The 6 Day All Ireland tour provides a full experience of Ireland with a large variety of tours and activities. The tour guide gives great commentary, informative and interesting. The bus is very comfortable and the hostels, while basic, give great value: clean linen, good showers and tea and toast is available in the morning. The pace is good and plenty of opportunities to explore some towns at leisure. It provides excellent value for money and there are terrific eateries and pubs to enjoy some fun nightlife and great music.
