enjoy special entertainment. Depending on the tour you choose, you may attend a fun banquet in historic places such as Bunratty, Knappogue or Cardiff Castles. Then there are musical dinner/shows in Dublin or Edinburgh, pub evenings in Killarney, or a Highland ceilidh with great Scottish music in Nairn. These will add great enjoyment to your holiday, and remember, these features are included in the cost of your tour.
