Words could not describe our truly unforgettable adventure in Ireland. Although the trip was only ten days short, each day brought great experiences and tastes of the Irish culture. The land was lush and perfect, a great change from the dreary terrain we are used to seeing. The trip was planned wonderfully and ran very smoothly. Our favorite outings were the picturesque Achill Island and the Ring of Kerry. Everyday brought something new to try and somewhere different to explore. Behind every stage, there is a crew. Don and Maureen Call were the best tour guides we could ask for in a million years. Not only did they put together a fantastic trip, they are the most kind-hearted and warm people we have ever met. Both of them knew everyone on a personal level and would bend over backwards to accommodate certain needs. We are proud to say we know them and we admire their genuinity and kindness."

The picturesque setting of a quiet beach
being lapped by the Atlantic Ocean,
The ever-changing shades of green,
rolling softly up the mountain side,
The breathtaking plunge from sheer cliffs
kissing the dancing waves,
The myriad hubbub of bellowing sheep
moving about the rocks and hill,
The sun  peeking through puffy clouds and mist,
forming endless rainbows,
The form and grace of an international city
new buildings stretch into the sky,
The history and drama of the oft laughing
and crying Irish people,
The shy greetings of first day tour people,
blossoming into life long friends,
The constant care and joy of being bathed
in hospitality and song,
All this and more is a Bridget Gallagher tour of Ireland."

We have been on group trips before, but never have we had such a good time of love and laughter.  We both felt worry-free and cared-for.We are sure that we saw things that are not on the itinerary of your average trip to Ireland. We left a piece of our heart and soul in the dear old sod and we look forward to another trip, but only with Maureen, "The Boss", and her driver, Brian."

Our recent trip to Ireland with Bridget Gallagher’s Tours was a dream come true for both the mother and daughter combo.  This extraordinary experience included typical tourist sites but included so much more.  From the wonderful B and Bs to the great restaurants to the places we traveled by bus, we never felt like we were on a typical tour.  We saw drop dead gorgeous scenery, learned the colorful history of Ireland and experienced the Irish people and the culture first hand starting with our hilariously knowledgeable bus driver, Brian.  Because the tour is smaller in numbers, travelers really establish a bond with each other.  Where else could we safely laugh and cry together.  Maureen Call and her husband, Don, touch base with everyone almost daily to see how things are going.  They genuinely want each member of the tour to enjoy Ireland and its entire splendor. Probably the greatest quality of this tour is the fact that the tour directors are sharing their passion, making this tour far more than just a business."

Just wanted to send our thanks and let you know how we felt about the Bridget Gallagher Ireland Tour we took last September. My wife Tricia, being Irish, has wanted to tour Ireland since we’ve been married. We decided that a planned tour would be the only way to guarantee that we would see as much of Ireland as possible during our visit. Since she had to wait (44) years to realize her dream, it was very important that the tour we chose was as perfect as possible. Your tour has more than fulfilled her dreams and expectations — needless to say, mine too. Having a smaller group of people on this tour made it a more intimate and special experience for all who were part of this fun group. Thanks to you two and Brian the “resident” bus driver/guide, we truly “saw” Ireland – its beauty, its history and its wonderful people. We saw it all. Your tour cannot be compared to the others we’ve been on. It was the personal touch that made it so different and made it so special for e veryone. With the group of wonderful people we were with and all the special touches you two and Brian added, this was like a vacation with close friends, to a wonderful, friendly country called Ireland. Thanks again for an experience we’ll never forget."

I have been blessed to have taken several tours to foreign locations, and my recent trip with Bridget Gallagher Tours was the most pleasant. I was truly impressed with Maureen and Don Call’s professional yet warm and gracious leadership. The trip was well organized with wonderful local activities and excursions, yet provided ample time for resting, shopping and personal sightseeing as well. I would not only eagerly recommend a Bridget Gallagher tour to others, but would definitely enroll in another for myself. The Calls are proud of their Irish heritage and share it with others as though everyone was part of their own family."
