Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I am currently on a 9 day tour of Ireland which was not cheap. This is my 68 th country i have visited and have never felt this way before … where i don’t want to get back on the bus.
The tour director is rude and condescending, I don’t appreciate being treated like a child.
The accomodation is out of town which means if you want to spend the evening in the city centre it costs a fortune to get a taxi or uber there and back . They don’t actually stop at a lot of places on the itinerary they just drive past.
Even before the tour started i was stressed as the company i booked though had my details however they did not give them to globus and i was getting threatening emails saying if i didn’t complete the paper work i would be turned away from the tour . Which was fully paid for. I was in a remote country and having trouble with the internet and logging on to the site. I was emailing them and trying to ring them multiple times with no one getting back to me .Holidays are meant to be a happy stress free time so if you don’t want a similar experience avoid Cosmos Globus

I'm very disappointed to see you are discriminating against people who choose not to be injected by an experimental 'vaccine'. These trails ar still at stage 3 and are ongoing until 2023. Having had covid I've built up natural antibodies and do not need to take the vacvine. I won't be booking with you this summer as this is totally wrong and a violation of my human rights.

My wife and I just completed a 14 day private tour with Annmarie and it was everything we hoped it would be. Annmarie had every detail planned out that covered our wish list for seeing this beautiful country and made sure we were taken care of at every stop.She is extremely knowledgeable of Ireland's history, geology, language and culture and was eager to share this information both at specific places we visited and of areas we were just driving by. Annmarie was also flexible in making changes to itinerary along the way to maximize our experience.My personal favorites were Cliffs of Moher, Dun Aengus on Inishmore island and Kylemore Abbey, but there were so many other great stops along the way that included amazing castles, historical churches as well as the spectacular views of the coastal areas.If you're looking to tour Ireland you should contact Annmarie, whether it's for a private or group tour, you can't go wrong.

As a member of our retirement group our latest 4 day tour with Annmarie to the sunny south east in Dungarvan was excellent. Based in Dungarvan we visited Kilkenny, Spike Island, Sure Valley Railway and many other places of interest. We really enjoyed the tour and we could not thank Annmarie enough for her help and professionalism.

Just back from another amazing 4 day tour put together by Annemarie of Ireland Discovery Tours taking in Dungarven and the south coast
This tour had many interesting trips scheduled which were enhanced by the availability of excellent tour guides. Spike Island was a real stand out feature of the trip and I would really recommend a visit. Its history is astonishing

Ireland Discovery Tours, under the excellent guidance of Annmarie, took our group of 42 retired folk on a four-day trip in Ireland South based in Dungarvan, County Waterford. The tour included a varied and diverse range of visits and guided tours in a totally relaxed and friendly environment.
For a professional stress free, safe and relaxing tour there is none better.

My wife and I visited Ireland last week by booking our tour through Ireland Discovery Tours which is owned and operated by Annmarie Carolan.
We were booked on her 4 day West Cork Tour as well as a private 2 day tour preceding the actual tour. We had a great time. Annmarie is an outstanding tour guide with vast knowledge of the history of Ireland.
Throughout our tour, Annmarie spoke of the history behind points of interests as well as the towns and villages we passed through our journey from Cavan through Birr, Cahir, Kinsale, Clonakilty, Mizen Head and finally Cork.
Annmarie also sang a beautiful rendition of an old Irish folk song called Dear Old Skibbereen.
Allen, our coach driver, handled the roads with expertise and safely guided us along the way.
Our vacation started out as strangers but ended as friends.
If you are looking to book a tour and unsure where to begin, we highly recommend contacting Annmarie.
