Cosmos branded tour was very good, and had an excellent tour director and bus driver. The tour was very well organized, bus was comfortable and accommodations were good. I would not hesitate to do another Cosmos tour as compared to the more expensive Globus counterpart tour.

Driver, Chris and tour guide, Antoinette did above and beyond. They made sure we saw everything and had fun. It was fast paced but saw lots! Do the optional tours if interested. Do what you are able to do. Lots of moving, walking, and some time on bus to get to places.

Hotels were too far from town, too much time on bus and not enough town time, no hot water in one hotel, some hotel staff was rude, fire alarm went at 10:30 pm with no one around for instructions, seemed more concerned about driving by everything instead of spending time at places

Our tour director and driver were top notch!! The accommodations were at best average. Many were old and outdated and not easily accessible to attractions. Many of the optional excursions were very disappointing and the meals that were included again were average to subpar.

Note: Ireland and Scotland are not handicap friendly I do not need a wheelchair but am limited due to a back problem. I found Hotels with no lifts were not identified before booking restaurants had rest rooms down or up a flight of stairs there were no. I prefer Hotels in City limits when in a city I am willing to pay more I also prefer tours that stay 2-3 days in 1 location. In my opinion this tour was great but not necessarily friendly to disabled or older people. The tour guide knowledge was superior and it was good value for the money

Most hotels did not have air-condition, it was cool but not cool enough to sleep. Fans were provided, if asked for, made most nights bearable. A hotel I stayed in Scotland, before Edinburgh, was terrible! This hotel should be removed from the list. The room was not clean, bedding skirts needed to be replaced and the beds were really bad! I will not take another Cosmos trip.
