"Sisters Trip"
Jun 1, 2023Montana
Jolene was wonderful! She’s a friendly and professional trip advisor and arranger. She put together a 12-day tour of the Wild Atlantic Way in southwest Ireland for us. We’re happy to say that everything went smoothly and to plan, including picking up the rental car, the hotel reservations, the ticket vouchers for tours, the highlights to see along the way and returning the car. Jolene promptly followed up on emails, questions and phone calls before our trip and made sure everything was set up and in place. She made sure to cover all the “what if” questions before we left but we didn’t need any further assistance once in Ireland. My family and I would not hesitate to recommend Authentic Vacations because of the attention to detail and great customer service, especially from Jolene!

"Wonderful Ireland"
May 18, 2023Florida
Amber, Ireland is wonderful, and we’re having a ball. We got in to Kinsale late this afternoon and are taking a breather now to overcome some jet lag. When the town wakes up tomorrow, we’ll see it and shop a bit before going on to Killarney and Muckross. By the way, The Irish House Party was perfect. Fun, not loud and crass but classy and friendly, entertainment. We recommend it highly. Thank you for all you did to help us put this trip together.

My clients want to go back to Italy again and I will use Ellie and Authentic Vacations in a heartbeat!!

Jorie, well, we have returned from a most amazing holiday in Ireland. The car rental worked out wonderfully. Pick up and Drop off were a breeze. Driving to Clifden, we added Downpatrick Head as a site to see. It's BEAUTIFUL. Drove the Doo Lough Pass....Breathtaking! The trip was absolutely amazing. We absolutely LOVED our vacation and will definitely recommend Authentic Vacations to friends and family.
