Tour companies for Ireland

Any experiences that anyone would like to share about tour companies who do escorted tours in Ireland, both North and Republic? Any recommendations? Thanks.

My husband and I did a 14 night Ireland tour with Tauck Tours, in June, 2012. Ireland was absolutely fantastic, due to our great tour company. June is a great month to visit Ireland, due to the pretty flowers in abundance. We have been on four Tauck tours. Next month we are going with Tauck on a 20 day tour of Australia and New Zealand.

Pat, Have you looked at the Rick Steves Ireland tour? I found it to be exceptional and had a great time. Click the "Tours" link at the top of the page for more information. Cheers!

For a budget trip - I would recommend Gate 1 travel.
I've used them several times and find their tours to be a great value.

Thanks for the replies. I have looked at Steves. I know it would be good. And I've seen the Tauk tours. My wife and daughters went on a Tauk Tour. They had a great time. Both are a bit pricey. Too bad Steves does not offer a shorter tour. I'll check out Gate 1.

My very first overseas trip was Ireland with CIE tours. Had a beautiful surprise birthday cake waiting for me at dinner one evening - courtesy of the tour director. Had great fun, wonderful memories.
