Good value trip, food in hotels good. Lack of information on places we stayed.No infomation available in Westport hotel. Insufficient thought and organisation on drop offs at places visited.i.e. we missed the Museum of Ireland in Castlebar as we were not told it was outside the town and we waisted time looking for it. Drivers need to be given basic information of where they are taking us.I appreciate they are not tour guides but further info.would have enhanced the holiday. Overall a very good trip.

The hotels used were fine. Some of the en-route stops were no more than shopping stops. The information was very sparse re journey timings, and what was on offer at excursion venues and stops. On the Connemara trip the vehicle speed was on a few occasions excessive for the road conditions.
