“We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Ireland last week! The tours, personnel that transported us to and from the airport and hotels and the itinerary you selected for us were all wonderful. Having never been to Ireland before, I had been a bit concerned about making connections with trains and drivers. All of my concerns faded away when we experienced the professionalism of the drivers and commitment to making certain that we enjoyed ourselves. You did a wonderful job coordinating our schedule and making the best use of our time for this brief 6 day holiday.
Thank you for everything. I would not hesitate to recommend Specialized Travel Services to anyone. Further, I have already shared photos and stories of our wonderful trip with friends and colleagues and mentioned you by name as being instrumental to our great experience. Thank you again and my sincere best wishes for your continued success in the travel industry.”

“My husband and I just returned from a 2-week trip to the Emerald Isle and we have been telling everyone about the extraordinary itinerary that was planned for us. I can’t say enough about our experience with Specialized Travel Services. We traveled from Galway to Dublin, Kilkenny, Kinsale and Killarney before spending our last night in the Dromoland Castle! We were incredibly impressed by the warmth of the people, the countryside, the Cliffs of Moher, Aran Islands, Kilkenny Castle, Muckross House and The Ring of Kerry to mention a few highlights. The trip experience was beyond our expectations. Dromoland Castle was a perfect way to wrap up an exhilarating visit to Ireland – beyond luxurious. We’re missing our Irish breakfasts and evenings in the Pubs!!
A special thank you to Brian Fitzgerald who treated us like family and planned the perfect trip. Special thanks also to Pat Murphy, our 3-day private tour guide, both are two of the loveliest men in all of Ireland. Thank you to the team who made all our reservations – we reveled in every second!”
Sincerely,
A Happy Long Island, NY Couple”

“ We recently worked with Specialized Travel Services in planning our honeymoon as they came highly recommended by our wedding planners. We were more than impressed with them! They made our honeymoon so wonderful. All of the drivers were professional and so accommodating and helpful. A huge thank you to Eamon Hagerty. We had him as our driver for the majority of the trip. He took us to incredible places and taught us so much about Irish history. He also had great recommendations for places to eat and visit… he never missed, they were all incredible. It was a dream for us and we truly appreciated it. We will cherish those memories forever. We highly recommend Specialized Travel Services for your traveling needs.”

“My name is Kimball Wisler and my wife, Janice, and I just recently took a trip to Ireland with Specialized Travel Services. Our driver was Dr. Errol Sweeney. We consider ourselves so lucky to have had him. His driving skills are unmatched and he is one of the most pleasant human beings we’ve ever met. He was very informative and has a great sense of humor as well. Every day was a pleasure and he was a major part of it all. We were also blessed to only have one day of rain during our stay. The only sad thing about the whole trip was that it couldn’t last forever. We love your country- the people, the history, the absolutely breathtaking scenery- everything. We are getting old but hopefully we can get back again some day. I just wanted to let you know that we really enjoyed our trip and your employee, Errol, was a major part of it. I don’t know if your company gives out any awards or special recognition to your finest employees- but in the event that you do- please give Dr. Errol the best you’ve got. He’s one you do not want to let get away!
Go raibh maith agat!!!
Dia dhuit,
Kimball Wisler”

“I just wanted to pause and give a huge shout-out to Phil Smith, our driver last week. He made our trip spectacular. He went the extra mile and made fine tunings to our itinerary that were very much appreciated. He swapped our boat ride for the morning so we could visit an extra site in the afternoon. He found some holy wells for me along our route where we stopped and I tied cooties to the fairy trees. He added a loop through Burren County and I even saw two portals (dolmens). His knowledge of Ireland’s history was excellent and very informative.
Huge hats off to Phil. I look forward to another trip to Ireland with Phil as our guide.
Best wishes,
Judy”

“We just wanted to thank all 3 of you again for the tier one effort you put forth to make the investor trip a smashing success! The feedback was tremendous regarding the overall execution of the week. Many people commented that it was the single best trip that they ever went on. A female investor said just today said she and her group felt like celebrities because of the way they were treated. I can’t think of one snafu throughout the week and that is a tribute to your professionalism and commitment to excellence. The buses were on time, very comfortable and were manned with funny and charming drivers. The venue in Sneem was a beautiful set-up with delicious food. Everyone loved the gap trip, and you couldn’t ask for a better day out on the golf course. The attention to detail at the golf outing, in particular, with all the moving pieces, was really something to appreciate. In short, it was amazing and we are so grateful for everything you have done!!!
Thanks again for the premium effort!!
Best,

“My family and I used your service in Ireland from July 9 2022 to July 15 2022. My email is to share my experience with the service and our driver Paul McGlinchey. He truly made the experience so special. Paul’s knowledge of Ireland and its history was beyond impressive. My family appreciated his ability to know when we need down time on some of the long drives. We thoroughly enjoyed his humor and desire to meet all our needs. We are already planning our next trip and would definitely want Paul as our driver. Thank you so much for employing such an amazing individual. We can’t wait for our next adventure.
With much appreciation,”

Dearest Brian & Emma, I don’t know how to thank you both sufficiently! The trip that you planned for Eric and I, went above and beyond our expectations. We have made so many wonderful memories and made so many amazing friends! From the moment we arrived until the day (unfortunately) we had to leave, our experience was all that we could have hoped for and more. We loved each of our private drivers. Amazing guides—professional, personable, hilarious, and so very kind. I want to adopt them all and have them as my uncles. Pairing us with Brian Kennedy was brilliant. He kept us moving and we even went on a 5 mile walk with him one morning that was in a word- spectacular. What a great man. They all were. Truly. My heart is fuller for knowing them.
Most sincerely,
Jen Blough

Kieran and I send the extended team at Specialized Travel Services, a million thanks! We had an incredible trip March 2022 and we know that was in large part because of the services that your team provided. Kieran and I agreed that the only problem was not being able to stay a lot longer :). Ireland – the people, the places, food and culture did not disappoint one bit. We remain grateful for an experience that buoyed our spirits, especially after the past couple of years and we are eager to plan a longer return trip with a few more family members.
Warm Regards,
Katie & Kieran

Thank you for making our 25th wedding anniversary castle tour a great success. Your knowledge of Ireland, it’s history, and it’s motorways is very impressive. We felt safe and relaxed the entire time, even on the narrow cliff roads leading up to Sliabh League. What a beautiful place!
This was a trip we will cherish for the rest of our lives.

It was great to meet you in person, and your family as well!
We loved Kilkenny! Never would have known about it, and one of the highlights of the trip.
We will keep you in mind for our next Ireland trip, and please let me know if you ever get to Boston.

I am a travel advisor and tour leader who has worked with Specialized Travel Services to plan three 9-day group trips to Ireland. My favorite reasons for loving STS are their great knowledge of the many different tourism facets of Ireland, their ability to work with any price point, their unfailing kindness and patience, and their willingness to be flexible. I like creating unique, off the beaten path experiences for travelers, and STS cheerfully and patiently worked with me to find the itinerary and experiences that achieved that objective. I give them my highest recommendation as a destination management company for both travelers and travel advisors to work with.
