Ireland Expert | Castles, Culture & Countryside

Ever since I can remember, I have wanted to go to Ireland. When I finally decided to make that dream a reality and set a date, I quickly realized I needed the help of a professional. Amanda came highly recommended by a friend, so I sent her an email, and she responded immediately. Amanda took the time to truly understand what I wanted. She asked thoughtful questions about my expectations, goals, and budget. I told her I only had two “must-haves”…a visit to the Cliffs of Moher and a stay in a castle. Beyond that, I was completely open to her suggestions. She handled everything, flights, car rental, and hotels, and provided a detailed, day-by-day suggested itinerary. The accommodations were fantastic, and our stay at Dromoland Castle was truly unforgettable. We rode in a horse-drawn carriage, and I even participated in falconry. My sister said she had never seen me smile so much. It was cold and rainy when we arrived at the Cliffs of Moher, but fate smiled on us as the skies cleared. It was magnificent. We laughed nonstop as the strong winds nearly knocked us over. It was an absolute highlight of the trip. We stayed in Ireland for six nights, arriving on Sunday, October 26, and returning home on Saturday, November 1. Amanda had warned me ahead of time that Ireland offers so much that six nights would feel short, and she was right. We stayed in a different location each night. If I were to do it again, I would definitely plan to stay two nights in each location instead of one. Many of the local shops close earlier than they do in the U.S., so by the time we traveled, checked in, and settled, some of the quaint stores were already closing. Thankfully, there was always a pub open! I will absolutely reach out to Amanda again for future travel. I’ve already recommended her to a friend, and she planned an incredible trip to Spain for her and her husband. Amanda is knowledgeable, responsive, and truly gifted at creating unforgettable travel experiences.

This is my second trip with Amanda and she did great! She planned a girl's weekend in Salem for me and my friends and the trip did not disappoint. Amanda helped us with transportation and found the perfect hotel in Boston near the train station to Salem. She scheduled a haunted tour and gave us a ton of recommendations for food and historical sites. The week prior to our trip, she sent me a detailed itinerary to include check in times and daily activities. I am already planning my third trip with Amanda to Alaska. I highly recommend her if you are looking for an organized and professional travel agent.

Amanda was so great to work with. She followed up periodically and created the perfect little itinerary for us to refer to prior to the trip. She was available quickly for any questions and check in help! She helped do the research and make things easy for me.

Amanda was absolutely incredible to work with! She planned our entire month-long journey across the globe, and every single detail was seamless. We began with our wedding in Scotland, and from there she coordinated our dream honeymoon through London, Paris, Barcelona, Rome, and Japan. From flights and hotels to excursions and the little touches that made each destination feel magical, Amanda thought of everything. We never had to stress—just enjoy the experience of a lifetime. This was the most important trip of our lives, and we couldn’t have asked for a better travel agent to make it happen. If you’re looking for someone who is attentive, organized, and truly cares about creating unforgettable experiences, Amanda is the one. We’ll be booking with her again for every future adventure!

Amanda took care of everything. Stress free and fun filled trip.
